55
Q

A

0.1 deg

57
Q

Final app approach when can you press APP pb?

A

FDP is to waypoint

VOR/NDB approach

A

Revert to appropriate raw data

NAV FPA
Or
TRK FPA

59
Q

When can you continue with other system?

A

GPS PRIM lost on 1 ND

Nav acc downgrade on FMGS

60
Q

GPS PRIM lost on both NDs

XTK>0.3nm

NAV FM POS DISAGREE ECAM

NAV ACC DOWNGRADE both FMGS

80
Q

81
Q

Net take off path must clear all obstacles by

A

35ft vertically

90m +0.125*D

82
Q

When is an engine considered secure?

A

Engine master off

Fire or damage fire switch is pushed and first agent discharged (or second agent if light still illum)

83
Q

V2 may be increased (by efb calc) when and why?

A

Excess take off distance available

Improve second segment climb

84
Q

Flex - why do you have longer stop distances than efb says

A

1) lower TAS at ambient temp than assumed flex temp

2) thrust delivered by eng is sig higher at ambient temp than assumed flex temp (higher air density)

85
Q

2 reasons flex take off is not allowed

A

Contaminated runway

Dispatch with landing gear extended

86
Q

Fluid contaminants

Types

Depth

Threats

A

Dry snow
Wet snow
Standing water
Slush

Depth of more than 3mm

Precipitation drag

Hydro planing

87
Q

Hard contaminant

A

Compacted snow
Ice
Wet ice

ONLY reduce friction force

88
Q

Take off perf on a contaminated runway is based on:

A

TYPE and DEPTH as reported in RCR

89
Q

contaminated runway screen height

A

15ft instead of 35

90
Q

Contamination equivalences

A

Up to 3mm of dry snow, wet snow, standing water, slush = WET

FROST = WET

Snow scenarios see OMB

91
Q

When can you NOT DISPATCH off a narrow runway?

A

NWS inop

One or more brakes inop

92
Q

When is a rolling take off not permitted?

A

TOGA due to a perf lim (RWY/OBS)

93
Q

Calculation reduce ASD for a flex T/O

A

3% for every 10C temp between flex and OAT

Eg. Flex 50, OAT 10
Difference is 40 = 4 lots of 10

0.03*4=0.12 REDUCE 12% ASD

94
Q

Purpose of a dispatch landing calc

A

Determine max allowable landing weight

Anticipated wx and surface conditions

95
Q
