71
Q

Q.5.6. How does the EEC control thrust in the normal mode?

A

The EEC uses sensed flight conditions and bleed air demand based on autothrottle and/or Flight Deck Crew inputs to automatically set engine thrust.

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.3, FRM B737MAX 7.2

72
Q

Q.5.7. When does the EEC automatically switch to soft alternate mode?

A

If required signals are not available to operate in the normal mode, the EEC automatically changes to the soft alternate mode.

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.3.3.2, FRM B737MAX 7.2.3.1

73
Q

Q.5.8. What indication on the Engine Panel would alert the Crew that automatic switching into the soft alternate mode has occurred?

A

When this occurs, the ALTN switch illuminates and the ON indication remains visible

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.3.3.2, FRM B737MAX 7.2.3.2

74
Q

Q.5.9. How does an EEC in soft alternate control the engine?

A

The EEC uses the last valid flight conditions to define engine parameters which allows the mode change to occur with no immediate change in engine thrust.

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.3.3.2, FRM B737MAX 7.2.3.2

75
Q

Q.5.10. What is the indication on the EEC switch on the Engine Panel if hard alternate mode is manually selected?

A

When ALTN is selected manually, the ON indication is blanked.

76
Q

Q.5.11. What is the effect on the EECs with a loss of either DEU (NG) or either DPC (MAX)?

A

Loss of either DEU (NG), DPC (MAX) results in a loss of signal to both EECs. The EEC ALTN lights illuminate and each EEC reverts to the [soft] alternate mode to prevent the engines from operating on a single source of data.

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.3.3.2, FRM B737MAX 7.2.3.2

77
Q

Q.5.12. The hard alternate mode has what affect on thrust?

A

Hard alternate mode thrust is always equal to or greater than normal mode thrust for the same lever position. Thrust protection is not provided in the hard alternate mode and maximum rated thrust is reached at a thrust lever position less than full forward.

Reference: AOM 14.2

80
Q

Q.5.15. What is a consideration for APU use during a deicing/anti-icing event?

A

If not required, the APU should be shut down to eliminate the possibility of deicing/anti-icing fluid entering the APU inlet, which may cause erratic operation or damage to the APU.

Reference: AOM 15.1.9

81
Q

Q.5.16. Which side of the fuel manifold does the APU draw fuel from?

A

Fuel to start and operate the APU comes from the left side of the fuel manifold when the AC fuel pumps are operating. If the AC fuel pumps are not operating, fuel is suction fed from the No. 1 tank.

Reference: FRM B737NG 7.4.2.1, FRM B737NG 7.4.2.1.1, FRM B737MAX 7.3.2.2

82
Q

Q.5.17. When the APU is the only source of electrical power, what is the difference between load shedding on the ground and in flight?

A

On the ground, the APU attempts to carry a full electrical load. If an overload condition is sensed, the APU sheds galley busses and main busses until the load is within limits. In flight, all galley busses and main busses are automatically shed.

Q

Q.6.3. After aircraft deicing, when is a Flight Deck Check required?

A

A Flight Deck Check must be performed any time a HOT is calculated or frozen precipitation is present.

Note: This is directed during Step 8 of the Deice/ Anti-Ice Procedures Card.

Reference: AOM 15.1.13.1 Deice/Anti-Ice Procedures Card

100
Q

Q.6.4. After aircraft deicing, when is a Cabin Check required?

A

A Cabin Check is required when the holdover time is expired, heavy snow (+SN) is present, or the mixed icing conditions (that do not include moderate or heavy freezing rain, or hail) are not identified in the HOT app or FAA HOT tables.

Note: This is directed during Step 8 of the Deice/ Anti-Ice Procedures Card.

Reference: AOM 15.1.13.2, Deice/Anti-Ice Procedures Card

101
Q

Q.6.5. Considering the three types of Deice/ Anti-Ice Methods, when would you use Deicing Only, One Step, or Two Step?

A

Deicing Only:
The removal of frozen contamination (or removal Type IV fluid as indicated on WN-654) is required and the aircraft will remain free of contamination until takeoff.

One-Step:
Takeoff can be expected within the Type I fluid holdover time for the current/ forecast weather conditions and Type IV is not required.

Two-Step:
Current/ forecast weather conditions require the use of Type IV fluid or when Type I fluid holdover times are not sufficient.
