General Flashcards
During which conditions it is not allowed to use the assumed temperature reduced thrust method?
- When the runway is contaminated with standing water, ice, slush, or snow;
- with anti-skid inoperative.
(AFM section 1 p.7)
Is it allowed to takeoff with the antiskid inoperative?
Yes. According to the MEL.
It is allowed on a dry RWY only.
(AFM section 2 p.4)
What operational limitation we have in case of an IRS fault?
Do not engage either autopilot.
AFM section 2 p.10
What is the time limit of the cargo fire suppression system?
195 min.
AFM section 3 p.7b
When transferring fuel from from tank to tank on the ground with passengers onboard - what limitation do we have?
Fuel quantity in the tank from which fuel is being taken is maintained at or above 907 kilograms.
(AFM section 3 p.9a)
What is the latest time to turn on the window heat?
10 minutes prior to takeoff.
FCOM amplified procedures and AFM section 3 p.15
What wind corrections are used in the OPT?
Wind corrections are calculated using not more than 50% of actual headwinds, or not less than 150% of actual tailwinds, in compliance with relevant operating regulations unless otherwise noted. Tower winds are assumed to be measured at 10 meters (32.8 feet).
(AFM section 4 p.3)
What is the definition for CAS?
Indicated airspeed corrected for static source position error (V C = V I + ∆V p ).
(AFM section 4 p.5)
What is the definition of V1?
The speed from which a decision to continue the takeoff, following a failure of the critical engine at V EF , results in a takeoff distance to a height of 35 feet at V 2 speed that will not exceed the usable takeoff distance and the speed at which the first action is taken to bring the airplane to a full stop that will not exceed the accelerate-stop distance available. V 1 must not be less than the minimum V 1 for control on the ground, V 1(MCG) , or greater than the rotation speed, V R , or greater than the maximum brake energy speed, V MBE .
(AFM section 4 p.5)
What is the definition of V2?
The target speed to be attained at the 35 foot height, assuming recognition of an engine failure at or after V 1 . This speed must be at least 1.13 times the 1G stall speed in the takeoff configuration.
(AFM section 4 p.6)
What is the definition for Vmca?
The minimum flight speed at which the airplane is controllable with a maximum of 5 degrees bank when the critical engine suddenly becomes inoperative with the remaining engine at takeoff thrust.
(AFM section 4 p.6)
What is the definition for Vmcg?
The minimum takeoff decision speed, V 1 , at which, when the critical engine suddenly becomes inoperative at V EF with the remaining engine at takeoff thrust, it is possible to control the airplane with primary aerodynamic controls alone and continue the takeoff.
(AFM section 4 p.6)
What is the definition of Landing Speed?
The minimum speed at the 50 foot height in a normal landing. This speed must be at least 1.23 times the 1G stall speed in the landing configuration.
(AFM section 4 p.6)
The takeoff distance required is measured until what height?
35’ with all engines, 15’ during engine failure.
AFM section 4 p.8
What are the definitions for the 1st,2nd and 3rd segments of the takeoff?
First Segment - Extends from the end of the takeoff distance to the point where the landing gear is assumed to be fully retracted, using takeoff thrust and takeoff flaps at a constant V 2 speed.
Second Segment - Extends from the gear up point to a gross height of at least 400 feet, using takeoff thrust and takeoff flaps at a constant V 2 speed.
Third Segment - The horizontal distance required to accelerate, at constant altitude using takeoff thrust, to the final climb speed while retracting flaps in accordance with the recommended speed schedule.
