4. GENERAL
4.1. Manufactured by Pacific Simulators 2010 Ltd, the ProJet Series PS4.5 is a fixed-base FSTD
(Flight Simulator Training Device) based on a single-aisle, twin engine jet airliner.
4.2. The PS4.5 FSTD is designed for pilot training applications such as Multi-Crew Cooperation
(MCC) Courses, Jet Transition training, Jet Orientation Courses (JOC), systems training,
procedural training and advanced instrument training.
• Fixed-base FSTD based on a modern, twin engine, narrow body jet airliner
• Fully enclosed cockpit
• Fully functional aircraft panels, systems, avionics and controls including glass
cockpit instrument displays, Flight Management Computers (FMC), Autopilot Flight
Director System (AFDS), TCAS, weather radar, and EGPWS
• Dual-linked flight controls, rudder pedals and steering tiller
• Motorised throttle quadrant including auto-throttle, speed-brake lever and trim
wheels
• Surround stereo sound system and seat shakers
• High Definition Visual System with a 180° wrap-around curved screen
• Global scenery and navigation database including over 24,000 airports and cities
• Four crew seats including 5-point seat harnesses, headsets and oxygen masks for
the pilot stations
• Touch-screen Instructors Station console with extensive features
• Certification by multiple civil aviation regulatory authorities.
• Some PS4.5 FSTD’s are equipped with Circuit Breaker Panels behind the Captain’s
seat (P18 Panel), behind the First Officer’s seat (P6 Panel), and behind the control
stand. These panels are representative of a typical twin-engine jet airliner flight
deck.
• The P6 Panel is on a hinge and can be moved against the rear-right side of the
simulator to give more space. The normal position for the P6 Panel is full extended
behind the First Officer’s Seat. Note: In some devices, the observer seat at the rear-
right of the flight deck must be removed to extend or stow the P6 Panel and then
reinstalled once the panel is locked in position. Follow the instructions on the
placard adjacent to the observer seat.
• Circuit Breaker Panels in PS4.5 FSTDs are non-functional and are designed only to
be checked as part of the Preliminary Preflight Procedure as per the Pilot Operating
Procedures section of this manual. The circuit breakers are not required to be
pulled or used for any normal or non-normal procedure or checklist.
• The transport delay for the instruments, visual system and flight controls of a PS4.5
FSTD do not exceed 300 milliseconds (ms) and do not exhibit any discernible delay
that affects the realism of the simulated flight characteristics. The following SOC
(Statement of Compliance) can be used for the purposes of FSTD certification:
The industry standard USB 2.0 serial connection has a raw data rate at 480Mbps
and this is the only connection used for all Pacific Simulators PS4.5 FSTD input
devices. Each Pacific Simulators PS4.5 device is polled by the software interfaces
every 50 milliseconds to ensure the device is both responding and meets the
requirements.
Each control input is tested by the IOS when the device is started by PS4.5 device to
ensure the transport delay time or any design parameters is out of original
tolerances. Control inputs are polled by the software interfaces every 50
milliseconds to ensure the device is both responding and meets the requirements.
If the test fails, an error message appears on the IOS identifying the control(s) out
of tolerance, and simulator operation cannot be continued. It the test is successful,
a message will appear stating “Simulation Start – Simulator successful test
conditions”.
All instrumentation and indicators on PS4.5 devices are displayed on high quality
LCD monitors and high quality physical gauges. All indications and displays are
visible during all flight operations, do not appear to be out of focus or illegible, do
not appear to “jump” or “step”, and do not appear with distracting jagged lines or
edges.

Fuel System
• Maximum tank fuel temperature is 49°C.
• Minimum tank fuel temperature prior to takeoff and inflight is -
43°C, or 3°C above the fuel freezing point temperature, whichever
is higher.
Note: The use of Fuel System Icing Inhibitor additives does not
change the minimum fuel tank temperature limit.
• Intentional dry running of a center tank fuel pump (low pressure
light illuminated) is prohibited.
Fuel Balance
• Lateral imbalance between main tanks 1 and 2 must be scheduled
to be zero. Random fuel imbalance must not exceed 453kgs for
taxi, takeoff, flight or landing.

