FCOM QUESTIONARY BOOKLET Flashcards
Under what conditions it is forbidden to use air conditioning packs in high mode?
With either one or both engine bleed air switches ON, do not operate the air conditioning packs in HIGH for takeoff, approach or landing
What is the required crew action in order not to encounter a nuisance stall warning stick shaker event after takeoff or missed approach, the airplane is maneuvered during flap retraction from Flaps 1 to Flaps Up with Engine Anti-Ice ON or Wing Anti- Ice selected ON after liftoff?
During flap retraction from Flaps 1 to Flaps Up, limit bank angle to 15 degrees and avoid higher maneuver loading of the aircraft until the Leading Edge Flaps Transit light has extinguished. If a higher bank angle is required during this time, avoid the selection of Flaps 1 to Flaps Up until maneuvering is complete or bank angles are 15 degrees or less.
Note: A non-maneuvering segment of approximately 1 nm during all-engine operations or approximately 2.5 nm for an engine-out operation will allow for flaps to be retracted from Flaps 1 to Flaps Up.
What are the crew actions required If vibration is suspected due to the elevator tab inflight?
Reduce airspeed smoothly until the vibration stops, using the thrust levers and pitch attitude. Do not use speed brakes or change airplane configuration to reduce airspeed. Do not reduce airspeed below the minimum speed for the existing flap setting and gross weight. Consider landing at the nearest suitable airport.
Stay at or below the reduced airspeed at which the vibration stopped for the rest of the flight. Limit bank angle to 15° until below 20,000 feet.
Do not deploy the speedbrakes for the remainder of the flight.
Flaps and landing gear can be extended normally during the approach and landing. The speedbrake can be armed for landing
What is the crew action required if VNAV has been armed for takeoff and windshear is encountered with FMC Update 10.8 and 10.8A?
If VNAV has been armed for takeoff and windshear is encountered, press either TO/GA switch and accomplish the Windshear Escape Maneuver. If windshear conditions continue above 400 feet AFE, press either TO/GA switch a second time when above 400 feet AFE. Verify TO/GA engagement and continue the Windshear Escape Maneuver.
For the first flight of the day, before starting the engines, which circumstance needs to consider placing the ignition select switch to BOTH?
At airport elevations at or above 2,000 feet MSL, if the temperature is below 5°C
What is the difference between CRZ descent and Early descent?
If the airplane is more than 50 nm from T/D, if a lower altitude is selected, a CRZ descent will be started if the selected altitude is at or above any FMC altitude constraint.
If the airplane is more than 50 nm from T/D, if a lower altitude is selected, an early descent will be started if the selected altitude is below any FMC altitude constraint.
If the airplane is 50 nm or less from T/D, if a lower altitude is selected, an early descent will be started.
Before connecting ground conditioned air:, what we need to check?
PACK switches……………OFF.
Packs can be damaged if they are operated while ground conditioned air is connected.
When making a no engine bleed takeoff or landing with the APU inoperative, or operative but not providing bleed air, what is the Bleed air switches position if engine failure occurs?
If engine failure occurs, do not position engine BLEED air switches ON until reaching 1500 feet or until obstacle clearance height has been attained.
How can you extend flaps if the captain’s airspeed is erroneously high?
If the Captain’s airspeed is erroneously high, the flap load relief function can activate and retract the flaps to the next lower setting from the flap detent selected with the flap lever. In this case the desired flap position can be achieved by selecting the next higher flap detent beyond the desired flap position. For example, if the desired flap position is Flaps 30, select Flaps 40 and the flaps will extend to the Flaps 30 position. This applies for all flap selections protected by flap load relief.
Vol2 9.20.21
When Takeoffs are not recommended, wet or contaminated rwy conditions?
Takeoffs are not recommended when slush, wet snow, or standing water depth is more than 1/2 inch (13 mm) or dry snow depth is more than 4 inches (102 mm).
What is the Run up procedures?
When engine anti-ice is required and the OAT is 3°C or below, an engine run up is recommended to minimize ice build-up. Use the following procedure:
Check that the area behind the airplane is clear.
Run-up to a minimum of 70% N1 for approximately 30seconds duration at intervals no greater than 30 minutes.
What conditions we do not need altitude correction due to cold temperature?
a. While under ATC radar vectors
b. When maintaining an ATC assigned flight level
c. When the reported airport temperature is above 0°C or if the airport temperature is at or above the minimum published temperature for the procedure being flown.
What is the minimum altitude (AGL) for selecting CMD on the second autopilot during an ILS approach?
800 feet.
Which mode must be armed before the second autopilot can be selected?
Approach mode.
At what altitude will both A/P’s automatically disengage if FLARE is not armed during an ILS dual channel approach?
350 FEET
İf a CLB1 or CLB2 is selected, the derate is maintained for the initial part of the climb. When thrust eventually increases to maximum climb?
15000 feet.
What does it mean ‘INSUFFICIENT FUEL’ FMC alerting message appears in CDU?
A change in conditions or flight plan route causes predicted fuel at destination to be 900kg / 2000 lbs or less.
When the IRS mode selector is turned OFF, the IRS remains powered for approximately …. seconds. The ……… light illuminates until the system is completely shut down.
30 / ALIGN
What is the purpose of the landing gear transfer unit?
Automatically use hydraulic system B for gear retraction if No.1 engine is lost and the landing gear is positioned up.
What is the minimum fuel quantity limitation in the main fuel tanks for ground operation of the electric hydraulics pumps?
760 kgs in the related main tank.
What is the purpose of PTU Power transfer unit?
The purpose of the PTU is to supply the additional volume of the hydraulic fluid needed to operate the autoslats and leading edge flaps and slats at the normal rate when system B engine- driven hydraulic pump volume is lost.
When autobrake is initiated with the AUTO BRAKE select switch at RTO?
Wheel speed is > 90 kts and thrust levers are retarded to IDLE.
TCAS RAs are inhibited below approximately ……. feet radio altitude. Below …… feet when the TA/RA mode is selected on the transponder panel, TA only mode is enabled automatically and the TCAS message TA ONLY displays on the ND.
1000 / 1000
When turning a 737-800 with winglets on the ground, the minimum pavement width for a 180-degree turn is?
24.3 meter
