What should be selected once level after a go-around?
FLCH.
Should inhibited checklists and deferred items be read?
Only deferred items. Inhibited checklists do not need to be read.
What can FO call stop for?
Fire, engine failure, wind shear, RAAS. Blocked runway and significant handling difficulty when handling.
What is the call at 1,000ft?
Stable, man land/ autoland, ___ft baro.
What is the stable approach criteria?
- In the planned landing configuration
- Stable on the correct vertical and lateral profile
- Stabilised at the target approach speed
When can an aircraft be above the target approach speed and by how much?
Only during rapid wind changes, turbulence or adherence to ATC speed requirements. Max of 20knots above approach speed.
Actions for rejected landing?
Call, “Go around”
Disengage autopilot and auto throttle.
Max thrust (aggressively).
Prevent attitude from rising rapidly.
Rotate towards 15 degrees.
When safely climbing away, standard go-around procedure.
Action for EGPWS warning?
Call, “Pull up, go-around”
Disengage autopilot and autothrottle.
Max thrust (aggressively).
Wings level and initial pitch attitude of 20 degrees simultaneously.
Retract speed brakes.
If terrain is a threat, pull back to PLIs and stick shaker or initial buffet.
When clear of terrain, decrease pitch attitude, allow speed to build and go-around procedure.
Actions of manual wind shear escape manoeuvre?
Call, “Windshear, go-around”.
Disengage autopilot.
TOGA switch, max thrust and disconnect auto throttle.
Wings level and rotate towards 15 degrees.
Retract speed brakes.
What are the actions once level and flaps retracted following a single engine go-around?
Check CON power set and once obstacles cleared, select ENG OUT (VNAV climb page).
What is the NHP call when a reverser isn’t functioning?
No reverse left/right engine.
What are the FIRE ENG memory items?
Autothrottle arm switch.
Thrust lever.
Fuel control switch.
Engine fire switch pull and turn once.
NNC.
Should the fire switch be pulled for Engine Severe Damage and separation?
Yes, pull but don’t turn.
What speed increment should be added to approach speed when autothrottle isn’t used?
Half of steady head wind and all gust factor. 5kts minimum and 15kts maximum.
What checklist should be overridden after completing the engine fire checklist?
Engine fail checklist.
How should a visual circuit be flown?
Abeam touchdown zone: Flap 5, flap 5 speed. 55% N1. Start timer.
35 seconds: Gear down, flap 20 speed, and arm speed brake.
50-90 seconds: Landing flap, approach speed, landing checklist and IDs off.
What are unacceptable deviations during Windshear?
15 knots indicated airspeed
500 FPM vertical speed
5 degrees pitch attitude
1 dot displacement from the glideslope
unusual thrust lever position for a significant period of time
What is the take-off alternate flying time for an ETOPs aeroplane?
120 minutes in still air at one-engine-inoperative cruising speed.
What are the engine warm up requirements for GE and RRs?
GE = 3 mins
RR = 5 mins (or 3 minutes if engines have been shut down for less that 1.5 hours)
What are the wingspans of the 777 200 & 300?
200 - 61m
300 - 65m
At what speed will auto brake not activate during an RTO?
85 knots
Engine auto start memory items?
Fuel control switch OFF
What are the checklist actions following an EFATO?
NNC then after take-off checklist.
Max cross wind for a side slip landing?
28 knots
When flying a TCAS RA how should the manoeuvre be flown regarding the PFD?
Out of trapezoid AND red VS bar
Does Flight Director need to be called by PF during autopilot disconnect before landing?
No
What is the recommended rotation rate during at EFATO?
1.5-2 degrees per second
When does the Fuel Quantity Low EICAS enunciate?
2 tonnes per side
Checklist can be done early
What are the actions when an airspeed unreliable event occurs at or after v1?
Maintain takeoff thrust, set 15° pitch attitude, retract the landing gear and maintain flap configuration. Climb at 15° pitch attitude until reaching acceleration height. At acceleration height, do the Airspeed Unreliable NNC memory items and checklist.
Windshear on take-off roll
If windshear is encountered prior to V1, there may not be sufficient runway remaining to stop if an RTO is initiated at V1. At VR, rotate at a normal rate toward a 15 degree pitch attitude. Once airborne, perform the Windshear Escape Maneuver.
If windshear is encountered near the normal rotation speed and airspeed suddenly decreases, there may not be sufficient runway left to accelerate back to normal takeoff speed. If there is insufficient runway left to stop, initiate a normal rotation at least 2,000 feet before the end of the runway even if airspeed is low. Higher than normal attitudes may be required to lift off in the remaining runway. Ensure maximum thrust is set.
Minimum cleared width and minimum width for take-off
40m and 45m
Definition of contaminated?
Significant portion of the runway covered in more than 3mm of contaminant
Takeoffs are not recommended when slush, wet snow, or standing water depth is more than?
1/2 inch (13 mm)
Take offs are not recommended when dry snow depth is more than
4 inches (102 mm).