• Main tanks 1 and 2 must be full if center tank contains more than
453kgs.
Landing Gear
• Operation with assumed temperature reduced takeoff thrust is
not permitted with anti-skid inoperative.
COMPANY SOPS
Handover and Takeover Procedures
(a) Handover of control from one pilot to another must always be
conducted in a positive manner. To minimise confusion or
operational risk, the PF must not relinquish control until the PM
has advised that he/she has taken control of the aircraft.
(b) The standard phraseology to be used for handover/takeover
procedures is: “You have control” and “I have control”.
(c) When handing over control when the autopilot is engaged, the PF
should readout the AFDS status and FMAs before handing over
control. The crew member taking control should also readout the
AFDS status and FMAs and engage the autopilot on their side (the
captain will use CMD ‘A’ and the F/O will use CMD ‘B’). This
procedure ensures that both crew members are aware of the
automation status and the CMD engaged provides a visual cue for
who is PF.
FMA Changes
(a) The PF must readout all FMA changes for both manual flight and
automatic flight, except for during the takeoff and initial climb
procedure when the aircraft is below 400ft AGL as indicated on
the radio altimeter. The PM should respond with “Checked”.

NORMAL PROCEDURES –
AMPLIFIED PROCEDURES FOR PILOTS
PROJET SERIES PS4.5 FSTD
CAUTION: THESE PROCEDURES ARE FOR PACIFIC SIMULATORS PROJET
SERIES PS4.5 FSTDS ONLY AND MUST NOT BE USED FOR REAL-WORLD
OPERATIONS TO OPERATE ANY TYPE OF AIRCRAFT.
The procedures are completed by memory and scan flow. For each phase
of flight, a set sequence of scans, procedures and checklists need to be
completed, to ensure that the aircraft systems are set. A scan is a visual
review of the relevant instrument panels and controls, with setting of
controls and switches where required. The scan flow sequence may be
changed as needed.
Normal procedures are broken into the following different flight phases:
• Preflight • After Takeoff • Shutdown
• Before Start • Descent • Secure
• Before Taxi • Approach
• Before Takeoff • Landing
Crew Duties
For multi-crew operations, the preflight and postflight duties are divided
between the Captain (C) and First Officer (F/O). Phase of flight duties are
divided between the Pilot Flying (PF) and the Pilot Monitoring (PM).
The PF and PM duties may change during a flight. For example, the captain
could be the PF during taxi but be the PM during takeoff through to
landing.
The mode control panel (MCP) is the PF’s responsibility. When flying
manually, the PF directs the PM to make the changes on the MCP.
The captain is the final authority for all tasks directed and done.
For single-pilot operations, the pilot should assume all duties for the
captain and first officer, and for the PF and PM.
In flight, the PM usually makes the CDU entries. The PF may also make
simple CDU entries when workload allows. The pilot making the entries
should only execute changes after the other pilot verifies the entries.
Key
The following can be used as a key for the amplified pilot procedures:

SIMULATOR SEATING
Seats
• 2 x Pilot Seats include:
o Adjustable - forward, backwards, rise and fall.
o Arm rests.
o 5-point seat harness.
• 2 x Observer Seats include:
o Fixed seats.
o 1 x seat for Instructors Station Console.
Seat Adjustment
Captain and F/O seats can be adjusted forwards and backwards and are locked in place by an adjustment handle
on the centre console side of the seat.
• To adjust the seat forward, move the adjustment handle to the rear and using the hand grip on the
underside of the top of the front window, pull yourself and seat in and forward. When the seat is in the
desired position, move the adjustment handle back to the locked position.
• To adjust the seat backwards, move the adjustment handle to the rear and using your feet 'push' your
seat backwards and then move the adjustment handle back to the locked position when the seta is in
the desired position.
When adjusting the seat to the extreme rearward position the seat will move sideways away from the centre
console. You should enter and exit the seat while in this position as it gives the most clearance between the seat
and centre console.
The two jump seats are fixed and do not have safety harnesses.
Safety Harnesses
Both Captain's and F/O's seats are fitted with 5 point safety harnesses.
Fitting of the harness should be done in the following manner by clicking in each belt:
1. Secure lap belt.
2. Secure between the legs belt.
3. Secure the shoulder harnesses.
Remove the harness in the following manner:
1. Turn the securing buckle to release each harness.
WARNING - Use caution when releasing the shoulder harnesses as they may retract quickly with the clip
possibly catching your upper body or head if allowed to retract under their own tension. Ensure lap straps
and buckles are kept on the seats and are not handing off the seat when the seat is positioned forward or aft.
Failure to do so may result in damage to Pedestal Panel, Side Panels, and the floor.

