Q

How frequent and how is a fuel check done when overflying a waypoint?

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCOM-PRO-NOR-SOP-150

A
  • Compare permanent SD FOB and Prediction in FUEL & LOAD Page with the OFP Navlog or the IFPA CRZ module (diversion).
  • Check sum of FOB and FU is consistent with Block Fuel and deduce the following
    1. If the sum if much less and cannot be explained suspect a fuel leak
    2. If Sum is much above then suspect an overread.
  • Check for imbalance

When overflying a designated waypoint or every 30 minutes if distance between waypoints is more than 30 minutes.

7 Reasons

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCTM-PR-NP-SOP-190

A
  • Last AP disengages
  • Excessive LOC-G/S deviation

  • TCM during flare
  • Alpha Floor

TCM: Thrust Control Malfunction

29
Q

What are some specificities regarding RF legs in FCTM?

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCTM-PR-NP-SOP-190

A
  • Crew are to be aware that X-TRK error could arise if GS is too high or with exessive TW as the AOB is limited to (30º AEO, 25º OEI, 15º below maneuvring speeds) and be ready to take over as the deviation tolerances are low.
  • In case of GA during and RF segement the crew must ensure the A/C flies in NAV mode
30
Q

What does SRS target in the go around?

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCTM-PR-NP-SOP-210

A

VLS+25 (AEO)
VLS+15 (OEI)

31
Q

What might warrant an earlier flare?

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCTM-PR-NP-SOP-220

A
  • High elevation (due increased ROD)
  • Steeper approach (>3º)
  • TW (higher ROD)
  • Increased RWY slope (can cause late flare thinking you’re high and RA closure rate is quicker)
32
Q

After entering the expected arrival in FMS, what should crew check or modify?

UAE-BA7-A3L-FCOM-PRO-NOR-SOP-160

A
  • Check F-PLN agrees with STAR, IAP and MISAPP
  • Tracks and distances between waypoints
  • Speed and Altitude CSTR
  • Do not modify final and missed approach
  • Insert DES Winds

  • Modify the GA THR RED and ACCEL Alt if necessary

Using ND PLAN mode

33

A

2000 AGL. PM is to confirm the Autobrake mode to see if it is still applicable with current RWY state
