This exclusive write-up highlights key items from the Boeing 787 Flight Crew Operating Manual (FCOM) tailored for operational awareness and pilot briefing use. It is a concise reference — not a substitute for the official FCOM — intended to summarize high‑priority procedures, limitations, and system behaviors for dispatch and in‑flight decision making.
The 787 operates on a centralized computing system rather than many isolated black boxes. The FCOM explains how the CCS manages data for everything from navigation to climate control, allowing for seamless communication between systems. 4. Exclusive Operational Procedures 787 fcom exclusive

Unique to the 787 asset class, dual are standard factory equipment, integrated seamlessly into the primary flight guidance system. The FCOM structures the HUD as a primary flight reference. The FCOM explains how the CCS manages data
The FCOM and QRH contain detailed procedures for engine-out scenarios. For example, the 787 employs a function called (Hydraulic Isolation Function). This system maintains communication to the primary flight control system in case of an engine burst, which is critical because the slat power drive unit is located in the engine burst zone.
The hum of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner’s cabin was a whisper compared to the roar of older jets, a testament to the composite barrel sections that made its fuselage
After building a solid foundation, pilots can tackle the more standard systems like engines, fuel, and landing gear. Finally, they study the Flight Management and Navigation systems, understanding how to program and operate the 787's advanced flight computers.
