    In today's video, you see what an Airline Pilot check during flap retraction.
    There are two main things that you need to understand in order to get the most out of this content:
    1. Speed Trend Vector: This will indicate to the pilots if the aircraft is accelerating or decelerating. You will see a green arrow coming out from your Airspeed indication. The Speed Trend Vector indicates where your speed will be in the next 10 seconds.
    2. Flap Maneuvering Speed: On the right of the Airspeed Tape you will see Green numbers, these numbers indicate the flap maneuvering speed for that specific flap setting. This is important because you cannot fly below the maneuvering speed unless you have a higher flap setting.
    In the video, we are going to take off, climb to 1000 Above Aerodrome Level, and then we will accelerate to the minimum clean speed.
    In order to start the flap retraction, you need to make sure that the speed is above the flap maneuvering speed and that the speed trend vector is positive.
    So, in order to retract the flap from flap 5 to flap 1, you must be above flap 5 maneuvering speed with a positive speed trend vector.

    Hi pilotclimb!
    First of all I want to thank you for your channel, because it has been a great aid for me during my ATPL ME IR training.
    I have recently been accepted on the MCC APS mentored by Ryanair (🥳) and I wanted to ask you if you could please do a more technical video about MCC and CRM than the ones you already have in your channel, that are really good but may be you could enter more into technical details, anecdotes and so on?
    Grachie mille !!

    Great video as usual commander, I have a question though why do you wait till you reach the acceleration altitude to engage the Autopilot? Doesn’t the FCTM encourage pilots to engage the A/P as soon as practicable after the takeoff at 400ft RA?

    One more amazing video, thank you Captain! A question: as we know; acc.to fctm, immediate turn after take off is advised with take off flaps with bank 15 below V2+15 or with t.o. flaps bank 30 above V2+15. Thats fine. What about if we will need to make a turn while flap retraction? Do we need to consider bank angle while below next flap man. Speed that we are below it during retraction? Or as you have explained trend vector and flap retraction speed already protect us?

    • @PILOTCLIMB
      @PILOTCLIMB  2 роки тому

      I'm glad you like the video!! The bank angle limitation only applies if the speed is below V2+15, you can bank more with no problems while retracting the flaps.

      avoid retracting flaps whilst turning..you will notice the amber" moustache" coming down to meet you and could get intermittent stick shake.This is particularly so at high density airport take offs and especially on a hot day. Follow your AFM it clearly states what you need to do. Also avoid engaging VNAV modes before you are settled on your climb and on LNAV (which can be engaged at 400 ft minimum.

  • @burtonlee706

    Why I saw some 747-400 sim videos show that the pilots retract the flap, say flap 5, at the indicated flap 5 mark on the airspeed display, instead you may retract to flap1 on the 737?

    • @PILOTCLIMB

      As long as you have a positive speed increment indicated by the speed trend trend vector...

  • @Kommondan
    @Kommondan 2 роки тому +1

    Isn’t it safer to wait till your actual speed is above the minimum flap maneuver speed before retracting on schedule rather than using the speed trend vector over the actual speed?

    • @PILOTCLIMB
      @PILOTCLIMB  2 роки тому

      If you monitor the parameters mentioned on the video you are 100% safe. If you wait however, you are less efficient.

    for flaps 1 to flaps up in this video, what if there is a speed restriction to limit speed to 200 kts for turn? do we still retract from 1 to up or just maintain flaps 1 until completion of turn to increase speed above flaps up speed?

    • @SimplEver01
      @SimplEver01 Рік тому

      We can keep and need keep, due to restriction limit speed, in case of 200 kt restriction you will be below flaps up manoeuvring speed, that’s why you can’t retract flaps fully, after passing restriction you can make bug up, accelerate with trend and then retract to flaps up.
      I think Pilotclimb will agree with this.

    Boeing DOES NOT SAY ABOVE but AT V2+15 (white bug and speed increasing). I never move the flap lever exactly AT but that's what Boeing says. Boeing also says: Gear Down/Flaps 15 and observe Gear green light before selecting flaps to 15. I might be the only pilot in this galaxy who observes the THREE GREEN LIGHTS before touching the flap lever. Many times in the simulator, they ask me what am I waiting for and when I show them the book, I listen to thousand of excuses from DOESN"T MATTER to it's a Boeing mistake. Nobody seems to remember that the gear may not show 3 green lights and if this happens, the gear configuration will sound and you'll be doing your checklist with lots of drag unless you override the checklist, increase your speed and retract the flaps to 10, 5 or up.
