Maneuvers Flashcards
Simulator trick for crosswind takeoff/landing.
Use significantly more downward elevator while on runway than in the real aircraft. Slam it down in the touchdown zone for landing and apply max braking. All callouts and actions for these maneuvers have no procedural differences than any other takeoff or landing.
A reduced visibility takeoff will happen in the MV. Where can you find the RVR requirements for lower than standard takeoff minimums?
OpsSpec C078. (FAR/FOM Cross Reference).
No procedural difference from regular takeoff.
Where can you find the approach minima for a CAT II ILS approach?
Quick Reference Library-Approach Briefing Guides
On a CAT II, who looks inside and who looks outside? When?
At the “APPROACHING MINIMUMS” callout, the Captain goes eyes outside. The FO goes eyes inside.
When does APPR 2 need to be displayed on the FMA on a CAT II?
No lower than 800 RA. If inside 800RA and APPR 1 still shown, go missed.
Autopilot requirements for CAT II
Must be engaged and left on until minimums, or runway in sight.
Name the most commonly forgotten action during a CAT II approach.
Forgetting to obtain STALL PROT ICE SPEEDS/CAT II SPEEDS. Standard speeds not authorized for CAT II.
Minimum and maximum Vap speed for a visual approach, non precision, CAT 1:
Minimum: Vap = Vref + 5
Maximum: Vap = Vref + 20
Minimum and Maximum Vap speed for a CAT II approach and/or ice accumulation:
Minimum: Vap = Vref
Maximum: Vap = Vref + 20
CAT II flap setting
Always flaps 5.
How do you set minimums for a CAT II approach?
Switch to RA, then set the RA to published RA rounded up to nearest 5’ increment.
CAT II approach callouts
(Highlights)
(Basic aircraft configuration omitted)
“FO” (CA)
“Course alive” (roger)
“Glide path alive” (roger)
“Final approach fix altitude checked”
(Set missed approach altitude)
“_____set”
“1,000, stabilized, cleared to land”
(roger)
“Approaching minimums” *automated
{FO inside, CA outside}
“Minimums” *automated but ok to say as well
(Missed approach, flaps 2)
Or
(Runway in sight, landing)
Normal go around/ missed approach callouts
“PF”
PM
“go around flaps ___” or “missed approach flaps ___”
(Flaps____)
(Positive rate)
“Gear up”
(Gear up)
“Climb sequence after takeoff checklist”
(After takeoff checklist complete)
Takeoff Windshear escape maneuver PF
- MAX thrust/AP off
- Follow flight director (20° or PLI if no guidance)
- No configuration changes
- Once PM says “windshear warning gone” reduce to climb thrust.
- call for HDG, FLCH, AP, AT.
- Climb sequence after takeoff checklist
Landing Windshear escape maneuver PF
- If rapidly changing airspeed, or windshear caution present before a warning, execute a normal go around “go around flaps 2”.
- Once windshear warning hits:
- MAX thrust/AP off/Press TOGA
- Follow FD (20° or PLI if no guidance)
- No configuration changes
- PM “windshear warning gone” reduce to climb thrust.
- call for HDG, FLCH, AP, AT.
- Climb sequence after takeoff checklist
Any windshear maneuver callouts PM
Below 1,000’ “CLIMBING ____feet” or “DESCENDING _____ feet”
Above 1,000’ “CLIMBING.”
Or “DESCENDING.”
Once windshear warning gone say “WINDSHEAR WARNING GONE”.
Re-engage the modes for PF and complete climb sequence when called for.
Do you press TOGA for an ILS PRM breakout?
NO.
PRM breakout procedure PF
- Disconnect AP
- CALL: Heading, FLCH (or vertical speed)
- Fly assigned heading and climb or descend to assigned altitude.
- Once clear and established, re-engage automation.
- Gear up
- Missed approach flaps 2
- Climb sequence after takeoff checklist
PRM breakout procedure PM
- Respond to ATC
- Select heading
- Deselect APP if armed
- Set appropriate speed if needed
- Set altitude
- FLCH (Or whatever mode called for)
- Configure plane as called for
