A

Intersection t/o may only be performed if the crew determines perf data is available and used for that intersection takeoff

70
Q

Because the r/w is considered a critical zone, what should pilots consider before entering the departure runway?

A

Set speed, flaps 5, climb thrust

77
Q

What are the flap retraction calls at min cleanup alt?

A

Set speed (if required) then:
- Climb thrust (for flaps 1 t/o)
- Flaps 1, climb thrust (for flaps 5 t/o)
- Flaps 5, climb thrust (for flaps 10 or 15 t/o)
- Flaps 15, climb thrust (for flaps 25 t/o)

78
Q

How many miles out from the top of descent should crews begin the TOD tasks?

A

In general, 50nm. For airports where ATC gives stepdown arrivals, or low altitude, start about 150nm out.

79
Q

What is the minimum alt to delete a reduced climb?

A

5,000’ AAE. Occasionally sooner (ATC requests best rate for traffic)

80
Q

Why do we NOT delete the reduced climb settings at 5K’ AAE in the max?

A

GE has determined that wear and tear on the hot section is reduced by running the engine cooler for longer period of time. Reduction is phased out by 15K’

81
Q

At 280 kts idle descent, what is the average number of NM travelled for each 1,000’ of alt loss?

A

About 2.5-3 (depending on weight)

82
Q

What is the max holding airspeed and timing for turns when between 6K and up to and including 14K?

A

230 kts and 1 minute legs

83
Q

What are the max speeds for timing and holding when below 6,000’

A

200 and 1 minute legs

84
Q

How do you determine if your intended r/w is grooved?

A

Jepp-9A for that airport

85
Q

what are some performance considerations when landing in moderate or heavy rain?

A

Pilots must confirm data using PWB input of 2-MED TO POOR results in + stopping margin for:
- Grooved or porous friction course (PFC) w/heavy rain (+RA) or
- Non-grooved r/w with moderate or greater rain (RA/+RA)
If PWB does NOT = + margin, the flight must go-around, hold, or divert

86
Q

Why do we set MCP Alt to zeros on all instrument approaches except circles?

A

To ensure the ALT ACQ doesn’t interrupt the VNAV PATH or VS descent to the DA/DDA

87
Q

When is the PF required to have their hands and feet on the controls?

A

Prior to final approach segment when A/P engaged and flaps are extended for maneuvering or approach

88
Q

While on an approach using VNAV, flaps extended, what is the airspeed cursor set by and how can this be changed?

A

FMC unless SPD INTV is used (which is how the FMC speed can be changed)

89
Q

What operational requirements must be met regarding the Jepp approach page to conduct a CAT III approach?

A

CAT III Authorized must be in the title and CAT III approaches are authorized only when using a tailored approach chart labeled “SOUTHWEST HGS ONLY”

90
Q

What is required to get the HGS 4000 to auto capture AIII approach?

A

The STBY mode key must be pushed when AIII is displayed on the right side of the standby line

91
Q

Are we required to change the RNP value for an RNAV (GPS) approach.

A

No. It’s always .30 nm

92
Q

What RNP value should we choose for an RNP approach?

A

The largest that allows successful completion of the approach given the reported vis/ceiling and RAF

93
Q

If flap maneuvering speeds are not displayed on the PFDs, what ref speed is used to calculate flap maneuvering speeds?

A

Vref 40

94
Q

At what alt must the plane be in the planned landing config?

A

1,000’ above TDZE

95
Q

Whose mandatory duty and responsibility is it to call a go-around/missed approach if a stabilized approach is not obtained?

A

Any flight crew member

96
Q

If only approach lighting system is visible, what other lights must be in sight to descend below 100’ above TDZE?

A

Red termination bars or the red side row bars distinctly visible and identifiable

97
Q

What criteria should be considered when conducting an RNAV (RNP) approach?

A
  1. A/P use required for RNP < 0.3
  2. Both FDs must be operative & used
  3. Either pilot may fly the approach and land
98
Q

When continuing a NPA in VS, by when must the acft be fully configured and what initial descent rate will you fly after the FAF?

A

Select landing flaps < FAF. Descent rate of 750 fpm

99
Q

Barring charted or ATC assigned airspeeds, what guidance is in the AOM for normal flap extension sequence?

A

5, 15, then landing

100
Q

If ATC instructs a missed approach while flying an RNAV approach and on an RF leg, how will you navigate and what altitudes will you fly?

A
  1. Max airspeed on the RF leg
  2. Lateral flight path tolerances
  3. Setting missed approach altitude
101
Q

What effect does selecting TOGA have on LNAV active roll mode? (On RNAV approach)

A

LNAV remains the active mode because you are on an RNAV approach in LNAV

102
Q

When must the captain disengage the A/P and A/T during an HGS AIII approach?

A

NLT 1,000’ above TDZE

103
Q

When is use of the HGS required for T/O and/or landing?

A
  • T/O: vis < 500 RVR, where allowed
  • Landing: less than 1800 RVR, depending on the approach or “SW HGS ONLY” is published on the approach plate
104
Q

Who initiates the 1,000’ above TDZE call on HGS AIII approach?

A

The FO. “1,000’ AIII mode.”

105
Q

When does the FO’s instrument monitoring end on an AIII approach?

A
