Question 9

What are the restrictions in regard to reverse thrust use?

Answer 9

Intentional selection in flight is prohibited
Backing the airplane is prohibited.

Backing the aircraft is prohibited

Question 10

What is the maximum flap extension altitude?

Answer 10

20,000 Feet

Question 11

What are the restrictions in regard to flight control use?

Answer 11

Avoid rapid and large alternating control inputs, especially in combination with large changes in pitch, roll, or yaw, as they may result in structural failure at any speed, including below Va

Question 12

What are the restrictions in regard to VNAV use?

Answer 12

If leveling off within 2000 feet after changing altimeter setting from QNE to QNH, or QNH to QNE, do not use VNAV to execute the level-off if QNH is less than 29.70 IN/1006 hPa; after the level-off is complete VNAV may be re-engaged

Question 13

What are the restrictions in regard to weather radar use?

Answer 13

Avoid use in a hangar

Question 14

What restriction exists in regard to FLCH?

Answer 14

Do not use it on final approach below 1,000 feet AFE

Question 15

Stall recovery procedure…

Answer 15

PF:

Hold control column firmly
Disengage autopilot/auto-throttle
Apply nose down elevator
Roll wings level
Advance thrust as required
Check speed brakes up
After recovery; thrust as needed, reestablish flight path and re-automate

PM:

Monitor altitude and airspeed
Verify all PF actions completed
Call out any trend toward terrain contact

Question 16

Rejected takeoff procedure…

Answer 16

FO:

Verify thrust levers closed/auto-throttle disconnected/max braking applied
Call out “speed brakes up”/”reversers normal” as appropriate
Call out “60 knots”
Communicate with ATC and cabin

Question 17

Ground proximity warning procedure…

Answer 17

PF:

Disengage autopilot/auto-throttle
Aggressively apply max thrust
Roll wings level and pitch to 20 degrees, or PLI limit
Verify speed brakes up
Clear of terrain; pitch down and configure as required

PM:

Verify max thrust set
Verify all PF actions completed
Call out any trend toward terrain contact

Question 18

Traffic RA procedure…

Answer 18

Do not follow a descend RA below 1,000 AGL

PF:

Disengage autopilot/auto-throttle
Follow RA commands
- If in a landing configuration:
Call "flap 20"
Call "gear up" after PM calls "positive rate"

PM:

Notify ATC
- If in a landing configuration:
Call “positive rate” once established in a climb

Question 19

Upset recovery procedure…

Answer 19

PF:

Disengage autopilot/auto-throttle
Push
Roll
Thrust
Stabilize

PM:

Call out attitude, airspeed and altitude

Question 20

Wind shear recovery procedure…

Answer 20

PF:

Automatic flight:
Push TO/GA
Verify speed brakes up
Monitor performance

Manual flight:
Disengage autopilot
Push TO/GA
Disengage auto-throttles
Aggressively apply max thrust
Roll wings level and pitch to 15 degrees or PLI limit
Verify speed brakes up

PM:

Verify max thrust set
Call out any trend toward terrain contact

Question 21

Answer 21

B744: 0.90 Mach
B748/LCF: No limitation.
