27
Q

How do you enter a non-standard acceleration altitude in the FMS?

A

28
Q

What should you do if you suspect fan blade icing during taxi? Is this required?
How do you perform the engine power check for takeoff in icing conditions? Is this required?

A

On taxi if you suspect fan blade icing run the engines up one at a time to 54% N1 and hold it there for 30 seconds each. This is not a required procedure
Once lined up on the runway, hold brakes and advance both thrust levers to 54% N1 (instead of 40% like normal). If there is abnormal vib wait for 30 seconds before beginning the takeoff roll. If not, or if the aircraft starts to slide, release the brakes and go. This procedure IS required for EVERY takeoff in icing conditions.

29
Q

When are you required to turn on the ADSP Heater?

A

OAT at or below freezing (after AC Power is applied) or, when the Smart Probes are contaminated, or suspected to be contaminated.

31
Q

What is the procedure if a door handle raised while the door is armed, or the slide is fully deployed inadvertently?

A

Ensure all personnel remain clear of the door. Ensure the door is not used for egress/deplaning. Immediately notify station operations and to keep all ground personnel clear of the door area. Arrange an alternate means of passenger and crew deplaning with station operations (preferably L2). Notify and coordinate with flight attendants regarding the deplaning location and process. Notify Maintenance. A maintenance write-up is required.

( ) means OR, - means AND.

35
Q
  • What does FADEC automatically abort engine starts for?

- Name the circumstances under which you would have to manually abort a start?

A
  • Hot, Hung, No Light Off
    (note: this applies on the ground only)

-Manually abort for:
• No positive oil pressure indication within 10 seconds after N2 speed starts to increase
• During engine start with a tailwind, when a positive increase of N1 is not indicated before starter cutout (50% N2). In this case, the airplane is repositioned prior to engine start to minimize tailwind effects.
• No ITT indication within 30 seconds after initiation of fuel flow
• ITT exceeds start limit (815°C - Hot)
• Oil pressure stabilizes below the engine limits (25 psi)
• N1 and/or N2 failing to accelerate to stable idle speed (hung start)
• An intermittent electrical pneumatic or starter malfunction occurs before the starter disengagement

36
Q

When another crew member is suspected of being under the influence, what should be done?

Keep them away from airport/airplane. Call the Flight Operations MOD if they refuse.

37
Q

At what RVR do airport SMGCS plans come into effect?

A

1200 RVR.

38
Q

39
Q

What is PAATS? What are the requirements?

40
Q

Does the tug driver need an operable headset for pushback?

A

Only on contaminated ramps.

41
Q

When do we manually abort an engine start?

A

OIL! No positive oil pressure indication within 10 seconds after N2 speed starts to increase. Oil pressure stabilizes below engine limits. ITT! Hot start, ITT exceeds >815*C. No light off, no ITT within 30 seconds after initiation of fuel flow. N1/N2! Hung start; N1/N2 failing to accelerate to stable idle speed. Tailwind; positive increase of N1 not indicated before starter cut-out (50% N2). MISCELLANEOUS! Intermittent electrical pneumatic or starter malfunction occurs before the starter disengagement.

42
