A

Ehh..

127
Q

We are being dispatched to MSP with an eta of 0445z. The weather is as follows. Everything is working. What woukd be required for us to legally dispatch under these conditions weather TAF 280124 vrb03kt, 3/4sm, rabr, vv001, tempo 0406, 1/4sm, tsra vv001

A

? 1.2,3 rule need an alternate

128

I said 500 1 1/4, should be 400-1

129
Q

You are hhh mins FO

Your captain is not a check airman name six conditions which prohibit a you from performing the takeoff and landing?

A

Svrwx brp

130
Q

GLA is not authorized to carry hazmat lost six exceptions?a

Ehh

131
Q

Weather forecast
TAF Kmsp 09008kt 3sm -r sct 030
Fm 110400 5sm -r bkn 015
Fm 110700 p6sm Skc

Eta is 0315
May we dispatch? If so how? If not why not?

A

An alternate

132
Q

List three critical phases of flight?

A

Ehh

133
Q

Explain 3585…

A

visibility is the controlling factor for the destination..
look at temporary in TAF within an hour it has to be 50% lower than required visibility of the expected approach (suitable approach)
1st Alt: 50% lower than derived minimums, ceiling and visibility from the TAF
2nd Alt: At or above minimums NO EXEMPTIONS (TEMP does not matter)
All alternates will be from derived minimums
Main body of TAF has to be at or above the minimums, which will be 1/2 mile due to ILS approach
ALWAYS will be 2 alternates with 3585

134
Q

Explain Hold Over times….

A

It is the estimated time the application of de-icing/anti-icing fluid will prevent the formation of frost, snow, ice on the treated surfaces of an aircraft
The time starts when the beginning FINAL APPLICATION of deice fluid begins
expires after deice fluid loses its effectiveness (described in holdover time chart)
140 degrees heated at nozzle
Temp of fluid heat 160-180 degrees

135
