.
within 10 seconds after passing within two NM of the initial approach fix (approach navigation environment, default RNP = 0.5 NM or with the NPS option, default RNP = 0.3 NM).
In the event of an FMC navigation anomaly, RNAV (RNP) operations should not be conducted while the “VERIFY POSITION” message is displayed. The FMC Source Select Switch should be positioned to BOTH ON L or BOTH ON R to cause the FMC to return to updating from available onside sensors. The FMC Source Select Switch should remain in the selected position for the remainder of the flight to prevent the anomaly from recurring.
Flight Crew Operations Manual Bulletin No. SHZ-33 R2, dated November 01, 2004 (continued)
After landing, a long-term power interrupt of 15 seconds or longer will be necessary to at least one FMC to clear the anomalies. This can be accomplished by removing all airplane electrical power or by an approved maintenance procedure.
This problem remains under investigation. Boeing and Smiths Industries are evaluating the need for an intermediate FMC Update (U10.5a) that would be targeted for second quarter 2004.
Operating Instructions
If the “VERIFY POSITION” message appears, do not clear the message from the FMC scratchpad. Do not conduct RNAV (RNP) operations while the message is displayed.
If the “VERIFY POSITION” message appears shortly after manually entering an approach RNP of 0.2 NM or less while in cruise or during descent above 15,000 feet, slow the airplane to 250 knots or less. If the message is due to delays in sensor updating the message will self-clear.
If the “VERIFY POSITION” message is displayed when descending through 15,000 feet, or after passing within two NM of the initial approach fix, position the FMC Source Select Switch to BOTH ON L or BOTH ON R for the remainder of the flight.
After landing, a long-term power interrupt (15 seconds or longer) must be performed on at least one FMC to clear the anomalies.
