Q

MISSED APPROACH FUEL BURN CRJ 200

A

500 lb

41
Q

COLD WEATHER - APPROACH (CRJ 200) explain the step by step and why?

A

1) Prior to extending flaps for all approaches with TAT 10°C (50°F) or less, start the APU,
2) use the bleed source of the APU, and turn the WING ANTI-ICE ON.
This will prevent the “Bleed Misconfig” message

42
Q

Can you turn off the wing anti ice system during the approach?
Yes when fully configured for landing and the following conditions are met:

A
  • ICE is not annunciated by the ice detection system, and
  • Not in icing conditions.
43
Q

When the APU bleed source is not available (deferred or INOP), “ICE” is not annunciated by the ice detection system, and not in icing conditions, the ‘Bleed Misconfig” message is temporarily allowed. (The message is cleared when the WING ANTI-ICE is turned OFF after fully configured.) When the ICE message is displayed or in icing conditions, operation of anti-ice systems is required. The unpressurized landing procedure for the APU INOP is appropriate, if required.

A
44
Q

When anti-ice equipment is required during approach/landing: what do you need to do with the APU?

A

APU START
BLEED AIR TRANSFER TO APU

45
Q

“CABIN ALT WARN HI” status message illuminates during an approach to land at an airport with a pressure altitude above 8,000 ft: what do you need to do?

A
  • The PF must use supplemental oxygen
  • A missed approach or go-around is not necessary
46
Q

What is gust factor ?

A

the difference between the maximum gust and steady wind velocity.

47
Q

Calculate the gust factors with the airspeed?

A

Approach airspeed should be VREF plus 50% of the gust factor; minimum VREF+5, maximum VREF+10.

48
Q
  • For winds of 25/G35, fly VREF+5
  • For winds of 10/G30, fly VREF+10
    Gust factor can be adjusted on final relative to actual conditions.
A
49
Q

MISSED APPROACH FLAP FAIL CONSIDERATIONS with CRJ 200. Explain the AD.

A

Don’t start the approach with adding flaps unless:

  • Visibility and ceiling
  • An emergency or abnormal situation occurs that requires landing at the nearest suitable airport; or
  • The fuel remaining is sufficient to conduct the approach, execute a missed approach, divert to a suitable airport with the flaps extended to the landing position, conduct an approach at the airport, and land with 1,000 lb of fuel remaining
50
Q

FLAP FAIL AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE (CRJ 200)

Note 1 - The fuel burn factor (refer to QRH Volume 2 Flap Fail) shall be applied to the normal fuel consumption for calculation of the flaps extended missed approach, climb, diversion, and approach fuel consumption.

A
51
Q

FLAP FAIL AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE (CRJ 200)
Note 2 - Terrain and weather must allow a minimum flight altitude not exceeding 15,000 ft along the diversion route.

A
52
Q

FLAP FAIL AIRWORTHINESS DIRECTIVE (CRJ 200)
Note 3 - For the purpose of this AD, a “suitable airport” is an airport having at least one usable runway, served by an instrument approach when operating under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) and the airport is equipped as per the applicable regulations and standards for marking and lighting. The existing and forecasted weather for this airport shall be at or above landing minima for the approach in use.

A
53
Q

NO SLAT / FLAP OR NO FLAP CONFIGURATION

A
  • autopilot is recommended
  • Check landing distance
  • Limit bank angle to 20°
  • Establish a long final approach at recommended speed
  • Attitude and speed are higher than normal
  • Establish landing configuration early
  • Plan touchdown at the 1,000 ft touchdown zone marker
  • Flare just enough to reduce the rate of descent; do not float
  • Over threshold, set thrust levers to IDLE
  • After nosewheel touchdown, use max reverse thrust, and brake as appropriate

60
Q

Whenever windshear is suspected during landing, the following precautions must be taken:

A
  • During approach, maintain VREF with the applicable wind additive correction
  • Select flaps 45, unless limited by other landing performance consideration
  • When possible, plan to land on the longest runway available with the lowest possibility of a windshear encounter
  • Monitor airspeed trends during the approach. When the approach becomes unstabilized, perform the missed approach procedure
  • Develop an awareness of normal airspeed, attitude, and vertical speed. Closely monitor the vertical flight path instruments and call out any deviations
