Phil258 1 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Hi, I have the airbus extended updated to the latest hotfix. All runs well except the taxi checklist. If it starts at all its at the runway hold point after I have completed the taxi so to speak. It is then followed immediately by the before take off checklist which should be triggered at the runway hold point. So when should the taxi checklist start or what action do I have to perform to start it. I have tried clicking the taxi on the right mcdu and keying 1 when it's due ie after the pushback. None of these actions will start it. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmoreira 29 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Supposedly it starts automatically when you taxi faster than 10kts. Try this to see if it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLynch 15 Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 When waiting for taxi checklist to start, keep parking brake on for a few seconds before moving, then taxi above 10knots and it will start. Works fine for me all the time James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil258 1 Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 I've been taxiing above 10 knots. You sy keep the parking brake on is this after pushback? Maybe I've not been waiting long enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbd80 258 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 After pushback you need to apply the parking brakes. The Right MCDU should then say 'WAIT', shortly afterwards the 'After Start' checklist should commence. Once this is completed the Right MCDU should tell you to start taxi and get to a speed >10kts, at which point the 'Taxi' checklist should start.

Phil258 1 Posted January 4, 2013 Author Share Posted January 4, 2013 Thanks for the advice, after ensuring the parking break is on after pushback the taxi checklist triggers after a message to initiate taxi at 10kts Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
