LVP Flashcards
Below what altitude is the Autoland Red Light active?
Below 200 feet RA.
What are the 7 triggers for the Autoland Red Light?
- Loss of both APs below 200 feet RA.
- Loss of LOC above 15 feet.
- Loss of GS above 100 feet.
- Deviation from LOC or GS.
- RA discrepancy greater than 15 feet.
- Long flare detected by FMGS.
- Early or untimely flare detected by FMGS.
At what altitude do landing inhibits become active?
At 800 feet RA.
At what altitude does FMGC data lock occur?
At 700 feet RA.
By what altitude must the FMA display LAND, and what checks must CM1 perform?
- 350’ RA
- “Land” and ILS course check
Below alert height, what failures are relevant?
The ones that will trigger red autoland light.
At what altitude must we see ‘FLARE’ on the FMA in an autoland?
At 40 feet RA.
At what altitude must we see the thrust idle command on the FMA in an autoland?
At 30 feet RA.
At what altitude must we see ‘ROLLOUT’ on the FMA in an autoland?
At 10 feet RA.
What must be completed by 1000ft RA on an autoland to avoid GA (5)?
- ECAM or QRH procedure must be complete.
- Required equipment for CAT 2 or 3 and OPS checked.
- Approach landing capability checked.
- RVR checked.
- DH adjusted.
What happens in the event of a master caution or downgrade during an autoland?
If it happens below 1000ft RA and the alert height, a go-around must be initiated unless visual references are sufficient.
What are the minimas for a CAT I approach?
200’ AAL, 550m RVR
What are the minimas for a CAT II approach?
100ft RA and 300m RVR.
What are the minimas for an SA CAT II approach?
100ft RA, and 350m RVR.
What are the minimas for a CAT III with DH approach?
50ft RA, and 200m RVR.
What are the minimas for a CAT III without DH approach?
No DH, and 75m RVR.
What are the required visual references for a CAT I approach (10)?
Elements of the approach light system, thresholds, threshold markings, threshold lights, threshold identification lights, visual glideslope indicator, touchdown zone or touchdown zone markings, touchdown zone lights, runway edge lights.
What are the required visual references for a CAT II or SA CAT II approach?
Three consecutive lights and a lateral element.
What are the required visual references for a CAT III with DH approach?
- Three consecutive lights (CAT 3 SINGLE displayed).
- One centerline light (CAT 3 DUAL displayed).
What are the required visual references for a CAT III NO DH approach?
None.
How to determine the minimas for any approach category?
On the LIDO approach plate or the absolute minima if not stated on the LIDO approach plate.
What is the color code for runway centerline lights (RCLL)?
White from threshold to the last 900m.
White and red from the last 900m to the last 300m.
Red for the final 300m.
How are the rapid exit taxiway indicator lights on the runway?
Three yellow lights 300m before.
Two yellow lights 200m before.
One yellow light 100m before.
