[AOM.6.20.1, Introduction]
Describe Primary 28 Vdc loads, Primary 235 Vac loads and Large Motor power loads.
[AOM.6.20.7]
Why do you think FLT deck instruments & displays are powered by 28 Vdc?
I think it is because DC power provides stable and predictable voltages, which is crucial for sensitive equipment.
R: So that it ca draw power from battery backup.
How many batteries are installed and what components are powered?
Main Battery:
1. Airplane power-up

[AOM.6.20.2]
Thrust rating of the engines.
Rolce Royce Trent 1000K: 74 400 pounds
[AOM.7.20.1]
What is Thrust Asymmetry Protection (TAP)?
Tap is an automatic feature that provides protection against asymmetric thrust during takeoff or go around by limiting thrust on the higher thrust engine.
V2, Vref
Flight controls must be in Normal Mode.
EEC may be Normal or Alternate Modes.
[AOM.7.20.13]
Describe TAP indication on EICAS.
Current TPR less than Reference/Target TPR.

Abnormal ENG Start. Is there an unannunciated checklist?
Only for “Aborted ENG Start”
- FCS CUTOFF
Altitude restriction for APU start.
- None.
- May be started up to 14 000ft in flight with no pumps operating.
- 5min cooldown after second start attempt.
[AOM. 7.30.1]
What does APU supply?
- Engine start
- The 235 Vac electical buses (Only 2 buses on ground)
[AOM.7.30.1]
APU Operating modes (attended/unattended).
Attended mode (One engine starting or in flight)
- Shutdown - 15sec - Fire extinguisher
1. APU fire
2. Overspeed
3. APU controller failure
4. Speed droop
5. APU start failure
6. Air inlet door failed closed
Unattended mode (No engines started and on ground)
- Shutdown - Fire extinguisher
1. High EGT
2. High oil temperature
3. Low oil pressure
[AOM.7.30.3]
ENG Fire Extinguishing.
- Fire and overheat detection
- Multiple dual-channel detectors
- 2 bottles
[AOM.8.20.3]
ENG Fire. Why do you need to wait for 30 seconds prior to second bottle discharge?
It can result in failure of the shared duct due to overpressurisation and thus total loss of fire extinguishing capability.
[B787 INFORMATION.200.page (7/7)]
APU Fire extinguishing.
- Dual fire detector loops
- No overheat detection
- 15 sec delay when attended mode

- HYD Press System C
- Movement rate slowed to less than 50%
- Flap/slat primary control failure
- Flap/slat disagree
- Uncommanded flap/slat motion
[AOM.9.20.26]
When will you use Flap/Slat Alternate mode?
When commanded by ECL.
[] FLAP/SLAT CONTROL
Slat Autogap/Pregap.

[AOM.9.20.27-28]
Cruise Flaps.
Automatic funtion that improves cruise performance by moving flaps, ailerons, flaperons and spoilers depending on wieght, airspeed and altitude.
[AOM.9.20.28]
HUD symbology modes (full/decluttered).
[AOM.10.22.2]
[TM.8-1-(26)]
[TM.11-2-3 HUD]
During strong crosswinds, which HUD symbology mode will you use?
During strong crosswinds, FPV may display a dashed outline. Selecting decluttered mode increases the viewing area of the FPV and may change the FPV symbol back to solid, displaying the current flight path of the airplane.
How many fuel pumps are installed?
- 2 AC pumps in each tank
- 1 DC pump in left take
- 7 in total
[AOM.12.20.1]
If all the fuel pumps are inoperative, can the engines keep on running?
Once the dissolved air is depleted at TOC, the engine should effectively operate on suction feed.
[AOM.12.20.3]
Fuel Tank locations and capacities.
[AOM. 12.20.4-5]

What is the purpose of Nitrogen Generation System (NGS)?
Generates nitrogen enriched air into fuel tanks to displace fuel vapors in all tanks. Minimises flammability.
