Flt Warning Systems Flashcards
With this GPWS panel configured as shown, which statement below is true?
All five of the GPWS basic mode warnings are inhibited.
Select the correct alerting priority order.
- Stall warnings, 2. Windshear warnings, 3. GPWS warnings, 4. TCAS warnings.
You must make sure the loudspeakers are turned up loud enough so that you can hear the aural GPWS warnings.
False
If the TERR ON ND pb is selected to OFF:
Terrain alerting will still be available for predictive warning of High Terrain ahead of the aircraft.
As the aircraft approaches within 750ft of the selected FCU altitude with the A/P off:
The aural alert sounds and the PFD`s altitude window pulses yellow.
Reactive windshear warnings function during takeoff and landings:
below 1300ft AGL and at configuration Flaps 1 or greater.
The Terrain Clearance Floor is:
Not predictive. The aircraft must actually penetrate the TCF to trigger a warning.
Pressing the T.O. Config. key on the ECAM control panel:
Simulates the application of Takeoff Thrust.
Which item causes a takeoff configuration warning when the thrust levers are placed to a takeoff thrust setting while on the ground but does not cause a warning when the T.O. CONFIG key is pressed after engine start?
Parking brake set to ON.
The T.O. CONFIG warning system is activated automatically when you bring the thrust levers to a takeoff thrust setting while on the ground.
True
You are flying at a low altitude. The GPWS is operating normally, and the TERR ON ND pb on your side of the flight deck is selected ON. You can determine from the ND that:
All terrain within the range selected on the ND is more than 2000 feet below your current altitude.
The Terrain Clearance Floor is:
Not predictive. The aircraft must actually penetrate the TCF to trigger a warning.
You see these indications and hear, Terrain, Terrain - Pull Up
in the flight deck. This means that you are:
Within 30 seconds of hazardous terrain based upon your current flight path angle, track, and speed relative to the terrain.
According to this ND:
You have proximate traffic at 9 o’clock.
According to this ND, you have a TA at:
11 o’clock
