Question 1

RNP LNAV procedure

Answer 1

2 nm prior to FAF -
set MDA
Gear down
Flap 15

0.5 nm to FAF -
VS 1000fpm
Landing flap
300’ above MDA set MAP ALT

Question 2

RNP LNAV/VNAV procedure

Answer 2

2nm FAF -
Set DA
Gear down
Flap 15

Just prior to FAF -
Landing flap
Landing checklist

300’ below MAP altitude set missed approach altitude.

Question 3

LNAV only requirements

Answer 3

0.3nm RNP (applicable from FAF onwards)

VDA (MDA + 50’)

PM - VSD + LEGS PG selected by IAF

LNAV SHOULD BE ENGAGED BY IAF, SHALL BE ENGAGED BY FAF

DTO CLEARANCES TO AN IF CAN BE ACCEPTED PROVIDED TRACK CHANGE IS LESS THAN 45 DEGREES

Question 4

LNAV / VNAV

Answer 4

same requirements as LNAV approach

Except :

Set DA to nearest 100’

300’ below MAP ALT SET MAP ALT

VRNP MUST BE 125’

PAST FAF MAP CONDUCTED IF VERT DEVIATION ALERT

IF USING QFE VNAV NOT AVAILABLE

Question 5

RNP AR

Answer 5

Same as LNAV/VNAV

DTO 45 degree limit no longer an issue

PM - VSD + PROG PG ? + WX/TERR BY IAF

PF - TERR BY IAF

MAP MUST BE CONDUCTED IF PAST IAF HAVE DUAL RA FAILURE

Question 6

RNP AR PROP differences to ICAO

Answer 6

• Higher bank angles and speed restrictions
• Low level off altitudes on final app
• optimised for certain aircraft and operators
• use aerodrome specific wind models

VA use GE charts

LVO - min take off visibility ?

Answer 7

125m RVR.

below 550RVR left seat only

Answer 9

SA CAT I
CAT II
AUTOLAND

Question 10

853-906 + MAX

FAIL OPERATIONAL AUTOPILOT APP CAPABILITY

Answer 10

SA CAT I
CAT II
SA CAT II
CAT IIIA
CAT IIIB
AUTOLAND

Question 11

CAT II OPERATIONS MINIMA

Answer 11

100’ DH

RVR - TDZ 300m MID 125m END 75m

Question 12

CAT IIIA MINIMA

Answer 12

50’ DH
RVR - TDZ 175m MID 125m END 75m

Question 13

CAT IIIB MINIMA

Answer 13

NO DH
RVR - TDZ 75m MID 75m END 75m

Question 14

Visual references at DH

CAT II & CAT III

Answer 14

CAT III -
3 consecutive longitudinally aligned lights (centreline, TDZ lights or runway lights)

CAT II -
3 consecutive as CATIII
AND
lateral element of lighting (approach light cross bar, landing threshold lights or barrette of TDZ lighting)

Question 15

RUNWAY LIGHTING

Answer 15

TDZ LIGHTS EXTEND 900m (required for CAT II/III

Last 900m CL alternate red white last 300m all red.

Edge lights yellow last 600m remaining.

HIALS also mandatory for CAT II & IIIA operations. Not reqd for CAT IIIB

Question 16

When are ILS critical areas not protected ?

Answer 16

Cloud ceiling greater than 600’ or the vis is greater than 2000m

Question 17

FO’s can not be PF below CAT 1 approach

Answer 17

As above

Question 18

When are the use of landing lights not recommend?

Answer 18

CAT III ILS CONDITIONS ultimately at captains discretion

Question 19

Low vis taxi speed?

Answer 19

10 knots

Question 20

FAIL PASSIVE AP FAILURE AT OR BELOW DH RVR _< 300m

Answer 20

A manual MAP must be conducted

Question 21

Failure of AP above alert height what must be done ?

Answer 21

Revert to CAT I approach procedures

Question 22

FAILURES ABOVE 1000’ AFE for LVO

Answer 22

Revert to higher DH/DA if necessary
Engage or reengage AP(s) prior to 1000’ AFE or conduct MAP

If only one AP engaged by 1000’AFE revert to higher minima for the wx conditions

Question 23

NARROW RUNWAY OPS -

TO & LDG XWIND limits

Answer 23

25 knots for all wet and dry

• FO with more than 300hrs on type can operate on 30m RWY provided xwind is less than 10kts*

Question 24

RNP AR -

Limitation with DTO clearances to a RF (Radius to Fix) ?

Answer 24

You cannot accept a DTO RT point. You can only except a DTO clearance to the point prior to

Question 25

RNP AR -
Choice of approach minima ?

Answer 25

Choose the highest possible minima for the least strain on RNP EQUIPMENT for example.

WX conditions meet 0.3 RNP so select that rather than going for 0.1 RNP

Question 26

When do you know you have approach logic?
And what action coincides with this ?

Answer 26

When you get VRNP scale come up and you have magenta ANP/Deviation display.

When you have this and are 300’ below MAP altitude you can set MAP altitude

Question 27

3 step process setting up FMC for circling approach

Answer 27

1. Bring RX06(2NM) TO TOP
2. SET INTERCEPT CRS
3. BRING RW06 BELOW RX06

EXECUTE

• Ensure CRZ ALT is changed to 1500’ for correct Chinese glideslope guidance *

Question 28

Idea for circling in OPC -

Answer 28

Once visual because company minimums are 1500’ & 8km vis request a visual approach so if unstable you can conduct visual MAP

MAP procedure from visual approach in CTA. Climb runway heading await instructions from ATC.

You have 2 options
You have 4 options etc
Then read each option,
Select one and read the instructions for the one necessary.

Question 32

Use DATA mode on EFIS control Panel it will show ALTITUDES at fixes on IAP. Extremely handy for height checks.

Eg: @ the FAF GS check on ILS it will be infront of you.
