34x Study Flashcards

1
Q

Windshear Escape Maneuver

A
  • Max thrust
  • TO/GA
  • ATS off
  • AP off
  • Wings level (DO NOT follow LATERAL FD guidance)
  • Pitch up 15 deg, THEN follow FD vertical guidance)
  • TO/GA guidance will command up to intermittent stick shaker!
  • TO/GA in FMA (and red WINDSHEAR on PFD) = you have guidance

Q

After Exiting Windshear (on Departure)

A
  • Pitch to 15 degrees and manage power
    • rate, gear up
  • 1000’ AGL - VNAV (if continued departure)
    • otherwise stay in TOGA and ATS will fly spd for current flap setting (for max GW)
  • ATS back ON, then:
    • SPD window: leave closed to clean up on speed
      OR open and bug for desired flap speed
  • After T/O Checklist
  • PIREP!! (Alt and Aspd loss)

Q

Rejected Takeoff Procedures

A

CA:

  • “Abort, I have the aircraft”
  • Disengage ATS, close thrust levers
  • Use RTO aborts at/above 90 kts; MAX manual braking for aborts <90 kts
  • Max reverse thrust (for existing conditions)
  • ensure SB is up, pull if necessary

FO:

  • [Announce any abnormalities on T/O roll]
  • [Call out if CA no brakes, T/Ls, ATS or rev thrust]
  • “Speedbrakes up”
  • “80 knots”
  • Call to tower, request emergency equipment
When stopped:
CA: 
- Brief PA announcement 
- Do immediate action checklist
- Inform FAs, another PA-more details
- Post-RTO Considerations checklist 
- Config Park brake on, SB—>down, Flaps—>40 before engine shutdown in case of evac
  - EXCEPT if door lights illum-pax evacuating already!

FO:

  • QRH non-normal, then QRH Rejected T/O
  • Evacuation checklist IF REQUIRED
    • If evac, FO goes out a fwd exit, helps evac from outside acft (FOM Chp 17)

Q

Visual Approach Procedures

A 
FIX - Set up 5 nm radius
DES/APP - underlying approach
 - Extend off of FAF
CRZ ALT to FAF alt
2, 2, 2, and 2 more
VSD up on ND
DES pg - put rwy in (RW36C/)
*Check Class B and MSA
*Brief appch (NATS) and Vol 1 vis appch brief
Des and App checks
LVL CHG on DW to FAF alt
VB=6, slow to 180, F5
VB=5, turn base
LNAV
VOR/LOC
APP, gear dn, F15 intx final, or 1 dot below GS
F25, F30, Landing check
Set 1500’ AFE in alt window
**HDG to CRS!**
AP/ATS off

Q

Engine Failure after V1

A
  • Do NOT increase thrust on good engine (Vmcg/a)
  • Slowly pitch to 12*, then follow FD (V2 to V2+20)
    • -V2+15 is “single white bug”
    • -Limit bank angle to 15* until at/above V2+15
      • –LNAV may command >15*; do not follow it!
  • Scan to PFD (slip/skid ind, FD, and heading bug)

@400’ AGL:
H-eading Select (or LNAV as appropriate)
A-utothrottle off
T-ower radio call/IFE

@1000’ AFE:
B-ug Flaps 1 speed
A-PU - start
T-rim 5 units into GOOD engine

  • Level Change (MCP SPEED)
  • MCT (FMS N1 Pg.; PM manually set throttle to caret)
  • After T/O checklist (first—easily forgotten)
  • Approaching lvl-off, reduce thrust and rudder smoothly
  • Engine Failure (QRH checklist) - after stable at level off!
  • When stable and level, trimmed, engage AP
