Handling Notes Flashcards
Taxi and break out power not exceed what
40% N1
How to keep centreline
Keep it between PFD and ND
Speeds recommended for taxi
Max 30kts straight, 10kts sharp turn
What to sequence to remember when flying
Power, attitude and trim
What sort of flight control system
Manoeuvre demand system
How to operate stick in a climb
Pull stick to desired climb angle, once achieved, relax pressure and a/c holds there
What sort of inputs on the side stick
Smooth and at a rate compatible with the response of the aircraft
Thrust lever positions
- Idle (full aft)
- Climb (first detent, vertical)
- FLEX/MCT
- TOGA
What readings to pay particular attention to
N1 or EPR
Time for full power from idle
8secs
Flying scan
Attitude- speed - attitude - altitude- attitude - heading - attitude
When does nose wheel steering reduce to zero
130kts
When to release forward pressure on stick during TO
80kts gradually, neutral position by 100kts
When to factor crosswind take off
Greater than 20kt
Crosswind TO technique
-full forward stick
-set 50%N1, stabilise, move levers quickly to 70%
-then move steadily to take off setting
-FLEX/TOGA must be set by 40kt GS
What is the initial rotation rate
3degs per sec to 15deg
When does rotation rate reduce slightly
Passing 10degs
When do flight controls change to manoeuvre demand system
5secs after lift off
When to retract landing gear
Positive climb on VSI, altimeter and rad altimeter
When does auto trim cease during landing
50ft
Flare height
30ft
Outside scan when landing
Runway perspective/PAPIS
Aiming point touch down markings
Inside scan when landing
-IAS (trend)
-Attitude
-V/S thrust
-ILS
Speed at initial climb
V2 + 10kts
Where to shift focus when attempting flare
End of the runway
Flare law
Hold back pressure and use one continuous motion
When to close thrust levers when flare
30ft
When does PM call “pitch” during flare
When it exceeds +10degs
Crosswind landing technique
Keep flying the picture, don’t change, use rudder to align centreline
What does PF call during GA
“Go around flaps” and selects TOGA
PM raises flaps one setting
APS removal of buffet process
Reduce pitch attitude by 5 degs increments
