Awo

Question 1

Low visibility operations are defined as?

Answer 1

Takeoff with RVR less than 400m

Landing with RVR less than 550m

Question 2

RVR deterioration procedures?

Answer 2

Above 1000ft AAL

• continue to 1000ft
• if the RVR remains below LVO minima at 1000ft AAL missed approach shall be flown.

Below 1000ft AAL

• approach may be continued to the DH
• if required visual reference is established land
• if the required visual reference is not established a missed approach shall be flown

Question 3

When is auto throttle/ auto thrust mandatory for a LVO approach?

Answer 3

When conducting a CAT 3B

Question 4

AWO equipment deterioration procedures?

Answer 4

Above 1000ft AAL
- if an aircraft or airport system failure necessitates a reversion to a degraded approach category the approach shall not descend below 1000ft AAL unless the reported RVR readings are at or above the minima for the degraded approach category.

Below 1000ft AAL
- a missed approach shall be flown if an aircraft or airport systems failure necessaries a reversion to a degraded approach category unless the reported RVR readings are at or above the minima for the degraded approach category or adequate visual reference is established.

Below 1000ft AAL reversion minima may be used but the decision height on the PFD must not be changed.

Question 5

An instrument approach must not be conducting in what viability unless RVR information is provided for runway of intended use?

Answer 5

For visibility less than 800M

Question 6

Precision approach lighting system layout?

Answer 6

PALS provide additional visual guidance from 300M before the landing runway threshold to 900M from the runway stop point.

Question 7

Runway centre line lights RCLL layout?

Answer 7

White in colour from the threshold to a point 900M from the runway stop end.

Question 8

When do runway centre line lights change colour from white?

Answer 8

900M-300M from the runway end they alternate red/white.

300M from the end of the runway stop end they change to red

Question 9

Colour of runway exit lights?

Answer 9

Alternate green and yellow lights which lead to taxiway centre line lights.

Question 10

Taxiway centreline lights colours?

Answer 10

Change to green when the aircraft is clear of ILS sensitive areas.

Question 11

Procedure for downgraded ground equipment?

Answer 11

Navtech supplement detail requirements. However airport authorities are responsible for full compliance prior to providing approach clearance.

There is no requirement for flight crew to consult the navtech supplement during an approach.

Question 12

What is required on both PFDs for a CAT 3B approach?

Answer 12

LAND 3 on both PFDs

Question 13

What is required on both PFDs for a CAT 3A approach?

Answer 13

LAND 2 on both PFDs

Question 14

What is required on both PFDs for a CAT 2 approach?

Answer 14

LAND 2 on both PFDs

Question 15

What category approach can be flown with NO AUTOLAND displayed?

Answer 15

CAT 1 approach may be flown

Question 16

Crew actions with any EICAS alert below the alert height?

Answer 16

Continue the approach using automatic landing and rollout unless NO AUTOLAND is displayed.

Question 17

What crew actions are required for a MASTER CAUTION below alert height?

Answer 17

If signal indicates a critical failure to AUTOLAND system a go around must be made unless visual conditions permit a manual landing may also be made. Disengage autopilot prior to 100ft RA
