Miscellaneous

Question 1

When executing a NP approach using LNAV/VNAV minimums, what does it mean when you see NO DA mins and just MDA mins:

Answer 1

MDA (Must Do Addition): You must apply a DDA (+50 ft) to the MDA minimums

Question 2

What should you do if you see a RED line through your LOC and GS when you are cleared for approach and arm the APP mode:

What caused this to occur:

Answer 2

• Go to NAV SOURCE LOC and select NAV or APP mode as per your clearance
• On Vectors when FMS HDG was selected in the FMC, NAV was not selected on the FCP

Question 3

If departing an airport on an LNAV SID can you takeoff in LHDG / NAV ARMED mode:

Answer 3

NO, You must Takeoff in HDG / NAV ARMED mode. NAV will not automatically capture LHDG mode until INTERCEPT, NAV or DTO is selected.

Question 4

What is TERMINAL SENSITIVITY:

Answer 4

Refers to the differences in the way LNAV/VNAV and LOC/GS navigate as they get nearer to the fix or station.
LOC/GS sensitivity gets more sensitive as it gets closer to the station ( > ), LVAV/VNAV does not ( = )

Question 5

If there is no DA on an approach (or you intend to circle to land), how must you manipulate the ASEL:

Answer 5

When cleared for the approach and ALT is captured preselect 100 feet above the nearest to your MDA. When the runway or airport is in sight and the decision is made to continue, or ALT is captured at MDA reset ASEL to the MA altitude

Question 6

Can you select ALT HOLD after the LOC/GS has captured on an ILS approach:

Answer 6

NO, you would have to select NAV to disengage the GS and use VS to level OFF initially and then you could select ALT HOLD

Question 7

Takeoff weight is limited by:

Answer 7

• Structural GW
• Runway length
• Obstacle Clearance
• Brake Energy

Question 8

What is meant by FACTORED Vs UN-FACTORED on the Landing Performance Charts in the AFM:

Answer 8

• Factored considers a 1.67 dispatch performance factor for FAR 135 ops
• Us test pilots (91 legal, but unwise)

Question 9

CFIT maneuver:

Answer 9

Simultaneously:
AP Disengage
GA Thrust
APR ON
A/B's Down
25 degrees ANU initially

Question 10

WINDSHEAR:

Answer 10

Simultaneously:
AP Disengage
GA Thrust
APR ON
A/B's Dowm
17 degrees ANU initially
Maintain configuration until clear of threat

Question 11

How should you advise ATC if you are complying with a Resolution Advisory (RA):

Answer 11

• N_ _ _ _ _ Complying with a Resolution Advisory

- N_ _ _ _ _ Clear of Conflict, returning to assigned altitude

Question 12

Where would you find the Best Holding Speed Chart:

What is that speed equivalent to:

Answer 12

Last page in the Operation Planning Manual

Max Endurance Airspeed (Best L/D)

Question 13

If an ANTI-SKID light illuminates after landing:

Answer 13

Release Brakes, if light goes OUT reapply brakes, if light does not go OUT, turn ANTI-SKID OFF and carefully re-ally brakes

Note: Landing distance will be increased by at least 50%
