Alternate Airport Weather (Countries other than Canada or the USA)
Published “For Filing As Alternate” in Jepp 10-9 pages
No Alternate IFR
NAIFR
1. Flights up to 6 Hours:
- Takeoff within NA, Caribbean or BDA
- Land in NA
2. Flights 6-8 Hours:
- Takeoff AND Landing within NA
- @ 4-6 hours from ETA: PIC confirms w/DXP a/d acceptable
3. Within 6 Hours ETA in CANADA, PIC may re-file NAIFR regardless of Departure
NA = Canada + USA (incl Alaska ONLY). NO Hawaii, Mexico, Caribbean islands or Central America
Weather Requirements:
- 1 Hour Before to 1 Hour After ETA, NO Forecast/Report:
- Fog / Vis Restriction / Precip below 3sm
- Thunderstorms / Freezing Precip
- In CANADA:
- Ceiling = FAF + 1000’ & 3sm (2nd lowest useable limits) OR;
- Ceiling = 1500’ & 6sm
- In USA:
- Ceiling = 2000’ & 3sm
- Destination Equipment:
- 2 separate runways (1 wet ldg dist)
- 2 independent IFR Approach (one may be GNSS)
- Emergency standby generator
-PIC Ensures:
- Enroute/Destination suitable
- Familiar with diversion airports
- Enroute NAV, Approach, ATC, Wx reporting & airport facilities are adequate
-NAIFR may be restricted in 10-10 pages for certain airports
COMM Failure
Communication Failure
COMMS FAILURE:
- Squawk 7600
- Attempt contact with ATC and other a/c
- Listen on last assigned frequency
- Listen on NAVAIDS eg VOR voice broadcast)
- ACK by using norm/stby XPDR functions
- Transmit on last frequency and 121.5 or previous frequency
- Use any means available: Sat phone, cellphone, ACARS dispatch, WiFi (email, WiFi calling), try both pilot transmitters and both VHF radios, try hand mic etc
If VMC: Land at nearest suitable as soon as practicable
In IMC:
- Follow SID specific LOST COMMS Procedure for Route & Altitude. If NOT available, follow generic procedures below
ROUTE:
- By last assigned
- IF vector, direct to
- ATC advised Expected clearance
- Route on flight plan
ALT - HIGHEST Of:
- Last assigned
- Min IFR Alt
- ATC advised Expected Flight level. Climb @ Time of Point of EFC
APPROACH:
- Maintain ALT to fix for approach & descent at most recent time of:
- ETA (Takeoff time + EET filed/reported to ATC)
- ETA last received/Ack by ATC
- EAT
- EFC if holding
STAR:
- Maintain appropriate altitude and proceed direct to FAF by:
- Published STAR
- DTW direct IAF (ATIS approach)
- Routing, ALT, & Speed on Closed STAR
- Close an Open STAR and follow Route, ALT, & Speed
Volcanic Ash Immediate Actions
(Non memory)
-180° turn
-ATC - Advise
-A/THR - Off
-Thrust (if conditions permit) - Reduce
-Crew O2 Masks - Use 100% / EMER
-Cabin Crew - Notify
-PAX O2 mask - on as req’d
-ENG Anti-ice - on
-Wing Anti-ice - on
You have just been pushed back and set the parking brake. You’ve instructed the ramp personnel to remove pins. The
Aircraft starts to move forward. What do you do?
Disconnect parking brake and use regular braking.
Hot brakes advisement on arrival. When to say it and who to say to?
- 500°C
- Advise STOC and Maintenance.
- Confirm with Ramp if they connect headset. They will then chock Aircraft.
WING TK OVERFLOW ECAM during preflight, with engines OFF, what do you do?
Or Fuel Spill Reported
- Don’t do ECAM
- Fuel Pumps - OFF
- Fuel Mode Selector - MAN 319/320 (AUTO for 321)
- Normal APU Shutdown
- Cease Fuelling
Advise:
- Dispatch
- ATC
- Cabin Crew
IF spill is major (exceed 1.5m in any direction or 12mm in depth):
- Deplane Passengers
- Consider “DEPLANE IMMEDIATELY AND LEAVE YOUR PERSONAL BELONGINGS”
- Keep Passengers clear of spill
