RTO actions
PF
PM

Answer 5

PF - TL IDLE, max braking, centreline, (park brake gently if brake fail). Once under control, think wind/fire/smoke
PM - Ensure PF in control, call DTG vs speed until stopping assured, ATC “Stopping”, wind direction?

Each crew member to carry:
Fast find 220
Go pack

Question 22

SID Climb Gradients

Answer 22

MCG for obstacle avoidance - OEI must be used, alternative procedure/actions in the event of EF?
MCG for ATC - AEO performance assumed

Perf calcs only cater for MCG up to 1,500ft AGL (based on Aerodrome level), if MCG extends above for terrain clearance, must check performance data.

Phenom
OEI climb gradient ~4.5% = 2.5 deg
AEO climb gradient ~19% = 11 deg

Question 23

OEI Climb Speed?

Answer 23

V2 - V2 + 10 to accel alt
Vfs = until end of NTOFP and obstacle clearance assured (eg. height 1,500ft or SALT if terrain a factor?)
Vfs + 10 = rule of thumb, until operating ALT (roughly same as drift down speed)

Question 24

SID QNH vs QFE

Answer 24

FMS assumes QNH set but NAV can be used still considering

For aerodromes above sea level… will result in delay to actions in the profile.

Turn ON above FL150 | Use CKPT temp Hi in climb?

Question 26

Question 31

Min speed in cold temps | SAT or TAT?

Answer 31

New FRC amendment chart SAT - 54C > M0.4 colder, must go slightly faster Driftdown speed lower? Maintain M0.4 until out of temp range then revert to drift down. Min fuel temp -36C

TAT > = 5C - OFF No visible moisture - OFF If not met, continue to fly the approach with WINGSTAB On to MAP or execute vertical MAP. Conditions for WINGSTAB ON >150kts > 400ft HAZARDS No Increase Speed warning Stick pusher speed increased

Question 46

``` RVSM requirements: pre-flight In flight procedures in RVSM airspace unable during flight ``` Where is RVSM airspace?

Answer 46

Pre-flight: Wx forecast moderate or severe turbulence? MEL check A/C can meet requirements pitot/static check, RVSM critical areas. ``` In flight: 2 independent ADC driven altimeters reading within 200ft Autopilot Auto height hold height selector and alerter Mode S or mode C altitude reporting ``` In RVSM Airspace: Alt checked and recorded prior to entering Level offs within 150ft <1,500fpm climb/descent with 5nm, 2000ft of other aircraft "C/S Unable RVSM Due Equipment/turbulence" RVSM airspace: FL290 - FL410 inclusive, 1,000ft separation.

Question 47

PBN operations SUTTO En-route Approach

Answer 47

SUTTO: Verify databases, route sense-check, check GPS position on map Aux page: RAIM cx for destinations, CDI bar scaling AUTO En-route: end of SID or 30nm ENR displayed. Monitor GPS performance with traditional Navaids where possible. Arrival. Load from database, direct to FAF not allowed. 31nm to destination or first point of STAR, HSI displays TERM 2nm to FAF; HSI displays correct approach type (can we fly LPV but down to LNAV minima?) Loss of SBAS outside 1 min to FAF - HSI approach type Amber... 1 min to run APR ADVISORY / DOWNGRADE must be acknowledged and next best approach loads. Loss of SBAS inside 1 min to FAF - no CAS message, 3D downgrades to LNAV, LNAV aborts. Loss of SBAS inside FAF. 3D approaches abort.
