    1.1.2.3 Mutual Contro l

     A. The mutual control is a safety factor, using CROSS CHECKS.

    B. Control must be done by clear messages and information.

    C. To allow an efficient cross check:

    1. Each pilot should know the other crew member procedures.

    2. The procedure should be entirely and accurately followed.

    D. If an indication is not in compliance with the executed action, crew members mustcheck that the relevant system is correctly set and/or take any necessary action tocorrect the situation.

    E. Any pilot action, which modifies the flight parameters (flight path, speed or a

    system status), should be announced by a pilot and cross-checked by the otherone (efficiency of cross check is necessary for the flight safety).

    F. PNF  can be shortly busy (ATC message, weather listening, operating manualreading, procedure action, etc.) Any mode changed by the PF  concerning ADU,system or any noticeable items must be reported to the PNF when his attention isagain available.

    1.1.2.4 Procedure Methodology 

     A. A procedure always precedes a check-list for the considered flight phase.

    B. Procedures must be calmly done in a complete and precise way.

    C. Every pilot has to know the procedure’s items of the other pilot.

    D. Procedures are triggered by:

    1. On ground:

    a. Procedure is triggered by

    i.  CM1 or

    ii. Specific flight event

    2. In flight:

    a. Procedure is triggered by

    i. PF orii. Specific flight event

    E. PF and PNF task sharing must comply with following orders and announcements:

    REMARKS:

    1. In some flight phases, the procedure achievement is triggered by events and isautomatically done in a chronological way.

    2. It is not necessary to order the procedure because all the actions are alreadyachieved. PF will ask directly for the check-list.

    2.1.1 GROUND HANDLING / RAMP OPERATIONS SAFETY PROCEDURES

     A. PURPOSE

    1. To establish guidelines and procedures in order to ensure safe ramp operations andservicing of ATR aircraft

    B. SCOPE

    1. This procedure shall apply to all activities related to ramp and servicing operations of ATR aircraft.

    C. DEFINITION OF TERMS

    1. HOTEL Mode - exclusively used on the ground where the no. 2 (right) engine provides

    aircraft autonomy in terms of air conditioning and DC power supply with the gasgenerator operating and the propeller locked by a hydraulic brake.

    2. Tail Prop/Stand – is a safety device/precaution installed in the rear of the aircraftwhenever the aircraft is on ground/under servicing to prevent aircraft damage in the eventof an aircraft nose up attitude on ground, that could occur in case of incorrectimplementation of loading/off-loading procedure of the ATR aircraft.

    3. Free Fall – a condition where a certain body moves freely in the presence of gravity.

    D. RESPONSIBILITIES

    1. All personnel involved in ramp and servicing operations of ATR aircraft.

    2.1.2 ARRIVAL PROCEDURE

    2.1.2.1 Maintenance Personnel

     A. The Ground Marshall shall guide the taxiing ATR aircraft towards the assignedparking bay.

    B. When the aircraft’s nose wheel is positioned on the assigned parking bay stop bar,the Ground Marshall shall wait for the Captain’s signal that both engines areshutdown or, in certain cases, number two engine will be in Hotel Mode with enginenumber one shut down. The ATR 72-500 utilizes a PW 127M free spool turbineengine, Therefore:

    CAUTION

    Even after engine shut down, propeller residual rotation may occur.Exercise extreme caution w hen approaching the aircraft.

    C.  Always stay  in the pilot’s field of vision when the aircraft engines are stillrunning/propeller blades still in motion.

    D. Marshall shall then give the signal to the chock man to approach the aircraft andinstall the chocks on the nose wheel by approaching the aircraft towards its nose.

     As for the main wheel, approach the aircraft from its rear portion when installing themain wheel chocks. Main wheel chocks must be attached to pull-ropes for easyremoval. Give the signal to the Captain once the chocks are already installed.

    E. If a GPU is available upon arrival, Flight Deck Crew will initially configure enginenumber two for Hotel Mode. GPU will then be connected to the aircraft oncenumber two propeller has ceased rotation. Engine number two will then beconsequently shut down once GPU is online.

    F. If the tailwind component at the assigned parking bay is 10 knots or greater, HotelMode is not an option due to possible engine nacelle overheat. Flight Deck Crewshall shut down engine number two first. This will allow Ground Crew to approachthe right side of the aircraft and connect the GPU. Engine number one will be then

    shut down once the GPU is on line.

