Question 1

Flap Manoeuvering Speed

Answer 1

Flaps up vref30+80
….
Flaps 30 vref30

Question 2

Flaps Manoeuvering Speed guarantee…

Answer 2

… at least full manoeuvering capability or at least 40 degree (25 + 15 overshoot) to stick shaker within a few thousand feed of airport altitude. While the flaps may be extended up to 20.000 ft, less manoeuvere margin to stick shaker exists for a fixed speed as altitude increases.

Question 3

Minimum Manoeuvering Speeds

Flaps Down Amber Band

Answer 3

Top of amber band: full Manoeuvre speed (1.3 g or 40 degree bank) to stick shaker. Does not vary with G load, based on current air speed and angle of attack

Middle of amber band: decreased manoeuvre speed (1 g or 30 degree bank (15+15))

Bottom of amber band: stick shaker depending on current g load

Question 4

Minimum Manoeuvering Speeds

Flaps Up Amber Band

Answer 4

Up to 10.000ft: like flaps down

Between 10.000ft - 20.000ft: adequte manoeuvre capability

Above 20.000ft: 1.3 g manoeuvre capability to low speed buffet

Question 5

Command speed landing

Answer 5

A/T on: vref+5
A/T on gusty wind: vref+10

A/T off: vref+5 plus 1/2 HW plus full gust

Question 6

Reference speeds?

Answer 6

V1 Vr V2
Vref

V2 provides at least 30 degree bank capability (15 + 15).

Question 7

Descend rate at low altitude

Answer 7

Above 3000 ft: 50% of alt

3000 - 1000 ft: 1500 ft/min

Below 1000 ft: 1000 ft/min

Question 8

Behavior of aircraft with contaminated wing

Answer 8

Nose-up pitch tendency during rotation
