RNAV approach on the 26 right into CYVR in July 2024

A

Harden up the downwind altitude
If 4000A, make 4000.

Even so, when they clear you 3000, means base turn is coming. Clear all restrictions and get down

Configure early

If visual, maybe call visual

They have us base turn at 3000
Dep/Arr 6R, FAF 2000, so either request lower, or call visual and keep coming down.

Update VNAV speed and arm VNAV

Clean up legs

Q

If your centre hydraulic system is showing zero quantity or pressure low, how do you know if you have standpipe fluid for the reserve breaks?

A

Check the hydraulic synoptic and make sure there’s green flow flowing through the C1 primary pump

90
Q

If you get the fuel imbalance checklist, when should you actually balance the fuel?

A

Example we had an engine out missed approach, followed by hydraulic failures, entering the hold the imbalance was getting to 2.5 tons.
This would’ve been a good time to start balancing
Then continue with the other non-normal checklist

The only time you don’t need to be at fuel is if you were in a critical stage of Flight

91
Q

How should you treat the insufficient fuel message?

A

Treated like a fuel imbalance message

Do the EFC check

92
Q

How should you treat the insufficient fuel message?

A

Treated like a fuel imbalance message

Do the EFC check

93
Q

When making a Mayday call or a Pan Pan call, do you need to say those words with every radio call?

A

No, only on initial contact with new agency

94
Q

When entering a hold as an emergency aircraft or pan pan, it might be a good idea to request what?

A

Longer hold legs.

10 or 20nm

95
Q

How does the auto start deal with a hot start situation?

A

Let the auto start do its thing, it will try three attempts and then give you
ENG AUTOSTART R/L as needed.

Do the memory items with the PF controlling the FCS , then call for the checklist

96
Q

There are three types of 180° tax returns. What are they?

A

A normal 180°
Keep moving at 6 kn parallel the runway edge and then go full tiller
(Capable on a 60 meter runway)

Minimum radius turn
Hang nose over runway edge by 30° with no gear almost touching runway edge lights
Come to a stop. Full tiller. Outside thrust. (Again within 60 meter runway.)

Pivot (45 m or 150’ runway)
Not above max landing weight
FCTM 2.16
Only an emergency
Better to get a tug
Will ruin tires and pavement

97
Q

What must you see on a visual approach if you have PAPI at 1000 feet?

A

Two colours

Not all red, not all white

98
Q

What is the best way to know that you’ve reached the approach ban height?

A

Use the white One thousand foot tape on the PFD (based on airport elevation)

(Not 1000 foot RA, as there could be a valley or hill)

99
Q

Can you use VNAV TO HELP with a visual approach?

A

Yes

Select the runway waypoint from any approach in the FMC

Make the runway the active waypoint with the appropriate inbound course

Van will then give you track miles and a VDI

100
Q

If you have hydraulic quantity pressure low on the left side, which items do you lose?

A

Left thrust reverser

However, a sneaky one is that the left hydraulics control a lot of the tail,
Therefore, you will also get a
NO AUTOLAND message

101
Q

Which equates to more brake pressure?

RTO BRAKES

Or

Max manual

A

RTO brakes is maximum pressure

102
Q

Should you Ever OverRide a Checklist?

A

You can!

BUT

you will lose the notes.
So sometimes better to just click through it.

103
Q

The master caution light and beeper are inhibited for all EI CAS caution messages below alert height except for:

A

NASA

No auto land
Auto pilot
Speedbrake extended
Auto throttle disconnect

Also note , this is only cautions, warnings will occur (engine fire, cargo fire etc)

104
Q

Cat 1 approach with 550m visibility (right on limits), will you see the runway?

A

No, probably not (worth briefing)

Continue

You need to see five consecutive approach lights

In order to see the threshold, do you need about 800 meters

105
Q

Showing LAND 2, meaning fail passive, another fault will not cause you to deviate significantly from the path, however it will disconnect the auto pilot, can you reconnect auto pilot?

