Call out Minimums

Featured Replies

Hello,One Question.Watching a new DVD about Hapag Lloyd Express (HLX), a German low cost carrier witch operated some 737-700, you hear a few seconds before the call out

Im sure real pilots will be along to answer, but....Just off the top of my head, and having studied some charts last night, this call out might be approach MAPT, which can often be further up the glideslope than the decision point. At that point, if you dont have a good visual on the runway or you aren't at the right speed you go missed.Of course it could be something completely different.

Hi Stefan,There's a multitude of carrier options when it comes to call-outs. The call-out is evidently a carrier set-up for HLX and is similarily not simulated in our NG.I think Ian Riddell has written a post a long time ago about these call-outs. Or maybe it was on the beta mailing list? Anyway, do a search on the subject if you would like some more information. I'm sure it's out there. :-)CHeers,

"Approaching Minimums" is a common callout at 100 feet above MDA(H) or DA(H) when IFR.Floyd

Boeing offer many many options to their customers.Rgds,

I think the GPWS callout option diagram was removed due copyright issues, Matt.Approaching Minimums is triggered at decision height plus 80 feet. There is also another option "PLUS HUNDRED" which is triggered at decision height plus 100 feet.The Boeing Maintenance manual shows 17 height callout options, but there are probably more.Cheers.Ian.
