Important facts Flashcards
What 3 things will cause RAT to deploy automatically?
1) both engines fail and centre HYD system has low pressure. 2) all 3 HYD systems have low pressure. 3) both transfer busses lose elec power.
With auto brake on RTO, when will brakes be applied?
If groundspeed is over 85 kts, as soon as both thrust levers are in idle.
Equipment required to fly in RVSM airspace?
An autopilot, an altitude alerting system, a transponder, and two primary altimeters.
Stable approach criteria?
In planned landing configuration, stabilised on the lateral and vertical profile, stabilised at the target approach speed.
What causes the STABILIZER Eicas warning to appear?
Uncommanded stabilizer motion is detected or stabilizer is inoperative
What conditions can a first officer call STOP for during takeoff roll?
Fire warning, engine failure, predictive windshear warning, RAAS runway alert, significant handling difficult or blocked runway.
FUEL - in case of a fuel shortfall, what is the requirement to continue, if max delay is known, or eat received?
1 runway, landing assured.

Normal, secondary, direct
What are the 3 flap/slat modes?
Primary, secondary, alternate
What are the navigation capability requirements for MNPS airspace?
2 independent LRNSs (eg INS GPS)
What temperature will cause the EICAS FUEL TEMP LOW advisory to show?
If fuel gets to within 3 degrees of fuel freeze temperature
How many extinguisher bottles are there in the cargo compartment?

Doing a 2d approach… at what point should the -3* fpa be selected?
0.2 miles before FAP
Fuel jettison how many kg/minute (roughly)
1500kg/minute
If using auto land, how many m added to IFLD?
300m
Where to find required nav performance for an airway?
Lido enroute > tap and hold the airway > nav.
Where to find required equipment for RNP/RNAV airspace
Qrh > operational info
RNP approach… when to set minima?
When cleared for the approach
RNP approach… when to set missed approach alt?
When 300 below the missed approach alt.
If you have an engine fire, and the engine fire CL is run, do you still need to do the eng fail CL?
No, it can be overridden.
