Abnormal And Memory Items

Question 1

In the emergency descent, what is meant by the speed max appropriate and what might you consider and why?

Answer 1

Is there damage (explosive decompression), should you use speed brakes or not?

Question 2

Stall on takeoff, what is the pitch attitude target?

Answer 2

TOGA 15

Question 3

Unreliable airspeed Thrust and Pitch targets. What are the targets:
Below thrust reduction
Above thrust reduction but below FL100
Above FL100

Answer 3

Below thrust reduction TOGA 15
Above but below FL100 CLB 10
Above FL100 CLB 5

Question 4

Windshear reactive
If the FD bars are not displayed, what is the target pitch?

Answer 4

17.5 degrees

Question 5

In the fuel leak checklist, why do we not select reversers?

Answer 5

To prevent contact between fuel and hot surfaces of engine and brakes

Question 6

Smoke removal
EMER ELEC config whilst carrying out the smoke removal checklist, what is the purpose for turning the generators back on after 3 minutes or 2000ft AGL?

Answer 6

For normal braking to help with the landing performance

Question 7

What are the loss of braking memory items?

Answer 7

Call “loss of braking”
Thrust levers to idle
Full reverse
Release brake pedals
Turn Anti-Skid & NWS switch to off
Apply brakes
If still no braking, use park brake in short, sharp amounts

Question 8

Emergency Descent memory items

Answer 8

PF
1. Oxygen masks
2. Emergency Descent initiate:
ALT turn pull
HDG turn pull
SPD pull
3. FMA announce
4. If A/THR is not active, THR levers idle
5. SPD BRK, if no damage, FULL

PM
1. Oxygen masks
2. Signs on
3. FMA check

Question 9

Stall Recovery

Answer 9

Call “Stall, I have Control”
Nose down pitch control to reduce AOA
Wings level

When out of the stall:
Increase thrust smoothly
Check speed brakes retracted
Recover flight path smoothly
If I’m clean CONFIG and below 20,000ft:
Select flap 1

Question 10

Stall Recovery at Lift-Off

Answer 10

Call “Stall, TOGA 15”
Select TOGA
Pitch to 15 degrees
Wings level

Question 11

Unreliable Speed Indication

Answer 11

Call “Unreliable Speed”
If safe conduct of the flight is impact (otherwise do nothing):
AP/FD off
A/THR off
Thrust:
Below Thrust reduction - TOGA 15
Thrust reduction - FL100 - CLB 10
Above FL100 - CLB 5
Flaps:
If CONF 0, 1, 2 or 3 - maintain
If CONF Full - select Flap 3
SPD Brake - retract
LG up

Question 12

GPWS/EGPWS warning

Answer 12

Call “Pull Up, TOGA”
AP off, full back stick, TOGA, check speed brakes retracted, wings level
Do not change CONFIG
Climb above MSA

When above MSA
Disconnect A/THR to get rid of A FLOOR
Pitch to 10 degrees
Call “Go-around flaps”
Clean up on schedule

Question 13

TCAS

Answer 13

TA
Reduce range to 10nm
Call “TCAS I have control” or “TCAS Blue”

RA
Take AP of and calls “AP off” (to stop A/THR going to idle or CLB power) and follows VSI

or
Keep AP on and monitor

PM
Transmit “TCAS RA”

Question 14

Windshear Warning (reactive)

Answer 14

Before V1 - reject take-off

Above V1
Call “Windshear TOGA”
Select TOGA, follow SRS and use full back stick if required
Maintain configuration until out of Windshear and keep AP on of engaged.
If FDs are not displayed, pitch 17.5 degrees and adjust to prevent loss of altitude

When clear of Windshear, call “go-around flaps” (make sure speed is safe and increasing”
