Q

Flap Selection

For normal landings (when conditions permit), which flaps shall be used for landing?

A

Flaps 30: minimize landing speed, distance and maximize ground clearance

Flaps 25: better noise abatement, fuel savings and reduced flap wear

24
Q

What is the rule of thumb speed for holding above FL250?

A

Vref 30 + 100 for adequate buffet margin

25

A

Below 141,000 lbs

109 Kts

26
Q

What is the preferred method of discontinued approach?

A
  1. Pressing GA paddle
  2. Select ALT HOLD
  3. Verify heading and altitude set
  4. Select a Lateral and Vertical mode
27
Q

How is VNAV descent initiated?

3 ways

A
  1. Pass TD point in VNAV PTH
  2. Altitude Intervene w/in 50 NM of TD point
  3. DES NOW prompt (LSK 6R) VNAV DES page
28
Q

What are the RNP Values in a normal profile ?

A

Terminal (DEPARTURE)- 1.0
En route - 2.0
Terminal (ARRIVAL) - 1.0
Approach- .3 to 1.0

29
Q

How does the crew know there will be adequate satellite coverage for the destination?

A

FPR will include statement

• “SATELLITE COVERAGE FOR APPR/DEPT OK”

30
Q

What is the lowest RNP value we can use for approach?

How do we input RNP values?

How do we know we made a correct RNP input?

How long does it remain?

Can we input ANP values?

A

RNP .13
•Must be made prior to IAF on POS REF Page 2/4
• “VERIFY RNP - POS REF 2” message may display - do not go around!
•value is displayed in LARGE FONT
• remains until deleted
• no

31
Q

What is one major “gotcha” flying RNP approaches?

A

Ground speeds must be managed to avoid overshooting due to tail winds or strong crosswinds.
