OMA / OMB Flashcards

Question 1

Q

When do we not need a destination alternate

Answer

A

Question 2

Q

Question 3

Q

When do we require two destination alternates?

Answer

A

o If destination weather is unavailable.

o Landing not assured at destination as Landing depends on Specific Wind Component / runway state.

Question 4

Q

When planning for an alternate, the TAF indicates in a prob/tempo that the weather will be below limits.
Can this alternate be used?

Answer

A

SAM EDIT: I’M NOT SURE THIS IS SO SIMPLE.
OMA TABLE 8.1.6.1 shows the applicability criteria.

For me it means:
Tempo / Prob which shows improvement AT DEST ALT should be disregard
If deterioration and transient / showery / short-lived then mean wind and dust exceeding limits may be disregard

If it is a persistent (haze, mist, fog) then mean wind should be within required limits.

. o Yes

Answer 135

A

 Load Factor Limitation - Similar to that in Normal Law
 Low Speed Stability - Gentle nose down signal from 5 to 10 knots above VSW, replaces
α protection.

A

 Extra FMA calls
 Task sharing
 Items that may constitute a go-around (Auto-land light, etc.)

Answer 166

A

 Windshear actions
 Go-around actions
 Ask him if he is comfortable flying the approach (unless WS possible then I’d be flying it – see FO limitations)

Answer 167

A

 Predictive may be considered cautionary if positive verification made that no hazard exists.
 You must always react to a reactionary Windshear Warning.

Answer 168

A

 The FAC generates the Windshear warning whenever the predicted energy level for the aircraft falls below a predetermined threshold.
 FAC uses data from; ADIRS amongst other sources.
 Predictive Windshear is a function of the Weather Radar (operates below 2,300 feet)
o Requires: Wx Radar set to AUTO & Transponder set to ON or AUTO.
