Q

The PREFLIGHT section of the SOPM uses the phrase “CLEAR OF ICE” repeatedly for each section of the airplane, What is SkyWest’s philosophy regarding ICE and contamination?

A

GDPM Ch 2.3 “The Ground Deicing Program GDP uses the clean aircraft concept, which means an aircraft must not takeoff when frost, ice, or snow is adhering to the wings, control surfaces, engine inlets, and other critical surfaces of the aircraft.”

Q

What is a Cold Weather Preflight Inspection?

A

1) Inspect the critical surfaces for accumulation of frozen contaminants as follows:
-Visually inspect the critical surfaces and components for frozen contaminants from the gest vantage point possible (e.g. inside the cabin over the wing area, top of stairs, jetbridge). It must be assumed the surface is contaminated if any surface features cannot be visually distinguished that would otherwise be apparent under non-icing conditions.

2) When the aircraft’s critical surfaces are not free of frozen contaminents, or it cannot be determined they are free from contaminants, the PIC notifys station that ground deicing is required.

3) When the aircraft’s critical surfaces are free of frozen contaminents after completeing the tactile and /or visual check, no further deice/anit-ice procedures are required.

When does a Cold Wx Preflight need to be performed?

A

Cold Wx preflight must be conducted when:

-OAT is 5C or less, or
-Wing Fuel temp is 0* or less
-Atmoshpheric conditions conducive to icing exist, or
-the aircraft has remained overnight and may have frozen contaminents due to exposure to frost or precip, which could involve the entire airframe, or
- on any through flight where residual ice from the inbound flight may have accumulated on airframe surfaces or components, or
-Cold soak ice is suspected in the fuel tank area.

Landing. According to the SOPM Maximum performance landing, can the thrust reverse be used until the airplane comes to a complete stop?

A

SOPM CH4.13 (MAX PERFORMANCE LANDING)

Yes. but only as necessary to provide full stopping authority.

89
Q

When are thrust reversers most effective? high or low speeds?

A

High speeds are most effective.

90
Q

Some abnormal procedures require the use of the EMERGENCY/PARKING BRAKE to stop the airplane during landing. When this happens what protections are not available?

A

-Locked Wheel Protection
-Antiskid Protection
-Touchdown Protection

SOPM 4.13 EMERGENCY / PARKING BRAKE

91
Q

On a white board you will be asked to hold. (unanticipated threat) Will be given a fuel quantity;
How Long can you hold?
Assumption- ATC will release the airplane at the time the crew specifies. they will fly the approach to a missed approach (WX), and divert to the planned alternate. Crew Planning should have the goal to arrive at the alternate with reserve fuel intact.

A

Go over fuel planning options. bug out time etc.

92
Q

According to the ERJ SOPM standardized minimum/emergency fuel tables, what fuel prediction at the destination or alternate (as appropriate) would require declaring minimum fuel?

A

SOPM 5.1 (MIN/EMER FUEL)

Min Fuel : 2,250 lbs
EMER Fuel: 1,500 LBS 30 minutes of fuel

93
Q

According to the SOPM standardized Minimum/EMER Fuel Tables, how much time doe the Minimum Fuel value provide?

A

less than 45 minutes remaining based on 1,500 ft AFE/ Green Dot/ Clean

94
Q

According to the SOPM standardized Minimum/EMER fuel Tables, what fuel prediction at the destination or Alternate (as appropriate) would require declaring Emergency Fuel?

A

1,500 lbs or less

95
Q

According to the SOPM standardized Minimum/EMER fuel Tables, how much time does the Emergency Fuel Value provide?

A

30 mins remaining based on 1,500 ft AFE/ Green Dot/ Clean

96
Q

You are holding at a fix due to unforecasted WX below minimums at your destination. what tools do you have available to determine a suitable alternate, and how would you determine how much fuel you need to safely proceed to your alternate?

A

WX/Notams: Dispatcher/ACARS/ATC
Fuel: Dispatcher (Fuel burn to new ALT airport) Present Position Direct/ Secondary Flight plan/Jeppeson

97
Q

Usa the previous white board example. The destination airport is closed (no approach or missed approach) due to extreme weather and the filed alternate is traffic saturated and no longer accepting arrivals. Determine the Fuel requirements for an unplanned diversion.

A

Crew will need to develop a plan to determine a viable diversionary airport. This plan should include dispatch, and FMS calculations. the ALT has to be conservatively within the range of remaining fuel on board. In addition the alternate has to be appropriate for the ERJ, runway length and width and emergency and passenger services.
