SmartOps is designed to offer a 'heads-up' to potential issues which have been experienced in the field by operators flying the Global aircraft. It also brings together related ADVISORY WIRES and other published material, in ONE PLACE, in an understandable format that is user friendly for the flying group.

The categories are divided into two groups: PROACTIVE information (Operational Tips) and REACTIVE information (Flight Deck Indications, CAS Messages, and Navigation Tips).

SmartOps is limited to items that affect aircraft operation, starting when the Pilots board the aircraft until the aircraft begins taxiing, and after engine shutdown.

This guide is organized in a logical sequence, alphabetically, and by category. In the description section of each item, it is pointed out if an item is applicable to all Global aircraft or to a particular Global model. However this is not always possible, so please keep that in mind while using this information. Only Advisory Wires and any other published Bombardier document is endorsed by the manufacturer.

NOTES:

1. When the RECOMMENDED ACTION provides an AW synopsis, it is only a partial explanation of the problem and action. Reference the actual AW for full explanation.
   
   
2. Any AMM Task reference is an aide to understanding the problem more thoroughly. The task is a MAINTENANCE function only and not to be accomplished by a crew member unless that crew member is qualified to perform that task.

   ALPHABETICAL VERSION 1.15 9 March, 2022	CAS MESSAGES, FLIGHT DECK INDICATIONS, NAVIGATION TIPS, OPERATIONS TIPS listed in alphabetical order.
   CAS VERSION 1.4 9 March, 2022	CAS messages with possible fast solutions / explanations based on operator experience. Many of the CAS messages will have an associated Advisory Wire link.
   FLIGHT DECK INDICATIONS VERSION 1.3 Feb 28, 2017	Flight deck indications that affect the flight crew in any way (excluding CAS messages). This could be information that is difficult to find, as it may be found deep in manuals where access is limited, events that happen on the aircraft where no CAS message is generated (e.g. flap noise, freezing brakes, etc.)
   NAVIGATION TIPS VERSION 1.00	Navigation tips that are useful while preparing to fly in world wide airspace.
   OPERATIONAL TIPS VERSION 1.81 July 30, 2020	Operational tips that an operator will find helpful to be aware of PRIOR to operating the Global. May save 'embarrassment', time and efficiency.

Operational Hints and Tips - Dec 07

These Hints and Tips are suggestions that have been developed based on the operational experience. Should any conflict with the Airplane Flight Manual (AFM), Aircraft Maintenance Manual (AMM) or your regulatory agency be found, always defer to the AFM, AMM or respective agency.

Transport Canada Holdover Time (HOT) Guidelines

This document should be used in conjunction with Guidelines for Aircraft Ground-Icing Operations (TP 14052E, second edition, April 2005). The two documents complement each other and should be used together for a thorough understanding of the subject matter.

TP 14052 - Guidelines for Aircraft Ground - Icing Operations

TP 14052 has been generated to serve as an Aircraft Ground Icing resource to the Canadian Aviation Industry.

It is anticipated that the information contained in this TP guidance document will serve Air Operators, Airport Operators, deicing service providers, Central Deicing Facility (CDF) operators, maintenance personnel, managers, Transport Canada Operations Inspectors, and others involved in aircraft ground icing operations.

2024 - 2025 Cold Weather Operations

The presence of ice, snow, slush, or water accumulation, may have serious consequences on critical systems such as the engines, the APU, the wings, the landing gear and the sensing elements. The recommendations contained in this newsletter supplement normal procedures and will help ensure satisfactory operation of the aircraft and its systems in cold climatic conditions. In case of a discrepancy between the aircraft manuals and the recommendations in this document, the aircraft manuals prevail.
