Q

Are you permitted to use the APU if the LOW OIL LEVEL advisory is displayed on the ECAM? When is
a maintenance action required? Is a logbook entry required?

A

The APU may be started and operated even if the LOW OIL LEVEL ECAM advisory is displayed.
Maintenance action is required within the next 10 hours of APU operation.

NOTE: A logbook entry is not required after receiving this advisory message. Contact MCC to
determine the status of required maintenance action.

18
Q

: The use of AP or FD in ____ ___or _____ mode is not permitted inside the FAF or below 1000 ft AGL
on a visual approach?

A

OPEN DES

DES

19
Q

Autolands are not authorized on runways less than ____ feet wide?

A

150 feet

20
Q

Autolands are approved for CONF 3 and CONF FULL. What configuration is recommended for all
autolands in order to maximize forward slant range visibility?

A

CONF FULL

21
Q

Autolands are prohibited if braking action is reported less than _______?

A

Medium (3)

22
Q

What conditions must be satisfied to conduct an autoland approach?

A
  • CAT II/III runway
  • CAT II/III aircraft
  • CAT II/III trained crew
  • Appropriate ground facilities operational
  • Wind within limits
  • Braking action medium or better
23
Q

: If one or more of the autoland requirements cannot be met, may an approach still be conducted if
the weather is below ½ mile or 2400 RVR?

A

Yes.

If one of the autoland requirements cannot be met (e.g. strong crosswind), a non-autoland
CAT I approach may be conducted down to our lowest authorized CAT I minimums (i.e., 1800
RVR or as published).

24
Q

What is the minimum oil temp. to start the engines?

A

-40 degrees Celsius

25
Q

What are the engine starter duty cycle limitations for NEO aircraft?

A

Start Cycle 1 - 60 Seconds Off
Start Cycle 2 - 60 Seconds Off
Start Cycle 3 - 15 Minutes Off

Maximum Starter Reengagement RPM - 63% N2

26
Q

What are the engine starter duty cycle limitations for CEO aircraft?

A

Start Cycle 1 - 20 Seconds Off
Start Cycle 2 - 20 Seconds Off
Start Cycle 3 - 20 Seconds Off
Start Cycle 4 - 15 Minutes Off

Maximum Starter Reengagement RPM - 20% N2

27
Q

What is the minimum fuel for takeoff?

A

3,300 pounds

28
Q

Is takeoff with center tank fuel supplying the engines permitted?

A

No

29
Q

Is taxi with deflated tires permitted?

A

Yes, given certain conditions are satisfied.

However, taxiing the aircraft with deflated tires
should only be done if absolutely necessary and all other means of moving the aircraft have
been exhausted.
