Q

What does a BLEED MISCONFIG caution mean? When does it appear?

A

The engine bleeds are being used to supply both ECS and anti-ice at the same time, with the gear down or flaps not at 0.

Doing this dramatically reduces the engine’s thrust, so this is prohibited in critical phases of flight.

Why is it important to check for an APU FIRE FAIL caution message prior to conducting the fire test?

A

So you don’t inadvertently fire the APU’s bottle.

This could happen due to the APU’s automatic fire protection while on the ground.

Q

An engine fire occurs after you have terminated the aircraft. Do you have to reconnect AC power in order to actuate the ENG FIR PUSH switch-lights?

A

No, all of the aircraft’s FIRE SOV’s and bottles are connected to the DC EMER BUS which is a hot bus (always powered)

Q

Would you still be able to detect a fire after receiving an APU, L (R) ENG FIRE FAIL caution message?

A

It depends on whether the L (R) ENG / APU FIRE FAIL has been caused by a single-false fire or a double fault.

If you are receiving the FIRE FAIL message because of a single-false fire, you would still receive an indication.

It caused by a double fault, you would not receive the message.

163
Q

What creates Motive Flow?

A

Motive Flow is created by the Engine Driven Fuel Pumps

164
Q

How is the fuel transferred from the Center Tank to the Main Wing Tanks?

A

Fuel moves from the Center tank to the Main Wing Tanks using the Transfer Ejectors and Transfer SOV.

This process begins when the Wing Tank falls below 93% and stops when the Wing Tanks are full.

165
Q

How does the fuel move from the Main Wing Tanks to the engines?

A

From the Wing Tanks, fuel moves to Collector Tanks via gravity and Scavenger Ejectors.

Fuel moves from the Collector Tanks to the engines via the Main Ejectors backed up by the Fuel Boost Pump.

166
Q

As part of the checklist, prior to starting the engines, you reach up and select the L Fuel Boost Pump. You then observe that “ON” indications have illuminated in both pump switches (without selecting R Fuel Boost Pump). What is going on? Why did this happen?

A

Selecting the Fuel Boost Pumps in “arms the fuel pumps to look for low pressure”, it does not turn them on.

Once armed, if either Fuel Boost Pump finds low pressure on its respective side, both fuel boost pumps turn on together.

167
Q

Why are the pressure refueling limits higher than the gravity refueling limits?

A

Because the gravity fuel caps are located below the highest part of the wing tank.

168
Q

Describe the automatic power crossflow process.

A

The crossflow process starts when one wing tank is below the other wing tank by 200 pounds.

It turns off when the originally low tank exceeds the other tank by 50 pounds.

169
Q

How would you manually crossflow fuel should the automatic crossflow fail?

A

By selecting XFLOW AUTO OVERRIDE switch-light and then selecting the crossflow SOV on the low-fuel side.

Push the side to where you want the fuel to go!

170
Q

Why do you have to be especially careful during manual crossflow?

A

There is no automatic protection available.

This could create an imbalance through continuous use

171
Q

What is the maximum fuel imbalance limit?

Which message would you receive if that limitation were exceeded?

A

800 pounds maximum fuel imbalance

Fuel Imbalance Caution Message

172
Q

What indications would you receive if the Refuel / Defuel computer was left on after refueling?

A

AUTO XFLOW INHIB Status Message

173
Q

The fuel stored in the wing could be as cold as -30°C. Per limitation, fuel entering the engine can’t be lower than 5°C, how are we able to meet this limitation?

A

The Fuel/Oil Heat Exchanger warms the fuel prior to entering the engine fuel metering unit.

174
Q

What is an MLI and why would we use them?

A

Magnetic Level Indicator

Serve as the manual method of checking the fuel using the two accelerometers located in the flight deck (to determine lateral and horizontal axis tilt when on the ground)

175
Q

What prevents fuel from flowing to the outside of the lower wing during turns?

A

One-way flow valves (flapper-valves).

176
Q

What creates positive pressure in the wing fuel tanks?

