| Engine Synchronizer |
OFF |
 |
For descent it is normal
to throttle the inner engines fully back and leave
the outer engines at 6500 RPM.
The outers can be throttled back more if speed is
creeping up, particularly under 20000ft, but a fair
amount of RPM is needed to keep the pressurization
under control.
The Cabin Mass Flow gauges should always be in the
white 'normal range' section for pressurization
to work properly. |

|
| Fuel Crossfeeds |

| With the centre pumps
off and the crossfeeds closed, the engines are being
fed direct from their respective wing fuel tanks. |

|
| De-icing |
As Required |
 |
If temperatures are in
a range where ice could be a problem, de-ice should
be used.
Structural de-ice and engine de-ice is on here.
Pitot heater and fuel heaters are also included
in this check.
If icing conditions could be present and any of
the above systems is off, the checklist will show
a cross. |

| Req Cabin Alt |
2000 or Less |
 |
| Cabin Alt |
Check Reducing |
If you are expecting
to be holding before approach, it may be best to
set required cabin alt of 2000.
I know I'll be going straight in for landing so
it's right down to zero.
If the airport is at a higher altitude, set the
eqivalent value. |

|
| Altimeter |
Set |
 |
Set the altimeter pressure
for the destination airport.
You can get this pressure from the COM radio by
tuning to the airport ATIS or the Control Tower. |
