Q

When should the FO conduct the Taxi flow, how should it be conducted?

A
  • During initial taxi, wait until the Captain states “Brakes checked”
  • then select Flaps. Wait until flaps are in position and state “18 set”.
  • Then push controls fully

Q

Regarding stabilisation height, prior to comencing an approach the crew must what?

A

Establish a stabilisation height for the approach to be flown.
The stabilisation height must form part of the arrival briefing.
OM0A2 - 13.11.6.3

19
Q

A 500ft stabilisation height for an instrument approach may be planned when?

A

If the destinations includes a ceiling of at least 1500ft and vis of 3km or more. Aircraft must be configured by the FAF

20
Q

The captain may plan a 500ft stabilisation height when conducting a visual approach or an instrument approach in visual conditions. In this case, the aircraft must be configured by what height?
What needs to be configured?

A

1000ft

  • Gear down
  • Circling flap
  • Max Vref + 30kt
21
Q

Discontinuing the approach.

A missed approach must be flown if an approach:

A
  • is not stable
  • becomes unstable
  • is not being flown as briefed
22
Q

A stabilised approach is one in which all the criteria are acheived by the applicable min stabilisation height and maintained there after.

These criteria are:

A
  • Correct flight path
  • aircraft in landing config
  • only small changes in hdg and pitch
  • VS not greater than 1000ft/min
  • thrust appropriate for aircraft config
  • all briefings and checklists completed
  • speed not more than Vref +20kt and not less than Vref (small short term fluctuations outside acceptable)
23
Q

Additional stab approach criteria for the specific approach are:

A
  • ILS 1 dot of glideslope and localiser
  • Non precision app +- 5deg of inbound course or 1 dot track RNP
  • Vis app 1 light high or log papi
  • circling wings level by 300ft
24
Q

Stabilised approach thrust setting:

Stabilised approach, checklist in icing conditions can be?

A

Normal thrust setting for approach approx 60%
Not lower than 45% to be stabilised however if tailwind temorary reduction can be done

In icing conditions landing check list may be held to allow air and airframe anti-ice switching

25
Q

A visual approach configuation might look like?

A

3000ft - F18, 190 - 160
2500ft - Gear down
2100ft - F24
1500ft - F33
1000ft
500ft - stable

26
Q

When intercepting the ILS what actions:
When cleared ILS
When established on the LLZ

A

Cleared ILS - Select V/L (using HDG if necessary)

Established on the LLZ - Select GSL

27
Q

How is it flown?

A

25kt or greater at 55 deg

Up to 20% extra TO distance
