GENERAL Flashcards
Alert categories?
time critical warning-immediate action for safe flight
Warnings - immediate action
Cautions - possible need for action
Colors?
RED - highest priority
AMBER - 2nd
green - active/engaged/select/tuned
white - real time info /
Magenta - TARGET values / FMC path
Cyan - inactive data, labels,
blue - information
Maintenance inspection?
hard landing - specify
overweight landing - record if not hard also
high drag/side load event :
*ran off prepared surface
*landed short prep surface
*2/more tires blown landing
*large side/side forces / crab
Severe Turbulence
overspeed
high energy stop
lighting strike
extreme dust
tail strike
Any even pilot feels
Company specific
Flap maneuver speed -
recommended operating speed TO/land. Full Man Cap. 40 ( 25+15 bank) to stick shaker - few thousand ft airport alt. Less Man margin as alt increase.
F Up
F1, 5, 10, 15, 25, 30, 40
up = Vref 40 + 70
1= +50
5 = +30
10 = +30
15 = +20
25 = +10
30 = Vref 30
40 = Vref 40
Min Maneuver speed?
Top lower amber band.
within amber band - less full man cap
Flaps down amber band -
Min speed is slowest speed provides full man cap.
1.3G or 40 bank to stick Shaker.
Top amber band - don’t vary G-load
Middle amber band?
1g flight
adequate maneuver capability 30 bank
Stick shaker speed, with G load?
increase
Flap Maneuver speed vs Minimum Maneuver speed?
Flap MS = based on A/C weight
Min MS = AOA and current speed
Flap Man Speed less than Min Man Speed?
only during non normals
Flaps Ups Amber band?
10000ft - flap up vas flaps down amber band functions same.
Increase mach effect 10-20000ft - Man cap at TOP amber band decrease with alt increase - BUt STILL always ADEQUATE Man Cap.
Above 20000ft - Top Amber Band =. speed provide 1.3g Man cap to low speed buffet
Bank vs Load G?
25 = 1.1
40 = 1.3
60 = 2.0g
Man Margin with fixed weight and Alt with increasing airspeed?
Man Margin to stick shaker increase
Factors affecting Man Margin.
Gross weight?
decrease.
Altitude?
decrease with fixed speed
Temp?
negligible
Land Gear?
small decrease when extended.2 kts
Speedbrakes?
decrease at any flap setting
Eng Fail - flap retraction?
small decrease due to reduced lift with loss of thrust. 4kts
Anti Ice?
WAI reduce flaps up/down maneuver margin.
EAI reduce flaps down Man M, no affect on flap ups Man M. WAI on then off - affect remains.
Reduced Man Margin reference to Anti ice systems?
Stall warning logic adjusts stick shaker to lower angle of attack. Higher stick shaker speed and higher min man speed. Flap retraction and extension NOT affected - anti ice thus MAN MARGIN reduced.
Bank angle limit until V2 + 15?
15deg
V2 remains?
acc and flap retraction or until new pitch mode
App speed correction, planning to disconnect A/T for landing?
1/2 reported steady HW component + full gust increment above steady wind.
Calculate 1/2 steady HW?
50% direct HW
35% for 45 deg CW
0% for direct CW
Max app speed correcting for wind?
Max VREF + 15kts or landing flap placard speed minus 5kts
Using A/T for landing?
VREF + 5 only
AVG thrust higher than necessary to maintain command speed. Result is - avg speed exceeding command speed.
