Operating Information

Stabilized Approach (Optional)

The Stabilized Approach feature provides aural annunciations to notify the crew of unstable conditions
during an instrument or visual approach to a designated landing runway. The feature monitors flap and
gear position, lateral and vertical deviation on an instrument approach, airspeed relative to the posted
V approach speed, and sink rate.
REF
For instrument approaches, there are two alerting windows based on altitude above the landing runway.
See Figure 3-1. The caution window extends from 1,000 FT down to 500 FT above the landing runway. A
single aural alert will be provided (i.e. "Speed") if stabilized approach criteria are exceeded in the caution
window. The warning window extends from 500 FT down to 100 FT above the landing runway. A double
aural alert will be provided (i.e. "Speed, Speed") if stabilized approach criteria are exceeded in the
warning window.
For visual approaches, or for approaches made with no approach loaded in the flight plan, a warning
window extends from 500 FT down to 100 FT above the landing runway. See Figure 3-1. A double aural
alert will be provided if stabilized approach criteria are exceeded in the warning window.
During circling approaches, the intended landing runway should be designated on the Landing Data page
on the GTC. The stabilized approach feature will provide visual approach alerting for both the initial
approach runway and the landing runway in use during a circling approach.
