What is the definition of icing conditions?
- When the Static Air Temperature (SAT) on the ground/takeoff or Total Air Temperature (TAT) in flight is 10° C or below and visible moisture of any form is present or operating on contaminated surfaced
What is the limitation regarding Engine and Wing Anti-Ice operation on the ground?
- during taxi and takeoff, the MCDU DATASET MENU must set to ALL when SAT is 10° C or below and icing conditions exist or are anticipated to be encountered below 1700 AFE

What are the operational limitations regarding using flaps?
- the maximum altitude w/ flaps extended is 20,000’
- enroute use of flaps is prohibited
- do not hold in icing conditions w/ flaps extended
- the use of flaps 4 during approach and landing is prohibited
What is the minimum engagement height for autopilot?
- 400 ft AGL
What is the minimum use height (approach) for autopilot?
- 50 ft AGL
What are the limitations regarding warm-up and cool-down?
- before applying takeoff thrust, allow the engines to warm-up for a minimum of 2 minutes
- a 2 minute cool-down must be observed prior to shutting down an engine
When are reduced thrust takeoffs prohibitted?
- the runway if contaminated w/ standing water, slush, snow, or ice
- windshear is present or suspected
- performance mandates no FLEX
What do the different EICAS engine limit display markings mean?
- red = maximum and minimum limitations
- amber = caution range
- green = normal operating range
When is single engine taxi not authorized?
- braking action is less than good
- RVR is less than 1,200’
What are the operational limitations regarding the APU?

What is the definition of a stabilized approach?
- from 1,000’ above TDZE the aircraft must be in the final landing configuration, on correct vertical path w/ a descent rate of 1,000 FPM or less, and correct lateral path
- from 500’ above TDZE the aircraft must be at calculated approach speed (+10, -5) w/ both engine spooled
