FMS UPDATING
When the load and trim sheet is available, the flight crew:
? Updates the ZFWCG/ZFW
? Checks that the TOW is consistent with the load sheet
? Checks the updated fuel figures
? Changes the FLEX TEMP and the take-off speeds as required
? Enters the THS position on the PERF TAKE OFF page
When the predictions are available, the flight crew prints out the pre-flight data.

SEATING POSITION
To achieve a correct seating position, the aircraft is fitted with an eye-position indicator on the centre windscreen post. The eye-position indicator has two balls on it. When the balls are superimposed on each other, they indicate that the pilot's eyes are in the correct position.
The flight crew should not sit too low, to avoid increasing the cockpit cut-off angle, therefore reducing the visual segment. During Low Visibility Procedures (LVP), it is important that the pilot's

PRE START
eyes are positioned correctly, in order to maximize the visual segment, and consequently, increase the possibility of achieving the appropriate visual reference for landing as early as possible.
After adjusting the seat, each pilot should adjust the outboard armrest, so that the forearm rests comfortably on it, when holding the sidestick. There should be no gaps between the pilot's forearm and the armrest. The pilot's wrist should not be bent when holding the sidestick. This ensures that the pilot can accomplish flight maneuvers by moving the wrist instead of lifting the forearm from the armrest.
Symptoms of incorrect armrest adjustment include over-controlling, and not being able to make small, precise inputs.
The rudder pedals must then be adjusted to ensure the pilot can achieve both full rudder pedal displacement, and full braking simultaneously on the same side.
