Q

External Walk Around

Why does the Emergency/Parking Brake need to be in prior to starting the external inspection? (SOPM Preflight)

A

Emergency/Parking Brake…ON

Determine there is sufficient hydraulic pressure to activate the Emergency/Parking Brake to check the Brake Wear Indicators.

For the brake wear indicators to be accurate, make sure that the hydraulic system has sufficient pressure and at the parking brake is on. The emergency parking brake is on hydraulic system one.

Q

External Walk Around

Just because the parking brake is on, does this guarantee that there is sufficient hydraulic pressure to check the Brake Wear Indicators? (AOM Vol. 2 Landing Gear and Brakes)

A

AOM Vol. 2 Landing Gear and Brakes. 14-13-05, 14-13-20, 14-13-20.

No, because some of it’s pressure could have been depleted. Check the hydraulic pressure to ensure it is green.

For the parking brake to be fully on, the accumulator has to be green.

Green equals sufficient pressure in the system.

Amber equals the emergency parking brake does not have sufficient pressure.

The emergency parking brake is on hydraulic system one.

“powered by hydraulic systems 1 and systems 2, the emergency/parking brake has pressure accumulators isolated from both normal hydraulic systems. The accumulators have sufficient pressure to provide six full-brake applications”

If the hydraulic pressure is depleted for the brakes, how can it be restored prior to the external walk around? (AOM Vol. 2 Hydraulic)

A

AOM Vol. 2 Hydraulic

Turn the switches Hydraulic system one and two ON, on the hydraulic panel from it’s position of AUTO and Set the parking break.

The emergency parking brake is on hydraulic system one.

Q

External Walk Around

On the external inspection, you notice that the air data proves are covered in frost. What would be an appropriate action by the pilot? (Ref. SOPM Ch. 4)

A
  • turn ADSP Heater ON to remove frozen contaminants.

Turn on ADSP probe heaters when outside air temperature is at or below freezing and water, ice or snow a present or suspected.

AIR DATA SMART PROBE (ADSP) HEATER-

When a parked aircraft has been exposed to freezing conditions, moisture can freeze inside the ADSPs and create an undesired indication on the ground, usually during the first power-up of the day. When airspeed indication is present in the PFDs, any or all of the following messages from the AFCS system may be displayed on the EICAS:
AFCS FAULT, AT FAULT, AP FAULT, FD FAIL, YD FAULT, APPR 2 NOT AVAIL. Air Data Systems (ADS) may be displayed on the EICAS also.:

On the first flight of the day, with temperatures below -18C (0F), or when the smart probes are frozen, accomplish the following procedure after AC POWER is established to the aircraft:

ADSP Heater Switch……ON
Flight Control PBIT………ACCOMPLISH
Verify the click on the Flight Control Synoptic page resets to 50 hours after the Flight Control PBIT is complete.

A

Below -18 Celsius on the first flight of the day.

Smart probes are frozen or contaminated.

Erroneous airspeed or incorrect info on the PFD.

Below 0°C with visible moisture.

Messages on EICAS telling you there’s an issue with the probes:
AFCS FAULT, AT FAULT, AP FAULT, FD FAIL, YD FAULT, APPR 2 NOT AVAIL. Air Data Systems (ADS) may be displayed on the EICAS also.

a) No positive oil pressure indication within 10 seconds after N2 starts to increase.
b) During engine start with a tailwind, when a positive increase of N1 is. It indicated before starter cutout (50% N2). In this case, the airplane is repositioned prior to engine start to minimize tailwind effects.
c) no its indication within 30 seconds ds after initiation of fuel flow.
d) ITT exceeds start limit (815C-HOT)
e) oil pressure stabilized below the engine limits
f) N1 and/or N2 failing to accelerate to stable idle speed (hung start)
g) an intermittent electrical pneumatic or start malfunction occurs before started disengagement

SOPM 2, EFB p 29. GROUND START: when it is necessary to perform an engine start with a tailwind monitor N1 indication. When there is no positive increase is N1 indication before starter cutout (50% N2) the engine start must be manually aborted.

FLCH mode is the recommended vertical mode due to airspeed and altitude protection, as well as low crew workload. Descend straight ahead or I rusticate a turn with maximum of 30 degree bank. It is recommended to start the turn before commencing the emergency descent. When the cabin reaches 14,599 ft or above, set the MASKS DEPLOY selector knob the OVRD immediately. During descent, perform the QEC. The flight profile must be monitored and TERRAIN set on MFD. at 1,000 ft to MEA or 10,000 ASL, close the speed brakes and reduce to an appropriate speed.

If both ice detector probes fail do we have ice protection? If so, how?

A

AOM VOL 2 section 14-23, Ice and rain protection. EFB page 948.

Yes, we still have ice protection. In case of a duel ice detector failure the anti ice operation is only possible in the manual mode. When both ice detectors are failed the crew must set the MODE selector to ON when icing conditions exist or are anticipated. Icing conditions are: TAT of below 10° and visible moisture.

Failure of one ice detector results in the loss of system redundancy. If an icing condition is detected by the remaining sensor, the engine wing anti-ice systems will automatically activate. In case of a duel ice detector failure, the anti-ice operation is only possible in manual mode.

With the runway RCC value of 4/4/3 listed on the current ATIS, should we utilize the maximum performance learning technique? If so what is that consistent of?

A

SOPM CH 4 p258

Yes. When RCCs are reported, the most restrictive is controlling. In this case the RCC 3 will be used. When comparing contaminants on runways with differing RCC values, close attention to contaminate coverage percentages is important. only contaminants with percentages greater than 25% are considered for performance calculations. RCC 3 is considered contaminated and a max performance landing should be used. In addition- auto brakes should be medium and symmetrical breaking applied. Landing with tailwind is not recommended. To perform at max performance Landing:
Use a full flaps.
Cross the threshold at 50 feet AGL and at Vref. Avoid an extended flair.
Apply Max reverse thrust.
Reverse thrust may be used until you come to a complete stop.
Immediately after the main gear touches down apply for maximum manual breaking and hold pressure until you reach a safe taxi speed on runway.
Lower the nose wheel immediately.

Yes. Maximum performance landing employs a set of techniques leading to stopping the airplane with the least distance the following recommendations apply:
Use full flaps
Cross the threshold at a height of 50 feet and the Vref
Avoid extended flare
Apply maximum thrust reverse

When necessary, the thrust reverser’s may be used until the airplane comes to a complete stop. Immediately after the main landing gear has touchdown, apply firm and steady maximum manual breaks and hold pedal pressure until the aircraft decelerates to a safe taxi speed with the nose gear lower immediately.

See GDPM chapter 4 EFB page 51 pre-takeoff contamination check.

A pre-takeoff check is a check of the Aircrafts representative surface for frozen contaminants. This check is conducted within the aircraft HOT. Just prior to takeoff and may be made by observing representative surfaces from whichever vantage point in the aircraft the PIC determines will give an accurate indication of the condition of the aircraft.

A pre-take off contamination check is a check conducted AFTER the HOT has been exceeded. To ensure the wings, control surfaces, and other critical surfaces must be free of all frozen contaminants. This check must be completed within five minutes prior to departure. It is done from inside the main cabin. It is also required when taking off and heavy snow.
