When HomeSafe is activated,
HOMESAFE REQUEST
is displayed in the CAS
window for 15 seconds before HomeSafe starts the automatic landing process.
During those 15 seconds, if the autopilot was not engaged prior to HomeSafe
activation, the Level mode is activated.
HomeSafe uses all the airplane systems in order to enable the automatic landing of
the airplane.
Once started, HomeSafe will perform the following tasks :
-
Change the user interface to address non-pilot occupants and inform them
about what will occur during the HomeSafe function flight by playing a series of
informational videos on the MFD related to the different phases of the
HomeSafe function flight.
-
Set the transponder to the emergency code (7700),
-
Communicate with Air Traffic Control,
-
Choose a destination airport and an appropriate flight path to this airport,
-
Perform an R-NAV approach,
-
Set the airplane in landing configuration (deploy flaps and landing gear),
-
Land and stop the airplane on the runway,
-
Shut down the engine.
To perform the entire sequence, HomeSafe requires the airplane systems to be fully
operational.
