Cruise Climb

The cruise climb page displays data for a cruise climb to a new altitude.

MOD CRZ CLB is automatically displayed during cruise if a higher cruise altitude

is entered on the CRZ page.

During VNAV operation, execution initiates a climb at climb thrust and cruise

target speed to the new altitude.

The VNAV climb mode is active until reaching the selected altitude. The mode

then automatically changes back to cruise.

Early Descent

Early descents are initiated from the DES page. Once an early descent is executed,

VNAV transitions to the descent mode and cruise features are no longer available.

For a path descent the DES NOW prompt will not be displayed until a descent path

is established. Once executed, the autothrottle adjusts thrust to maintain 1000 feet

per minute until intercepting the descent path.

For a speed descent, the autothrottle retards to idle and pitch maintains target

speed.

Selecting and executing the DES NOW prompt initiates a VNAV descent of 1000

feet per minute at ECON speed. Upon reaching the planned descent path, VNAV

transitions to maintain the planned descent path.

Selecting the SPD DES page and executing the DES NOW prompt initiates a

VNAV descent at idle thrust and target speed.

Waypoint

WIND

Used for entry and/or display of the true winds at the cruise waypoint identified

on the same line.

Entry may be via the keyboard, or propagated from the CRZ WIND entry on the

PERF INIT page.

The CRZ WIND value (075°/45 is depicted) propagates to all cruise waypoints

(ABC to GHI is the depicted cruise segment).

If no CRZ WIND entry was made, the FMC assumes 000°/000.

A keyboard entry has priority and propagates to all down path cruise waypoints

(an entry of 080°/140) at DEF is depicted). The entry must be executed.

Any entries propagated from the CRZ WIND entry are displayed in small font.

Keyboard entries are displayed in large font.

Crew entries of forecast winds (or default 000°/000) are automatically biased with

the actual wind computed by the FMC when within 100 NM of a cruise waypoint

and within 2000 feet of a cruise altitude. Biased values are not displayed.
