Q

What is the protocol when encountering windshear for both the PF and PM?

A

Answer: Disengage the autopilot and initiate a go-around by pressing the go-around buttons on the thrust levers and pitch to the attitude commanded by the flight director while simultaneously applying maximum thrust. Do not change the aircraft configuration (flaps or landing gear position) UNTIL ALL WINDSHEAR presentations/ indications are no longer present and terrain contact is no longer a factor. Flight guidance must be followed initially. Flight guidance may be abandoned for pitch reference if ground contact appears imminent. In this case, the PLI (up to the stick shaker) is the maximum pitch limit. Adjust pitch attitude smoothly and in small increments to control vertical speed and attitude. Pilots should be aware that speed may decay below reference speeds and that stick forces necessary to maintain an increased pitch attitude may be well above normal. When the WSHR vertical mode is active, the altitude select function (ASEL) is not armed and, therefore, any selected altitude will not be captured. The PM should call out AGL Altitude and Trends while in windshear.

Should the pitot tube become suddenly blocked (along with its drain hole) by ice, an insect or some other foreign material, it would probably go unnoticed in level flight. In a climb or a descent, however, an airspeed indicator relying on a blocked pitot tube would behave like an altimeter. The trapped pitot pressure is then measured against the varying static pressure and the result is displayed on the indicator

Deselecting the backup battery button isolates the backup battery and the backup battery hot bus, which allows for a visual confirmation that the backup battery is charged. This is confirmed by observing the ISIS remaining powered when the system is isolated. If this test is done after selecting the GPU or starting the APU, the backup battery system will not isolate and the test is invalid.

If a reset/cycle is attempted, comply with the reset/cycling procedure below.
Circuit Breaker Reset/Cycling Procedure:
 Before attempting to reset/cycle the breaker, a three-minute cool down period is required.
 If the circuit breaker trips again, DO NOT ATTEMPT ANOTHER RESET/CYCLE.
 After completion of the flight, a maintenance discrepancy shall be entered, even if the reset/cycle was successful. Note which circuit breaker tripped, the cool-down period observed, and any relevant configuration or aircraft condition at the time of the circuit breaker trip.

Reference: FOM, Section 4, Fuel

156
Q

When should “minimum fuel” be declared?

A

Minimum fuel should be declared when it is determined that a landing at the destination (or alternate, as applicable) will be made with less than the planned reserve fuel listed on the Dispatch Release.
Reference: FOM, Section 9, Emergency Operations

157
Q

What are some examples of when the PIC is required to notify the dispatcher about a change from the planned release?

A
  • Route deviations adding more than 15 minutes to the ETE,
  • Altitude changes if fuel-planning computations increase the planned fuel burn causing the depletion of the Contingency (CONTG) and Statistical Contingency Fuel/Tanker (SCF/TNK) fuel not burned prior to takeoff,
  • Any change that will cause the flight to arrive at the destination or designated alternate airport with less than minimum FAR fuel reserves, a change in destination or alternate weather.
  • Any diversion to an alternate airport, unless previously discussed with the Dispatcher.
  • Any change in the intended destination or designated alternate airport.
  • Any condition that affects the safety of the flight.
    Reference: FOM, Section 4, Flight Planning
158
Q

What minimum fuel is required for takeoff when utilizing a CDR?

A

Reference: FOM, Section 4, Dispatch/Flight Release

159
Q

When should “Emergency Fuel” be declared?

A

“Emergency Fuel” should be declared when less than 30 minutes of fuel is remaining. As a quick way to estimate 30 minutes of fuel remaining, take your FAR 45 minute reserve number (found on release) and multiply by .67. NOTE: In foreign airspace, ATC may not be familiar with the terminology, “emergency fuel.” Utilize the term “Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, Fuel.”

197
Q

What protections are available during normal braking?

A

Anti-skid protection, Locked Wheel protection and Touch-down protection.

198
Q

What is anti-skid protection?

A

Anti-skid protection controls the amount of hydraulic pressure applied by the pilots on the brakes. The anti-skid provides the maximum allowable braking effort for the runaway surface in use. It minimizes tire wear, optimizes braking distance, and prevents skidding. It is only not available if using the emergency brake

199
Q

What is locked wheel protection?

A

Locked wheel protection is activated for wheel speeds above 30 kts. It compares wheel speeds signals. If one wheel speed is 30% lower than that of another, a full brake pressure relief is commanded to the associated wheel, allowing wheel speed recovery. The 30% tolerance between the wheel speeds is provided to permit an amount of differential braking, for steering purposes.

200
Q

What is touch-down protection?

A

Touch-down protection inhibits brake actuation before the main wheels spin up during landing. Brake actuation will be allowed only after 3 seconds from the latest touchdown or after the wheels have spun-up to 50 kts. In bouncing landings, the countdown is reset after each runway contact

201
Q

When using the emergency brakes, do you have the anti-skid, locked wheel and touchdown protections?

