Planeview (Avionics Cont’d) Flashcards
The heading sources to the EBDI (Electronic Bearing Distance Indicator) are:
IRS 1, IRS 2, Magnetic from the magnetometer.
When operating single engine only, the TCAS must be RESET to what mode?
“TA” only
When flying approaches, the PF should have which page displayed on his Display Controller?
- NAV
- WHY? So FMS mode may be reselected on “go-around”
- FMS for Blue Data. Nav for GREEN
DEGRADE (Amber) is an alert annunciation. It is displayed when?
- The FMS cannot guarantee the position accuracy for the present phase of flight due to sensor availability (i.e. GPS / VOR / DME)
- Example EPU exceeds RNP
What would you do if DEGRADE is annunciating during an FMS-based approach (blue data)?
Execute a missed approach
For the FMS to autotune the localizer frequency, the:
Radios need to be in autotune
Can the FMS be used to fly Localizer approaches?
No, you cannot use the FMS to fly Localizer based approaches.
If you get a “Traffic-Climb” Alert, and ATC says DESCEND, what would you do?
Climb
What is the call to ATC for a TCAS Resolution Advisory?
TCAS RA
How do you check TERRAIN DATA BASE date on CMC?
MAP PAGE / MENU / CMC / DB CONFIG
WINDSHEAR warning is active
- On Take-off from Ground to 1500’ AGL
- On Landing from 1500’ to 10’ AGL
- On Missed Approach up to 1500’ AGL
Can you inhibit WINDSHEAR callout function?
No
Obstacles, when selected for display, must be a minimum of ______ feet to appear on the MAP display
1000’ AGL
TAWS ALERT pops up in HSI and changes to what range?
5 mile 1/2 range (10 mile range)
When will the ground proximity tape appear on the bottom of the PFD ALTITUDE TAPE?
600 feet AGL (RADIO ALTITUDE)
Radio Altitude is active between what altitudes?
-20’ (negative 20’) to 2500’
RA should read -5 on the ground
If flying in LNAV (FMS) mode, will track be displayed on the VSD?
- No
- The terrain displayed is UNDER the FLIGHT PLAN ROUTE (solid magenta line)
When flying in HEADING mode, the aircraft TRACK is displayed on the MAP as?
A dashed MAGENTA line
When flying in HEADING mode, what terrain is displayed on the VSD?
- The terrain located under the TRACK LINE (dashed magenta line)
- TRACK will be displayed under the VSD display
A dashed MAGENTA line on the VSD depicts the aircraft:
Flight Path Angle (vertical flight path)
What dies the word TRACK displayed on the VSD mean?
The terrain displayed is UNDER THE MAP TRACK LINE (dashed magenta line)
The maximum demonstrated altitude loss for a coupled go-around is:
60 feet
Actual track from the IRS is displayed on the MAP when the ground speed is greater than:
20 knots
During the tracking phase of an ILS approach the system uses landing aide flight path information from both the pilot and copliot called ILS DUAL COUPLED APPROACH MODE. This phase is automatically initiated at what altitude?
1200 ft Radio Altitude
What does a BLACK LINE on the VSD mean?
Aircraft not flying the Flight Plan Route
If the aircraft experiences GPWS and a TCAS event simultaneously, what takes priority?
GPWS event
Can you select Weather on the 360 HSI display on the PFD?
No
The glideslope cancel switch on the Master Warning Panel will cancel glideslope alerts when activated below:
2000’ AGL
The glideslope cancel switch on the Master Warning Panel when activated, is automatically reset when the aircraft descends below ______ feet or climbs above _____ feet AGL
30’ / 2000’
Can you use the autothrottles on a Single Engine Approach?
No
Can you use the Autopilot on a Single Engine Approach?
Yes, but it must be disconnected for Go-Around
TOGA function is available only when the airplane is ?
- Below 16,500’ MSL and
- Below 2000’ AGL
- Or the airspeed is less than 200 knots
