24
Q

On an approach, APR is armed for a go-around when …

A

Gear is down or the flaps are greater than 20

25
Q

On takeoff, should an engine fail and APR thrust occurs on the operative engine, APR thrust will continue until …

A

The throttle is retarded from the TO detent up to a maximum of 10 minutes

26
Q

When APR is activated or selected, what icon appears to the right of N1?

A

A cyan APR icon

27
Q

A

45% N2

29
Q

When the thrust lever is placed in the idle position, the FADEC programs …

A

Maximum N2 idle rpm

30
Q

There are three different N2 idle settings. What are they?

A

33
Q

When does the FADEC automatically calculate normal-rated takeoff thrust?

A

When electrical power is applied to the aircraft on the ground. Essential Bus power.

34
Q

During an engine failure, what difference must occur between engine N2 speeds to automatically activate the N1 speed (APR) of the operable engine?

A

15% N2

35
Q

What must exist for the engines to be synchronized?

A

Thrust levers must be in the CRZ or CLB position and the sync switch set to N1 or N2

Q

During engine sync operation, what engine is the master?

A

The engine with the higher N1 or N2 compensation or the left engine when the N1 or N2 compensation of the two engines is the same.
