Q

What is the technique for level-off with more than 6,000 fpm IVV?

A

2,000 ft prior to your level off altitude, cut the picture in half and then use 10% of your IVV to determine when to start leveling off

Q

What must you be mindful of when climbing at high IVV numbers in regards to the TCAS system?

A

The TCAS system was not designed for high performance aircraft, and a false RA may generate

Q

How do you taxi with a single engine?

A

Do not taxi the T-38 with a single engine

The only exception is you may clear the active runway if you have downside hydraulics or the landing gear is pinned
