Limits

Question 1

Max operating pressure altitude

Answer 1

41,000 feet

Question 2

Max takeoff/landing tailwind component

Answer 2

15 knots

Question 3

Recommended Severe Turbulence Penetration Speed:

Cruise

Answer 3

Turb N1 setting from VNAV Cruise Page

Question 4

Recommended Severe Turbulence Penetration Speed:

Climb and Descent

Answer 4

280 kts / .76 Mach

• Note: If severe turbulence is encountered at altitudes below 15,000 ft and the airplane’s gross weight is less than the maximum landing weight, the airplane may be slowed to 250 knots in the clean configuration.

Question 5

Takeoff Crosswind Component (knots) split scimitar winglet:

Dry Runway (RCC 6)

Answer 5

33 knots

• Assumes an engine failure RTO

Question 6

Takeoff Crosswind Component (knots) split scimitar winglet:

Wet Runway (RCC 5, 1/8” less RW containtment of water, snow, slush)

Answer 6

25 knots

• Assumes an engine failure RTO

Question 7

Landing Crosswind Component (knots) split scimitar winglet:

Dry Runway

Answer 7

37 knots

Question 8

Landing Crosswind Component (knots) split scimitar winglet:

Wet Runway (RCC 5, 1/8” less RW containtment of water, snow, slush)

Answer 8

37 knots

• Reduce landing crosswind guidelines by 5 knots on wet or contaminated runways when asymmetric reverse thrust is used

Question 9

Icing conditions exist on the ground and for takeoff when:

Answer 9

OAT 10°C or below

&

• visible moisture in any forms present (I.e. Clouds, fog with visibility of 1 mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, or ice crystals) OR
• while operating on ramps,taxiways, or runways where snow, standing water or slush may be ingested by the engines or freeze on the engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes.

Question 10

Icing conditions exist in flight when:

Answer 10

Total Air Temp is 10°C or below

&

• visible moisture in any form is present ( i e clouds, fog with visibility of 1 mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, or ice crystals)

Question 11

Answer 14

10 knots

————————————-
-900 Flaps 30:

Field elevation 4000 ft or less: 10 kts

Field elevation 4001-6000 ft: 5 kts
