B737 Alerts vs Flight Briefing

B737 Alerts is a handy reference guide to the error messages produced by Boeing 737-600, -700, -800, -900, and BBJ series. Designed for professional pilots and maintenance personnel, B737 Alerts covers three types of errors: - Those from the PFD/ND (Next Generation only) - Those from the FMC - Those from the panel modules. In all, nearly four hundred errors are covered. Control head annunciations are cross-linked to QRH procedures as a handy study aid. As always, your FAA-Approved Flight Manual is the final authority as to the safe operation of your airplane, but this is a great training aid for those new in type, studying the systems, or facing a checkride. Each error has a link to a detailed description of the error as well as suggestions for immediate corrective action. Messages are also classified by system and ATA chapter, thus helping you focus on your FCOM or maintenance manual for additional research. B737 Alerts was developed by Bill Bulfer, a recently retired captain with a major airline with extensive time in type. Bill is also the author of the Cockpit Companion series and the FMC Guide, soon to be adapted for the iPad.

Prepare and perform your flight with the FlightBriefing App, then submit all the entered data and journey log to your airline's flight ops department or operations center from within the app. The Flight Briefing App contains a complete Electronic Flight Folder, with all necessary information for a pre-flight briefing, including map, weather (METAR, TAF, SIGMET, Wind and significant weather charts), NOTAMs, Operational Flight Plan (including Mass & Balance and Fuel Figures), and the filed ATC flight plan. - The Operational Flight Plan is interactive, perform time and fuel checks during the flight, remaining time and fuel is automatically calculated. - Weather and NOTAMs can be searched and marked as important or not applicable. - All data recorded during flight can then be submitted to your Airline's Flight Ops Department, eliminating the need for paper in the cockpit. - Includes a Journey Log with fields customized for your airline. Layout and data included can be adapted to your airline's own needs and operational procedures. The real data presented in the Flight Briefing App will come from your Airline's flight planning system (PPS, Navblue N-Flight Planning, other providers upon request), and contain the same information as you get in a traditional paper briefing package. An integration with your airline's flight planning provider and operational procedures is therefore necessary.
