Hi, I suppose that the trigger event for the FO's shutdown checklist start, is to set parking brakes at the destination airport. But what if for any reason, I am told to hold short before crossing a runway, and it lasts for a long time due to traffic landing or taking off for example. If I set the parking brake (which it's done in real life I think), the FO will start his SD CL. And I don't want him to setup the aircraft for shutdown, as I need to taxi again. How to prevent this ?

Hi Stephane,

 

Only way to do it would be to use the arrow button to ensure you are 'not' in "PRE-SHUTDOWN" mode.

 

So in the situation you described, I'd skip the mode forward to "Shutdown", then when you're ready for shutdown, move the mode back to "Pre-Shutdown".

 

Cheers,