    G. The Marshall will signal ground personnel when it is safe to approach the aircraft:propellers have stopped rotation and aircraft beacon light is “off”.

    H. Secure aircraft propellers with its corresponding propeller straps only when theengine is fully shut down and propeller rotation has stopped. Installation ofpropeller straps is not recommended during QTA.

    I. If the number two engine is to remain in Hotel Model (which should be confirmedthrough verbal communication with the Flight Deck Crew), do not install propellerstraps.

    J. Install warning signage (“Warning, Propeller Area”) at the aircraft propeller zone.

    2.1.2.2 Ground/Ramp Personnel 

     A. Do not approach the aircraft until the cleared signal has been given by the GroundMarshall.

    B. Approach the aircraft Pax door from the left wing tip and walk aft of the wingavoiding the area adjacent the Pax door. The Pax door is a “free fall” type. To avoidinjury, personnel should not position themselves directly under the door prior toopening.

    C. Ground/Ramp Personnel shall retrieve the Tail Prop/Stand from its compartment at

    the tail section of the aircraft. Ground/Ramp Personnel shall give the Flight Attendant a “Thumbs Up” signal once the Tail Prop/Stand is installed.

    D. Ground/Ramp Personnel will install safety cones within the propeller area as wellas around the aircraft designated points.

    (see attached diagram on page nos. 14 & 15 for reference).

    E. Passengers must be escorted by the assigned Ground/Ramp Personnel from theaircraft to the terminal at all times. At no time will a passenger be allowed to intrudeinto the area restricted by the safety cones (wing/engine/propeller area).

    of Pax.

    G. Unloading of baggage at the forward compartment shall commence only aftercompletion of Pax deplaning and completion of rear cargo compartment unloading.This ensures that the aircraft will not tip over (nose up) while parked.

    H. The Tail Prop/Stand is only a safety device/precaution and should never be reliedon to prevent aircraft damage in the event on an aircraft nose up attitude onground.

    (see Tail Prop/Stand illustration/picture at page no. 13)

    2.1.2.3 Flight Deck Crew/ Cabin Crew 

     A. Flight Deck Crew will advise Cabin Crew if the number two engine will be operatingin “Hotel Mode” during Pax boarding/deplaning.

    B. Flight Deck Crew will announce through the PA: “Doors may be opened” after theseatbelt sign has been switched off. Cabin Crew may then open the Pax door.

    C. Opening of the service door shall be advised by the Captain via PA.

    D. The service door should not be opened if the aircraft is in Hotel Mode, withoutpermission from the Captain. The Captain shall determine and advise if prevailingwind conditions permit (non-standard procedure).

    E. Prior to deplaning Cabin Crew will advise passengers to comply with Ground/RampPersonnel instructions in order to avoid the aircraft restricted area (wing, engine,and propeller).

    F. After opening the Pax door, Cabin Crew will wait for the “Thumbs Up” signal fromthe Ground/Ramp Personnel that the Tail Stand/Prop is installed.

    G. Deplaning of Pax will only commence upon installation of Tail Stand/Prop andsafety cones. Cabin Crew shall control the deplaning of Pax.

    Note: Maximum of 7 Pax shall be allowed to deplane at a given time.

    2.1.3 AIRCRAFT SERVICING

     A. All personnel working in and around the aircraft should always assume that the engine isalways running (hot area condition). Refer to page no. 9 for the aircraft exhaust temperaturecontours.

    B. When approaching the aircraft carrying long tool rods or other equipment, the equipmentmust be positioned horizontally to avoid possible contact with blades.

    C. Personnel should never walk or park equipment within the operating arc of a propeller. Avoidthe marked propeller area on the aircraft and zones isolated by safety cones

    (see diagram on page no. 9).

    C. An aircraft with discharged batteries will be unable to start its engines even if GPU/ExternalPower is connected.

    2.1.9 HOTEL MODE

     A. Hotel Mode, available on the right hand/number two engine only, is exclusively used on theground to provide aircraft autonomy in terms of air conditioning and DC power supply with thegas generator operating and the propeller locked by a hydraulic brake.

