Q

During the captain’s cockpit preparation flow, what are the settings on the SIGNS panel?

A

Seat belt - ON (only if fueling is complete)
No Smoking - AUTO
EMER EXIT - ARM

18
Q

During the captain’s cockpit preparation flow, what are we setting on the EFIS Control panel?

A 
CSTR push button active
Set Altimeter - confirm within 75' of field elevation
FD on
LS as required (rarely)
ND Mode / Range (usually arc / 10)
ADF/VOR - if you want
19
Q

What is the captain checking on the PFD during the cockpit preparation flow?

A
  1. PFD/ND not transfereed
  2. Correct display when ADIRS are aligned
  3. regular and complete display
20
Q

What is the captain checking on the ND during the cockpit preparation flow? If it’s out of parameters what needs to be completed?

A
  1. Correct display

2. Ground speed less than 5 kts - if exceeded a full ADIRS alignment must be completed

21
Q

What is the special consideration for the clock during the What is the captain’s cockpit preparation flow?

A

It must be checked against the GPS clock in the MCDU

22
Q

When conducting the “spongy brake test” during the captain’s cockpit preparation flow, what are you ensuring?

A

brake feel and checking that pressure builds up without delay symmetrically on both sides; pressure between 2200 and 2700 PSI

23
Q

What is being set on the ATC panel during the captain’s cockpit preparation flow?

A
  1. ATCY stby; squawk if available
  2. ALT RPTG on
  3. TCAS - STBY
  4. ATC SYS - toward PF
24
Q

For the audio control panel, what are you setting during the Captain’s cockpit preparation flow?

A

Init on, volume up. VHF functioning. HF - maybe better in air.

Also check tuning panel (RMP)

  1. On
  2. No green light in NAV
  3. Frequencies needed
25
Q

What are we confirming during the LEGs verification?

A
  1. MCDU plan against flight plan
  2. Estimated distance
  3. Estimated fuel remaining
26
Q

Why do we typically start Engine 1 first?

A

It powers the blue hydraulic system which pressurizes the parking brake

27
Q

What are you reviewing on the ECAM page prior to engine start?

A

Confirm that all amber crosses and messages have extinguished on the engine parameter section (upper ECAM)

28
Q

What are typical engine parameters at sea level?

A 
EPR 1.015
N1 22%
N2 47%
N3 63%
EGT ~380ºC
FF ~ 1800/h
29
Q

How long should the engines run at or near idle after start?

A

Cold engines - 5 mins
Warm (less than 1.5hrs ) - 3 mins
Taxi at idle counts

30
Q

Why do we turn the APU BLEED off after start

A

APU BLEED closes and ENG BLEED valves open to avoid ingestion of engine exhaust gases

31
Q

What is the temperature limit requiring the ice shedding procedure?

A

OAT 1ºC or less advance to 50% N1 for 10s intervals, but not for longer than 1 hour

32
Q

When is it mandatory to have at least 1 radar display on?

A

At night

33
Q

When do we operate with the ENG Start selector in IGN/START?

  3. Severe turbulence expected after takeoff
34
Q

When must the crew immediately select REV MAX on landing?

A
  1. An emergency
  2. Deceleration not as expected
  3. A failure effecting landing performance
  4. Long flare or long touch down
  5. Unexpected tailwind
35
Q

What is the the call out that the FAF?

A

Fix Name
PFD Altitude
Altimeter setting
Checked

36
Q

What is stabilized approach criteria at 1000 ft AFE

A

Gear down, fully configured, speed break retracted, appropriate thrust
Vertical speed less than or equal to 1000’ pm unless briefed
Airspeed +20/-5 kts
Only minor corrections for VS and IAS

What is stabilized approach criteria at 500’ AFE?

A 
Appropriate thrust
VSI less than or equal to 1000' unless briefed
\+10/-5 kts
All checklists completed 
Aligned with runway
38
Q

What is the captains ADIRS check after shutdown?

A

Data - LSK L 1 - check drift and compare to table in QRC according to flight time
“”””” - LSK L2 - check Ground Speed deviation + 5 kts requires write up

39
Q

The stabilized approach criteria requires we are in alignment with the runway by 500’, are there any exceptions?

A

Yes - the HNL 26L LDA

40
Q

What is the color hierarchy of guarded switches?

A

black guarded switches are reversible, red guarded switches are not

41
Q

How do we capture the glide slope if we’re held high?

A
  1. Arm approach
  2. Both APs on
  3. Roll altitude higher than present
  4. V/S -2000 and pull
42
