Question 1

RNAV Approaches

Answer 1

For RNAV(GNSS) approaches with LNAV/VNAV minima:
‐ Use the appropriate remaining AP/FD in the following cases:
* GPS PRIMARY LOST on one ND
* NAV ACCUR DOWNGRADE on one ND.

‐ Discontinue the approach in the following cases if external visual references are not sufficient to proceed visually:
* GPS PRIMARY LOST on both NDs
* NAV ACCUR DOWNGRADE on both NDs
* XTK > 0.3 NM
* NAV FM/GPS POS DISAGREE

Question 2

Flight Parameters

Answer 2

During the approach, the PM announces:
‐ “SPEED” if the speed decreases below the speed target -5 kt or increases above the speed target +10 kt
‐ “SINK RATE” when the descent rate exceeds 1,000 ft/min
‐ “BANK” when the bank angle becomes greater than 7 °
‐ “PITCH” when pitch attitude becomes lower than -2.5 ° or higher than +10 °
‐ “LOC” or “GLIDE” when either localizer or glide slope deviation is:
* ½ dot LOC
* ½ dot GS.
‐ “CROSS TRACK” when the XTK is greater than 0.1 NM
‐ “V/DEV” when the vertical deviation is greater than ½ dot
‐ “COURSE” when greater than ½ dot or 2.5 ° (VOR) or 5 ° (ADF)
‐ “__ FT HIGH (LOW)” at altitude checkpoints.

Question 3

RVSM

Answer 3

• Two primary altitude measurement systems - 2 x ADR
• One automatic altitude control system - 1 x Autopilot & 1 channel FCU
• One altitude alerting device;
• One operating transponder;
  . Two PFD
  . Two DMC

Question 4

Standard Rate of Descent

Answer 4

5000 ft to 3000 ft - 3000 fpm
3000 ft to 1000 ft - 2000 fpm

Question 5

Maximum Speeds

Answer 5

Class D - 250KIAS or
</= 2500ft AAL and within 4 nm - 200KIAS

Class G & E - 10nm within the vicinity of a CTAF 210KIAS
CCT Area - 200KIAS

Question 6

Icing Conditions

Answer 6

Icing conditions exist when the OAT (on the ground or after takeoff) or the TAT (in flight) is at or below 10°C and visible moisture in any form is present, such as clouds, fog with visibility of 1600m or less, rain, snow, sleet or ice crystals.

Icing conditions also exist when the OAT on the ground and for takeoff is at or below 10°C and operating on ramps, taxiways or runways where surface snow, standing water or slush may be ingested by the engines or freeze on engines, nacelles or engine sensor probes.

Question 7

Turbulence Penetration Speed

Answer 7

250 kts up to FL200
275 kts / 0.76 M above FL200
