Emergencies

Question 0

Parameters that cause PMU to abort a start

Answer 0

Weak battery
High OAT
high prestart ITT
HIGH DA
Tailwind

Question 1

Manually abort

Answer 1

ITT rate of increase appears likely to exceed 1000 C (hot start)
Normal N1 increase is halted (hung start)
No rise of ITT is evident with 10 sec after fuel flow (no start)
Red BATT Bus on right EICAS (never going to happen)
PCL is moved or ST READY green advisory message extinguishes during the start sequence

Question 2

Reasons for motoring

Answer 2

Any aborted start during which fuel was introduced

Motor the engine to clear residual fuel and/or lower the ITT

Question 3

Motoring

Answer 3

PCL- off
Ign- norm
Prop- clear
Starter switch- manual for 20 sec
Starter switch- norm

Question 4

Likely to depart the prepared surface
Or any other reason

Question 5

Emergency engine shutdown

Answer 5

PCL- off
Firewall shutoff handle- pull
Emergency ground egress- as req

Question 6

Reasons to take off or abort

Answer 6

Runway length and condition
Terminal weather conditions and area traffic
System emergency affecting safety prior to liftoff

Question 7

Abort

Answer 7

PCL- idle
Brakes- as req
Warning:
Do not taxi into or park in a congested area if max effort braking used. Do not set parking brake

Question 8

Tire failure during TO

Answer 8

If the decision is made to stop:
1. Abort
If TO is continued:
2. Gear and flaps position- do not change
3. Straight in approach- execute
Land on side of runway of good tire (put drag in the middle)
Maintain directional control with rudder, brakes, or NWS

Question 9

Complete engine failure indications

Answer 9

Total loss of power

Fairly rapid reduction in airspeed

Question 10

Engine failure immediately after TO

Answer 10

1. Airspeed- 110 kts min
A positive nose down pitch change will be needed
2. PCL- as req
Select idle to increase drag
Select off to reduced sink rate
3. Emergency LDG GR handle- pull 
4. Flaps- as req.

Question 11

Maximum breaking action

Answer 11

A smooth single application, increasing as airspeed decreases, offers the best braking opportunity.
Not equipped with anti-skid or anti-lock protection
Weight fully on wheels

Question 12

Breaking caution speed

Answer 12

80 kias

Greater chance achieved below this value

Question 13

Loss of brake effectiveness

Answer 13

Fully release brakes

Then reapply

Question 14

Maximum abort speed

Answer 14

The maximum speed at which an abort may be started and the aircraft stopped within the remaining runway length

Question 15

Maximum braking speed

Answer 15

The max speed from which the aircraft can be brought to a stop without exceeding the maximum design energy absorption capability of the brakes (3.96 million ft-lb)

Question 16

CFS and ejection procedures from the ground

Answer 16

Coordinate “CFS- rotate and pull” using internal CFS handles between front and rear cockpits

Ensure O2 mask and visor

Internal-only respective
External- both

Don’t un strap unless sure canopy is open

Question 17

PTSD INDICATIONS

Answer 17

The propeller moves toward feather due to a temporary loss of oil pressure to the propeller pitch control mechanism.
Fluctuations in Np, TQ increasing, thrust decreasing, and engine vibrations
20 sec duration
Chip detector warning

Question 18

PTSD PMU off

Answer 18

Oil pressure and volume output to the propeller pitch control increase
May be sufficient enough to overcome localized reduction in oil pressure caused by propsleve touchdown and restore propeller control

Question 19

Uncommanded changes in power/loss of power/feathering (attempted reset)

Answer 19

PCL-mid range
*midway position between idle and max
*above idle provides best chance
*minimize chances of over torque and/or over temperature
PMU- off
*itt limits potentially > 820
*increase landing distance higher N1 ~67%
If Np stable below 40%, prop SYS CB- pull
*stable: 3 sec period
*Np red Xs: PMU off then norm can reset it
*prop should unfeather 15-20 sec
PCL- as req

Question 20

Air start demands

Answer 20

~1200 feet of altitude lost
@ best glide speed of 125 kias
~ 40 sec
Below 2000 eject

Question 21

Hyd fl Lo

Answer 21

Below 1800 psi

Dropped below 1 qt

Question 22

Chip detector warning

Answer 22

1. PCL- minimum necessary to intercept ELP; avoid unnecessary PCL movements
2. PEL- execute

Question 23

Oil PX warning illuminates and oil pressure is normal

Answer 23

Check oil TRX CB on BAT BUS. Reset if open

Question 24

SCU failure

Answer 24

Red and Amber oil PX messages with normal oil PX indications

Question 25

Oil system malfunction or low oil PX

Answer 25

If only Amber oil PX caution illuminates: 1. Terminate maneuver 2. Check oil pressure; if oil pressure is normal, continue operations If red oil PX warning illuminates and/or Amber oil PX caution remains illuminates for 5 secs: 3. PCL-minimum necessary to intercept ELP; avoid unnecessary PCL movements 4. PEL- execute

Question 26

NORDO | In landing pattern

Answer 26

``` Check helmet connections Check audio panel Try other ckpt transmitter Observe tower for ALDIS, land, and clear RW Comply with ALDIS for return to parking ```

Question 27

NORDO | On course rules

Answer 27

``` Check helmet connections Check audio panel Try other ckpt transmitter Rock wings at break 180, check ALDIS Land and clear RW Taxi, with ALDIS ```

Answer 29

``` Hyd pressure- check Airspeed- 150 or below Landing gear handle- down Flaps- extend Land as soon as practical ```

Question 30

Illumination EHYD PX LO or HYD FL LO

Answer 30

May indicate a Fluid leak in either the Hyd sys If small enough, it could bypass the Hyd fuse May not have enough fluid to lower gear
