OMA Flashcards
What is the minimum RVR for takeoff?
OMA 8.1. 125m
What is the minimum RVR for each category of ILS approach?
OMA 8.1. CAT1 550m, CAT 2 300m, CAT 3A 200m, CAT3B 75m
What is the minimum DH for each category of ILS approach?
OMA 8.1. CAT1 200’, CAT2 100’, CAT 3A <100’, CAT 3B <50’ or no DH
Is a roll-out guidance system required for all category of ILS approach?
No, just CAT3B in Fail Operational form.
When taking off behind an A380/heavy aircraft from the same position, what separation should you allow?
OMA8.3 3 minutes / 2 minutes
When on approach, what separation should be applied behind an A380/heavy aircraft in front?
OMA 8.3 7nm / 5nm
You receive a bomb threat, where do you look for guidance both in flight and on ground?
QRH and OMA 10.
What is the minimum RFFS Category?
OMA 8.1.2 - Cat 6 for A319/320
When do we not need a destination alternate?
OMA 8.1.2.2.2.4 - Dispatched under the Alternative Flight Planning Procedures, duration does not exceed 6 hours, 2 separate runways are available with weather reports +/- 1 hour ETA better than 2000ft ceiling or circling height +500ft with vis of 5k+ OR the destination aerodrome is isolated.
When can we consider 2 runways to be separate?
OMA8.1 They are separate landing surfaces which may overlay or cross such that if one of the runways is blocked, it will not prevent the planned type of ops on the other runway. Each runway shall have a separate approach procedure based on a separate approach procedure based on a separate navigation aid.
When do we require 2 destination alternates?
ONA 8.1 - The weather reports or forecasts at destination are below the applicable planning minima OR no meteorological information is available OR the landing performance requirements cannot be assured at a destination due to dependence on a specific wind component or runway state.
Can you start an approach with the RVR below limits?
OMA 8.4 - Yes down to the approach ban.
When is a landing said to be ‘assured’?
OMA 8.3 - A landing is ‘assured’ if, in the judgement of the Commander, it could be completed in the event of any forecast deterioration in the weather and plausible single failures of ground and/or airborne facilities e.g CATII/III to CAT I.
You are departing from an airfield where the RVR is 200m. What must you consider?
OMA 8.1 - 200m is CAT3A minima. Any further deterioration requires a takeoff alternate. Also if RVR drops further, absolute minima for takeoff is 125m. Low Vis takeoff so CM1 must be PF for takeoff.
How long should cockpit oxygen last?
OMA 8.8.2.1 - Sufficient oxygen for the entire flight time when the cabin altitude exceeds 10000ft, subject to a minimum of 2 hours.
A passenger arrives on a stretcher, can you carry him?
OMA 8.2 - There is no provision for the carriage of stretchers on easyJet aircraft.
Can we accept the carriage of musical instruments in the cabin such as cellos?
OMA 8.2 Yes, as long as the conditions outlined are adhered to.
What is the planning minima for a takeoff alternate?
OMA 8.1 - Required if the performance or met conditions preclude a return to the departure aerodrome, weather reports +/- 1hr, must be located within 320nm, ceiling shall be taken into account aswell as RVR for non-precision and circling approaches.
Can we fly below CNR?
OMA 8.3 - Yes, when landing is assured, EAT or max delay known, at least final reserve fuel will remain at touchdown.
Where can we find the maximum duty and flight time hours?
OMA 7.1.6
How much can you reduce a rest period?
OMA 7.1.11.5 - 12 hours at home base, 10 hours out of base.
What is the minimum age for an unaccompanied minor?
OMA 8.2.2.5 - 16 years old.
Human remains are being loaded. Can you carry them?
OMA 8.2.2.6 - easyJet do not accept human remains for carriage on any routes.
When shall the Commander advise ATC ‘MINIMUM FUEL’?
OMA 8.3.7.2 When having committed to land at a specific aerodrome, the pilot calculates that any change to the existing clearance to that aerodrome may result in landing with less than planned final reserve fuel. It informs ATC that all planned aerodrome options have been reduced to a specific aerodrome of intended landing.
