AFDS Status annunciation. EG Land 3, Land 2, NO AUTOLAND
For a Cat2 approach , what ASA do we need?
Land 3 or Land 2
In AWOPS you get a failure on APP, IF visual you can…
Continue to land as long as SAC met.
AP fails on on AWOPS approach ..Actions?
G/A
ASA shows land 2 on APP above the alert Height. Options?
Revert to Cat 3A or Cat2 or GA
ASA shows NO AUTOLAND above Alert Height! Options ?
G/A
Speed brake extends above ALERT height, what do you do?
Re stow and continue
ENG FAIL or ENG THRUST above alert height on AWOPS?
Continue Approach
ILS DEVIATION above or below Alert HT?
Go Around!
AP DISCO below ALERT HT?
GO Around!
HUD TOGA, guidance becomes active when within ….deg
45,
IN HUD TOGA , what is the name of the cue?

IF on HUD TOGA you deviate too much, what do you see?
How far off are you?
GEDS. GROUND EXCESSIVE DEVIATION SYMBOL.
23 Feet. Flashing triangle points to CL.
F/D guidance retracts from view at..

25-50FT
Rollout engages at..
Touchdown
Minimum MID point RVR is ?
125 M unless TD is lower (75M)
What is considered relevant for the stop end ?
Are you still above 60 Knots? NOT controlling, only advisory in nature.
Can you manually land from LTS or Cat 2?
No!
What minima do you need to Autoland on a runway?
LVO minima , ie LTS CAT 1 and below
Visual Approach definition?
An approach when either all or part of an instrument approach is NOT completed and the approach is executed with visual reference to the terrain.
LTS and OTS Philosophy?
Use onboard equipment to mitigate having less than the full infrastructure of ground available. Only A/LAND. Higher chance of GA!
You need a T/O alternate when?
You cant land back at the aerodrome of departure.
Source of T/O minima?
LIDO AOI pages
What is the point of Take off minima?
To keep the aircraft straight on the runway during TO.
Take off Ban , what is it?
RVR assessed by Captain is below limits when lined up.
TD below limits
MID below limits
STOP END below limits for ops below 200M
Runway indistinguishable from the surrounds.

500M
CAT 1 LTS , CAT 2, CAT 2 OTS visual requirement?
3 Consecutive lights , must include a lateral element.
On a LIDO APP chart, what does an R or V besides the visibility mean?
Cant be converted.
Can 787 land with limit ACFT MAX 65/7
yes, only 380 cant
Can FO land a Cat 1 LTS ?
NO
Visual APP visibility needed?
5KM , 800M if established on the Extended centre line and visual with the runway.
Visual flight in the USA , miles required?
3
USA do you have to circle if only circling minima are provided?
If runway in sight and you can land and are cleared to land on that runway. You can land without circling.
minimum runway lights required at night?
Runway edge and end lights
