Use this procedure when its prerequisites apply. Confirm each required aircraft state before acknowledging the corresponding checklist item.

General

Use LNAV or VOR/LOC as required by the assigned VNAV approach. Establish the identified FAF and the correct along-approach distance before applying the 2-NM-before-FAF group. Distance to the airport is not an equivalent condition. Set the assigned DA(H)/MDA(H)-related MCP target using its applicable numerical value and reference. Before using the second-page condition Below 300 ft missed approach altitude, obtain its explicit interpretation. Do not substitute 300 ft AGL, radio altitude, or an inferred arithmetic rule. This is the supplied VNAV landing procedure. Use the assigned landing-continuation procedure after approach configuration.

1. Roll mode — Lnav or vor/loc

Select LNAV or VOR/LOC as required by the assigned approach. Verify the appropriate active and armed lateral-mode indications.
Expected response: LNAV or VOR/LOCVerification: Require the mode intended by the approved branch, not just an illuminated button.

2. At 2 NM before FAF: MCP altitude, DA(H) or MDA(H) — Set

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. At 2 NM before the identified FAF, set the assigned DA(H) or MDA(H)-related MCP target. Use the applicable approach datum and numerical value.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: SetVerification: Verify the correct target value/reference and the actual FAF-relative event.

3. At 2 NM before FAF: Landing gear lever — Down

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. When the stated condition is satisfied, select the landing gear lever DOWN. Verify the required lever position and gear indications.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: DownVerification: For DOWN, verify the required safe indications; for UP/OFF, require actual lever and gear-state evidence appropriate to that command.

4. At 2 NM before FAF: Landing gear indicator — 3 green

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. Observe three independent green/safe gear indications.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: 3 greenVerification: Require valid safe indications for nose, left and right gear using the applicable lamp decoding.

5. At 2 NM before FAF: Flap lever — 15

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. When the stated condition is satisfied, select 15. Verify the required lever detent and actual flap/slat configuration.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: 15Verification: Verify the chosen lever detent and the required actual flap/slat configuration.

6. At 2 NM before FAF: Engine start switches — Cont

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. Select both engine start switches CONT. Verify both rotary-switch positions. These switches are separate from the fuel/start levers.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: CONTVerification: Require both applicable rotary-switch states.

7. At 2 NM before FAF: Speedbrake lever — Arm

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. Set the speedbrake lever to ARM. Use the applicable lever-detent conversion and verify the required position.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: ArmVerification: Confirm the required lever detent and, for ARM, the separate SPEEDBRAKE ARMED indication.

8. At 2 NM before FAF: SPEEDBRAKE ARMED indicator — Illuminate

Condition: At 2 NM before FAF. Verify the distinct SPEEDBRAKE ARMED annunciator is illuminated after the arming step.
When: At 2 NM before FAF.Expected response: IlluminateVerification: Require the actual ARMED lamp, not merely a lever/control ratio.

Continue after this procedure

Continue to VNAV landing — part 2. The checklist adds no condition between these parts; the next part’s individual step conditions still apply.
