Q

What is the formula to determine relative height of thunderstorm using radar?

A

distance (NM) x tilt (in °) x 100

ie; return showing 40nm and disappears at 3° down

40x3x100. a/c is 12000ft above.

LLWS Considerations

During weather briefing, Flight Crews should pay special attention to:

A

LLWS Considerations

• Inversions and the severity and movement of fronts in the vicinity of departure, destination and alternate airports; and

• Fronts with a surface temperature change of 6°C or more across the front and/or fronts moving at speeds of 30 knots or more; and

• The wind direction above and below the front

Q

Fuel considerations for low temp cruise…

A

-When SAT -65°C or less monitor fuel temps.
-Dispatch should not plan flight at temps lower than -65°C for more than 90 min, or
-they should use Boeing fuel temp program.

Q

Overweight Landing

A

All Air Canada Rouge aircraft are certified to land overweight in abnormal or emergency situations.

For abnormal or emergency situations, authorized to land overweight provided that the WAT and landing distance required are met.

In all cases of overweight landings, it is important to consider brake energy required for stopping. Circumstances may allow some modification of braking technique to minimize brake energy levels, and procedures in the AOM should be reviewed.

advise Maintenance in advance so they can prepare for the overweight landing check, which shall be performed prior to the next departure;

logbook entry is required and shall include appropriate information such as aircraft weight, if a hard landing occurred, or if heavy braking was used.
