Q

Auto throttle ON / OFF

A

AT ON
PF sets 40% N1, when stable at 40%, push TOGA switch
PM “TO THRUST SET”
PF calls “checked” and removes hand from throttle
PM places hand on throttle

AT OFF
PF sets 40%, stable at 40%, advance thrust lever removes hand and call “SET TO THRUST”
PM sets hand on throttle sets TO thrust and calls “TO THRUST SET”
PF calls “checked”

Q

Taxi and trip fuel

A

Fuel consumed before take off

Fuel to reach destination

17
Q

Contingency (for what?) and final reserve fuel

A

At least 5% or 5 min of the trip fuel (higher)

  • deviations aeroplane fuel consumption
  • deviations from weather forecast
  • deviations from planned routing and/or cruising level

Fuel to fly for 30 min at 1500’ in ISA above aerodrome

18
Q

Alternate, extra and additional fuel

A

Fuel to destination alternate via the destination
Extra fuel deemed necessary by commander
Additional fuel needed by operator

19
Q

FMC RESERVE FUEL

A

Final reserve + alternate fuel

20
Q

Alternate fuel

An operator must select at least one destination alternate unless:

A
  • planned flight time TO to LDG < 6H
  • two seperate runways are available and usable at destination aerodrome
  • forecast visibily > or equal to 5000M
  • cloudbase > or equal to highest of:
    • circling height + 500’
    • 2000’
21
Q

TEM Model threats categories

A
  • Anticipated threats: known to crew: thunderstorms, congestion, complex SID’s, terrain
  • Unanticipated threats: these occur suddenly: malfunctions, TCAS RA, ATC Ambiguity, unforcasted adverse weather
  • Latent threats: These are not directly obvious/observable by the crew: fatigue, optical illusion, stress, lack of experience.
22
Q

Environmental threats

A
  • Weather: thunderstorms, icing, windshear, crosswind, temperatures
  • ATC: traffic congestion, TCAS TA/RA, ATC error, language, non-standard, runway change
  • Airport: runway, bad signals, aids u/s, complex nav
23
Q

Organizational threats

A
  • Operational pressure: delays, late arrivals, equipment changes
  • Aircraft: a/c malfunctions, automation event, MEL/CDL
  • Cabin: flight attendant, cabin event distraction, interruption, cabin door security
24
Q

TEM Model errors categories

A
  • AC handling errors: errors occuring whilst interaction with A/C: incorrect altimeter setting, incorrect configuration
  • Procedural errors: errors occuring whilst interacting with a procedure: missed item on CL, incorrect callouts
  • Communicational errors: errors occurring whilst interacting with people (ATC): miscommunication, incorrect phraseology
25
Q

UAS defination

A

A position, speed, attitude, or configuration of an A/C that results from flight crew error, actions, or inaction: and clearly reduces safety margins

26
Q

TEM Model UAS categories

A
  • A/C handling: vertical/lateral/speed deviations, unstable approach
  • Ground navigation: entering wrong taxiway
  • incorrect A/C configuration: incorrect configuration of systems, flight controls, engine
27
Q

Outcome UAS

A

Incident, ASR, accident

28
Q

A

——————- THREAT
Organizational / Environment

——————- ERROR
A/C Handling / Procedural / Communicational

——————-UNDESIRED A/C STATE
A/C handling / ground NAV / incorrect A/C Configuration

——————- OUTCOME
Incident / ASR / Accident

29
Q

Up to 70% of crew activities are countermeasures related

A
  • Planning countermeasure: anticipated and unexpected threats: proper planning
  • Execution countermeasures: essential for error detection and error response: proper monitoring/x-checking
  • Review countermeasures: essential for managing the changing conditions of a flight: speak up without hesitation
30
Q

TSAT TOBT

A

Target start-up approval time +/- 5min (ready to call ATC)

Target off-block time

31
Q

35
Q

Aborted engine start checklist

A
  • Hung start - N1 or N2 does not increase or increases very slowly after EGT increases
  • wet start: EGT does not increase by 10 seconds after engine start lever is moved to IDLE
  • hot start: EGT quickly nears or exceeds the start limit
  • no oil pressure indication by the time that engine is stable at IDLE
