Dispatch Procedures

Question 1

You are in EHAM and you taxied 2.0 mile to get to the takeoff runway. You are 830,000 lbs and you reject at 40 KTS with an OAT of 15C. Enter the brake energy cooling chart and tell me your considerations?
Use Brake Cooling Schedule chart in QRH, PI. 1-13

Answer 1

1) What zone do you fall in?
2) How many millions of foot-pounds are added for taxi distance?
Answer = 2 Million ft-lbs.
3) Other considerations, notes.

Question 2

Your Flight Follower has elected to calculate your TLR using dry runway data at your destination. Under what circumstances can he or she do this and what are the implications to your flight
(GOM, Ch 5).(AOM, Vol I, App A)

Answer 2

• Know that the info lives in the GOM and when you can plan to land using dry runway data.
• Know that conducting an approach to visibilities less than RVR 4000 (3/4 NM) requires that the runway support a fully factored landing calculation.

Question 3

Why do you configure to Gear Up and Flaps 20 on a go around? (AOM, Vol I, Aerodata)

Answer 3

• In case of an engine failure on the go around, performance can be met.

Question 4

Your TLR has a notation “SLUSH-LEVEL 2” in the remarks section. What depth of slush has been planned by the flight follower? (AOM, Vol I, Aerodata)

Answer 4

• More than 1/8 inch, up to 1/4 inch.

Question 5

You are part of an augmented crew. You have just flown from Newark to Bahrain. Crew Scheduling has notified you that you are to ferry the aircraft to Dubai. What must Flight Following complete prior to your departure? (GOM, Ch 11)

Answer 5

• The FAR Part 91 Tail End Ferry Flight Worksheet must be completed.

Question 6

You are departing from KEWR on runway 22L. The runway is shown as grooved on the Jeppesen 10-9A page. There is light drizzle present and reported. What runway condition will you select from the ACARS TO CONDITIONS menu?
Why?
(AOM, Vol I, Aerodata)

Answer 6

• Wet
• Aerodata performance is runway specific, including any surface treatment to enhance runway friction coefficient, such as grooving.

Question 7

When is a new TLR required prior to departure?

AOM, Vol I Aerodata

Answer 7

• The TLR is void when the actual QNH is more than .10” (3.4 hPa) below the planned QNH.
• The TLR is void when the actual OAT is greater than the Maximum Temperature (MT) for the takeoff runway.
• The TLR is void when the actual OAT is more than 10° less than the planned OAT.
• The TLR is void when the actual takeoff weight is greater than the planned takeoff weight, plus 10,000 pounds.
• The TLR is void when a performance limiting MEL exists that is not shown in the RMKS section.
