En Route Flashcards
What altitude does the MC calculate to get to alternates at
1)Up to 170nm= 10,000 feet and 250k
2)Over 170 if v prof calculates 5 minute cruise can be maintained. Higher altitudes are used
3)170-290nm Fl200 310 k
4) 290nm or greater FL310 and .74 are used
As a under 100 hour PAA AC when must you accomplish t/o and landings
AFMAN 2C17V3 4.3.2
1) Ceiling and vis less than 300 feet and/or rvr 4000 (3/4sm vis)
2) rcr less than 12
3) x wind greater than 15 knots
Stable approach criteria
AMC SUP 29.8.1
1)Aircraft is in landing configuration(final flap may be delayed but briefed)
2)airspeed is appropriate for configuration and conditions
3)sink rate is no greater than 1000fpm or as briefed
4)all briefings and checklists are complete
5)aircraft is on correct track
6) aircraft is in correct bankangle to maintain proper approach track
7)power is set to maintain descent profile at vapp
8)momentary minor corrections or deviations are acceptable defined as
Airspeed- 10/-5 knots from target
Bank Angle 15/-15 deg from target
Rate of descent +/-300 FPM from target
9)pacah engaged before 300ft
10) decrabbed below 300ft
What are the 2 types of augmented days and what are the stipulations
18 and 24 hour duty days
18- requires augmented crew, one 5hour leg or two 3 hour legs. AAR in first 14 hours. Once you begin an 18hour day only appropriate waiver authority may extend to a 24 hr day.
24- one 6 hour or two 4hour legs. No more than 3 intermediate stops after 14hours.
Can use an extended ground time of more than 4hours as a leg if it allows all crew members to get adequate rest.
16hour max duty day for no Ap/ats
What is the maximum flying time
7days-56 hours
30-125h
90-330h
OG/CC May waive this
When does FDP start and end
Starts when aircrew member first reports for official duty and ends at final engine shutdown
What is CDT and what is the max
Period of time aircrew May perform combined ground/flight duties. Must compete within max CDT 18 hours (basic) and 24+45 for augmented
What is the max ambien usage?
Max of 7 consecutive days or no more than 20 in a 60 day period
Where do you find hold down fuel airfields?
Flight planning fuel policy letter on EFB (4,500)
What is the minimum planned landing fuel at the primary destination
18,000lbs or required fuel reserve, fuel required to transit to alternate (if required) contingency fuel, and any authorized identified extra fuel
When is a departure alt required?
If weather at departure alternate is below the lowest landing minimums for a Suitable approach (ceiling vis, or crosswinds) if ILS approach, Cat1 mins will be used
Suitability of departure alternate
Aircraft must be capable of maintaining MEA/MOCA, whichever is higher using OEI.
For an alternate within 30minutes flying time existing weather is equal to or better than published app minimums and forecast to remain so until 1hour after takeoff but in no case forecast to be lower than 200-1/2 (rvr 2400)
For 2hours flying time the existing weather is at least 500-1 above the lowest compatible published approach minimums, but not less than 600-2 for a precision approach or 800-2 for NPA and forecast to remain so 1 hour after ETA at alternate
What are our IFR t/o mins
Operational- RVR 1000(300m)
With a t/o below 1600 we need rwy centerline lighting, 2 rvr sensors with min of 1000 on both
All other-1600rvr (500m)
*if no rvr it must be 1/2sm (800m) or greater
What are the IFR departure procedures

What are the types of ODP’s
