Normal Ops Flashcards
What is the minimum battery voltage for take-off?
The minimum batteries voltage allowed for takeoff is 24 VDC.
Replace battery if voltage is less than 22 VDC. If battery voltage is between 22 VDC and 24 VDC, recharge (in airplane) or replace the battery and rerun the battery test.
How long must you motor an engine if fuel has been introduced during engine start?
30 seconds. On subsequent start, it is acceptable to have flames out the tailpipe for a few seconds due to residual fuel.
How long must you wait until restarting an engine?
Before attempting ground restarts, wait 30 seconds after NG reaches zero (0) to enable a successful test of the NG
independent overspeed protection circuit.
What is the minimum bleed air pressure for starting engines?
Minimum bleed air pressure for sustaining a start is 22 PSI. A momentary drop below 22 PSI when the starter valve
opens is acceptable
How long must you wait if pusher test fails to try again?
5 minutes
When should you turn Engine AI to ON?
Icing conditions may exist when the total air temperature is 10°C or less and visible moisture is present in any form (clouds, fog with visibility of 1 mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, or ice crystals). In these conditions, turn ON engine anti-ice
If engine anti-ice is required and pressure altitude is greater than 3,000 feet, how long should you run the engines for with Engine anti ice on?
Consider operating with engine anti-ice ON
for a minimum of 3 minutes to stabilize engine temperatures before applying takeoff power, in order to reduce the possibility of an ENG 1 (2, 3, or 4) MGT HI (W) ACAWS event when takeoff power is applied.
On a normal takeoff, the takeoff data assumes that you will rotate at what rate?
3 degrees a second.
To avoid side slip control difficulties during an adjusted maximum effort climb, what should you limit your angle of bank to?
To avoid side slip control difficulties during an adjusted maximum effort climb, limit angle of bank to 20 degrees until airspeed is above 120 knots.
What is the procedure for a max effort take off after brake release?
After brake release, accelerate to rotation speed and execute a pitch up to 7 degrees pitch attitude (approximately 5 degrees per second rotation rate). When the airplane is airborne, as confirmed by the copilot, the pilot must immediately resume the 5 degrees per
second pitch rate to the target pitch attitude.
What is the flap retraction schedule for a normal climbout?
<100,000 lb
Raise flaps passing FUSS, (135 KIAS)
100,000 to 140,000 lb
Begin flaps retraction at 135 KIAS and
end at FUSS, (VOBS +25)
>140,000 lb Raise flaps in 10% increments for each 5 kt increase in airspeed, beginning at Minimum Flaps Retraction Speed (V OBS+5) and ending at FUSS (VOBS +25)
How do you calculate FUSS on a max effort climb?
VOBS+45
What equipment must be operational before entering RVSM airspace?
CADC 1 CADC 2 SPTU 1 SPTU 2 Pilot PFD Copilot PFD One autopilot, including altitude hold Altitude alert system IFF, including Mode C
What are the RVSM altitude requirements?
With altitude hold engaged, the autopilot must maintain airplane altitude within ±65 feet of the assigned RVSM flight level during normal cruise (steady, level flight in non-turbulent conditions). The maximum difference between pilot and copilot flight level cannot exceed 200 feet.
How is a penetration descent made?
A penetration descent is made in two segments. The first from altitude down to 20,000 feet at speeds for maximum lift over drag with power levers at FLT IDLE and landing gear and flaps retracted. The second segment is from 20,000 feet to sea level at a constant 250 KIAS.