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. This section of the PS4.5 Simulator Operations Manual relates to the Simulator Operator
Endorsement Training Course for the ProJet Series PS4.5 FSTD (Flight Simulator Training
Device). The objective of this section of the manual is to provide the training course syllabus
and checkride details to endorse a participant to operate a PS4.5 FSTD.
1.2. The ‘Operator’ refers to an individual who is required to use the FSTD for any purpose, as
the responsible person for the simulator. This person may be the instructor, technician or
pilot. It is intended that the Operator is the instructor that is conducting the training session
using the simulator.
1.3. The PS4.5 Simulator Operator Endorsement does not have an expiration date. There is no
requirement for recency training or for the endorsement to be renewed, however, it is
highly recommended that remedial training is conducted if the operator has not used the
FSTD for more than six (6) months.
1.4. It is the manufacturer’s requirement that a PS4.5 FSTD can only be used for flying
operations if there is at least one (1) person present in the device that is endorsed on the
PS4.5 FSTD, as per this document. The device can be started and used as a ground/static
trainer with no flying operations without an endorsed operator present.
2.1. GENERAL:
1) The PS4.5 Simulator Operator Endorsement Training Course Instructor can be any
operator who has been previously endorsed on the device and holds a PS4.5 Simulator
Operator Endorsement Certificate.
2) The training course consists of two structured lessons, where each lesson is designed
to introduce new concepts, procedures and instructions while reinforcing what has
been previously taught.
3) The training course can be completed in groups of up to 3 participants at a time but is
ideally completed with only 1-2 participants.
4) On completion of the training course, the participant will be examined through a
checkride/practical assessment by the instructor.
5) Once the participant passed the checkride they will be awarded a PS4.5 Simulator
Operator Endorsement Certificate.
2.2. DURATION:
1) The total duration of the courses is typically between four and ten hours depending on
the level of experience of the individual(s). The duration of each lesson will be dictated
by individual competency and may be completed over more than one training session.

iii. PS4.5 Simulator Operator Endorsement Checkride
iv. Procedure for training and endorsing new PS4.5 FSTD Operators
3.1. GENERAL:
1) The PS4.5 Simulator Operator Endorsement Checkride is conducted and assessed by
the course instructor as part of Lesson 2 of the Operator Endorsement Training Course.
2) The checkride involves the participant satisfactorily demonstrating the competencies
set in the checkride including starting the simulator, setting up for a flight, flying one
circuit, then shutting down the simulator.
3) The course instructor will assess the participant against the Checkride Form detailed
below to ensure the participant is competent in operating the PS4.5 FSTD.
2) The checkride will be assessed by the course instructor using the Checkride Form on
the following page.
3) If the participant passes the checkride:
i. The Checkride Form should be placed in a folder and stored for future records.
ii. The participant’s details should be logged on the PS4.5 Simulator Operator
Endorsement List at the front of the master PS4.5 Simulator Operations Manual,
stored inside the simulator.
iii. The participant should be awarded a PS4.5 Simulator Operator Endorsement
certificate.
4) If the participant fails the checkride, the instructor will provide remedial training in the
areas where the student performed unsatisfactorily. The student may then attempt
the checkride.
