Q

When would OTS Cat 2 be used?

What is the advantage over Cat 2?

A

Can use a lesser lighting system.

Mitigated by the use of a higher RVR and an autoland.

A

If you can secure the engine, sort the downgrade and change the minima by the approach ban continue.

Q

No flare at 30ft, visual references insufficient

A

Go around!

19
Q

No flare at 30ft, visual

A

Disconnect AP and continue visually

20
Q

AP off at 100ft, not visual

A

Go around!

Red autoland light

21
Q

Engine fire on approach

A

CONTINUE

22
Q

When does the autoland light activate and when do you consider it?

A

Arms at 200ft

Activates when

  1. Loss of both APs
  2. Loss of LOC or greater than 1/4 dot, above 15ft RA
  3. Loss of G/S or greater than 1 dot, above 100ft RA
  4. Rad alts differ by 15ft
  5. FMGCs detect a long flare
23
Q

When would LTS Cat 1 be used?

What is the advantage over Cat 1?

A

When a lesser visibility can be accepted, a lower RVR.

Mitigated by use of autoland and Cat 2 visual reference

24
Q

What is NPA minima?

A

750m RVR

250ft MDH

25
Q

Below the approach ban what 5 things would you go around for?

What noises do they make?

A
  1. AP disconnect - cavalry charge
  2. Downgrade/loss of cat 3 - triple click
  3. Amber caution - single chime
  4. Engine fail
  5. Alpha floor
26
Q

When do LVPs come into force?

A

600m RVR

200ft cloud base (BKN or OVC)

27
Q

Cat 1 minima and visual reference

A

550m RVR

200 ft DH

Visual reference = runway or approach lights

28
Q

Cat 3a minima and visual reference

A

200m RVR

50ft DH

Visual reference = 3 lights

29
Q

Cat 3b No DH minima and visual reference

A

75m RVR

NO DH

No visual reference

30
Q

Cat 3b with DH minima and visual reference

A

125m RVR

50ft DH

1 centreline light

31
Q

Anti skid fails

A

Downgrade to Cat 3a
Minimum DH 50ft
Disengage AP at touchdown

32
Q

Incorrect course set at 350ft

A

Downgrade to Cat 2
Minimum DH 100ft
Disengage AP at 50ft latest

33
Q

Nose wheel steering failed

A

Downgrade to Cat 3a
Minimum DH 50ft
Disengage AP at touchdown

34
Q

What happens at 800ft on an autoland approach?

A

Landing inhibit

35
Q

What happens at 700ft on an autoland approach?

A

Data lock FMGC and ILS tuning locked

36
Q

What happens at 400ft on an autoland approach?

A

Should get LAND FMA, 350ft at the latest, as well as the FCU modes locking.

PM checks ILS course is correct

If no LAND - GO AROUND

37
Q

What happens at 200ft on an autoland approach?

A

Autoland light arms

38
Q

What happens at 40ft on an autoland approach?

A

Should get FLARE FMA

If no FLARE and not visual - GO AROUND
If no FLARE and visual - disconnect and continue manually

39
Q

What happens at 30ft on an autoland approach?

A

THR IDLE FMA

40
Q

What happens at 10ft on an autoland approach?

A

‘Retard’ callout

41
Q

What is the effect of rollout or lack of rollout guidance on RVR?

A

For Cat 2 and Cat 3a if you have rollout guidance the midpoint RVR can be reduced to 75m. If not the midpoint RVR is 125m

42
Q

Do you need an RVR for the stop end?

A

Only if its going to be used in the landing roll.

43
Q

What is the minimum RVR with an unqualified crew member?

A

150m

44
Q

What is the stop margin?

A

= The portion of the runway not used for stopping.

= ASDA - ASD. But very conservative when using a flex temp
