Class B Regulations Flashcards
When can a single engine piston not operate
For commercial operations
Not at night
Or in IMC unless under special visual rules (SVFR)
What is the all engine working min climb gradient for a MEP in class b
4%
With:
Flaps for T/O
Lnd gear down (unless you can get it up in 7 secs)
Climb speed min 1.2 Vs1 or Vmc 1.1 (whatever faster)
After what height to you consider a engine failure in class b
Above 300ft
What must a MEP be able to do at 400ft with 1 engine inoperative in class B
Have a positive climb gradient
With;
Live engine at t/o power Critical engine fail Lnd gear retracted T/o flap 1.2vs1 or 1.1Vmc or speed at 50ft
What must a MEP be capable of at 1500ft with one engine inoperative in class B
Min climb gradient of 0.75%
With
Thrust at max continuous thrust
Lnd gear / flaps up
Speed not less than 1.2Vs1
Dean engine in min drag config
What happens if a MEP can’t comply with; -all eng t/o regulations
- one eng inoperative ; @ 400ft and @1500ft
In class B
Then it must be considered a SEP
If a runway only consists of TORA what lengt can TOD be in class B
TOD x 1.25 must be less than or equal to TORA
With TOD what length must TODA be in class B
must be greater than or equal to 1.15 TOD
With TOD what length must ASDA be in class B
Greater than or equal to 1.3 TOD
For takeoff, if the runway upslopes what safety factor must be added in class B
5% for ever 1% of upslope gradient increase
Max 2% gradient unless special permission from authority
What is the safety factor for dry grass takeoff in class B
Dry grass = TOD X1.2
What is the safety factor added to TOD for wet grass during take off in class B
TOD X 1.3
What is the safety factor for wet paved runway during takeoff in class B
TOD X 1
What is the height of grass in class B regulations
20cm
What factor of a headwind component can be considered in class B
Factor 50% of headwind
What tailwind factor can be used in class B
Factor 150% of the tailwind
For a contaminated runway what Is advised for class B
advised not to operate
What is the class B sep clearance requirement for obstacles
No requirement
What is the class b mep obstacle clearance requirement
50ft vertically
Or
Horizontally by half width
What is the equation for halfwidth
60 + 1/2 wingspan + 0.125x distance to object
What is the max half width for a track change of less than 15° class b in vmc
300m
What is the max half width for a track change of less than 15° class b in imc
600 m
What is the max half width for a track change of greater than 15° class b in vmc
600m
What is the max half width for a track change of greater than 15° class b in imc
900m
What is the min height in class b that you can start a turn
50ft or half wingspan
What is the max angle of bank at 50ft in a mep class b
Under 15°
Class b what height do u not assume a engine fail below
300ft
Class b mep when do you assume a engine fail
When in cloud below 1500ft
Class b mep what is climb performance degraded by all eng climb gradient
0.77
When does the en-route phase start / stop
Class b
Starts 1500ft agl @ departure
Ends 1000ft agl @ destination
What is your planned height mep class b
Max = where max ROC = 300fpm
If one eng out en-route what must all climb gradients be degraded by
Mep class b
0.5%
What height does the landing start class b
50ft above threshold
What is a balked landing
Where you HAVE to go around
What is the mep class b balked landing min gradient
2.5%
What is the mep class b missed approach 1 engine out min climb gradient @1500ft
0.75%
