MD-80 Temporary Record
Flight Manual Continental TR 02-01 01/22/02

RECORD OF TEMPORARY REVISIONS
Temporary Revisions are issued by Flight Operations Training as the need
arises. Information contained in Temporary Revisions is of a time-critical
nature, which requires issuance earlier than the next formal revision. This
information will be incorporated in a formal revision at the earliest
opportunity, or will be canceled if the information becomes obsolete.
This record page will be updated with the issuance of any Temporary or
formal revision. The reverse side of this record provides a List of Effective
Pages applicable to all Temporary Revisions designated as “In Effect.”
Remove and discard the previously issued Record of Temporary Revisions
and insert this copy. File attached yellow page(s) adjacent to existing white
pages as indicated by the page information located at the top of each page. Do
not discard affected white pages until instructed to do so by permanent
revision.
Yellow Temporary Revisions should remain in this manual until such time as a
new record page lists them as “Canceled” or “Incorporated.”
The following “Status” terminology is used:
In Effect - Identifies that the revision contains current and pertinent
information which is not otherwise covered in the Flight
Manual. Temporary Revision should remain in the manual.
Incorporated - Identifies that appropriate information has been
incorporated into this Flight Manual. Temporary Revision
should be removed from the manual.
Canceled - Temporary Revision is no longer in effect. Remove from
the manual.
Temporary Revisions may be obtained from Flight Publications, Qualitron
Building, IAHQT, Room 206C.

INTRODUCTION
General
The purpose of this manual is to provide Continental Airlines flight crews with
a document which serves both as a training aid and as an inflight tool for
handling emergency and abnormal situations.
Included in this introduction is an overview of the organization and procedures
of Sections 1 through 5 and a detailed discussion of the standard formatting
devices used in developing all normal, abnormal, and emergency checklists.
Flight crews are expected to be familiar with these formatting devices and to
be prepared to operate under these guidelines on the line and during simulator
training.
CRM
Effective Crew Resource Management (CRM) can substantially improve
safety in line operations. Technical proficiency, knowledge of aircraft systems
and adherence to standard operating procedures continue as the foundation of
aviation safety. Effective CRM should also help a crew achieve safe
conclusion of the flight when abnormals, emergencies, or other problems
occur. Continental Airlines is committed to fostering a high level of CRM
skills. The practice of effective CRM is expected behavior among all
crewmembers.
Pilots should routinely utilize effective CRM skills as discussed during the
Crew Coordination Concepts (CCC) workshops. All crewmembers are
expected to build strong CRM skills, so that each pilot can contribute fully
during both normal and abnormal line operations. Industry studies have
shown that most airline mishaps were attributable to poor CRM. Failure to
follow standard operating procedures, failure of non-flying pilots to monitor
the flying pilot, and unchallenged tactical decision errors by the Captain were
the leading causes identified. Effective CRM would have broken the chain of
events leading to an accident in the majority of mishaps studied.

Use Of Checklists
Checklist Initiation
There are three ways to initiate a checklist. The proper method is “Called
For,” the backup method is “Prompted,” and the method of the last resort is
“Self Initiated.”
“Called For” checklist initiation is the checklist habit pattern with the highest
reliability. The Captain/PF initiates the checklist at the appropriate time. This
manner ensures both crewmembers are aware that the checklist is in progress
and specific actions are required.
“Prompted” checklist initiation is used as a backup “second line of defense” to
ensure a checklist is accomplished. The pilot (who will accomplish the
checklist) reminds the Captain/PF (who was supposed to call for the checklist)
that the checklist needs to be accomplished. The Captain/PF, after being
prompted, should then call for the checklist. Although it is not desirable,
“Prompted” checklist initiation is an acceptable way to manage errors and
recover total crew participation. A prompt (by the pilot who will accomplish
the checklist) is required if a checklist has not been called for by the time a
flight arrives at a certain point or time. This certain point or time is a bottom
line for prompting a checklist. The following table lists the bottom lines for
prompting all normal checklists.