A

Yes.
And when you reconnect, you will get the
NO AUTOLAND message

106
Q

After you establish the drift down and have entered the engine of Cruise, which speech should you select?

A

LRC

107
Q

When is the predictive windshear inhibit on takeoff?

A

Caution: 80 kn until 400 AGL
(Monitor radar display)

Warning : 100 knots until 50 feet
(Wind you ahead windshear ahead)

108
Q

Why is TOGA so important in a windshear Escape manoeuvre?

A

Normal takeoff flight directors give guidance for:
V2 +15 to V2 +25

Pressing toga put flight Director into attitude mode

109
Q

If getting low on fuel and approaching two tons per tank, what are some precautions?

A

You could think about doing the fuel quantity low checklist pre-emptively
(One Crossfeed on and all fuel pumps on)

110
Q

If getting real low on fuel as in showing two tons on landing, and you’re forced to do a missed approach, would you consider a teardrop or a visual circuit?

A

We know how to do and do visual circuits all the time.
Simulator: tight left-hand circuit with 3 mile ring at 1500 feet: we did it using 800 kg

When’s the last time you did it teardrop?

111
Q

The temperature is 3° or below and EAI is required. What percentage N1 is required for the static run up?

A

300
Min 50%
(Normal is 1.05 or aim at EPR)

ER:
As high as practical :
Min 50%
(So normal 55% should suffice)

112
Q

If operating engine out for an ILS07L into Hong Kong, how would you handle the MAP?

A

Enter DE07L and ROVER into fix page, and fly using TRK SELECT.

113
Q

What would happen if you had an engine engine failure during an auto land at 150 feet?

A

You will get the EICAS message
No beeper or light

Thrust will come up on the operating engine

Aircraft will land just fine

114
Q

Should you use the flight directors on an engine out takeoff?

A

Yes, great guidance

115
Q

What is a great tool to help you keep the wings level in a max crosswind takeoff?

A

Peak inside every now and then and look at the PFD to keep wings level

Add more during the rotation

Once the aircraft weather cox airborne, reduce bank

116
Q

What is the triple seven happy weight?

A

220 T : 750 FPM AND FLARE 35’

Max landing weight : 900fpm flare 40’

117
Q

If you decide to reject a landing, should you wait for the first officer to call rotate?

A

They should call rotate at Vref.

However, you should do it regardless of the first officer always be peeking inside

For a regular takeoff VR

118
Q

Should you do an autoland in a typhoon condition?

A

According to Rob Watson.

Yes, always

Configure early, especially 07L
- big tailwind on base
- Be down and done before final
- Leed the auto throttles

119
Q

If doing a visual circuit, what scale should you have the map on when turning base?

A

20 nautical miles

The noodle works perfect for a visual circuit

121
Q

As of August 2024, what must we add to the Descent briefing?
What is different about the go round calls?

A

Briefing must include “ in the event go around we may have to advance the thrust levers manually.

Newf call is thrust set

So :
Go round flaps five
Thrust LNAV TOGA
AP

Thrust set. Check.

Positive rate

122
Q

In the event of an RTO, what are the two reasons that it’s a good idea to bring up the gear synoptic?

A

Temperature
And
Tyre pressure

(If sky rocketing, maybe stay put)

123
Q

In the event of an RTO:
Ask Crew, how fast were we going when we rejected?
Start the clock when you stop.

There’s no rush, so no need to taxi and do the PA at the same time

If you raise the alert level , then keep it there until you’re satisfied that you’re in the Green

A

When giving an NITS briefing, be sure to ask them to repeat. Instructors will purposely not repeat.

125
Q

If you have a simple engine out takeoff and you’re returning to land, would you tell the ISM that it’s a normal landing,
Precautionary landing , or emergency landing?

A

At least a precautionary landing
No need to rush and offer a type of disembarkation

126
Q

After you have an engine out and a fuel imbalance before making the next approach, how would you brief and think of the fuel?

A

Just make sure that the low tank has enough for the approach.

