A

Increase thrust progressively to reach take-off thrust by 40 kts ground speed

30
Q

How should thrust be set on the P&W engines when Tailwind or Crosswind is more than 20 kts?

A

Increase thrust rapidly to about 70% N1 (1.15 EPR) then progressively to reach takeoff thrust by 40 kts ground speed

31
Q

How should thrust be set on the LEAP engines when Tailwind or Crosswind is more than 20 kts?

A

Increase thrust rapidly to about 70% N1, then above 15 kts ground speed, progressively increase thrust to reach takeoff thrust by 40 kts ground speed

32
Q

What should the PM monitor below 80 kts?

A
  • N1/EPR has reached the rating limit
  • EGT
33
Q

Above what altitude can the autopilot be turned on?

A

Above 100 ft AGL

34
Q

After how long of a expected delay do we have to give a PA to inform the passengers about it?

A

10 min delay
If situation persists, an update shall be given at intervals not exceeding 30 min

35
Q

When can you request the “After Start Checklist”?

A

After the TUG, bypass pin and hand signals are seen

36
Q

Can we set the park brake when lined up on the runway?

A

No, not allowed

37
Q

What does the PF say when lining up on the runway to confirm the runway?

A

J2 RWY 07R

38
Q

When doing the “Line Up” checklist what does the PF/PM say when answering “T/O RWY”?

A

RWY 07R J2

39
Q

What is NADP 1?

A

800 ft AAL Thrust Red / 3000 ft AAL Acceleration

40
Q

What is NADP 2?

A

800 ft AAL Thrust Red / 800 ft AAL Acceleration

41
Q

What is the maximum speed we can accept during a climb?

A

M.79 / 320 kts

42
Q

What should the rate of climb be within 1000 ft of your assigned altitude?

A

Max 1500 ft/min, unless otherwise instructed by ATC

43
Q

Can PM start with paperwork before reaching Top of Climb?

A

No, wait until Top of Climb

44
Q

When shall headsets be worn on departure?

A

From Pushback to Top of Climb

45
Q

Does PF or PM do the “one thousand to go” call?

A

PM

46
Q

If cleared for high speed below 10000 ft, what small thing can be done to minimize drag?

A

Retract the landing lights

47
Q

When in the start sequence do we call “Clear to Disconnect” to the ground staff?

A

After the start flow but before After Start CKL

48
Q

If Flaps 3 is used for take-off, how do you do flap retraction?

A

Stright from Flaps 3 to nr 1
Don’t do Flaps 2

49
Q

How do you know that you are tracking the centerline of a taxiway?

A

Keep the centerline between the PFD and ND

50
Q

Why should we avoid stopping in a turn?

A

Excessive power might be needed to start moving again which can cause jet blast or FOD damage

51
Q

What happens if both pilots acts on the tiller or pedals at the same time?

A

Their inputs are added up until the maximum value

52
Q

When should PACK 1 be turned ON after take-off?

A

After CLB thrust reduction

53
Q

What can happen if you turn ON the PACKS before having done the thrust CLB reduction?

A

Can result in an EGT increase

54
Q

What can happen if PACK:s are selected to ON before thrust reduction altitude?

A

Can cause a EGT increase

55
Q

What is the danger with too much lateral inputs on takeoff especially in crosswind conditions?

A

It causes spoiler extension which increases the tendency to turn into the wind. It also decreases lift and increases drag

56
Q

Up until what point is the yaw bar available on takeoff?

A

Up until 30 ft

57
Q

When does the pitch and roll blend into flight mode during takeoff?

A

Pitch: From 5 sec after pitch is 8 deg
Roll: From 2 sec after pitch is 8 deg

58
Q

How do you use the ARS system for flap retraction?

A

In CONF 1+F ARS activates at 210 kts and it automatically retracts the flaps to 0 but keeps the Slats in pos 1
As the aircraft accelerates above S speed, the flap lever can be selected to 0 and the slats retracts

59
Q

What is the difference between NADP 1 and NADP 2?

A

NADP 1 is 800/3000 and used for close in noise abatement

NADP 2 is 800/800 and is used for distant noise abatement

60
Q

Describe what a FLEX take off is?

A

As OAT increases above the flat rated temp the thrust output decreases
If the weight is less than what full thrust can allow we want to decrease the thrust output to save the engine.
The way to tell the FADEC what thrust to use is to input a FLEX temp by finding the spot that balances temperature and actual weight

61
Q

Does FLEX decrease fuel burn for a takeoff?

A

No, takeoff takes longer so it actually burns more fuel, but the savings on engine maintenance is larger

62
Q

What flap setting should be used to extend engine life?

A

The setting that gives the highest FLEX temp as that corresponds to less thrust

63
Q

When is a higher Flap setting more advantageous?

A

For short runways as it shortens the takeoff distance and it also increases runway limited weight, but it decreases 2nd segment limit takeoff weight

64
Q

What speed is SRS trying to keep on takeoff?

A

V2+10

65
Q

What protections does SRS have?

A

Attitude protection is 18 deg
Speed protection is V2 +10
V/S protection is 120 fpm min

66
Q

When would you use the ARS system for flap retraction?

A

When G dot speed is higher than a speed restriction

67
Q

What is the max N1 when taxi into a bay?

A

40 % N1

68
Q

Normal speed limits when taxi into a bay?

A

6 kts initially and 3 kts the last part

69
Q

What is the separation between a A320 and a heavy aircraft on departure from the same runway?

A

2 min
