Normal Procedures Chapter NP
Electronic Checklist Operation (747-8) Operation with the electronic normal checklist is the same as the printed
normal checklist except that, there is no need to read aloud or visually
confirm items that are complete (green). For the BEFORE TAKEOFF
and LANDING checklists, the PM announces “___ CHECKLIST
COMPLETE,” the PF visually confirms that the CHECKLIST
COMPLETE indication is shown, and announces “CHECKLIST
COMPLETE.” Closed loop (sensed) checklist items change from white to
green when the action is taken. The PM is responsible to check off any
open loop (not sensed) item and to verify that all closed loop items are
green. See Chapter 10, Flight Instruments, Displays, for a complete
description of the electronic checklist system.
Checklist Content The checklist has the minimum items needed to operate the airplane safely.
Normal checklists have items that meet any of the following criteria:
• items essential to safety of flight that are not monitored by an
alerting system, or
items essential to safety of flight that are monitored by an alerting
system but if not done, would likely result in a catastrophic event if
the alerting system fails, or
• items needed to meet regulatory requirements, or
• items needed to maintain fleet commonality between the
747-400,777, and 787, or
• items that enhance safety of flight and are not monitored by an
alerting system (for example the autobrake), or
• during shutdown and secure, items that could result in injury to
personnel or damage to equipment if not done
Checklist Construction When a checklist challenge does not end with “switch or lever”, then the
challenge refers to system status. For example, “Landing Gear...Down”,
refers to the status of the landing gear, not just the position of the lever.
When a checklist challenge ends with “switch or lever”, then the challenge
refers to the position of the switch or lever. For example, “FUEL
CONTROL switches...CUTOFF” refers to the position of the switches.

Taxi NP.21.38
Airport Map Display 747-8
The ND airport map display is intended to enhance crew positional
awareness while planning taxi routes and while taxiing. The system is not
intended to replace normal taxi methods including the use of direct visual
observation of the taxiways, runways, airport signs and markings and
other airport traffic. Prior to taxi, NOTAMS and airport charts (using EFB
terminal charts or paper) should be consulted for the latest airport status to
include closed taxiways, runways, construction, etc., since these
temporary conditions are not shown on the airport map.
Note: Crews must avoid fixation on the display or distraction from
primary crew duties while using the airport map display.
Crews must use direct visual observation out flight deck windows as the
primary taxi navigation reference. Use the ND airport map mode to
provide enhanced positional awareness by:
• verifying taxi clearance and assisting in determining taxi plan (both
• pilots)
• monitoring taxi progress and direction (both pilots)
• alerting and updating the pilot taxiing with present position and
upcoming turns and required stops (pilot not taxiing).
9
In flight, the ND airport plan mode may be used to aid in runway exit
planning and anticipating the taxi route to the gate or parking spot.
Note: During takeoff and landing, low map ranges may cause the
airport map position to jump, rather than to move smoothly.
Note: GPS position must be available to use the ND airport map mode.
747-8F
• both pilots verify that the correct airplane position is in the FMC
and the ND airport map display shows correct placement
• brief applicable items from airport diagrams and related charts to
include the location of hold short lines
• ensure both crewmembers understand the expected taxi route
• write down the taxi clearance when received
• an airport diagram should be readily available to each crewmember
during taxi
Initiating Takeoff Roll 747-8F
• if cleared for takeoff before or while entering the runway, maintain
normal taxi speed. When the airplane is aligned with the runway
centerline ensure the nose wheel steering tiller is released and
apply takeoff thrust by advancing the thrust levers to
approximately 45% N1. Allow the engines to stabilize
momentarily then promptly advance the thrust levers to takeoff
thrust (autothrottle TO/GA). There is no need to stop the airplane
before increasing thrust.

747-8F CAUTION: Precautions must be taken for:
• Jet blast up to 700 feet (220 m) behind the aircraft.
• Snow and ice at the edge of the taxiway that can be ingested by the
engines.
• Slippery taxi surfaces.
• Airport noise restrictions.
When both of the following exist, do an engine run-up to minimize ice
build-up: C
• OAT is 3°C or below
• Visible moisture (fog with visibility of one statute mile (1600 m)
or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals, and so on)
Use the following procedure:
Check that the area behind the airplane is clear.
Run-up to a minimum of 40% N1 for at least 5 seconds duration at
intervals no greater than 60 minutes.
Note: Operation in icing conditions may result in engine vibration
indications above the normal operating range during ice
shedding. If engine vibration indications are available and
high engine vibration indications occur, run-up to 55% N1
or higher for at least 20 seconds duration.
If takeoff is not completed within 120 minutes total taxi time (including
taxi-in, taxi-out, and ground holds), the engines must be inspected
according to the AMM before takeoff and, if needed, manually de-iced.
