Security Inspection
What are the limitations for pallets taller than 86 inches?
Netted pallets taller than 86 inches loaded under the upper deck must have twelve additional
straps applied (six straps longitudinally and six straps laterally). Factory freighter aircraft (i.e. nose

be accessible to the crew in flight. Some materials are exempt and can be loaded in nonaccessible
locations (ref. GOM).

Engine Oil temperature must be above 50 degrees C before takeoff
What are the guidelines for delayed engine start?
- Less than approximately 726,000 lb, start engines 4, 1, and 2.
- Less than approximately 660,000 lb, start engines 4 and 1.

What are the GE engine warm up recommendations?
GE Engines:
- If the engines were shut down for more than 6 hours, to increase EGT margins for takeoff, GE recommends (not a limitation) a minimum warm-up time of 10 minutes prior to applying takeoff thrust.
- If the engines have been shut down for 6 hours or less, allow engines to warm up a minimum of 4 minutes from last engine start prior to applying takeoff thrust.
What are the PW engine warm up recommendations?
P&W Engines:
There is no specified minimum warm up. However, the Oil Temperature must be at or above 50° C before applying
takeoff thrust.
When must you use a standing takeoff?
contaminated runway
Nose wheel tiller should not be used above what speed?
20 kts
