Perform Pilot Monitoring Duties Flashcards
Good monitoring and flight path management means that pilots should accomplish non-essential tasks during Areas of high Vulnerability (AOV).
False
When is the most applicable time to complete non-monitoring duties?
- At an appropriate time.
- During low workload phases of flight as able.
When a deviation from intended profile, flight path, aircraft condition, configuration or procedure is observed what is the responsibility of the PM?
To verbalize the discrepancy to the PF so they have the opportunity to correct it.
What demonstrates good flight path monitoring by the PM?
Passing 1,000 AFE on departure the PF while hand flying and complying with ATC instructions does not call for the climb sequence. The PM is aware and politely asks if the PF is ready for the climb sequence.
Prior to the PF conducting the descent briefing, the PM can exercise good workload management responsibility by:
- Anticipating the briefing and obtaining the arrival weather prior to it being needed.
- Reviewing NOTAMs for familiarity.
- Determining arrival performance data and airspeeds.
What demonstrates good flight path and automation verification by the PM?
- Observe the PF select the APCH mode on the GP/FCP.
- Verbalize the observation.
- Monitor the FMA to see that the mode becomes active
How should the PM accomplish tasks and provide information for the PF?
So as to reduce the workload of the PF.
What is the primary duty of the PM?
Monitor the flight path of the aircraft and mentally fly the aircraft.
The PM while not physically controlling the aircraft is responsible to be mentally flying the aircraft along with the PF.
True
Research has shown that it is natural for humans to continuously and effectively monitor the highly reliable aircraft systems for threats to safety.
False
