Normal Operations Checklists
Cautions & Notes
Architecture - The 787 uses a ‘no-bleed’ architecture. Cabin air is supplied by electric cabin air compressors (CAC), not engine bleed packs. Wing anti-ice is electro-thermal. Engine anti-ice is the only bleed-air system. Hydraulic: L, C, R at 3,000 psi - L & R have engine-driven pumps (EDP) plus electric motor-driven pumps (EMDP); Center has two EMDPs plus RAT backup.
Taxi - Brake check at first movement “Brakes checked, pressure ___”. Both pilots have tiller controls on the 787.
Cruise - Normal cruise Mach 0.85. Service ceiling FL 430. The 787 composite fuselage allows a lower cabin altitude (~6,000 ft at cruise) for improved passenger comfort.
Landing - Speed brake auto-deploy on touchdown. Reverse thrust (translating cowl) at main gear contact, idle reverse at 60 kt. Stable approach criteria at 1 000 ft: on path, VREF to VREF + 20, sink rate < 1 000 fpm, correct config, thrust stabilized.
