81: LVO GUIDELINES CHANGES Flashcards
Appropriate thrust rating as per the prevailing conditions to be used for LVTO. ( ___off is permitted, subject to performance limitations)
Flex take
Low visibility take-off (LVTO):
Requirement of minimum visual segment of ___ for take-off with RVR 125m has been removed.
90m
If one ND is lost during a CAT 3 approach, do we continue the approach?
- If ND fails below 1000 ft AGL On a CAT III Approach, it is not mandatory to GA.
- Above 1000 ft AGL:
Display Unit failure is covered under eQRH EIS Display Unit Failure and therefore constitutes a
‘Local Caution’.
In the case of: Amber caution (single chime), or Landing capability degradation (Triple Click).
COMPLETE ECAM / QRH PROCEDURE and CHECK REQUIRED EQUIPMENT
With Reverser 1 Fault; aircraft capability is CAT 3 Dual. Can CAT 11/ Ill landing be performed?
No.
Equipment required in accordance with regulation as given in para 7.5.4.2, Chapter 7, Operations Manual Part A and Para 9, DGCA CAR 8/C/I (AWO), must be serviceable, even if allowed by MEL, before commencing an LVO approach.
If an EDTO approved aircraft is doing a LVTO departure on a non EDTO sector; can an alternate be at 90 min distance?
No, to be “engaged in EDTO operations” means that the aircraft and operator have been approved for EDTO operations and the aircraft has been dispatched in accordance with applicable EDTO requirements.
Are the additives required to Alternate Planning Minima, for a PIC released with Restricted AOM?
For PIC with restricted minima, increment is to be applied to all AOMs including published Alternate Planning Minima for dispatch of a flight.
Is departure allowed with following TDZ/MID/END RV conditions?
350m/125m/100 when LVP in force?
No. (all need to be minimum 125m)
Yes. CAT I with exception: Company has approval for A320 CAT I & CAT II operations to DEL RWY 10/28 and CCU RWY 19L/01R without considering the relevance of stop-end VR. Flaps FULL and autobrake MED is mandatory.
What are the Take-off minima (RV and VIS) requirements with LVP in force/ not in force?
LVP not in force:
RV not available = 800m (Vis) RVR available = 550m (RVR)
LVP in force:
RVR available = 400m (non LVTO Pilots) 3 RVR available = 150m (LVTO Pilots) Centreline lights 30M Spacing) 3 RV available 125m (LVTO Pilots) Centreline lights 15M Spacing)
What is the minima required under various conditions?
The required take-off minima are:
LVP not enforced + RVR not available = Take-off minima 800m (Vis) LVP not enforced + RV available = Take-off minima 550m (RVR)
LVP enforced + RV available = Take-off minima 400m (non LVTO Pilots) LVP enforced + RV available (No Centreline lights) = Take-off minima 300m (LVTO Pilots) LVP enforced + RVR available+ Centreline lights = Take-off minima 200m (LVTO Pilots)
LVP enforced + 3 RVR available + Centreline lights (30M Spacing) = Take-off minima 150m = (LVTO Pilots) LVP enforced + 3 RVR available + Centreline lights (15M Spacing) = Take-off minima 125m (LVTO Pilots)
During CAT I|/II1 practice approach and Autoland, what should be inserted in the BARO/RADIO?
CAT II/III minima should be inserted in the RADIO field for a practice autoland.
While practicing a CAT I1/Ill approach and autoland in CAT I conditions the “100 Above” and “Minimum” callouts need to be made by 1 PM/CM2.
Visual references should be obtained at altitude appropriate for the CAT I approach.
During PIC upgrade SLF or PIC route checks; before taxi out, there is visibility drop leading to actual/forecast LVTO conditions?
This training/check flight shall be converted to a normal line flight with the Trainer as PIC operating from the LHS as PF, and the trainee PIC operating from RHS as PM (as Co-pilot).
During PIC upgrade SLF or PIC route checks; there is a visibility drop after taxi out leading to actual/forecast LVTO conditions?
This training/check flight shall be converted to a normal line flight with the Trainer as PIC operating from the LHS as PF, and the trainee PIC operating from RHS as PM (as Co-pilot).
Note: The aircraft must ___ for switching of seats. There is no need for a revised FRC, as the Trainer is already filed as PIC of the flight.
return to bay
During LVO, is a Captain authorized to fly from the RHS?
LVO CM1 must be PF
& PIC.
How do 2 Captains fly one-way command during LVO? Who is the PIC of the flight?
One-way command is authorized on a flight during LVO provided the Captain on the LHS is CAT Il/Ill authorized and current.
PIC with current LVO qualifications may perform RHS duties as PM during LVO.
The Captain on the LHS will be PIC of the flight.
In case of Delay on ground (IROPS), when can the crew expect catering to be activated?
At D+30, cabin crew will serve tea and coffee on board.
Beyond D+60, the station in charge arranges for catering to be served on board. The crew will be informed about the tentative delivery time. For further details refer to C-NOTAM-IROP Joint Circular.
