A
32
Q

RIBETS: Emergency brief

“Above 80kt and below V1 we will ONLY stop for” (5)

A

“Fire
Fire warning
Engine failure
Predictive windshear
Any condition that makes the aircraft unsafe or unable to fly”

33
Q

RIBETS: Emergency brief

“If I call STOP I will: “ (9)

A

“Close the trust levers
Disengage the auto throttle
Confirm RTO function or apply maximum manual braking
Raise the speed brakes
Apply maximum reverse
Stop the aircraft into wind
Cancel reverse
Stow the speed brakes
Set the parking brake

What will your actions be?”

34
Q

RIBETS: Emergency brief

“If you call STOP I will:” (6)

A

Call speed brakes UP or sb. NOT UP
Call thrust reversers Normal or Abnormal Indications
Verify your actions or call any omissions
Call 60kt and runway distance remaining
Select Flaps 40 when brakes are set
Inform ATC of the reject

35
Q

RIBETS: Emergency brief

Captains next actions after setting parking brakes

A

“We will identify the failure and carry out any drills as appropriate.
If we decide to evacuate we will read and do the evacuation checklist.
I will make the following PA:

THIS IS AN EMERGENCY, EVACUATION THE AIRCRAFT USING ALL AVAILABLE EXITS (x2)”

36
Q

RIBETS: Emergency brief

“If the call is KEEP GOING”

A

“No actions below 400ft (AAL) except:
- Cancel any warnings
- Raise landing gear with PRC
- Coordinate aircraft with rudder and apply trim

Above 400ft:
- Select HDG SEL
- Complete any memory items

Above MFRA and with engine secure:
- Select BUG UP and accelerate the aircraft, retracting flaps as normal

At FLAPS UP, NO LIGHTS call:
- I will call for level change and MCT
- I will engage Autopilot
- We will climb to an altitude above MSA
- Complete and QRH Drills and the After Take-off Checklist”

37
Q

RIBETS: Taxi route

A

First officer describes route (“We are on stand 36 and expect to taxi…”).
Mention hotspots

Captain: “Check”

38
Q

RIBETS: SID

A
39
Q

Navaid reversion script

A

First officer:

“If LNAV fails:”
[Describe reversion using HDG SEL and VOR/LOC modes.
[Confirm initial selection of Navaids]
“If necessary both NDs will be set to VOR mode”

40
Q

Use of no smoking sign switch

A

Doesn’t affect the cabin, used as a reminder for cabin status:
ON: Cabin secure
OFF: Cabin not secure

41
Q

Cabin crew communication: Up to TOC

A

During Taxi, FO (not taxiing) presses “ATTEND” to request cabin secure.
CSS presses “DOOR ENTRY REQUEST” to confirm.
FO then switches smoking switch ON.

Entering runway, FO makes PA: “Cabin Crew seats for departure”

If no turb, once flaps/slats are up, PF says “release cabin crew”.
PM presses “ATTEND” and switches smoking OFF.

Passing FL100 PF instructs PM to switch fasten seatbelt sign OFF.

42
Q

Cabin crew communication: From TOD

A

Passing FL150 PF instructs PM to switch fasten seatbelt sign OFF.

Passing FL100 PM makes PA: “Cabin crew, 10 minutes to landing”.

CSS presses “DOOR ENTRY REQUEST” once secure and PM switches smoking ON.

43
Q

Abnormal cabin crew calls:
Emergency situation (engine failure)

A

“Number one to the flight deck/interphone”, switch on fasten seatbelt sign simultaneously.

[CSS comes to interphone/flight deck, rest of CC secure the aircraft]

“Is there anything you can tell me?” ….
“This is a NITS brief:”
Nature: “The L engine has failed and been secured”
Intentions: “We are returning/diverting to XYZ”
Time: “We are landing in 15 mins”
Special Instructions: “This will be a normal landing”

Ask them to read it back

44
Q

External lighting setup:
Taxiing
Entering runway
Cleared to take-off
After take-off and gear retraction
Passing FL100 (climb)

A
45
Q

External lighting setup:
Passing FL100 (descent) [+ emergency descent]
Landing gear extension
Cleared to land
After GA and gear retraction

A
46
Q

Who controls the autopilot?

A

Whilst autopilot is engaged, PF controls it.

Whilst it is disengaged, PM controls it following instructions from PF.

47
Q

Making MCP inputs in response to clearances - timing

A

OK to make parameter changes whilst reading back to ATC.
DO NOT make mode changes until read back is complete and a gap is left for ATC to correct the readback.

No need to write clearances down which can delay past working memory time of other pilot.

48
Q

Use of auto-throttle

A

Along with autopilot when 2 engines operating.
NOT used when single engine.
Not recommended for speed control in manual flight.

49
Q

Automation engagement sequence

A

PM activates FD (PF side first).
PF commands suitable modes/parameters, which PM enters into MCP and confirms.
PF engages autopilot.
PF engages autothrottle.

50
Q

Calls for preparatory AP modes

A

Person making the selection calls:
“[mode] ARMED”
Then when it activates:
“[mode] CAPTURE”

51
Q

Exceptions to AP mode callouts

A

1) FMA calls not required during take-off roll
2) Transient modes whilst modes are being selected (e.g. V/S mode activated whilst altitudes being selected before going to Level Change)

52
Q

Call if an expected AP mode hasn’t activated

A

“NO [mode]”

e.g. “NO LNAV”

53
Q

G/A under autopilot

A

If 2 auto-pilots (dual channel) are engaged (only allowed for approach mode, i.e. ILS), pushing TO/GA results in one autopilot remaining connected for the G/A.

In case of single channel ILS, pushing TO/GA results in manual control.

54
Q

Three windows of MA in order

A

THRUST - ROLL - PITCH

55
Q

How long does green box stay around a mode once activated

A

10 seconds

56
Q

Thrust settings for LVL CHG climb or descent

A

Full thrust (N1), or
Idle thrust

57
Q

Considerations for which FD is turned on first

A

The PF side FD should be turned on first so it becomes the master.

Each will use a different NAV (NAV 1/NAV 2) so needs to be correct.

58
Q
A
