Q

135.301 crew member: tests and checks, grace provisions, training to accepted standards.

A

(A) if a crew member who is required to take a test or a flight check under this part, completes the test or flight check in the calendar month before or after the calendar month in which it is required, that crew member is considered to have completed the test or check in the calendar month in which it is required.

(B) if a pilot being checked under this part fail any of the required maneuvers, the person giving the check may give additional training to the pilot during the course of the check. In addition to repeating the maneuvers failed, the person giving the check may require the pilot being checked to repeat any other maneuvers that are necessary to determine the pilots proficiency. If the pilot being checked is unable to demonstrate satisfactory performance to the person conducting the check, the certificate holder may not use the pilot, nor may the pilot serve, as a flight crew member in operations under this part until the pilot has satisfactorily completed the check.

Q

135.293 initial and recurrent pilot testing requirements.

A

Must be done every 12 months
Include written or a oral check over: part 61, 91, 135, and the GOM,
Aircraft-power plant, systems, components, appliances, performance and limitation, normal and emergency procedures, and the contents of the AFM
navigation- use of nav aids, ATC, IFR and instrument approach procedures
Meteorology- theory, frontal systems, icing, fog, thunderstorms, windshear and high altitude weather, procedures to recognize and avoid severe weather: low altitude windshear, operating in or near thunderstorms, turbulent air, icing, hail, and other hazardous conditions, new equipment, procedures or techniques as appropriate
Flight check- those maneuvers necessary to determine the pilots competency in each class of aircraft the pilot serves as pilot. Competent performance of procedure or maneuver by a person to be used as pilot requires that pilot be the obvious master of the aircraft, with the successful outcome of the maneuver never in doubt.
The competency check may include any of the maneuvers and procedures currently required for the original issuance of the particular pilot certificate required for the operations authorized and appropriate to the category, class and type of aircraft involved.
The instrument proficiency check required by 135.297 may be substituted for the competency check required by this section for the type of aircraft used in the check.
The administrator or authorized check pilot certifies the competency of each pilot who passes the knowledge or flight check in the certificate holders pilot records.

Q

Check ride guidelines DOs and DONTs

A

No planned simulated work below 500 feet AGL unless established on a stabilized final approach
No planned simulated single engine work in actual IMC
sIngle engine (simulated) go-around is allowed if initiated by 500 feet AGL.
No actual single engine operations are to be conducted
No simulated single engine operations are to be conducted in mountainous terrain or at airports with substantial obstacles regardless of airport elevation
In case of an unplanned actual go-around use power to both engines
Vision restriction devices will be used for all instrument procedures on instrument proficiency check rides conducted in the aircraft, including stalls, steep turns, unusual attitudes.
Commercially available vision restriction devices are acceptable provided the device does not limit the vision of the check airmen. The use of pillows, charts taped to windows, or other methods that could jeopardize safety are not acceptable.
Stalls, steep turns and unusual attitudes are to be done at no less than 5,000ft MSL or 5,000ft AGL, whichever is higher, but no higher than 15,000ft MSL. Recommend 3000ft blocks.
Normally stall recovery is initiated at first indication of and approaching stall by the stall warning system. However should the stall warning system fail, the recovery will be commenced at the Vmc speed or aerodynamic buffet, whichever occurs first. Should a question arise about whether or not the aircraft is about to stall, stall recovery will be initiated immediately.
The check airmen shall occupy a pilot seat.
No flap 0 degree landings.
No simulated aborted takeoffs above 50 kias

Clearance limit. If at a fix where an approach begins commence descent or descent and approach as close as possible to the EFC time if one has been provided, or if one has not been provided, as close as possible to the ETA as calculated from the filed time en route.
If the clearance limit is not at a fix from which an approach begins, leave the clearance limit at the expect further clearance time, if one has not been received upon arrival over the clearance limit, and proceed to a fix from which an approach begins and commence descent or descent and approach as close as possible to the ETA.

(I) at least one pilot at the controls shall wear, secured and sealed, an oxygen mask that either supplies oxygen at all times or automatically supplies oxygen whenever the cabin pressure altitude exceeds 12,000 ft MSL; and
(ii) during that flight, each other pilot on flight deck duty shall have an oxygen mask, connected to an oxygen supply, located so as to allow immediate placing of the mask on the pilots face sealed and secured for use.
(3) whenever a pressurized aircraft is operated at altitudes above 35,000 feet MSL, at least one pilot at the controls shall wear, secured and sealed, an oxygen mask required by (b)(2)(I)
(4) if one pilot leaves a pilot duty station of an aircraft when operating at altitudes above 25,000 feet MSL, the remaining pilot at the controls shall put on and use an approved oxygen mask until the other pilot returns to the pilot duTy station of the aircraft. (135.89)

221
Q

What does activation of the gear warning horn indicate?

A

Flight: the power is reduced below 15” and the gear is up or if the flaps are lowered passed 15 degrees and the gear is up

222
Q

Do the brakes use the same hydraulic oil reservoir as the gear?

A

No

223
Q

Do the toe brakes need to be depressed while engaging the parking brake?

A

Yes, the parking brake holds the pressure applied by the toe brakes

224
Q

Specifically, what happens when the emergency gear control T-handle is pulled?

A

It released dry nitrogen into the shuttle valve, which moves the shuttle valve from the hydraulic position to the air position, nitrogen then releases the up-locks and then moves into the landing gear cylinders which drives the gear into the down and lock position.

259
Q

For flights below 12,000 feet, why does the cabin at the same rate as the aircraft for the first 1000 or so feet?
