General Flashcards
What is Econ climb schedule?
250 / vref30+80 to 10,000’
320 / M.85
Engine fire on ground (bottles use)
Second bottle may be discharged without waiting 30 seconds
What is the drill title for a crew abnormal engine start abort?
Engine Aborted Start drill…
How is an Engine Severe Damage situation indicated?
Airframe vibrations with N1 seizure
How to run a Eng Svr Damage checklist if Eng Fail is displayed on EICAS? (after flaps up man. speed)
Override Eng Fail checklist
Select from Unannunciated Checklist
What checklist is called for during a Rapid Depressurization Drill?
Checklist CABIN ALTITUDE
Without LAND 2 or 3, when must the autopilot be disengaged by on approach?
100’ AGL
Diversion Guidance
- Diversion Guidance Checklist (NC.36)
- Heavy Weight Guidance Checklist (NC.37)
- Landing Distance Calculation (OPT or QRH 11.58)
- Overweight Landing Checklist (ECL or QRH 0.18)
- Landing Climb Limit Weight (QRH 11.55)
- Brake Cooling Schedule (QRH 11.58)
- ABC OD
- Fuel Jettison
- Arrival Prep / Briefing
Describe engine ice clearing run up before take-off
- When 3°C or lower (
Turbulence penetration speeds
290 KIAS below 25,000’
310 KIAS / M.84 (whichever is lower) at and above 25,000
What vertical AFDS mode is recommended during climb or descent in severe turbulence?
Vertical Speed Mode (speed on throttles)
(VNAV or FLCH result in excessive pitch changes)
(During cruise VNAV and Alt hold both fly on “speed on throttles”
List 3 take-off “Windshear precaution” techniques
- Use Full Rated thrust ( unless de-rate or ATM required for dispatch)
- Use Flap 20 for optimum performance (unless limited in OPT)
(Flap 15 provides similar performance) - Rotate to and minimize reductions from the “all-engine initial climb pitch attitude” of 15° (which normally provides V2 + 15)
During the take-off, who calls out an abnormal situation?
The crew member observing the abnormality first can call it out
At what airspeed are autobrakes available for a RTO?
85 KIAS
manual braking required below 85 KIAS during a RTO
When is automatic rudder available during take-off?
Above 65 KIAS
What is a consideration with an ENG FIRE RTO?
Wind direction (nose into wind when coming to a stop)
What is the optimum climb speed with take-off flaps?
V2 + 15
= Vx
Acceleration to higher speeds reduces altitude gain
What is maximum bank angle at V2 + 15 with take-off flaps?
30°
If LNAV is armed for take-off, when does it engage?
400’ AGL and within 2.5nm of active leg
- If an immediate turn after take-off is necessary, heading may be preset before take-off
If VNAV is not armed/used for take-off, what will be required?
At acceleration height select select FLCH first then bug up.
Check for change from TO to CLB on EICAS
What speed is commanded by VNAV at acceleration altitude?
Commands 5 kts below flap placard speed based on flap handle position
What margin does maneuver speed provide?
Margin to stick shaker for at least an inadvertent 15° overshoot beyond normal 25° angle of bank
When are engine anti-ice selectors checked/selected to AUTO after take-off?
When flaps retraction complete
What speed if more than 90° from enroute track?
Maintain take-off flaps and V2+15 to V2+25 (using FLCH)
What is Maximum Rate of Climb? (Speed)
Approximately VREF30 + 140 until M.82
FMC does not provide maximum rate of climb speeds
Define LAND 2
LAND 2 – level of redundancy is such that a single fault cannot cause a significant
deviation from the flight path (fail passive)
Define LAND 3
LAND 3 – autopilot system level of redundancy is such that a single fault cannot prevent
the autopilot system from making an automatic landing (fail operational)
LAND 3 caution is annunciated
The autoland system does not have
redundancy for a triple channel
autoland.
Message is a caution if fault occurs after
LAND 3 is annunciated. Message is an
advisory if fault occurs before LAND 3 is
annunciated.

What is F/O call after engines started?
“Right and Left Engine Running”
What is first hour fuel burn? Then heavy and light hour burns?
7500kg
5000kg/hr
4000kg/hr
What is minimum above PFOB required for diversion at ETP or CP?
800-1000kg minimum above PFOB
When must DX be contacted during taxi out re: fuel?
If some CONT is used on taxi out
What type of addition fuel is added on the FP for domestic flights? All others?
EXTRA for domestic
CONT for all others
When must load be advised of extra fuel boarded?
400kg above block fuel
Best rate of climb speed referencing from Flaps Up maneuvering speed?
+60 kts until M .82
Crew rest returning pilot duties
- position/waypoints/ATC
- fuel check
- cockpit scan
- check for QRH
How often we fuel checks?
At least every 1.5hrs and at post flight with Prog 2/2 burn + FOB = Ramp FOB
Equate 1500m vis and 3000m to statute miles

What is the lateral and longitudinal separation in RNP-4?
What must be confirmed on the OFP?