If it starts getting too low, that’s when you should consider balancing

We had a five ton in with 34 tons total , I started balancing because we had time,
Steven Lee said he wouldn’t do that he would just keep things simple

127
Q

You’ve briefed and are passed the initial approach fix on a RNP AR approach.
You then get the GPS EICAS, do you need to go around?

A

You need the GPS as a pre-approach requirement from the supplementary procedure 4.15,
However, if you are already on the approach , passed the IAF, theoretically you only need to go around for
NAV UNABLE RNP
VERIFY POSITION.

So continue approach and perhaps you’ll break visual before getting either of these messages

128
Q

Do you have any idea when the TAC STARTS TO OPERATE ON A TAKEOFF AND WHEN IT STOPS TO OPERATE ON LANDING?

A

According to Steven Lee, it starts at
70 kn on the takeoff roll

And stop working at 70 non landing

129
Q

What is the potable water tolerance expressed in bars? 1-16?

A

1 bar tolerance

Example America requires 7/8 to 8/8
(Practically this means 14/16 to 16/16
So can accept 13/16th)

130
Q

What is the potable water requirement on regional sectors?
Is it different for 300 or for ER?

A

ER is 2/8 to 3/8

300 has smaller tank:
7/8 to 8/8

One bar tolerance

Pull up FON2024/033

Make sure it’s reflected on the load sheet

131
Q

If you’re pressed for time on the approach should you select flaps 20 gear down or gear down Flaps 20?

A

Takes longer to extend so select that first

Gear down flaps 20

132
Q

Is there anyway to check the radar returns in Hong Kong when there are thunderstorms?

A

Yes

-Use my Weather app Tap on Hong Kong -select General
- Scroll down to radar

133
Q

Is there anyway to get the ATIS IN HONG KONG WITHOUT USING THE ACARS?

A

Yes, can use my Weather app

Tap Hong Kong select General

There’s also a runway section which gives you the three winds for the runway

134
Q

Who should call if you have maintenance issues in Flight or want to give engineering a heads up on a situation?

A

Satcom maintenance control

They want registration B-KPZ
Not call sign

Use over and out terminology when speaking

135
Q

Can you dispatch without a flight interphone?

A

Check MEL

If all allows
Check 12.3.13.28
- Discuss hand signals with engineer
- Discuss return to Bay continuity procedures parking brake set starting engines
- Consideration should be given to start engine after pushback completed

Marshalling signals
Ops A 12.6

136
Q

When sending output to the company for the takeoff OPT, do you use Cx or CPA?

A

CAD requirement for CPA

137
Q

You’re entering the plane what is the first thing you do? Then you enter the cockpit was the first thing you do? Should you do the Flight deck check before the tech log?

A

Enter check waste water potable water

Cockpit : check documents

Sit down : scan and FODER

MED: Maint Etech log, EFB, Delegate

138
Q

During pre-Flight, should you leave stuff on the centre pedestal?

A

ATIS Control column
NOTOC (clip board)
Etechlog, keep on side

139
Q

Should you leave your iPad plugged in during Taxi?

A

No, upon entering the cockpit checked that the charger works then unplug it.

Make sure first officer doesn’t have it plugged in for Taxi either

140
Q

Should you only check the NOTAM for destination departure and alternate airport?

A

No, also check the FIR tab.
(Beware of runway centreline Lighting unserviceability, and how it affects visibility required)

This can help with flow control

141
Q

When building the approach, what should you put into route two? And what is something you should definitely check in the missed Approach?

A

Show trainers you are prepared:
Put opposite runway in route two or diversion routing

When setting up for the approach , there is a speed in the MAP.

And check that the MAP hold procedure is correct. If not build it.

142
Q

When checking the weather required for destination alternate is the figure using the MDA or the MDH

A

MDH

143
Q

If you do not have auto throttles for your flight, do you still need to press toga when selecting thrust for takeoff?

A

Yes

144
Q

When setting thrust for takeoff, what is the appropriate sequence and mouth music?

