50% N2
Starter disengagement
- Continuous ignition must be on if:
- T/O or Landing on contaminated runways
- Moderate or greater turbulence
- Moderate or greater rainfall
- Vicinity of thunderstorms
- What will happen if both sources of power to FADEC fail?
The engine will shutdown
- The two channels of each FADEC will never make a simultaneous input to the engine except?
Engine overspeed condition
- With an engine failure, FADEC will schedule One engine Out (OEO) power as follows:
TOGA >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> APR
CLIMB >>>>>>>>> MCT
CRUISE >>>> Proportional
- Oil filter bypass or oil chip detection will be presented to the pilot on the EICAS system.
False – only indicated in AFT EQIP BAY
- Gauges are available to alert the pilot to vibration exceedances in both the N1 and N2 sections of each engine.
False
VIB gauges only for N1.
VIB icon will appear inside N2 gauge
- How many different idle power settings are available from FADEC?
- Flight idle
- Approach idle
- Landing idle
- Ground idle
- Reverse idle
- How is engine oil temperature kept under control?
Fuel/Oil heat exchanger
- In the event of FADEC failure, the other engine FADEC can provide fuel control of both engines?
False
- One Engine Out (OEO) fuel scheduling from FADEC will occur when the N1 speed difference between the engines exceeds:
15%
- How will you know that APR power is being scheduled by FADEC?
Green APR icon
will appear
inside N1 gauge
- What will selection of the High Power schedule switchlight do?
MCT power on both engines, HOWEVER use is PROHIBITED
- FADEC continues to update its power calculation during takeoff up to

It locks in this setting until 400 AGL
- Starter assisted N2 limit?
45% N2
- Engine cross bleed starts are accomplished using:
Bleed air from the other operating engine
- What occurs during a thrust reverser deployment in flight?
FADEC will schedule IDLE trust on the engine but the thrust lever will not move
WATER and WASTE
