Code 7700

Code7700 is provided free of charge in an effort to provide sourced-information about all facets of aviation.

Always remember that Eddie, when you get right down to it, is just a pilot. He tries to give you the facts from the source materials but maybe he got it wrong, maybe he is out of date. Sure, he warns you when he is giving you his personal techniques, but you should always follow your primary guidance (Aircraft manuals, government regulations, etc.) before listening to Eddie.

My objective is to give pilots the tools they need to fly more safely. If you are a copyright holder and see your material here, that means I think your work can help to that end. Still, if you would rather your materials not appear on this website, please "Contact Eddie" using the link below and your material will be removed. It will be our loss, but I understand the need to protect creative rights.

To answer another frequent question: yes I live in fear of law suits and have reached out for permissions where possible. Gulfstream has been very good about all of this provided I add the note shown below. Let me be clear about this: I think the world of Gulfstream Aerospace. There is no prettier wing in existence than what you see on a GV or G550 and the best cockpit I've ever touched is in my trusty G450.

Procedure

[G450 Airplane Flight Manual §2-05-40]

Altimeters (3) . . . SET & CROSS-CHECKED (AT TRANSITION LEVEL)

If you have a low altitude transition level, using the electronic checklist's "Defer" option can help remind you when the time comes to leave 1013.

SEAT BELT . . . AS REQUIRED

Most operators use 10,000 feet to do this. Some have passengers who come up to the cockpit and say "Let me know when I really have to sit down," or who just ignore the thing altogether.

We get the pulse lights at FL 180.

Flight Observer Seat Position / Interior Doors . . . CHECK