A

No.

202
Q

A

6 emergency actuations or 24 hours of continuous parking brake actuation. A BRAKE ON indicating light illuminates to indicate that pressure is being applied to the wheel brakes.

205
Q

What does the Free-Fall actuator do?

A

It requires no electrical or hydraulic power to extend the landing gear. It extends the gear by mechanically actuating the Free-Fall Selector Valve, thus removing hydraulic pressure and unlocking the three landing gear uplocks via cable linkage. All three gear then gravity fall to their downlock positions.

206
Q

With a total loss of hydraulic system #1, will the landing gear deploy/operate normally?

A

No. In this case, the landing gear free fall actuator would be used to lower the gear

207

223
Q

True/False: Pitch trim is accomplished by positioning the horizontal stabilizer

A

True, by positioning the horizontal stabilizer

224
Q

How should the electromechanical Gust Lock be unlocked?

A

To unlock the elevator:
 Release the gust lock lever to the intermediate position.
 The GUST LOCK indication lights will illuminate during pin movement and extinguish when unlocked.
 After approximately 10 seconds, the locking pins will open and the elevators will be unlocked.
 When the GUST LOCK indication lights are extinguished, pull the control column backwards to any position between neutral and full nose up.
 Move the gust lock lever from the intermediate position to its full forward FREE position.
 The First Officer’s hand must remain on the Gust Lock during the entire unlocking procedure (e.g. do not continue the Before Takeoff flow with the Gust Lock in the intermediate position)

225
Q

How should the Flight Controls be Checked Prior to Takeoff?

A

Check full movement and freedom of the ailerons. Ten seconds after the gust lock is positioned to the full forward (FREE) position, move the control column to the full up (aft) stop, the full down (forward) stop, and back to the full up stop position. This check must be performed each time the gust lock is set to the FREE position.

319
Q

What is a cranked wing as it relates to the EMB-135/145?

A

The wing on the EMB-135/145 is cranked meaning that the wing is twisted to provide a varying angle of incidence between the root and the tip. The wing root is set at a +3º angle of incidence, while the crank/twist of the wing places the wing tip at a -1º angle of incidence. This design characteristic provides adequate airflow over the ailerons for roll control even when the root of the wing is stalled.

320
Q

What is Mach Tuck as it relates to the EMB-135/145?

A

Mach Tuck occurs when the center of pressure moves from its normal position on the top of the wing to a point slightly aft. As the center of pressure moves to the rear, it causes the nose of the aircraft to pitch down slightly. The EMB-135/145 does not present Mach Tuck tendencies until approximately .92 Mach

321
Q

Why are the wings of the EMB-135/145 swept?

A

The primary reason for wing sweep is to reduce the velocity of the air flowing perpendicular to the wing, thus reducing drag when operating in the upper limits of the transonic region. The swept wing permits higher cruise speed performance because only a portion of the wing is exposed to the critical Mach speed. The secondary effect of wing sweep is improved lateral stability.

322
Q

What are vortex generators and are any allowed to be missing?

A

12 Vortex generators are installed on the upper wing surface forward of each aileron. They energize the boundary layer to overcome the adverse pressure associated with the shock wave. In this way, vortex generators serve to delay boundary layer separation and enhance flight control effectiveness. Some vortex generators can be missing per CDL procedures

323
Q

What is Mach trim and which aircraft have it installed?

A

Mach Trim is applicable only to 145XR aircraft. Mach Trim is designed to prevent excessive speed and control column loads. If the aircraft reaches Mach 0.84, the Mach Trim function will command a 3-second nose-up trim and disengage the autopilot if engaged. The Mach Trim function has priority over any existing trim command that is in progress but can be overridden by the quick disconnect button or stick shaker

What is Method 1?

A

Should an engine fail anywhere from V1 to the destination, the aircraft’s net altitude capability will clear all obstructions by 5 SM either side of the intended route by 1000’.

330
Q

What is Method 2?

A

Method 2 requires the aircraft take off at a weight ensuring that if an engine failure occurs anywhere from V1 to the destination the aircraft must be able to divert to at least one suitable airport from normal cruise altitude and the aircraft’s net driftdown altitude will clear all obstructions 5 SM either side of the route of flight by 2,000’ until reaching the diversion airport.

331
Q

A

No. Wind reports indicating a tailwind component must be entered in their entirety on the Landing Conditions page.

334
Q

When should RSDL ICE be selected YES on the ACARS Landing Condition page?

A

It is not necessary to select to the RSDL ICE prompt solely based on the SPS/ICE SPEEDS message. Instead, should be selected when ice has accreted on unprotected surfaces of the aircraft (representative surfaces as viewable from the flight deck; ie: unheated portions of the windshield wipers, nose of aircraft).

335
Q

When should Minimum FL and Actual LD be used?
