(4) APU Operation. 
(5) Engine Gravity Feed. 
(6) Engine Shutdown and Driftdown Check: 

FMC operation Aircraft performance. 

(7) Engine Relight. 

l. Descent. Select one of the following test 

cases:

taining recommended speed profile and note 
fuel, distance and time. 

(2) Cabin Depressurization/Emergency De-

scent. 

m. Medium Altitude Checks. Select one or 

several of the following test cases:

aircraft at 1.4 Vs, establish 1 kt/sec

2

decel-

eration rate, and check the following— 

(a) System displays/operation satisfactory. 
(b) Handling characteristics satisfactory. 
(c) Stall and Stick shaker speed.

(b) Wheel requirement to maintain bank 

angle. 

(c) Slip ball response, satisfactory. 
(d) Time to turn 180

°

. 

Roll aircraft from 45

° 

bank one way to 45

° 

bank the opposite direction while maintain-
ing altitude and airspeed—check the fol-
lowing: 

(e) Controllability during maneuver. 
(3) Degraded flight controls. 
(4) Holding Procedure (check the fol-

lowing:)
