(AOM 2.6)
When must you fly a Non-CDFA Approach (4)?
- No straight-in minimums published.
- If approach requires MDA mins (i.e., circling).
- No Descent Angle published in VS section (or if glidepath ≥ 4.5°).
- No local altimeter (+ apply cold Wx corrections).
Note: CDFA = Continuous Descent Final Approach.
(AOM 2.21.8)
Explain what aircraft lights to turn on/off for…
1. Taxi?
2. Runway crossings?
3. Position & hold?
4. Cleared or takeoff?
5. Climbing/Descending through FL180?
6. Cleared to land?
7. After landing?
- TAXI - ON (forward).
- STROBE - ON (forward).
- STROBE, WINGINSP, LOGO, TAXI - ON (forward).
- L WING - NLG - R WING - ON (3 forward).
- WINGINSP, LOGO, L WING-NLG-R WING, TAXI-RECOG-WINGTIP off in climb (back), on in descent (forward).
- NLG & TAXI - ON (forward).
- TAXI remains on.
(AOM 2.1.1.2)
What is QNE, QNH and QFE?
- QNE = NE for Normal Enroute = 29.92” or 1013 hPa (mb) is set. Operate at a FL. hPa = mb.
- QNH = NH for Normal Home = Local altimeter set. Altitude above MSL.
- QFE = FE for Freaky Elevation = Field elevation on the airport is 0’. Very unusual.
- Transition Layer. Between Flight Levels (FL) above & Altitudes (feet) near ground, is a Transition Layer that separates the two areas. At the top of the Transition Layer is a Transition Level and at the bottom of this Transition Layer is the Transition Zone.
- Descending: Change QNE to QNH at Transition Level (Jepessen approach plates shows Trans Level to the left of Trans Alt (Trans Level is for the and Trans Alt is for a missed approach)). STARs only show Transition Level).
- Climbing: Change QNH to QNE at the Transition Alt (Jepessen SIDs only show Transition Alt).
How do you calculate a DDA for a CDFA approach that doesn’t have vertical guidance (MDA minimums)?
- Add 50 ft to the MDA minimums to get the DDA. This DDA is what you set for Baro Minimums.
Note: CDFA = Continuous Descent Final Approach. CDFA’s require local altimeter, straight-in minimums (no circling) and Descent Angle published on chart.
What is the climb schedule?
- 250 kts until 10,000 ft, then climb at 300 kts / 0.80 M.
- Minimum > FL180 is 250 kts / 0.80 M and/or ≥ 200 fpm.
(AOM 2.19.1)
- Minimum > FL180 is 250 kts / 0.80 M and/or ≥ 200 fpm.
How many total passengers (including children < 2?
Certified for Max of 19 pax, including children under age of 2.
* Children under age of 2 can’t be held in seats 5, 6, 7, or 8 (are these forward facing?).
* Only 1 child under age of 2 can be held in divan seat. Only in aft facing seats w/available O2 masks.
* The F/A has the jump-seat & mask.
(AOM 12.7)
What are Missed Approach profile & callouts?
(one & two engine)
* FP: “Go-Around [TOGA], Power Set, Flaps 6, Spoilers 0”.
* MP: “Flaps 6, Spoilers 0 Selected…Positive Rate”.
* FP: “Gear Up, Set Missed Approach Altitude, Speed - FMS”.
* Climb: 2 eng’s = Between Vref+10 to Vfe [210 kt max], OEI = Vac.
* MP: “F-R-A” (2 eng’s = 1000’ AFE, OEI = ESA).
* FP: “Set Vfto”.
* PM: Vfto-30”.
* FP: “Flaps 0”.
* PM: “Flaps 0 Selected…Vfto-10”.
* FP: “Slats in, After Takeoff Checklist”.
* MP: “Flaps 0, Slats In, Selected”.
What are the V1 Cut profile and callouts?
V1 CUT
* PM: “Engine Failure…Rotate…Positive Rate”.
* FP: “Gear Up…HDG/NAV VS/VNAV…Speed MAN”.
* Climb at V2 to FRA (≈800’-900’).
* PM: At FRA, “F-R-A”.
* Level off by pitching down to put Flight Path Vector to horizon.
* FP: “Set Vfto”.
* PM: “Vfto-30”.
* FP: “Flaps - 0”.
* PM: “Flaps - 0 Selected…Vfto-10”.
* FP: “Slats In”.
* PM: :Slats In Selected”.
* Climb at Vt (Vfto) to ESA.
* At ESA, level off & ask for, “Set 200kt…A/P”. Ask for “QRC Inflight Engine Shut Down or Fire”.
Notes:
* Vfto or Vt = Final Take Off speed and minimum engine-out en route climb speed that provides the best engine-out rate of climb with flaps up.
* Vac = Approach Climb speed is the minimum airspeed for single-engine go-around.
