Cq 2022 KV Flashcards
Why does the emergency parking brake need to be on prior to starting the external inspection?
To check the brake wear indicators.
Just because the parking brake is on, does this guarantee that there is sufficient hydraulic pressure if you check the brake wear indicators?
No.
If the hydraulic pressure is depleted for the brakes, how can it be restored prior to the external walk around?
Activation of system one and system two electric hydraulic pumps.
On external inspection, you notice at the air data smart probes are covered in frost. What would be an appropriate action by the pilot?
Turn the ADSP heater switch to on and remove frozen contaminants.
Provide at least one other condition that would require heat being applied to the ADSPs during the preflight. (4)
- Outside air temperature is at or below freezing and water, ice, or snow is present or suspected.
- On the first flight of the day with temperatures below -18°C.
- Smart probes frozen.
- Erroneous airspeed indications present on the PFD with any or all of the following messages displayed on EICAS. AFCS fault, AT FAIL, AP FAIL, FD FAIL, YD fail, APPR2 not available, any other ADS messages displayed on the EICAS.
Use the pictorial walk around, describe the preflight action for the nose landing gear.

Wheels and tires, condition. Up lock hook, unlocked. Down lock springs, condition. Strut, wheel wells, condition and no leaks. Ground locking pin, removed. Brake wear indicators, check.
What document would you refer to regarding missing static discharges? Where is that located?
CDL, AFM.
Give at least two atmospheric conditions that require a cold weather preflight inspection. (6 total)
- Outside air temperature is 5°C or less.
- Wing fuel temperature is 0°C or less. 3. Conditions conducive to icing exist. 4. RON and may have frozen contaminants.
- Through flight with residual ice from inbound flight.
- Cold soaked ice suspected in the fuel tank.
What checklist must be complete prior to starting the deice/anti ice process?
The before start checklist.
What is used in lieu of normal procedures checklist from the start of the deice/anti ice process through the before takeoff checklist?
ERJ 175 deice/anti-ice checklist.
What is the guidance the checklist provides regarding running the APU during deicing procedures?
Should remain off.
Are there different deice procedures for engines off versus engines running?
Yes.
Are the deice/anti-ice communication elements required? Where are they found?
Yes. Communication elements table.
List two required communications elements from the communication elements table.
1) type of fluid be used. 2) percentage of fluid. 3) time of beginning of final deice step. 4) deicing complete.
When does the hold over Time begin?
Final application of fluid commences.
What does the HOT represent?
A range of time in which the fluid provides acceptable protection for the varying precipitation intensities.
In a HOT table what do the longer and shorter times represent?
Heavier versus lighter precipitation.
What should a crew use to determine precipitation intensities in order to accurately establish a HOT?
Official weather observations. Tables from the GDPM should only be used in the absence of intensities listed in the official observations.
Can the HOT be used as the sole determinant that aircraft critical surfaces are free of frozen contaminants.
No. Several pre-take off checks may be required to determine the condition of the aircraft prior to take off.
What are two factors that influence the effectiveness of deicing/anti-icing fluid? (4 total)
1) Change in precipitation type, intensity, and moisture content.
2) Change in ambient and aircraft skin temperature.
3) Position of aircraft relative to the exhaust or prop wash of other aircraft. 4) Change in wind direction or velocity.
Can parking in the proximity of another aircraft jet wash blow the deice/anti-ice fluid off the wings rendering the HOT invalid or the fluid ineffective?
Yes.
List two precipitation types that HOTS do not exist for (4 total)
Heavy snow. Ice pellets. Moderate and heavy freezing rain. Hail.
When is a pre-takeoff check conducted?
Within the hold over time and just prior to takeoff.
What is checked as part of the pre-takeoff check?
The representative surface from a vintage point in the aircraft that the PIC determines will give an accurate indication of the condition of the aircraft.
What should the crew do if they are unable to determine that the representative surface is free from frozen contaminants?
The aircraft must be de-iced again.
When is a pre-take off contamination check conducted?
After the HOT has been exceeded or the HOT is no longer valid due to changing weather conditions, or in heavy snow to ensure the wings, controls surface and other critical surfaces are free of all frozen contaminants.
Can the pre-takeoff contamination check be performed if the de-ice process was initiated at a location other than the wings, say the tail perhaps?
No.
Is there ever a case where the aircraft can depart with frozen contaminants on any of the critical surfaces?
No.
What altitude would the crew initiate the right turn to a heading of 240?
Climb straight ahead to 1000 feet a FE then commence turn to heading as listed.
How long should a crew fly this heading?
Fly this path to safely attain an altitude and position where radar vectors can be provided or a minimum in route or approach altitude.
How does a simple special engine failure take off path differ from the above standard engine failure?
A turn to a NavaiD or HDG is required prior to 1000 feet.
In the event of an engine failure at V1, what speed does the above procedure have you fly?
Engine failure climb speed V2
Why is nothing listed under VIA?
Procedure is runway heading initially, engine failure heading is only listed if different than runway alignment.
What is the engine failure turn point for 19L in KSFO?
End of the runway or .0 9 DME from the SFO VOR.
When reaching the OAKVOR in the above procedure, what should the crew do?
Hold on the in bound course, standard hold
Can a crew legally depart KSFO runway 19L if the OAKVOR is out of service?
Yes, an alternate procedure of heading 050 is listed.
In the FOMs Landing performance hierarchy, when reported, what should be used to determine Landing performance?
Rwy CC VALUES
When CCs Are unavailable, what should be used to determine landing performance?
Contaminant type and breaking action reports.
If RwyCC values for the same runway ARE different, 5/4/3, which RWYCC value is used when performing a landing assessment?
Three. The most restrictive.
Are Rwy cc by directional?
Yes, runways are evaluated to include displaced threshold and are measured equally in either direction.
Use the flight release METAR and plan landing weights. What is the heaviest achievable landing weight? What is the MIN LDG DIDT-FLAPS 5- NO THR REV CREDIT?
What does TALPA stand for?
Takeoff and landing performance assessment.
What is RCAM?
Runway condition assessment matrix is the tool used to assess and report surface conditions when contaminants are present via field condition, FICON. The RCAM maps contamination type and depth to a runway condition code. RWYCC.
What percentage of the runway surface needs to be covered for the runway to be contaminated?
Greater than 25%.
What does the RWYCC represent?
The breaking action, B a, expected for a particular contaminant level.
What are RWYCC used for?
To determine landing distance. Used for departures to identify the runway third with the most limiting contaminant. Use to determine operating limitation such as crosswind limits with low runway friction.
A RWYCC value of zero represents what type of BA?
NIL, And results in immediate runway closure.
How long can a FICON NOTAM BE IN EFFECT?
24 hours and may not reflect actual condition and breaking action.
What should a pilot do when they believe a NOTAM Does not accurately reflect current conditions?
Consult the dispatcher, airport, or ATC to ascertain current runway information.
When powering up the aircraft, what minimum voltage is required? When would you need to perform the SOPM charging procedure?
22.5 V, if voltage is between 21 v and 20 V.
After the EICAS is powered, how long must we wait before APU start?
After verifying there are no fire protection fail(?) messages. 30 seconds after EICAS is energized.