A

Say set thrust
Advance thrust to approximately
55% or 1.05

Count in your head one Mississippi two
Mississippi

Press TOGA

145
Q

During your pre-Flight set up what should you have on the displays for the PF PM and centre?

A

PF camera (tug?)
P.m. doors
Centre (COMM)

146
Q

Sometimes there’s a difference between the EFF and Flight deck pro calculation for visibility or minimum is required when calculating whether for destination or destination alternate why is that?

A

EFF is EASA designed

Flight deck pro is FAA

147
Q

After pushback flight attendant calls and says that door five left cannot be armed can you go? ?

A

Stop
Keep Eng and tug
MEL?
Maintenance control

They tell you to cycle door
Are you comfortable doing that?
Large drop broken bodies if they fall out the door.

Why not push back onto the Bay have engineering help you much safer

148
Q

When you get the cabin ready COMM message before pushback that’s a a good trigger for what other items?

A

Start the timer (they need about eight minutes before take off)

Do a quick scan of the cockpit
(Door closed, fruits and water bottles secure, iPad unplugged)

149
Q

What is the order of the flight control check?

A

Left right pull back push forward

150
Q

On a no weather day, when do you cycle the seatbelt signs?
Are there any other considerations besides weather when considering to Cycle the seatbelt signs?

A

I usually think about it after the after takeoff checklist and between transition altitude : so approx 7000’ (shoulder harness off at same time)

Other considerations :
Big turn
Steep climb
TCAS traffic or super busy
(Other good reasons to keep them seated)

152
Q

At TOC, PF calls cabin crew, to tell them we’re in the cruise (end of sterile cockpit), I usually like to take a bathroom break at this moment, is this always a good idea?

A

Consider:
Experience of other Crew
FIR boundary
Is it a busy time?

153
Q

What is the VMO/MMO?
And what is a good speed adjustment for departing Japan in the winter?

A

330/M0.89
(330 climbing to 350 as we climb)

So 320 knots is close if turbulent.
Maybe switch it to 300/0.82)

154
Q

The weather at destination is not amazing. You want to take more fuel. You should watch out for what.

A

Max takeoff weight

We got caught out with an alternate max takeoff weight out of CGK

155
Q

Funky OPT scenario, if it’s a hot day and the TAT probe has been sitting in the Sun, you may run into this issue.

A

OPT gives you TO2 AST 34 degrees.

Tat probe in sun is at 38 degrees.
You won’t be able to put data into CDU.

May force you into a max TO situation, so consider buffers on temp, QNH etc

158
Q

When does the the altitude alert EICAS message occur?
Does it require ASR?

A

Altitude alert occurs when your altitude deviates by more than 200 feet from your MCP altitude

Reportable incident only starts if you do +/- 300’

(So we didn’t file ASR for 200’ deviation due turbulence)

159
Q

Knowing that passengers can get freaked out flying if you have a non-normal or pretty severe turbulent, what is a good idea?

A

First of all, check in with the ISM
(Get a report on the cabin situation)

A nice calm PA may go along way to settle nervous passengers

160
Q

In the simulator, it’s very much zeros and ones, if you get a double pack failure should you just send 10,000 feet?

A

As soon as the cabin altitude reaches 10000, you’ll get the cabin out to warning.

So at least in the Sim, it may be worth descending to 9900 feet

161
Q

Andrew Murphy Flight

If you have the final load sheet and prelim load sheet, which one should you use for the Performance data steps?

A

Final

162
Q

What should be your trigger once you finish the before start checklist?

A

That’s when you double check C-ELF

Last chance to catch cabin ready before pushing back.

163
Q

For your command and watching first officers, should you follow their flows completely?

A

Yes

164
Q

Approaching TD,
What is a common threat?

A

Both Climbing out and descending watch out for traffic.

Even if it looks like it won’t be a conflict , you don’t know how fast the other aircraft is descending Climbing

Use VS

165
Q

Prepping for command if you find yourself scatterbrained and running all over the place think about using other crewmember

A

Remember a duck on top of the water.

