February 21, 200323 yr Hi everyone,I like to have the ability to hand fly the bird, so for 767PIC does anyone know where I can get a list of which pitch and power settings to use for various phases of flight?For example what should the pitch/power settings be for these phases of flight(did I leave any crucial ones out?)takeoffclimbcruisedescentapproachprecision approachnon precision approachWhen I first started simming way back I used the program ATP (anyone remember that one?) and the manual had a very useful insert on which pitch and fuel flow settings should be used for the various phases of flight. (The automatics were very limited on that program) I realize the settings will vary depending on aircraft weight. Can someone point me in the right direction?Thanks,Craigpilot wannabe
February 22, 200323 yr On takeoff aim for 15-18 degrees nose up. I highly suggest that you lean how to use the CDU/FMC for climbs, descents, cruise etc. Once you learn how to use it correctly, then hand flying will come more easy for you.Best Wishes,Randy J.

February 22, 200323 yr A good practice when handflying the 767 is to have the FD engaged and the appropriate autopilot modes engaged LNAV,VNAV ect... (autopilot cmd off) And just follow the flight director, I usually do this climbing to 10k and on descent once below 10k. Its a good idea to always keep the autopilot modes in sync with what you are doing manually.
