Departure wx below applicable minimum

Question 2

What are the minima for a TO alternate?

Answer 2

CAT1

Question 3

You are assigned to an aerodrome with no met info avbl can you depart?

Answer 3

Yes but you need 2 destination alternates on the FPL and valid meteo

Question 4

Eng fail in cruise how many strategies did you have on your last jet?

Answer 4

Standard (no time no obstacle)
Obstacle (ensure margin)
Fixed Speed (ETOPS)

Question 5

What is minimum legal amount of fuel you need to land with?

Answer 5

Final reserve fuel is the minimum fuel required to fly for 30 minutes at 1,500 feet above the alternate aerodrome or, if an alternate is not required, at the destination aerodrome at holding speed in ISA conditions)

Question 6

Contingency fuel is normally 5%. Under which conditions can it be reduced to 3%?

Answer 6

If operators are approved to use enroute Alternates ERA

Question 7

What is lowest FL in RVSM?

Answer 7

FL290

Question 8

What is JetA1 freezing point?

Answer 8

-47

Question 9

What is ETOPS and what it is purpose?

Answer 9

It is a certification that permits twin engine aircraft to fly routes which may, at the time, be 60 minutes flying time from the nearest airport that is suitable for an emergency landing
Save fuel and time

Question 10

In cold wx ops why do you need to make an alt correction on the altimeter?

Answer 10

When temperature isLESSthan ISA an aircraft will beLOWERthan the altimeter reading.

Question 11

What was the policy in your previous airline concerning altimeter corrections

Answer 11

No need when beingvectoredby radar.

Question 12

Which statement is correct?

ATIS wind reported by twr are magnetic and winds aloft are true?

Answer 12

Winds shown on a METAR, TAF, winds aloft table, or surface analysis chart are represented in true headings, whereas winds represented through an ATIS, AWOS/ASOS, or PIREP are in magnetic headings. A useful adage is that “If you read it, it must be true. If you hear it, it’s magnetic.”

Question 13

Missed approach procedures are based on a min gradient at

Answer 13

2,5

Question 14

In case that no higher gradient is promulgated the procedure design gradient for an SID is

Answer 14

3,3

Question 15

TAF are normally issued

Answer 15

Every 3hrs for TAF valid less than 12hrs 6hrs TAF with higher period of validity

Question 16

CAVOK - what condition would lead to replacement Sky clear?

Answer 16

FEW SCT BKN OVC

Question 17

How many flight parameters deviation calls do you know?

Answer 17

"Speed,Speed"
"Sinkrate!Sinkrate!"
"Bank angle, Bank angle"
LOC
GS
Pitch
X Track
VDEV

Question 18

After landing eng operated near idle why?

Answer 18

Cooldown to prevent thermal shock (Thermal stabilization)

Question 19

Why does Airbus documentation recommend brake fans on after ldg but avoid when parked?

Answer 19

Thermal equalization and stabilization and thus avoid oxidation / environmental reason + health carbon dust

Question 20

ECAM has three failure levels,level 1 level 2 and level 3 - there is another one for anomalies in progress generated by the FWC which one?

Answer 20

BLUE (CYAN): Actions to be carried out or limitations
PURPLE (MAGENTA): Special messages (i.e. inhibition messages)
Note: pulsing green or amber indications are approaching limits

Question 21

What factors can influence a successful RTO?

Answer 21

Tyre damage
Worn brakes
Wrong gross weight
Runway friction

Question 22

During cruise the ac encounters turbulence the autopilot disconnects and the ac enters a deep dive - which is the correct order of recovery actions?

Answer 22

Wings Level Reduce THR adjust AC att

Question 23

Green dot for eng fail is lower than for all engines operative - why is this?

Answer 23

Highest climb gradient/best lift-to-drag ratio speed.

Question 24

Window cracked - what is the best course of action?

Answer 24

Descent FL230

Cabin px mode sel MAN - Manual px ctrl - when starting final descent AUTO

Question 25

The force on the THS in flight is

Answer 25

Nose down in cruise with aft CG

Question 26

The wx radar does not detect small droplets eg clouds ir fog

Answer 26

Correct

Question 27

Comm fail for 30min - which phase of alerting is applied by ATC?

Answer 27

Alerfa

Question 28

What do you know about gross net flight path related to eng fail in cruise?

Answer 28

The “gross flight path” is nothing more than what the airplane will do with an engine failed if flown according to the airplane flight manual.
The blue line, the “net flight path” is minus 0,8%
NET GRADIENT = GROSS GRADIENT – GRADIENT PENALTY

Net flight path is more restrictive.

Question 29

Which is the correct order for nose high attitude recovery

Answer 29

Adjust ac att add thr wings lvl

Question 30

Holding. Inbnd qdm 180 righthand your inbd qdm is 350.

Answer 30

Teardrop