Let them run around while you sort yourself out
(Well thought out PA, think of missed items etc)

166
Q

Chris Williams head of standards

When should you say IKW identified pointer showing?

A

Don’t say it on downwind

Say it at an appropriate time

Intercept heading for the localiser perhaps

IKW identified, cleared for approach,
Arm APP

167
Q

Andrew Murphy special
Don’t be shy with thrust to get moving when cleared to lineup

A

If need to use 35% N1 then so be it

168
Q

When refilling is complete and we say everything we need to say where are we really looking when looking for a -1 to +2 discrepancy?

A

Etechlog is one that matters most and is limiting (SP 12.2)

EFF, not limiting, only note discrepancy

169
Q

If the tech log has a discrepancy of -0.2, what can you expect at your first fuel check en route?

A

You can expect your totaliser to be down by 0.2T.

170
Q

When refilling is complete and you go through your checks, will the discrepancy EFF be the same as the discrepancy on the tech log?

A

They will almost always be different:

EFF discrepancy based on fuel ordered

Tech log discrepancy based on EICAS fuel in Tanks

171
Q

If if the tech log has a discrepancy of +500 kg, what should you watch out for?

A

Your OPT CALCULATION MIGHT NOT BE VALID

172
Q

Is there anyway to check where on the flight plan you can commonly get direct routings?

A

Yes.

Log page.

D with arrow through it.

If really tight on fuel, could check how much saving it would be by putting in directs, difference of Dist and use Avg KG/NM.

173
Q

What does SRM stand for in the ETL?

A

Structural repair manual

(Might see this when you have lightning strikes)

174
Q

What is something you should be aware of when you use auto brake 4?

A

Quite a lot of brake pressure is required to disconnect.

I almost came to a complete stop, then use the speed break to disconnect it.

175
Q

If EFF is not working and you have to use the paper version, how would you do fuel checks and it is there any requirement to accept an activate the flight plan?

A

Use CAR commanders administration report for fuel log and when you receive the final fuel.

Yes, must activate it

Q

If you have Equipment cooling override checklist, what are some thoughts?

A

Below 9000 feet and cabin differential less than 3.4, your equipment might start to overheat and you might lose avionics.

Either do the checklist

Or if you have NNC checklist , consider Climbing to 10,000 or 9999 in order to keep a sufficient differential pressure

177
Q

What is the 777 with regards to Taxi code?

A

Code E (52-65m wingspan)

B747 was F

178
Q

There are three calculations in the efficiency section of the EFF for fuel:
Taxi out
Overburn
Holding
What do these numbers mean?

A

Taxi out:
From off block until airborne

Over burn:
TOC until 150nm to Dest (TOD)
Basically cruise

Holding :
TOD until touchdown

179
Q

There are three Obern calculations in the efficiency section of the EFF.
Taxi out

180
Q

If you ever see Hydrophobic coating issues, beware of entering rain showers, good chance you won’t see anything.
Mitigating factors?

A

Plan for worst case:
Ie:
F30 and Autoland.
If visual, then land :)

181
Q

If selecting F25 on 300, or any 777, what else should you be thinking?

A

Can I Autoland. Always a good tool as a captain to have in back pocket.

182
Q

As captain, always be cross checking what FO is doing.
Example, flap retraction, watch to make sure they are selecting correct flap.
FACT

A
183
Q

When selecting auto brake for the approach how should you cross check that you’ve set the correct auto brake setting?

A

Check the EICAS (read it off there)

I wanted 3 but selected 2 by accident.

184
Q

Fuel scenario using a AFSC fuel company in Hong Kong.
Fuel complete, however they loaded 400 kg less
What to do ?

A

Safe legal efficient

Can we take this new fuel?
Reduce continency reduce Taxi

Can we make it legal?

Fuel truck is already gone. Is it efficient to have it come all the way back?

I decided to press on 400 kg less, taken off contingency.

By the time we pushed back, the fuel had climbed up to our requested flight plan fuel.
Chris Williams second time seeing this.
Believes it’s mixing of SG fuels.