    1. Aircraft refueling/de-fueling is prohibited during Hotel Mode operation.

    2. No personnel may intrude into the right/number two engine/propeller area during HotelMode operation.

    3. One Flight Deck Crew Member should always be in his respective cockpit seat duringHotel Mode Operation.

    CAUTION: Hotel Mode should not be utilized if the aircraft’s Tail Wind Component is10 knots or greater. It is the responsibility of the Flight Deck Crew toalways monitor outside meteorological conditions.

    4. Power Levers shall be positioned only at the Ground Idle detent. Hotel Mode operationwith the RH Power Lever not at the Ground Idle detent position is prohibited.

    5. Normally, the aircraft service door should be closed prior to starting engine number two inHotel Mode. If the cargo door is still open, the cabin access door and flight deck doorshould be closed in order to aid in cabin/cockpit cooling.

    6. Aircraft wheel chocks should be in place in case of propeller brake failure.

    7. On arrival, if a GPU is available, Flight Deck Crew will initially configure engine numbertwo for Hotel Mode. GPU will then be connected to the aircraft once number two propeller

    has ceased rotation. Engine number two will then be shut down once GPU is online.

    8. On departure prior to push back or taxi out (power-out procedure), once the aircraft is inHotel Mode, Ground/Ramp Personnel should standby for the Flight Deck Crew commandto disconnect the GPU.

    9. A tailwind component greater than 10 knots will result in a high probability of NACOVERHEAT. Also, anticipate possible tailwind component during pushback with turns. Inthis case it would be wise to release the PROPELLER BRAKE prior to the turn.

    10. For DEPARTING  aircraft, if the tailwind component at the parking bay is 10 knots orgreater:

    a. Obtain relevant clearance from ground control and /or ramp control for start up.

    b. Advice ground mechanic/marshal that the start sequence will be ENGINE 1 first and

    at the bay.c. After ENGINE 1 start, have the GPU removed if connected.

    d. Start ENGINE 2 with PROPELLER BRAKE OFF.

    11. For  ARRIVING  aircraft, if the tailwind component at the parking bay is 10 knots orgreater:

    a. Shut down sequence will be ENGINE 2 first.

    b. PROPELLER BRAKE/HOTEL MODE use is forbidden.

    c. At the parking bay, if available, wait for GPU to be connected prior to ENGINE 1 shutdown.

    2.2.1 AFCS

    2.2.1.1 ADU and EADI

     A. Mode selection is achieved by acting on the corresponding P/B on the AFCS controlpanel except for ALT SEL mode and GO AROUND mode.

    B. Simultaneous armed modes are limited to one lateral mode and two vertical modes.

    C. Therefore vertical armed modes are working in the following priority sequence:

    1. ILS GS ARMED2. ALT SEL ARMED

    D. Any change on the ADU from an armed mode (white) to a capturing mode (star) orfrom a capturing mode (star) to a captured mode (green) has to trigger a mutualacknowledgement of the FMA (Flight Mode Annunciation) by the crew. PFannounces the new FMA and PNF confirms with a response of “Check”

    E. In all situations, both CM’s must be aware of all selections or switching and maintainsituational awareness throughout the flights. It is mandatory that any selection madeon the ADU, course selector, heading bug, NAV or VHF or ADF frequencies,DH,MDH be acknowledged by both CM’s

    2.2.1.1.1 With FD and AP Engaged

     A. All mode changes should be called out by the PF e.g.

    1. “GS star”

    2. “VOR star”

    3. “ALT white”

    4. “LOC green”

    B. PF may set AP by himself or ORDER TO PNF 

    C. AP engaged, PF acts on AFCS

    D. Under normal circumstances; if the PF is flying the aircraft MANUALLY,all selections on the AFCS/GNSS shall be done by the PNF

    E. When AP is engaged, all track and navigation changes on AFCS areperformed by the PF with the following method:

    1. When the PF has completed his action, he informs the PNF by usingthe word  at the end of his call out.

    2. PNF checks the mode displayed on FMA and/or ADU and if correctannounces .

    F. GENERAL PHILOSOPHY:

    1. All “…SET” are done via ADU by PF if autopilot engaged, or PNF ifdisengaged.

    2. All “CHECK” are done via FMA. Any FMA status change has to beannounced by the PF.

    G. If the PF  has a heavy work load, he may request the setting of the AFCS/GNSS from the PNF.

    H. A climb or descend action must be done with whole following sequence:

    1. Select Alt sel2. Select and adjust vertical mode (usually IAS for climb and VS for

    descent)3. Adjust eventually Np and power.4. Change altimeter barometric setting and compare5. Select speed bug

