MT 1 Flashcards
Where would you find the unreliable airspeed procedure?
QRH Non-Annunciated, Yellow, “UNRELIABLE AIRSPEED”
What is the initial target pitch for unreliable airspeed?
On takeoff: 10-15 degrees
In level flight: 2-5 degrees
What is an upset?
- Pitch: Greater than 25 degrees nose up or 10 degrees nose down.
- Bank: Greater than 45 degrees.
- Speed: Inappropriate for conditions.
Procedure for any upset
- ) Recognize and confirm. (Both pilots say “UPSET”)
- ) Disconnect: PF disconnects AP and AT
- ) Push: PF reduces AOA
- ) Roll: PF rolls shortest direction to wings level
- ) Thrust: Thrust and speedbrakes as needed (PM calls out “GREEN DOT” when passing it)
- ) Stabilize: Establish desired flight path and configuration
Bounced landing procedure
- ) After the bounce, immediately advance thrust levers to TOGA and press TOGA button.
- ) Say “GO-AROUND”
- ) WAIT for airspeed to increase above Vref
- ) Say “Flaps__”
- ) Everything normal go around callouts/actions from there
Pitch Trim is running away, what do you do?
A/P disconnect button- press and hold
Pitch trim system 1 and 2 cutout buttons- press in
Once airplane is under control, PF calls QRC Pitch trim runaway
After QRC, PM runs QRH
You need to perform an emergency descent; how would you accomplish this?
Call for the emergency descent QRC and it will guide you through each step. CA should fly the emergency descent.
After an engine failure in cruise, what must be active in order to initiate driftdown mode?
- ) VNAV must be active (why you don’t want to cruise in green ALT)
- ) FMS speeds must be active
- ) Autothrottle engaged
Once driftdown mode becomes active after an engine failure in cruise, what does it do?
- ) DRIFT DOWN appears on FMA
- ) DD becomes active thrust mode
- ) CON thrust is automatically commanded
- ) Aircraft maintains altitude until speed decays to green dot, then begins gradual descent at green dot
- ) Once reaching selected altitude, EO DRIFT DOWN mode is automatically cancelled
Assuming VNAV and autothrottles are engaged allowing for EO DRIFT DOWN mode to engage successfully, what practically is your only requirement?
- ) You need to look at the EO RANGE page on the MCDU (should display automatically, but can be found in PERF 2/2), and select CONFIRM EO (LSK 5R).
- ) On that same EO RANGE page, look at MAX ALT (LSK 1L) and bug that altitude in the altitude selector.
What if EO DRIFTDOWN mode fails and does not work, but you experienced an engine failure in cruise? How would you manually driftdown?
- ) Select TOGA thrust and make sure you are in CON thrust mode
- ) AT OFF
- ) Manually bug green dot
- ) Set altitude selector to MAX ALT as listed on EO RANGE page
- ) GREEN FLCH
If you disconnect the elevator or ailerons via the handle during a jammed condition, can you ever reset it?
No. TAKE IT SLOW AND DO NOT DISCONNECT WRONG HANDLE
If you really have no reliable airspeed indicators, you can get help via groundspeed, IRS pitch, and GPS altitude. Where can you locate these?
Groundspeed: PFD
GPS Altitude: NAV-POS SENSORS-GPS
IRS Pitch: NAV-POS SENSORS-IRS
EGPWS CFIT Escape Maneuver PF:
- ) Disconnect Autopilot
- ) MAX thrust and pitch 20 degrees (respecting PLI)
- ) Maintain configuration
- ) Climb to MSA or MORA
- ) Once clear, level off, engage autopilot, and clean up the airplane
EGPWS CFIT Escape Maneuver PM:
- ) Verify appropriate actions are being performed by the PF
- ) Communicate with ATC
- ) Turn on FSTN BELTS sign
- ) Call out RA indications
- ) Read MFD and offer guidance to PF, advise when you are clear and above MSA
