Cockpit Chronicles - Practicing takeoff and landings in a 737 (with Video) {Gadling}
Jun 23rd 2009 9:44AM Cool video!
A couple of quick questions, if I may...
1. What is the beep/buzz heard right after the "Stand 'em up!" callout? Is this something from the FMC alerting throttle movement or something else?
2. From what I've read (mostly on a.net), the TO/GA switch is frequently mentioned. Is selecting TO/GA not an option at this stage of landing, i.e. is TO/GA disabled after there is weight on the mains? I was just wondering how this would be integrated with the manual throttle movements of "Stand 'em up" and "Push 'em up."
Thanks!

Jul 9th 2008 1:41PM Being somewhat of a gadget fiend, I usually travel with one of my handheld GPS units. I use a Magellan eXplorist 500 primarily for geocaching, but will also use it for navigating around an unfamiliar area.
I rented a TomTom Go for a road trip to Arkansas a few weeks ago and loved it!
Bring on the high-tech fun.
