CA shall warn them verbally, or present a Warning Letter to the passenger after obtaining the Captains permission
Written in 12 languages and says that the unruly behaviour is a violation of the Civil Aeronautics Law
Report to ground staff/operations and request assistance: Flight, Details of behaviour and Pax info
On the ground

Request assistance from Ground Staff. On the ground as the PIC you do not have the authority to offload the passengers. However as the PIC has the full and final responsibility for the safety of all persons on board and the safe operation of the aircraft, I will be stating to the Ground staff that they ARE to be offloaded. Along with this, passengers bags will be required to be offloaded, new W&B will be required to be sent to the aircraft as well. Getting witness statements and if necessary contact the Company directly and request Police to attend to the aircraft.

In Flight
Take necessary actions to ensure the safety of flight and of the passengers and crew:

Restrain passengers if necessary
Have them seated separately until landing
Contact the company and advise them of the situation and to have Police and Station Manager to meet the aircraft upon arrival
Divert to nearest Suitable airport if the safety of the flight is in danger
Get Cabin Crew to take eyewitness statements
Call upon ANA Staff/DH Crew to assist CA’s if necessary
Inform ATC of the fact that passengers are restrained if required

Q

What is the company operation policy for RTO decision?

RTO Policy–Go Mindedness
The idea of Go-mindedness is that except for the occurrence of a hinderance where there is a serious doubt that the airplane can safely fly, it is safer to continue the takeoff than to reject from a point near V1
To reduce unnecessary high speed RTO’s

Q

Is the controllability of steering varied by the taxi speed?

A
  1. Nose Wheel Steering Tiller provides 75* turn in either direction
  2. Rudder pedals provide 6*
  3. Tiller overides rudder

At higher speeds you must use caution in regards to using the tiller as it becomes very sensitive. It is recommended that when on a straight taxiway that rudder pedals are used, as they provide enough ability for steering.

At lower speeds the tiller is the best method for turning, especially under slippery conditions where the speed must be kept to 3kts. Caution to be used to avoid nose wheel skidding or slipping.

Consists of:

  1. Runway Entrance Lights (REL)
  2. Takeoff Hold Lights (THL)
  3. Maybe replaces with Variable Message Sign (VMS)

Q

What is the obligation of all Pilots instead of PIC regarding Maintaining Watch?

A

Ref CAL 71-2 Says Any person who is piloting an aircraft shall, while in flight, maintain a watch so as to not collide with other aircraft or objects when weather permits.

65
Q

What is Contingency Fuel used for and how is it calculated?

A

The fuel that is carried to allow for difference in actual Temperatures, Wind strength, Flight level, flight weight, aircraft performance or use of anti ice.
for example
Greater of: 5% of Burn Off Fuel or the amount required for 5 minutes holding under ISA conditions
Estimated Landing Weight at Destination
Assumed to be consumed by the time the aircraft lands at Destination, but for weight calculation it is not considered to be consumed

66
Q

What is PCF? Difference from CON?

A

PCF is a standard amount of fuel the company has decided for each route. Its based on statistical processing of actual results.
Difference from Contingency Fuel is that PCF is a Specified Amount as opposed to Contingency Fuel which will vary depending on the the Burn Off Fuel and Flight time.

67
Q

What situation do we need to select two alternate airports?

A

When the weather at the destination airport is forecast to below the Landing Minima intermittently at the ETA

However in the case where the CIG and VIS indicates AT or ABOVE 1500’ and 5000m at the ETA of the first Alternate Airport, the second Alternate Airport is not required

68
Q

What did you check regarding GPS availability?

A

NOTAMS:
GPS Constellation Status : Orbital Plan and Total number of Satellites (if less than 24 then cannot do RNAV5, but no problems as navigate by NAVAIDS)

GPS RAIM for Approach/Terminal Prediction: ensure countries and destination and if applicable alternate

On Flight Plan: RAIM FOR TERMINAL INFORMATION : NIL or specified Time

69
Q

What was updated in Jan 2016?

A

Operational Standard for the use of GPS when flying under Instrument Flight Rules.
GPS can be used as the main Nav system for RNAV in operations where GNSS or GPS is required, DME Gap exceeds 14nm during RNAV1 or 2 flight or DME Gap exceeds 100nm for RNAV5 flight.

70
Q

What is the Engine Failure Reference Procedure?

(12 items its based on)

A

These are established as the reference for takeoff with one engine failure at airports of which surrounding geographic conditions are relatively rigorous, etc. taking in consideration the following conditions:

Engine failure at V1
Runway is dry
OAT highest of normal monthly average
QNH 2992
Nil wind
CONF 2
TOW: maximum for the runway
V2 climb
Engine Out Accel height: 1500’ AFE
Bank angle 25*
Aircon ON
ANTI-ICE: Off

Regarding missed approach, EFRP are established in case the obstacle clearance is insufficient with one engine failure. Eg. VHHH

SID’s do not take into account an Engine Failure and therefore climb gradients may not necessarily be met.

71
Q

What is the Obstacle Limit Weight? Explain the climb gradient in each case of two
engines and single engine.

A

The weight that the aircraft can still satisfy the below requirements.
Requirements
Clear all obstacles in an area 300 feet plus 0.125D where D is the horizontal distance the aircraft has travelled from the runway threshold by 35ft
If heading change is 15* or less, obstacles greater than 2000 feet on either side of the intended track need not be cleared
If heading change greater than 15*, obstacles greater than 3000 feet on either side of the intended track need not be cleared

The requirement is 2.4% in the second segment which is most limiting.

72
Q

Route:
Follow the assigned route in the ATC clearance
When being vectored if the target point has been specified then proceed to that point, if not specified proceed to the nearest fix on the route

Altitude:
If failure occurs at or after MEA or initial assigned altitude then 7 minutes AFTER squawking 7600 climb to Flight Plan filed cruise altitude
If failure occurs prior to reaching MEA, climb to MEA then 7 minutes AFTER reaching MEA, climb to Flight Plan filed cruise altitude
Try to establish communications using all available methods:
3 VHF radios
2 HF radios
SATCOM
ACARS with the company

“TRANSMITTING IN THE BLIND”
If landing at a Towered airport, look for light signals from the tower and acknowledged accordingly

A

Modify CLB/DESCENT speeds when flying into or out of high wind speeds

A

60m and 45m

116
Q

If the ceiling is reported as being below the landing minima, but the reported visibility is above the landing minima, does a departure alternate airport need to be nominated?

A

No. Even when the ceiling is reported to be below the DH/MDH it can be treated as being above landing minima as long as enough visual reference is available. The reported ground visibility should be judged to be above landing minima

117
Q

If the destination airport is closed temporarily (perhaps due to a disabled aircraft / security threat / etc.), can the aircraft continue towards the destination?

A

Yes, after considering the weather conditions at the airport concerned, the flight time to the destination, and the amount of fuel remaining. If it is anticipated that the safety of the flight will be interfered with, the destination shall be changed

118
Q

Is contingency fuel assumed to be used in fuel planning?
