Thanks for another great demonstration. With one engine out, would it require rudder trim? I was not able to see any behavior changes in flight after engine one quit.
Yes it would. Of course you'd first of all use manual rudder to maintain the flight path and only thereafter accomplish the primary rudder trim technique.
Are all the actions from the memory item executed by only one pilot or both with separate areas of responsibility? I understand that the actions depicted on this video was a function of flying alone. One more point, which document does state which actions are done by each pilot once the QRH doesn´t indicate that. Thank you.
The items will be "read" out by the PM and then carried out by the pilot in whose area of responsibility they fall. So most switches (except for the left CDU, EFIS CP and MCP) will be handled by the PM, but the thrust levers will for example be handled by the PF or the AP would be disconnected by the PF if required. This is defined in the FCOM Area of Responsibilities chapter. Just like the normal procedures will not always say who's got to do what you can easily tell by checking if the system or switch in question falls into your area of responsibility or your colleagues.
There's of course quite a bit of margin build in by Boeing before damage would occure, but yes, it's possible that the flaps might get damaged if extended above their speed limits.
The AP disconnect is not related to the engine failure but to the powerchange in the system. I've been using CMD A, which is tied to the left electrical system. When engine 1 failed and the left transfer bus was temporarily out of power (until the right generator kicked in and took over the system) the AP disconnected. Had the right engine failed the AP would have remained engaged. It would also have been possible to reengage the AP if I had tried. The same happens by the way if you then turn on the APU in the non normal checklist and select the left APU GEN ON. It would have tripped CMD A OFF. Thus you'd have switched to CMD B before putting on the APU GEN on the left side. Check my engine failure video to see how that's working if you're interested.
