Preflight setup

Select an E-Jet variant and a short route. Use current charts. The London City–Amsterdam route shown here is an example, not a current clearance.

Controller setup

Create an E-Jets controller profile. Remove generic master-battery and alternator toggle bindings that conflict with it. Calibrate both throttle axes in the EFB.

Fuel and payload

Load both through the EFB. Compare zero-fuel weight, fuel and takeoff CG with the manifest.

Route briefing

Check the database cycle on NAV IDENT. Brief the runway, initial altitude, departure, route, arrival and missed approach against current charts.

E-Jets version 1.0 introduced the custom FMS and autopilot with VNAV. Earlier videos, checklists and beta advice may describe different behaviour. Record the installed version before troubleshooting.
