A/P wailing/sirene

Recommended Posts

Hello captains

 

I'm flying the 777 for a couple of hours now. I am wondering if there is anybody who can tell me how the stop the A/P disengace warning. Mostly I fly on A/P untill about 1000ft before touche down. What I do is switching off the A/P bij clicking the A/P button or the A/P disengace bar and land by hand! The problem is that I cannot stop the sirene and most of the time I end landing after hitting Q key, the stop the sound. There must be a better way to do this. 

 

Can somebody help me?

 

regards Ronald

You're not supposed to turn off the AP with either the AP button, or the disengage bar. Use the AP DISCONNECT button on the yoke (you can also set up a key command to do this). Press this button once to disable the AP. Press it a second time to tell the system that the action was intentional (which also turns off the alarm). Please read the intro manual. This, and other common mistakes/misconceptions are addressed there.

 

 

In your aircraft options. Resetable siren (or something along those lines) I'm just at work but it is an option in your FMC.

 

While this stops the siren, this is not the appropriate action for stopping the wailer sound. How do you think the crews without the resettable siren disable the sound? Please read the intro manual for the proper solution, or see above.

Thank you for the quick respons!

 

as always RTFM!

 

Just a right click on the TO/GO screw does the trick! first click to turn it off and a second to kill the wailing!

And what does RTFM mean?
