The 787 uses (no hydraulic pressure for brakes). The FCOM details the "Brake Temperature Monitoring System." Crucially, it explains the different cooling times for carbon brakes versus steel. This chapter is vital for operational turnarounds.
The 787 was designed as a paperless aircraft. Consequently, the is rarely seen as a physical book. In the flight deck, pilots access the FCOM via the EFB (Electronic Flight Bag), typically running applications like Boeing’s Toolbox or airline-specific portals like Jeppesen FliteDeck Pro. This digital nature allows for hyperlinks, real-time updates, and cross-referencing with the QRH (Quick Reference Handbook). boeing 787 fcom
A critical chapter as the 787 relies on electrical power for many functions traditionally handled by pneumatics. The 787 uses (no hydraulic pressure for brakes)
The is the definitive technical guide used by pilots to operate the "Dreamliner" safely and efficiently. Unlike traditional manuals, the 787 FCOM reflects the aircraft's advanced "more-electric" architecture, where systems like environmental control and wing anti-ice are powered by electricity rather than engine bleed air.
