Call response prior to brake check
Loadmaster ready
Before take off response

OPAWARE Organisational Physiological Airport Weather Air traffic Role Environment
If I need to supervise pushback
NLG pin, chocks and ground power removed
Which engines need to be running to operate the NWS
3+4 need to be operating at run
Trim for ERCC?
1st trim may remain valid for local trading sorties if
ZFW not changed more than 400kgs
Oncoming ALM calculates new TO CG
What power source should be used on the ground in hot weather Ops
The use of external power should be maximised to reduce APU load
At what brake temperature is it advisable to shutdown and chock the aircraft as soon as possible in order to allow the parking brake to be released
> 500”C
AST considerations
Brief everyone including hand signals
If AST vents upwards position away from wings and idealy attached to to vehicle in the event of an emergency
AST required prior to shutdown of last engine if no bleed air available. If no AST then you need fire cover
Crew incapacitation
Either obvious or subtle (most dangerous)
Land at ANSA (At Nearest Suitable Airfield)
Pilot call PAN or MAYDAY
Consider phase of flight to decide of to remove from seat
Administer first aid including possible use of 100% oxygen
Lower cabin altitude if possible
Normal Ops ICAO crash cat
8
Can be reduced to 6 but read notes ( POB =<15 and no pax)
Minimum fuel at destination
3T + burn to alternate airfield
ERO SOP located?
Part B applied
How long is pre-flight and weekly servicing valid for
Pre-flight servicing 36 hours from completion
Weekly servicing 6 days from completion
Considerations for carrying AMED
Cabin altitude due to the expansion of gases in body cavities
What should you complete for the captain prior to walking out to the aircraft
Auth sheet ALM risk matrix
What temperatures are considered cold conditions
10’C to -30’C
Securing the aircraft in cold weather conditions
Below 0’C use of ditching switch protection covers and water system draining
Below - 10’C liaise with GEv reference removal of batteries
At what temperature is extreme cold conditions
≥ -30
Part B lists ALM Quart currencies
ALM currency 31 days either flight, SIM or duty ALM
Must operate in the air every 90 days
ALM currency/competency requirements and BCR list is located in Part B Basic
How long should observing duties be conducted for in the PTD
30 mins to reduce fatigue
What first aid training do we need
Only Mod 1 refresher training 12 months
Minimum seat load lateral clearance
12 in that can be reduced to 11 in if unavoidable
Location of hand luggage
If over 50% of seats next the pallets are used then all bags ( pax and spt crew) will be stored elsewhere.
Small items can be retained
Pax weights reduced to 86 kgs on CLP

DDH has accepted chains me exceptionally cross passenger aisleways provided
they can be easily that over
Vibration zone for pax
FR 30-34

Consideration must be given to passengers located near the MFC on long flights
Use of urinals
MFC used- prohibited
On short flights in warm climates without MFC ALM discretion
Notify the GE for servicing
Arbitrary limits
400 ‘passenger’ hours, read packs numbers in OM
Access to aft escape hatch
If load plan blocks the attachment points and pax/spt crew are carried then read OM
Normal loading time
2.30 hrs before off chocks
2 hrs for passenger moves
When should TDUs be reviewed
Prior to powering the aircraft
CED pax limit
10 in clean fatigues
AMED CLP and Stretcher positions
In OM Pt B
Which loads are not suitable for ERO
Any winch in more than single haul
Unservicable vehicles
Standard ERO
Via the ramp (non standard would use the CED if ramp not available) ref: FOB
