September 23, 200421 yr Hello,I am wondering what is the shut down procedure if the plane is just landing and will be on the ground refuelling and picking up passengers for like 20 min. I already am fammiliar with the overnight "securing". In a video of a 767 flight, they stopped in Faro, Spain and it looked as if only the engines were shut down, they did another walk around, started the engines and were on their way. THey didn't show them programming the FMC though.Thanks in advance,Mike C
September 23, 200421 yr During a turnaround, provided the same flightcrew are doing both legs, the 'Securing Aircraft Check' checklist is omitted and at the beginning of the next leg the 'Cockpit Safety Check' checklist is omitted.Engines are still shut down and Shutdown checklist completed, regardless of length of stay of aircraft on the tarmac.