    I. IAS mode is normally used during climb (to avoid any stall due to highaltitude/low aircraft performance). Basic Pitch mode may be used inturbulence and above 10,000 feet for passenger comfort and ease of inflight services. Recommended pitch is 4 to 5 degrees. When using basicpitch mode, a minimum speed should be set on the Speed Bugdepending on whether the aircraft is in “normal” or “icing conditions”,

    High Bank/LNAV or Low Bank. For small level change during cruise withhigh speed; VS mode may be used. During descent, VS mode is mainlyused except in emergency descent (refer to Emergency DescentProcedure).

    J. In case of simultaneous setting, only one announcement can be used.

    K. ALT white appears only when a vertical mode is armed and the aircraft isclimbing or descending toward the preselected altitude.

    L. When GA P/B is depressed, autopilot is automatically disconnected.

    2.2.1.1.2 With FD only and AP Disengaged 

     A. AP disengaged, PNF acts on AFCS on PF request

    B. All track and navigation changes on AFCS are performed by the PNF onPF command.

    C. PF flies the A/C and adjusts required power. All other selections orswitching in the cockpit are requested by PF and performed by PNF.

    D. When AP is disengaged, heading and/or altitude ATCinstructions/clearances are commanded by the PF and set andannounced by the PNF. This ensures proper crosschecks. All flightparameters (speed bug, altimeter setting) are set by both pilots after PF’srequest.

    E. GENERAL PHILOSOPHY

    1. PF orders the action by starting his sentence with the word “SET”

    2. PNF informs PF after performing the action, concluding his sentenceby “SET”

    3. PF announces “CHECK” after checking FMA and/or ADU

    2.2.2 FLAPS OPERATION

     A. For system use in normal operations, any setting change will be performed through mutualcontrol concept:

    1.  PF orders the system action

    2. PNF performs the action and announces the configuration when setting is in compliancewith the system indicator

    B. Flaps maneuvers are always performed by the PNF under PF order. PNF checks the speed(by announcing “Speed Checked”) before each configuration change then performs the taskand announces the new configuration.

    C. Select new speed only when the new configuration is obtained, during deceleration.

    2.2.3 LANDING GEAR OPERATION 

     A. For system use in normal operations, any setting change will be performed through mutualcontrol concept:

    1. PF orders the system action

    2. PNF performs the action and announces the configuration when setting is in compliancewith the system indicator

    B. Gear maneuvers are always performed by the PNF under PF order. PNF checks the speed(by announcing “Speed Checked”) before each configuration change then performs the taskand announces the new configuration.

    2.2.13.1 SOPs / Reminders 

    1. Log/Check in properly on your flight duty days on the check in sheet provided atOCC.

    2. Pilots on IOE/RQ should present their grade slips/IOE forms to their TRIs forproper review/documentation prior to flight assignment.

    3. Properly log aircraft discrepancies on the Maintenance Portion of the AircraftTech Log 

    4. Properly complete the Aircraft Tech Log prior to terminating your flight. Write up alldelays with respective delay codes and remarks for further clarification. Determine

    if delays require a separate Journey Report.

    5. Completion of the Aircraft Tech Log is normally the duty of the First Officer but isthe responsibility of the Captain. All information entered should be COMPLETE and

     ACCURATE

    6. Flight Deck Crew should log only one “snag” per maintenance entry/sequencenumber on the Aircraft Tech Log. Multiple “snags” on one sequence is not properand will cause difficulty in reckoning required maintenance action and rectificationinterval.

    7. Return aircraft charts/documentation to their proper place/sequence after use. Advice the turn-around crew if certain charts are to be left out for their convenience

    ( example: RPLL/RPVM Approach Charts).

    8. For ATR Flight Deck Crew operating out of Mactan, Cebu; to avoid late transmittalof ATR AFL/Techlogs to OCC-Manila Flight Dispatch, Pilots are reminded to dropby our remote flight dispatch office in Cebu station after flight duty. The FlightDispatcher / Station Officer will photocopy and send the AFL/Techlog to OCC-Manila within the day. With this, we achieve an up-to-date daily operationalsummary thru ARMS and fuel reports made by our Fuel Analysts. Include remarkssuch as Route Qualification, IOE, License Check, etc. on the AFL/Techlog.
