Go Around

Answer 8

Takeoff (MUST HAVE SRS): 100’ and 5 seconds
Enroute : 900’
RNAV App : 500’
Non-Precision: DDA (+50 feet)

Question 9

When do you need an Auto Land?

Answer 9

You must do an AutoLand below CAT I minimums…

FRONTIER policy is to do an Auto Land if the Visibility is less than 1/2 sm or 2400 RVR.

Special Departure Procedure

Question 18

Vmo
Mmo

Answer 18

350 KTS

.82 Mach

Question 19

What is Acceleration Altitude for:

V1 cut?

Single Eng Go Around?

Two Engine go around?

CAT 3/2

Answer 19

V1 cut = 1,000 feet AFE

Single Engine Go Around = 1,000 feet + DA (ie 200’ + 1000’= 1,200’)

Two engine normal go around from missed approach is 1000’ AFE

CAT 3 = RA is zero so it’s 1,000’. CAT 2 is RA normally 100’ + 1,000 AFE so 1,100’.
