Brand new Aircraft

Some of the systems covered include: EFIS (Electronic Flight Instrument System) which incorporate the EADI (Electronic Attitude Director Indicator), EHSI (Electronic Horizontal Situation Indicator. John also explains the RDMI (Radio Direction Magnetic Indicator) and takes a detailed look at the Engine Instruments. We then make our approach to Lisbon using runway 03. Once on the ground, join John for his pre-flight walk-round as the crew prepare for the return sector.
