    TRAINING Phase 1 à Bounce Avoidance

    Information: Emphasize on avoidance


    - of high sink rates
    - late flare
    - pitch inputs during flare and before / during touch down

    • “Landing”was sole training item in “Line Check Topics 2011”


    • TRIM Chapter “Landing the MD11”is redesigned
    • Simulator Training is configured based on FOQA results of MD11
    landings and MD11 operator meetings

    TRAINING Phase 2 à Bounce Recognition and Reaction

    Information: Emphasis on
    - no pitch inputs during touchdown
    - immediately “fly away”from the ground

    • “Line Check Topics 2011”à what, if a hard landing / bounce happens


    • TRIM Chapter “Landing the MD 11”à reaction on bounce / hard
    landing implemented
    • Implementation of all recommendations and results from MD11
    operator meetings

    TRAINING Phase 2 à Bounce Recognition and Reaction

    Training:

    • SIM Refresher Recurrent Training Syllabus No 24 (Mar-Nov 12)


    Pure manual flying mission à including bounced landing training
    (bounce initiated by IP)

    • In every SIM Refresher training Syllabus since then:


    manual flying / landing is part of training –including Bounces

    • monitoring results of this training concept with FOQA

    TRAINING Phase 2 à OGAS
    Landing Condition:

    • Either 1 of the main landing gear struts compresses: 10 s timer starts (system
    armed)
    • If thereafter both MLG struts are fully extended, advisory light ON
    • One of the MLG struts compress again, advisory light OFF
    • The timer reset for each subsequent strut compress - extend cycle

    Takeoff / Climb / Cruise / Descent Condition:

    • The advisory is off during taxi and takeoff run as long as one MLG is on
    ground.
    • During the takeoff run as soon as both MLG struts extend following rotation,
    the timing circuit will enable and the advisory will illuminate for a period of ten
    seconds then extinguish

    Go-Around Condition:

    • If a go-around maneuver is performed after initial touchdown, the system will


    illuminate the advisory for a period of ten seconds (then extinguish) from the
    time both gears transitioned from compressed to extend.
