Final Stage Questions Flashcards
VDP
Allows for continuous position to land under normal operations
Usually 3 degree glide path
VDP calculations
DME method-divide HAT by 300
Timing method- divide HAT by 10=time in seconds at 600 fpm ,subtract this from FAF to MAP
Descent planning formulas
Altitude to be lost/vertical speed rate=total minutes to descend
Minutes for descent X ground speed= distance to descend

Single chime Master caution lights illuminate L R fire fail (yellow) APU fire fail (yellow) L R jet ovht fail (yellow)
Fires monitor indications(4)
L R squib 1
L R squib 2
APU test/warn indications
Fire bell sounds APU fire push switch (red) APU bottle armed switch (green) EICAS red APU fire warning Test APU squib 1 2 for 5 seconds then disappear (green)
Emergency equipment
Escape rope Escape hatch 2 flashlights Crash axe Fire extinguisher Smoke hood 3 life vests Oxygen masks/smoke goggles
How to do oxygen test
Oxygen at 1410 or higher
Mask microphone operational
Regulator flow 100
Push test/reset and listen for flow and yellow cross, after little bit it turns black
Squeeze red mask levers and observe yellow cross
Emergency flow control with yellow cross
Release and cross turns black
Bleeds check on originating
Triple chime Bleed air duct aural Master warning light EICAS L R 10 & 14 duct(red) Anti ice duct (red) Duct test ok(green)
Ice detector test
If
GPWS test
GPWS fail EICAS (white) Wind shear fail (white) Terrain fail (white) G/S switch illuminated Glides lope whoop whoop pull up Wind shear X 3 terrain X 2 whoop whoop pull up