185
Q

Beware in the 300 above or below optimum if ATC ask if you can fly M0.78, what should you do?

A

Beware, changing speed will change your OPT level.

Input speed into VNAV, check new OPT.

THEN EITHER, yes. Or lowest we can do is M0.82… or descend.

186
Q

Maintaining 15 kn above MMS passing through Flight level 200 is that for climb or descent?

A

That is in the FCOM climb policy

Only really an issue on the ER at heavyweights

Never seen it be an issue for 300

187
Q

Fact
As Captain no need to verbalise SOP’s

Ex :
“ we are above 5000 feet now accelerating to 300 kn” just do it.

A

Also don’t ask first officer to remind you, be confident and just do it.

Example :
Speed control later in the climb

188
Q

Fact
As Captain no need to verbalise SOP’s

Ex :
“ we are above 5000 feet now accelerating to 300 kn” just do it.

A

Also don’t ask first officer to remind you, be confident and just do it.

Example :
Speed control later in the climb

189

Patrick Lau has 4 stage of WS prep, what are they?

A

1) not expecting: WS FCST 070/10
- keep AST and standard OPt

2) Not expecting: 150@15G20
- remove AST and harden F15

3) Expecting: ie TYPHOON
- max TO and F20

4) Expecting Sig Windshear (reported or alerts?
- delay takeoff or departure.

191
Q

A

Left:
Version activated
Highest MRA
EDG downloaded (check supported airports, if only one, must be adequate)
Plan runways
Documents downloaded
Signed on

CENTRE:
-fuel and contingency
- Alternate and weather
- wx app and version
-

Right:
- How many defects?
Efficiency and overburn
Weather and NOTAMS

192
Q

LDA W into RJTT says that the recommended crossing altitude at MX22 is 1300 feet, this is based off 4.1 miles to touchdown, is accurate?

A

Patrick Lau
4.1 based on direct from MX to threshold, so not accurate.

Actual is 4.3nm.
So 4.3*3= 1290
1290 + 50’ threshold crossing + 21’ elevation

Actual crossing altitude 1360

Can put this in VNAV PAGE
WPT/ALG for Vertical Bearing (FPA)

This will mean with 1300’ set in MCP, your green arc should be just passed Mx.

And because you cross at appropriate altitude, means you can keep same ROD/pitch for the visual segment

193
Q

Can you take flaps 25 or 30 without the gear out?

A

No

Config gear

Any landing flap without gear is config issue

194
Q

SPD LNAV VNAV PTH

A

SPD:
Window open

LNAV:
Correct sequence
Passed or approaching IAF (set FAF)
RWY waypoint (RX or Mx 50’)

VNV PATH:
Speed in VNAV
On approach

196
Q

Can you do the LDA into Tokyo RJTT in LNAV OR ONLY LOC

A

LNAV OR LOC

NP 21.83

197
Q

Turning both FD off and PM back on does what?

Forces auto throttle into SPD mode

P.m. back on for MAP

198
Q

Three final things to check before the thousand foot call stable

A

Gear brake flap

Landing checklist

199
Q

What is a good flow for accepting the fuel?

A

Complete loops:

1) EFF first:
Fuel ordered, expected vs actual, distribution good, tap accept, check receipts and note Fuel Grade.
ACCEPT
Seatbelts on

2) AML:
Enter EICAS fuel
Actual uplift from EFF
Discrepancy within limits

COMMANDERS ACCEPTANCE

200
Q

When does fuel get introduced during engine start? ER versus 300.

A

ER
19 seconds after 20% N2

300
Below 98° EGT
MAX MOTOR approx 26% N3

201
Q

How much fuel is required extra if centre tank fuel is required for the mission on a 300?

A

320 kg.

But
The only time you see centre tank fuel on a 300 is on a CAT B SECTOR.

THEREFORE, DO YOU REALLY NEED CENTRE TANK FUEL FOR THE MISSION? NO

Therefore, don’t worry about the 320 kg extra.