A

NACA vents

  • Engine Lubrication Pumps
  • Integral Oil Reservoir
  • Alternator (Powers N1 Control Amplifier)

  • Integrated Drive Generator (IDG)
  • Mounted on the gearbox is the Air Turbine Starter (ATS)
180

181
Q

How many igniters exist in the combustion section, and what are their power sources?

A

Two

Ignition A - AC Essential Bus

Ignition B - Battery Bus

182
Q

How can the Battery Bus be the power source for Ignition B when both igniters use AC Power?

A

It passes through a Static Inverter (Converts DC to AC)

183
Q

What happens when Continuous Ignition is selected?

A

Both ignition A and B are energized.

184
Q

When is Continuous Ignition required?

A
  • T/O & L on contaminated runways
  • T/O & L with high X-Wind component
  • Flight through mod+ rain
  • Flight through mod+ turbulence
  • Flight in the vicinity of thunderstorms
185
Q

Where is the probe located that gives us Inter-Turbine Temperature (ITT) information?

A

The ITT probe is in between the hi pressure and low pressure turbine.

186
Q

What is meant when we say the N1 Control Amplifier “trims” the fuel above 79% N1?

A

Above 79% N1, the N1 Control Amplifier withholds whatever fuel is necessary in order to achieve the desired N1 set by the pilots.

187
Q

How does the N1 Control Amplifier trim the fuel?

A

This is done electronically through the Fuel Control Unit

188
Q

What would be lost if the Engine Speed switches were turned off?

A
  • APR
  • Engine Sync
  • Overspeed Protection
189
Q

What is APR and what does it do?

A

Automatic Performance Reserve (APR) provides 9220lbs of thrust when activated.

190
Q

What is required for the APR system to ARM?

A
  • APR ARM switch set to ARM
  • Both ENG SPEED switches set to ON
  • Weight on Wheels
  • Both N1 rpms are greater than 79%
  • Two DCUs must be serviceable
191
Q

When will the APR system activate? What are the indications?

A

APR Activates when the N1 on either engine decreases below 67.6%

A green APR icon in N1 gauge appears

192
Q

How long will the APR arm and operate if activated

A

5 minutes after being armed

193
Q

Is APR available during a go-around?

A

No, only within the first five minutes after T/O

194
Q

What makes up for APR not being available during a Go-Around?

A

Go-Around Thrust

195
Q

You receive a HOT indication on your ITT gauge during start, what does this mean?

A

The HOT icon indicates a Hot Start
>500°C and rising rapidly

196
Q

Is it possible to have a hot start and not receive a HOT indication?

A

Yes, if the temperature isn’t rising rapidly enough

197
Q

What needs to happen before we can deploy the thrust reversers? How do we deploy them?

A

Thrust reversers must be armed and the thrust levers at idle. Press on the triggers and pull up on the thrust reverser levers.

198
Q

What is the function of the Auto-Throttle Retard (ATR) system?

A

The ATR system pulls the thrust levers to idle in the event of an inadvertent deployment of a Thrust Reverser.

199
Q

What happens when you press the THRUST REVERSER EMER STOW push buttons?

A

Uses 14th stage bleed air to stow the unlocked reverser.

ICE advisory message on EICAS

256

Flight: Engine bleeds are running the Packs AND Anti-Ice AND the flaps are not at 0°.

259
Q

If one engine fails, can we still provide anti-ice to both wings?

A

Yes, through the 14th Stage ISOL valve

260
Q

A

Due to its fail-safe closed position, it will only open if the wing anti-ice valves are opened.

261
Q

A

WING OVHT: Sensor in the wing is detecting higher than normal heat.

ANTI-ICE DUCT: Bleed air leak detected.

262
Q

Following a WING OVHT warning message, the procedure tells us to move the wing anti-ice switch from the NORM position to the STBY position. What is the difference?

A

Moving the switch to STBY bypasses the temperature controller. Wing thermal switches are used to cycle the anti-ice valves open and closed to maintain the wing at a lower temperature.

A

Only the left window

270
