DAAP criteria

A

Pilot crewmembers shall not depart for the planned destination unless current weather
reports, forecasts, or any combination of them, indicate that at the estimated time of arrival
the following conditions are expected for the destination airport:
o Reported turbulence on final approach must be less than moderate.
o Reported maximum gusts on the surface must be 10 knots or less above steady
state wind (gust factor of 10 knots or less).
o Reported maximum crosswind shall be 15 knots or less.
o Low level wind shear is not reported or forecast.
o Pilot crewmembers prohibited from departing because of the above limitations may
depart if a suitable alternate airport is selected. If the alternate airport requires
DAAP relief, the alternate must meet all of the above limitations.

DAAP Restrictions

A

The following restrictions apply anytime crews are using the DAAP relief for preflight
planning:
o Lift dump devices, if installed, must be operational.
o Thrust reversers, if installed, must be operational for operations on wet runways.
o Anti-skid, if installed, must be operational.
o The runway must have an approved and operational visual guidance system or
serviced by an operational glide slope (i.e., ILS, LPV, LNAV/VNAV, FMS Visual
with VGP) unless a DAAP exception has been granted.

DAAP wet

A

Wet or Contaminated Runway Operations: crews shall not depart for a destination if weather
reports or forecasts, or any combination of them, indicate that at the estimated time of arrival at the
destination airport (Part 135 operations) or at the destination and alternate airports (Part 91K
operations), the runways may be wet or contaminated, unless the effective runway length at the
destination airport is at least 115% of the runway length required for dry operations.

Q

DAAP crew limitations

A

Crew Limitations (DAAP): The following limitations apply to crewmembers for operations into all
airports that require the use of the 80% rule for landing. A SIC with less than 100 hours of flight
time logged in their assigned aircraft type shall not conduct any takeoff or landing if:
• Landing at the destination airport requires a Destination Airport Analysis per §135.385(f)
AND:
• Any of the following conditions apply:
o The prevailing visibility for the airport is at or below ¾ mile.
o The RVR for the runway to be used is at or below 4000 feet.
o The runway to be used has water, snow, slush, ice, or similar contamination that
may adversely affect aircraft performance.
o The braking action on the runway to be used is reported to be less than “good.”
o The crosswind component for the runway to be used is in excess of 15 knots.
o Windshear is reported in the vicinity of the airport.
o Any other condition in which the PIC determines to be prudent to exercise the
PIC’s authority.
Note:
The PIC will make all landings at airport that have been approved under
this provision. If two current and qualified PICs are paired together, either
may make the landing. The above limitations may be waived if the SIC is
flying with an authorized Check Pilot or Instructor Pilot

Q

When is a destination alternate required? (FAR 135.223)

A

For at least one hour before and after the estimated time of arrival, the appropriate weather reports or forecasts,
or any combination of them, indicate that -
• The ceiling will be at least 1,500 feet above the lowest circling approach MDA; or
• If a circling instrument approach is not authorized for the airport, the ceiling will be at least
1,500 feet above the lowest published minimum or 2,000 feet above the airport elevation,
whichever is higher; and
• Visibility for that airport is forecast to be at least three miles, or two miles more than the lowest
applicable visibility minimums, whichever is the greater, for the instrument approach procedure
to be used at the destination airport.

17
Q

On Straight out departure APG/iPreflight data guarantees you obstacle clearance for how many miles?

A

30 miles

18
Q

On Straight out departure APG/iPreflight data guarantees you obstacle clearance for how many miles?

A

When a Special DP crew briefing is required, crewmembers will complete the review during the AWARE
brief, and then again before takeoff as part of the pre-departure briefing.
The briefing requires the following be briefed:
•The navigation source to be followed in the event of an engine failure.
•Acceleration height to clean up aircraft.
•The verbal commands the PF will provide to direct the PM regarding flight director steering and/or navigation
mode selection
.•Declaration of an emergency to the appropriate ATC facility

19
Q

If we had frost on the wings or freezing precipitation for departure today, what would we need to do for
departure?

A

Deice/Anti-Ice

20
Q

How do Holdover tables (HOTs) apply to our approved ground de-icing program?

A

We do not have an approved ground De-icing program. We have A041 and HOTs are advisor information only

21
Q

When does a HOT time start during de-ice/anti-ice process? (FOM 7.3.2)

A

At the Start of the FINAL fluid application

22
Q

Is a pre-takeoff contamination check always required or just when de-icing/anti-icing fluid isn’t used?
(FOM 7.3.11)

A

Always. Fluid HOTs are for reference only without a ground de-ice program.

23
Q

Can you “taxi” on surfaces reported as “nil” (RCAM 0)? (FOM 7.6.1)

A

No

24
Q

Can you “taxi” on surfaces reported as “poor” (RCAM 1)? (FOM 7.6.1)

A

Yes (can’t takeoff or land unless conditions confirmed and AFM numbers work)

25
Q

Wet runways – when is a runway considered “Wet” (FOM 7.5.1)

A

Soaked without standing water. Appears “reflective”

26
Q

When examining your required documents to be carried on board, how do you determine the currency
of those documents & manuals?

A

EFB Document Currency Guide

27
Q

Does the FOM list what Equipment, Documents, and Manuals you should find on the aircraft? [FOM
4.5]

A

Yes. Section 4 of the FOM

The aircraft inventory form in EFB lists items for aircraft and should be used

28
Q

What is a CDL? How is it different from a MEL?

A

Configuration Deviation List.
The MEL describes the limitations of aircraft operation in case of a system being inoperative/having
malfunctioned (e.g. transponder failure), the CDL deals with situations where external parts of an aircraft are
missing/fallen off (e.g. fairings, aerodynamic seals or panels).

29
Q

How do we ensure we do not fly over any MEL’s? [FOM 5.1.2]

A

The PIC is to contact maintenance control once the status book is in his or her possession and review the
NEF’s, CDL’s, MEL’s and any other uncompleted 501’s. If there are no discrepancies listed the PIC is still
required to contact maintenance control to confirm that fact and overall status. (Book Report)

30
Q

If an “M” appears in the Description column of the MEL, what does the “M” mean?

If an “O” appears in the Description column of the MEL, what does the “O” mean?

[MEL Definitions 25]

A

M=Maintenance Procedure is required for the item

O=Operational Limitation / Check exists for the item

31
Q

Where can we find guidance of what approaches we are approved to accept?

A

Ops Specs C052

32
Q

When should the Landing Performance information be calculated.? [FOM 4.13.6]

A

Within a reasonable time before landing (approx. 30 minutes) the pilots should get an updated weather briefing
and adjust the numbers if needed. This is another way we mitigate risk during landing

33
Q

What are the seven elements of the Stabilized Approach Criteria? [FOM 4.13.8,

A
  1. All briefings complete
  2. Aircraft fully configured
  3. Aircraft on profile (On GS, VASI/PAPI)
  4. Vertical Speed 1,000’ or less
  5. Airspeed Ref +10kts MAX
  6. CDI within 1 Dot
  7. No Flags
34
Q

After we land, you taxi up to the ramp. What is Flexjet’s SOP for taxiing within close proximity of other
aircraft? [FOM 4.10.5.2)

A

Wing Walkers within 10’ of another aircraft or obstacle

Never Taxi within 5’ of another aircraft or obstacle
