26
Q

Automatic Take-off Thrust Control System (ATTCS).

A

Must be operative for ALT T/O-1 mode.

27
Q

Thrust reversers.

A

Do no go-around after thrust reverser deployment.

28
Q

Maximum Oil Pressure.

A

Below 88% N2 - 110 psi.
This may be exceeded during start if oil temp is below 21°C. The engine must remain at idle until pressure is less than 110 psi.

At or above 88% N2 - 110 psi.

General Limitations
Take-off thrust time is limited to 5 min.

Vibration in amber range is limited to 5 min in take-off or go around or 10 seconds during the remainder of the flight phases.

Operation in oil pressure amber range:
111 to 115 psi - limited to 5 min.
116 to 155 psi - limited to 2 min.
Total time above 110 psi - limited to 5 min.

Operation between 34 and 50 psi (34 and 48 XR) is permitted during take-off or go around phases.

29
Q

Minimum oil temperature for starting.

A
  • 40°C for MIL-L-23699D

- 54°C for MIL-L-7808K (XR)

30
Q

Describe the engine warm-up limitation prior to take-off.

A

Prior to take-off the engines must be allowed to run at low thrust to stabilise the engine temperatures before take-off thrust is adjusted.

31
Q

Describe the engine warm up limitations after starting.

A

The engines must be allowed to run at idle or taxi thrust for 4 minutes for cold engines and 2 minutes for warm engines.

32
Q

What is the definition of a cold engine?

A

An engine that has been shutdown for more than 90 minutes.

33
Q

What is the minimum oil temperature prior to increasing N2 above 83%?

A

40°C or the engine has been running for at least 8 minutes.

34
Q

Describe the engine cool down procedure.

A

The engines must run at idle or taxi thrust for at least 1 minute.

35

A

200 ft.

36
Q

Is a single engine go-around permitted on a CAT 1 ILS?

A

On all CAT 2 approaches.

40
Q

What is the minimum height after take-off or go-around that the autopilot may be engaged?

A

500 ft.

41
Q

What is the minimum runway visual range for a CAT 2 approach?

A

1200 ft.

42
Q

A

10 kt.

44
Q

What is the maximum headwind component for a CAT 2 approach?

A

25 kt.

45
Q

When is a CAT 2 approach prohibited?

A

Single engine operations.

46
Q

What limitations apply to the Integrated Standby Instrument System (ISIS)?

A

LR.
The aircraft cannot be moved during power-up initialisation and must not be caged in flight.

LR.
On batteries only the ISIS lasts 40 minutes, but may be extended to 45 minutes with pitot heat sensor 3 heat button turned off in non-icing conditions.

XR.
The ISIS relies on 28 volt DC power from the backup hot bus. In an electrical emergency, it will operate on the aircrafts batteries for 240 minutes.
