Boeing Flight manouvers Flashcards
How would respond to a TA?
Look for traffic using traffic display as a guide. Call out any conflicting traffic
If traffic is sighted, maneuver if needed.
How would you respond to a RA?
If a manoeuvre is required?
1. Disengage the autopilot
2. Disengage the Autothrottle
3. Smoothly adjust pitch and thrust to satisfy the RA command. Follow the planned lateral flight path unless visual contact with the conflicting traffic requires other action.
4. In the landing configuration; call for flaps 20, verify positive rate and call “gear up”
Actions for upset recovery? Generic Etihad
Disengage the autopilot
Disengage the auto throttle
Recover:
•push - Apply nose down elevator. Apply as much elevator as needed to obtain a nose down pitch rate
• Roll in the shortest direction to wings level. If bank angle is more than 90 degrees, unload and roll* Complete the recovery:
• power - Adjust thrust and drag, if needed.
- Stabilise
What are the actions in case of “MONITOR RADAR DISPLAY”?
Maneuver as required to avoid the windshear
What are your actions for Predictive windshear warning during takeoff roll: (“WINDSHEAR AHEAD, WINDSHEAR AHEAD”?
• prior to V1, reject takeoff
• after V1, perform the Windshear Escape Maneuver
What are you actions if winshear is encountered during the Take Off Roll?
If continuing…. At vR rotate to 15 degrees pitch attitude Once airborne, perform the Windshear Escape Maneuver.
If windshear encounters at VR and speed DECREASES. Acceleration back to take off speed may be insufficient. Latest point to rotate is 600m (2000ft) before the end of the runway even if airspeed is low. Higher pitch attitudes may be required, ensure max thrust set.
For a predictive wind shear - “GO-AROUND, WINDSHEAR AHEAD”?
Perform Windshear Escape Maneuver or, at pilot’s discretion, perform a normal go-around.
How do we know that an airplane is in wind shear and What are the expected deviation parameters?
• The windshear warning (two-tone siren followed by “WINDSHEAR,WINDSHEAR,WINDSHEAR”) or
• unacceptable flight path deviations
Airplane below 1000ft and uncontrolled changes in parameters of:
• 15 knots indicated airspeed
• 500 FPM vertical speed
• 5 degrees pitch attitude
• 1 dot displacement from the glideslope
• unusual thrust lever position for a significant period of time
What is the winshear escape manoeuvre?
MANUAL FLIGHT
• Calls “WINDSHEAR TOGA” • Disconnect autopilot
• Push either TO/GA switch
• Aggressively apply maximum* thrust
• Disconnect autothrottle(s)
• Simultaneously roll wings level and rotate toward an initial pitch attitude of 15°
MANUAL FLIGHT • Calls “WINDSHEAR TOGA” • Disconnect autopilot • Push either TO/GA switch • Aggressively apply maximum* thrust • Disconnect autothrottle(s) • Simultaneously roll wings level and rotate toward an initial pitch attitude of 15°
• Verify the speedbrakes are retracted
• Follow flight director TO/GA guidance
• Do not change gear or flap configuration until windshear is no longer a factor
• Maintain wings level to maximize climb gradient, unless a turn is required for obstacle clearance
• Monitor vertical speed and altitude
• Do not attempt to regain lost airspeed until windshear is no longer a factor
What is the response to GPWS WARNING, “PULL UP
“OBSTACLE OBSTACLE PULL UP”
or “TERRAIN TERRAIN PULL UP”
• Disconnect autopilot
• Disconnect autothrottle(s)
• Aggressively apply maximum* thrust
• Simultaneously roll wings level and rotate to an initial pitch attitude of 20°
• Verify the speedbrakes are retracted
• If terrain remains a threat, continue rotation up to the pitch limit indicator or stick shaker or initial buffet
• Do not change gear or flap configuration until terrain separation is assured
• Monitor radio altimeter for sustained or increasing terrain separation
• When clear of the terrain, slowly decrease pitch attitude and accelerate
What are the actions for GPWS CAUTION?
Correct the flight path or the airplane configuration?
What items do you reject a take-off below 80 kts?
• activation of the master caution system
• system failure(s)
• unusual noise or vibration
• tire failure
• abnormally slow acceleration
• takeoff configuration warning
• fire or fire warning
• engine failure
• predictive windshear warning
• the airplane is unsafe or unable to fly
Above 80 knots and before V1, reject the takeoff for any of the following/
• fire or fire warning
• engine failure
• predictive windshear warning
• the airplane is unsafe or unable to fly
What items should be checked after and RTO?
• Technical status of the aircraft • Gear Synoptic (BTMS) • Tire condition: [ ] TIRE PRESSURE, Fire Chief, ATC) • Review brake temperature & tire condition before vacating the runway • Possibility of wheel fuse plugs melting and the need to clear the runway, taxi to the gate under aircraft own power or requesting a tow • If evacuation is not required post RTO threat assessment, then PA: “THIS IS THE CAPTAIN, NORMAL OPERATIONS, NORMAL OPERATIONS, PASSENGERS REMAIN SEATED” • Accomplish the After Landing Procedure • Review brake cooling schedule for brake cooling time and precautions (refer to Performance-Inflight Chapter) • Fuel on board
• NITS Brief/PA: advising the passenger
• Time permitting, inform NOC Subsequent to Takeoff, Crew to perform the following;
• OPT calculations
• Accomplish procedures from “Before Start Checklist” onwards
• Comply with brake cooling schedule In the event of an RTS, Crew to perform the following;
• Analise the requirement for remote parking
• Advising the ground crew of the hot brake hazard
• Comply with brake cooling schedule
• ATL entries
• NITS Brief/PA: advising the passenger
• Time permitting, inform NOC
