Automation Flashcards
Scenario
You are on the KRNO RNAV(RNP)Z 17L approach, established on the RF Leg between OQIKO and YETUD, ATC cancels your approach clearance and instructs you to fly the published missed approach.
Q.3.1. What are some considerations while executing the missed approach?
Maximum airspeed on the RF Leg
Lateral flight path tolerances
Deleting the manually entered RNP value
Reference: AOM 11.5.2, AIM 5-5-5
Q.3.2. What effect does selecting TO/GA have on the roll mode in this situation?
LNAV remains the active mode.
Reference: AOM 11.5.2
Q.3.3. What effect would selecting TO/GA have on the pitch mode in this situation?
The F/Ds command 15º nose up pitch. After reaching a programmed rate of climb, pitch commands the target airspeed for each flap setting based on maximum takeoff weight calculations. This may exceed maximum airspeed for the RF leg.
Reference: FRM 4.2.2.7.2
Q.3.4. What effect would selecting TO/GA have on the Autothrottle mode in this situation?
With the first push of either TO/GA switch, A/T (if armed) engages in GA and advances thrust toward the reduced go-around N1 to produce 1,000 to 2,000 fpm rate of climb, if the aircraft is below 2,000 ft RA.
Reference: FRM 4.2.4.3.7
Q.3.5. How would you terminate the TO/GA mode from the F/D when desired?
If the aircraft is below 400 ft RA, both F/D switches must be turned off.
If the aircraft is above 400 ft RA, select a different pitch or roll mode.
Selecting either Autopilot to CMD (changes pitch mode to LVL CHG).
Reference: FRM 4.2.4.3.7
Q.3.6. When initiating a go-around, the Pilot rotates smoothly toward what pitch attitude before following flight director guidance?
15°
Reference: AOM 11.5.2, AOM 11.5.3
Q.3.7. What happens to the Autopilot when TO/GA is selected?
Autopilot (if engaged) disengages.
Reference: FRM 4.2.4.3.7
Q.3.8. What happens to the IAS/Mach display when TO/GA is selected?
The IAS/Mach display blanks.
Reference: FRM 4.2.4.3.7
