Question 4

FCOM LIM 12

Environmental Envelope

Answer 4

Ceiling = 41450 ft

Takeoff = -2000ft to 12500ft

Question 5

FCOM LIM 12

Airport Ops and Wind Limits

Answer 5

Max xwind           = 40kts
Xwind damp/wet = 32kts
Tailwind takeoff   = 15kts
Tailwind landing  = 15kts
Tailwind landing above 11000ft = 10kts
Autoland tailwind = 10kts

Pax door op = 40kts (50kts nose into wind)
Cargo door op = 40kts (50kts nose into wind or doors downwind side)
All doors closed before wind = 60kts

FULL 23-32-10 Full 180kts Land

Question 8

FCOM LIM 13

Gear Speeds

Answer 8

Vle = 250kts/0.55
Vlo = 250kts/0.55
Gravity = 200kts
Ground Speed = 204kts

Question 9

FCOM LIM 13
Windshield Wipers
Cockpit Window
Speed Brake

Answer 9

Windshield Wipers = 230kts
Cockpit Window = 230kts
Speed Brake - No limit

Question 10

FCOM LIM 22

Auto Pilot Function

Answer 10

Min Autoland weight = 123.0
Min A/P height SRS mode = 100ft AGL (5sec after takeoff)
Circling = MDA - 100ft
SI NPA = Applicable minimum
ILS (non CAT II/III) = 160ft AGL
GLS (non autoland) = 160ft AGL
Go-around = 100ft AGL
Other phases = 500ft AGL

Question 11

FCOM LIM 22

Max Wind ILS CAT II/III

Answer 11

Headwind = 35kts
Tailwind     = 10kts
Crosswind = 20kts

Question 12

FCOM LIM 32

Brakes

Answer 12

Max temp for takeoff (brake fans off) = 300°

Question 13

FCOM LIM 49

APU Envelope

Answer 13

Operation and start limit = 41450 ft
Elec only = 41450 ft
Bleed and elec = 22500 ft

Question 14

FCOM LIM 70

Thrust Setting / EGT limits

Answer 14

Takeoff = 975° (5 min)
MCT = 940° (10 min)
Starting = 750° (on ground)
= 975° (in flight)
