  2. The crew is aware that LOC or GS beam fluctuations, independent of aircraft systems, may occur and the PF is prepared to immediately disconnect the AP and take appropriate action, should unsatisfactory guidance occur.
  3. At least CAT 2 capability is displayed on the FMA, and CAT 2/CAT 3 procedures are used.
    Visual references are obtained at an altitude appropriate to the performed CAT 1 approach, otherwise a go-around is initiated.
28

31
Q

What are the maximum speeds for landing gear extension and retraction?

A

32
Q

What is the limitation regarding pivot turns?

A

33
Q

What are the limitations regarding taxi operations with one or more deflated tires?

A

If tire damage is suspected after landing or after a rejected takeoff, inspection of the tires is required before taxi.
If the tire is deflated but not damaged, the aircraft can be taxied at low speed, provided the imitations/restrictions specified in the LIM chapter are observed.

34
Q

Is it authorized to use the EGPWS display for navigation purposes?

A

No

35
Q

When must the EGPWS TERR Pb. be switched off?

A

The EGPWS enhance function should be inhibited (TERR pushbutton to OFF, on the GPWS panel) when the aircraft position is less than 15 NM from the airfield:
 For operations to/from runways not incorporated in the EGPWS database
 For specific approach procedures which have previously been identified as potentially producing false terrain alerts.

36
Q

Following a loss of cabin pressure, the minimum oxygen required for a particular flight and flight crew, assumes the mask regulator is in what position?

A

The assumption is that the mask regulator is in the NORMAL (diluted oxygen) position.
Note: Based on the use of a sealed mask, may be shorter for bearded crew (in terms of performance, pressure, or duration).

37
Q

The minimum oxygen required for a particular flight and flight crew provides what protection against smoke with 100% Oxygen?

A

15 min at 8000 ft.
Note: The above times which are based on the use of a sealed mask, may be shorter for bearded crew (in terms of performance, pressure, or duration).

38
Q

On the A330 Freighter, the minimum oxygen required for a particular flight and flight crew assumes what protection for the Main Deck Cargo fire suppression procedure?

A

‐ With 100 % oxygen for the first 15 min (climb and initial cruise at 20 000 ft)
‐ Then with NORMAL mode (remainder of cruise, and descent)
‐ With 100 %/EMER mode for 1 min every 7.5 min throughout the procedure.

39
Q

What is the operating limitation of the APU if the LOW OIL LEVEL ECAM advisory is displayed?

A

The APU may be started and operated even if the message is displayed. However, maintenance action is required within the time limits specified in the LIM Chapter

40
Q

What is the limitation regarding consecutive start attempts of the APU?

A

After 3 consecutive start attempts (duty cycles), a 60-minute cool down is required before the next start.

41
Q

What is the minimum battery voltage to start the APU?

A

25.5 V with BATT sw. OFF
(if not elec. powered for 6hr or more)

51
Q

What are the engine starter limitations for the A330?

A

For all A330: The max continuous operation of the starter is 5 minutes.
RR Engines:
Two 3-minute duty cycles and a consecutive 1- minute cycle are permitted with a run down to zero N3 between each cycle.
After one continuous operation, or the three cycles, it is required to wait 30 minutes to allow the starter to cool.
There must be no running engagement of the starter when the N3 is above 10% on ground, or 30% in flight.
GE Engines:
Between each cycle, wait 30s per minute of operation for starter cooling.
After two consecutive 5 min duty cycles, wait 10 min to allow starter to cool before each subsequent 5 min duty cycle.
No running engagement of the starter when N2 is above 30%.

52
Q

What are the engine starter limitations for the A340?

A

For all A340: The max continuous operation of the starter is 5 minutes.

Q

What are the limitations regarding the use of Reverse Thrust?

A

A

No

55
Q

Is reduced thrust take-off allowed with inoperative aircraft systems or components that affect performance?

A

Yes, provided the associated performance shortfall has been applied to meet all performance requirements.
