Q

What crew actions are required to prevent GLIDESLOPE alert during approach?

A

• During approach, make sure the correct altimeter setting is set on each altimeter, especially at higher temperatures.
• At or below applicable weather minima, when suitable visual references are established, transition to use of the VGSI path for the approach.
• If a GLIDESLOPE alert occurs in VMC at low altitude, after confirming the aircraft is on a safe VGSI (PAPI or VASI) path, the crew can do one or more of these steps:
- Silence the GLIDESLOPE aural and continue on the VGSI path
- Re-establish the FMC-based barometric IAN glide path and transition to a visual approach and landing in the touchdown zone
- Discontinue the approach.

Q

What crew actions are required to mitigate LNAV path deviations for certain SIDs?

A

• During preflight, if there are waypoints on a SID that are closer than approximately 10 NM and/or have course changes greater than approximately 120 degrees (total for all connected turns), manually insert a lower climb speed on the VNAV CLB page or waypoint speed constraint on the LEGS page that complies with the published speed restrictions.
• At high takeoff weights and with low airspeed constraints, delay flap retraction as necessary until the series of turns has been completed.
• Discuss navigation mitigation strategies, including informing ATC.

What is the latest point at which the Stabilized Approach criteria must be met during ILS/GLS and Non-ILS approaches?

A

1500 ft AAL is the point to have the aircraft in the briefed landing configuration. Stabilized by 1000 ft AAL; a Go Around must be executed if criteria are not met at 1000 ft AAL.

30
Q

Q

What is Etihad’s policy regarding orbits on final approach?

A

Orbit on the approach segment, below 2,000 ft AAL, is prohibited for any purpose.

33
Q

What is Etihad’s policy regarding landing within the touchdown zone?

A

The desired touchdown zone lies between 300 m to 600 m from the landing threshold. If touchdown cannot be accomplished within this zone, a missed approach should be initiated.

34
Q

What is Etihad’s policy regarding the decision to execute a go-around?

A

A decision to initiate a ‘Go-around’ rests with the Commander above 1,000 ft AAL; below 1,000 ft AAL, it shall be executed as soon as any active crew member calls out ‘GO-AROUND’.

35
Q

What is Etihad’s policy regarding consecutive missed approaches executed because of weather conditions?

A

If two consecutive missed approaches are executed for weather reasons, a third approach shall not be commenced unless significant weather improvement occurs.

36
Q

When is the Sterile Cockpit Policy in force?

A

The Sterile Cockpit Policy is in force from push back to Top of Climb and from Top of Descent until engine shut down.

37
Q

What is the No Contact Period and when is it valid?

A

The no-contact period is from the application of takeoff power until the landing gear is retracted and from the extension of the landing gear prior to landing until the aircraft has vacated the runway.

38
Q

When must the flight crew land at the nearest suitable airport?

A

Situations include any fire on board, engine failure, total loss of electrical power, persistent smoke, dual hydraulic failure, structural damage, positive bomb threat, and other significant safety concerns.

39
Q

What should be done in case of uncertainty about a clearance given by ATC?

A

Any uncertainty about a clearance must be resolved by asking ATC to repeat the clearance.

40
Q

Can a pilot request ATC for lateral or vertical flight path change if one pilot is absent from the cockpit?

A

No request for lateral or vertical change of the flight path is made to ATC when one pilot is absent from frequency.
