Memory Items

Question 1

What are the memory items associated with the following EGPWS alerts?
– ″PULL UP″
– ″TERRAIN TERRAIN PULL UP″
–″TERRAIN AHEAD PULL UP″
– ″OBSTACLE AHEAD PULL UP″

Answer 1

Announce: “PULL UP - TOGA” and simultaneously:
AP- OFF
PITCH- PULL UP (to full back stick)
THRUST LEVERS- TOGA
SPEED BRAKE LEVER- CHECK RETRACTED
BANK- WINGS LEVEL or ADJUST
When flight path is safe and the warning stops:
- Reduce Pitch and accelerate.
When speed is above VLS, and V/S is positive:
- Clean up aircraft, as required.

Question 2

“TERRAIN AHEAD PULL UP” followed by “AVOID TERRAIN”

Answer 2

Perform the “PULL UP” maneuver, before the turn towards the safe direction, or roll wings level if already established in a turn.

Question 3

What are the memory items associated with “TERRAIN TERRAIN” and “TOO LOW TERRAIN” EGPWS alerts?

Answer 3

• During night or IMC apply the TAWS/EGPWS Warning procedure

- During daylight and VMC with terrain and obstacles clearly in sight – ADJUST Flight path.

Question 4

What are the memory items associated with ″TERRAIN AHEAD″ and ″OBSTACLE AHEAD″ EGPWS alerts?

Answer 4

• During night or IMC apply the TAWS/EGPWS Warning procedure

- During daylight and VMC with terrain and obstacles clearly in sight – ADJUST Flight path.

Question 5

On A320/330/340 – What are the memory items associated with “SINK RATE” or “GLIDE SLOPE” EGPWS/TAWS alert?

Answer 5

• Above 1000 ft AAL: ADJUST FLIGHT PATH
• Below 1000 ft AAL: CONSIDER GO-AROUND
  (EY Stabilization Approach criterion stipulates that sink rate must not exceed 1000 fpm (1200 fpm for CAT D aircraft) below 1000 ft RA, except for specific steep approach profiles that have been approved and briefed for).

Question 6

What is the memory items associated with “DON’T SINK” EGPWS alert?

Answer 6

Adjust the flight path.

Question 7

What are the memory items associated with “TOO LOW GEAR” and “TOO LOW FLAPS” EGPWS alerts?

Answer 7

Perform a go-around

Question 8

What are the memory items associated with a Predictive Wind shear alert WINDSHEAR AHEAD RED warning during Take-off phase?

Answer 8

TAKEOFF
o Before Takeoff – Delay or select the most favorable runway
o During Takeoff Run – Reject Take Off (inhibited between 100kts and 50ft)
o When Airborne – Apply TOGA/AP if engaged – Keep ON/follow SRS.
It’s permitted to change Slats/flaps configuration, provided the A/C does not enter windshear.

Question 9

On A320/330/340 – What are the memory items associated with a Predictive Windshear alert GO AROUND, WINDSHEAR AHEAD warning during Approach?

Answer 9

1. Perform GO AROUND
   It’s permitted to change Slats/flaps configuration, provided the A/C does not enter windshear.
2. AP keep ON if engaged

Question 10

What are the memory items associated with a Predictive Wind shear alert MONITOR RADAR DISPLAY (W/S AHEAD AMBER)?

Answer 10

1. BEFORE TAKEOFF
   o Delay take-off, and then apply precautionary procedures specified in QRH/ PRO-SUP chapter.
2. DURING APPROACH
   o Delay landing or divert, then apply precautionary procedures specified in QRH/PRO-SUP chapter.

Question 11

What are the memory items associated with a Reactive Wind shear alert (WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR) warning or a pilot detected windshear encounter?

Answer 11

1. TAKEOFF
   o Before V1 – RTO if significant sped variations occur below V1 and if sufficient runway remains
   o After V1 – Announce: “WINDSHEAR TOGA” and:
    TOGA / ROTATE at VR / SRS follow
2. AIRBORNE: Initial climb or landing
   - Announce: “WINDSHEAR TOGA” and:
    TOGA / AP (keep if engaged) / SRS follow
   DO NOT CHANGE CONFIG (FLAPS/SLATS/GEAR)
   If necessary crew may apply full back stick

Question 12

What are the memory items associated with an Unreliable Airspeed Indication? (320/330/340)

Answer 12

Announce: “UNRELIABLE SPEED” and then, if safe conduct of flight is impacted:
AP, F/Ds, A/THR - OFF.
PITCH/THRUST - 15˚/TOGA (12.5˚/TOGA for 340) if Below THR RED ALT
- 10˚/CLB, if Above THR RED ALT and below FL100
- 05˚/CLB, if Above THR RED ALT and Above FL100
FLAPS - Maintain current configuration
- Flaps (if CONF FULL) – Select CONF 3
SPEED BRAKES - Check Retracted
LANDING GEAR - Up
When at, or above MSA, Level off for troubleshooting

Question 13

What are the memory items associated with Loss of Braking

Answer 13

If no braking available:
 REV – MAX
 BRAKE PEDALS – RELEASE
 A/SKID & N/W STRG – OFF (A320 & A330)
 BRAKE PEDALS – PRESS
 MAX BRK PR – 1000 PSI