202
Q

Why does the 300 need 320 kg extra fuel when centre tank fuel is loaded compared to the ER which doesn’t need any extra?

A

ER
Received an upgraded scavenge system
(No icing, or locked centre fuel)

300
Has Old scavenge system whereby
320 kg of fuel gets blocked and locked in the centre Tank.

203
Q

What are the main Tank capacities for the 300 and the ER?

A

If you see approx 60 tonnes of fuel, you know it’ll be an issue.

30t is my trigger.

Exact:
300 equals 29.1T per main

ER equals 31.3T per main

204
Q

Max thrust you should use in order to start Taxi?

A

40% N1 on 300

36% N1 on ER

(Why? Sandy ops to avoid vortex: SP 16.17)

Perfect setting for this is by pushing one thrust forward, so it’s one handle width in front of next thrust lever, then match the second)

205
Q

How to create a zone of protection on the 300 radar?

A

Start scale at
1) 40 nautical miles and go down to -10°
Scan up 1° every one or two sweeps

2) 80 nm scale
- continue increasing degree one or two sweeps until ground returns at 80 nm

Any Green blips could be a threat

206
Q

How to operate each individual weather radar?

A

300: fully manual
-Any threats do a zone of protection scan
- ZONE of protection scan at TOD
- scan change every 5000’ on climb and descent

ER:
- Almost always automatic
- keep One in automatic if putting the other in manual
- manual scan 4000’ below if needed

Ex EK:
- AUTOMATIC take off to TOD
- manual JN TOD

207
Q

How much buffer should you automatically see between your top of climb and ENVAR?

A

Put envar in DEST ok VNAV PAGE

At least 20 nautical miles
(if less beware)

If more consider reducing thrust

300:
At 9000 feet :
CLB to CLB1 costs 10 nm

CLB1 to CLB2 costs another 10nm

At 14000
5 nm cost

At 22000
2 nm cost

208
Q

Can you take flaps 25 without the gear out?

A

No

No landing flap without the gear

Or else you’ll get config gear

(FAIL)

209
Q

Should your EICAS EPR/N1 be larger or smaller than you are OPT and FMC?

A

It should be smaller, until the ENGINES supply bleed to PACKS

210
Q

What are the two pre-flight items that expire within five minutes?

A

ATC clearance

Refuelling complete

211
Q

How often does the ATIS come out in Japan?

A

Every 30 minutes

212
Q

If holding in Hong Kong requires you to turn right however there is weather on that side what can you do?

A

Ask ATC for a hold in the opposite direction due to weather

Same for if ATC radar vectors cause you to be high for a restriction ,
Ask them to waive restriction

213
Q

What is the curfew period for RCKH?
Definitely worth knowing if it’s your alternate and you are the Captain

A

Port pages
Midnight local until 6:30 am

16:00z to 2230z

214
Q

How heavy is the Wi-Fi system if they say they are going to remove the entire system and where is it located?

A

Located in the tail

Total weight approximately 1.5 tons

Ask ENG and TCO how this will affect your centre of gravity considerations

215
Q

What do we need to verbalise now with the final load sheet?

A

Takeoff weight agrees with OPT and is within limits

MACTOW is within one percent of FMC
And ACG1 is still valid

216
Q

What do we need to verbalise now with the final load sheet?

A

Takeoff weight agrees with OPT and is within limits

MACTOW is within one percent of FMC
And ACG1 is still valid

217
Q

How often should you do your LESRR?

A

Every 5000’

218
Q

What is more important to monitor starting to 300 and ER?
Neither aircraft start monitors what?
300 to watch two parameters

A

Neither Airplane monitors oil temp

300 doesn’t monitor oil pressure

Basically on both you should monitor oil pressure and oil temperature rise

219
Q

Beijing if using northern runways plan on 36 left however what should you ask for?

A

Use wording request easterly runways runway 01 from approach

They will let you know later on , expect heading 030 and clearance for the localiser at 30 nautical miles

UseLNAV intercept
