Q

FMS Navigation

A

Both FMS systems need to be available. Otherwise reference to a ground based nav aid is required.

17
Q

Holdover time after de icing

A

35min

18
Q

Icing Conditions Definition

A

Ground: SAT = 5* or less AND visible moisture.

Flight: TAT = 7* or less AND visible moisture.

19
Q

Maximum surface wind to operate

A

55kts

20
Q

Lightning strike temp range

A

-10* to +5*

21
Q

Aerodrome with unserviceable navaid

A
  • 2 serviceable FMS’s
  • Destination must have RNAV approach
  • An alternate must be nominated that has a ground based navaid other than NDB
  • Sufficient fuel to be carried to divert at any point.
22
Q

Are VOR Overlay approaches allowed via an Arc?

A

No

23
Q

What is the minimum RFS for a Tech Alternate?

A

There is no prescribed minimum

24
Q

Max Speeds into an unattended aerodrome

A

180kts below 5000ft AGL

Consider slowing below 200kts below 9,500ft AGL

25
Q

Minimum visibility on a circling approach?

A

5000m or prescribed minima (whichever is higher)

26
Q

Ground-Based Nav Aid Requirement

A

Either the Destination or Alternate aerodrome has to have at least 1 nav aid (other than NDM) operational.

Eg. A flight to TG will need to have a Tech or WX alternate that has an operational VOR or ILS approach at time of diversion.

27
Q

Departure Alternate Requirement and conditions

A

Departure alternate is required when:

  • Departure aerodrome weather is below landing minima.

Conditions:
- Alternate aerodrome minima apply.
- No ground-based nav aid req.
- RFS, ATC, ground staff are not considered
- Flight time to alternate has to >1 hour flight time at single engine cruise speed.

28
Q

If the crosswind is close to the aircraft’s limitation prior to commencing the approach, what should you do?

A

Request a wind check prior to commencing the approach, if above the limitation do not commence the approach.

If during the approach the wind increases above the limitation then a discontinued approach / go around must be commenced

29
Q

How long are RAIM predictions valid for?

A

72 hours

30
Q

Circling minima

A

1000ft AAL or published minima + 50ft, whichever is higher

31
Q

What is the configuration for drift down procedures when terrain limited and when not

A

Terrain limited:
- drift down speed and flaps 0 (flaps 15 in icing)

Non terrain limited:
- IAS 200kts
- once ROD reduces to 500ft/min - maintain ROD

Optimum cruise alt = 7000ft/8000ft

32
Q

When the runway contaminant is less than 25%, do you consider it a wet or dry runway

A

Wet

33
Q

Can you take off and land at an airport with a reduced length due to the threshold being contaminated?

A

Not for landing unless the threshold is the opposite runway and the reduced length is within the landing distance.
Takeoff can be performed with consultation with the Performance team.

34
Q

Can you operate into or out of an uncontrolled aerodrome that is contaminated

A

No - only controlled

35
Q

Are circling approaches approved at aerodromes in uncontrolled airspace?

A

No. Fly straight in approaches only
