high stall speeds on pfd during approach

Featured Replies

Hi there,  Firstly thanks all your work in developing this brilliant 777. One small issue i have noticed. Every time i approach an airport the stall speed indication is 160 - 170 knts with 30 degrees flaps,  forcing me to landing at quite high speed. I am  unsure why this is so as i am sure this is not normal the actual aircraft. Thanks for any help you can give me with this issue.

Thanks ,  Simon.

Are you overweight or close to max landing weight?

170 knots flap 30 reference speed sounds like you might be near maximum fuel.

 

For reference a full 7 hour trans atlantic eastbound flight I flew the other day took about 20% of full fuel capacity to arrive with an hour reserve.

 

Proper fuel planning, not 100% fuel in the tanks and go. Full tanks = Fly for 16 hours or land at 160 knots.

the aircraft needs to know its correct weight enter the GW in the INIT REF page, if you have already done that then you must be flying heavy
