LPC/OPC 4 Flashcards
Should you complete an Emer Descent in Mach?
No, change to speed to avoid descending at a constant mach number.
In Elec Emer Config, how are the system pages reviewed?
Hold down the appropriate sys button on the ECP
What does a flex TO do with the position of V1 on the rwy compared with TOGA?
It shifts it further down the runway to keep flex temp low - as such be aware that high flexs will not give huge margin for error on stop
What is worth checking on the STS page after inop systems?
A/c gross weight - over max ldg weight?
With MCT set after losing and eng in the cruise, what will the left hand column of the FMA show?
Nothing, no A/THR so no mode shown
What drill should be followed for a dual eng failure?
QRH drill - one with fuel, other without.
On an overweight ldg, what config is selected on a GA?
1+F
From Conf 3
If balancing fuel in the wings, what document should be referred to?
QRH - Fuel Imbalance Proc
What happens if A/THR instinctive pb is pressed for 15 secs?
A/THR is disconnected for remainder of flight. Only able to be reset on the gnd
Why are reversers not used with a fuel leak?
Risk of fuel entering the eng
When is the discontinued app procedure used?
When on the glideslope but above the FCU alt - if below then use std GA
If a non-prec app there is a flashing Amber V/Dev what has happened?
LS is on
With an engine fire on the ground, how are the extinguishers discharged?
One after the other, no ECAM prompt to wait 30 secs
What happens if A/THR instinctive pb is pressed for 15 secs?
A/THR is disconnected for remainder of flight. Only able to be reset on the gnd
Why are reversers not used with a fuel leak?
Risk of fuel entering the eng
When is the discontinued app procedure used?
When on the glideslope but above the FCU alt - if below then use std GA
What is the best way to recover the a/c above MSA after a GPWS event?
Treat like a GA - use pitch to control speed. Accelerate and clean up
In Mech Back-up, what is the best way to control thrust?
Use manual thrust - A/THR will lead to constant power changes and so will neevr get a/c in trim
On a single eng app, when is A Floor not active?
When flaps are extended
What phase of flight are the unreliable speed memory items designed for?
Climb - will have to adjust for any other stage of flight
Where is a good place to write the required pitch/power settings for an unreliable speed situation?
On the scratchpad of the PF’s MCDU.
How do you turn the BUSS on?
Turn off all ADRs - Only activate BUSS below FL250, above use pitch and power
What gives guidance on whether level flight with the gear down may be poss with 1 eng inop?
QRH 1 Eng Inop Circling table
When must 1+F be the GA flap setting on an overweight ldg?
If table in QRH was used and limited to Flap 3
On TO, what is a good indication of entering normal law?
NAV on FMA
If it is apparent that an evacuation is not req’d after an RTO, what call should be made?
“Attention crew, return to normal operations” - otherwise crew will be anticipating an EVAC
How can you silence an overspeed warning?
With EMER CANC
How can you locate the evac alarm button?
Go the the CAPT/PURS switch then left
If turning into wind with an eng fire, what speed should the turn be initiated?
5kt
If landing distance is tight, what should be done when the landing dist Calc is made?
Both pilots to complete
