QRH Flashcards
Above 80 knots, and before V1, when would you reject take off?
Fire or fire warning
Engine failure
PWS
Airplane unsafe or unable to fly
What differentiates a high-speed rejected takeoff is a low speed reject to takeoff?
The 80 knots call
When does the FO inform ATC that the aircraft has performed an RTO?
After the 60 kn call
(This insures no items in the RTO are missed)
What is the appropriate reaction to windshear Caution “monitor radar display” ?
Manoeuvre as required to avoid the windshear
(Most likely normal go around with request for heading)
What is the windshear warning that would occur during the takeoff roll?
WINDSHEAR AHEAD WINDSHEAR AHEAD
below V1= reject
After V1, windshear escape manoeuvre
What to do if encounter windshear on the runway after V1?
At VR rotate towards 15°
Airborne, perform manoeuvre
If airspeed lost near VR, initiate rotation at least 2000’ before end of runway (ie: when lights start alternating red and white) ACTUALLY: when runway edge lights turn amber.
Higher pitch attitude may be required.
Ensure max thrust
Once airborne, perform Windshear escape man.
PWS go around windshear ahead what do you do?
Perform windshear Escape manoeuvre
Or
Normal go around
What are indications the Airplane is in windshear?
WINDSHEAR WINDSHEAR
OR
unacceptable flightpath deviations
(Below 1000 feet AGL in excess of any the following:
15 kn indicated airspeed
500 FPM
5° pitch
One dot displacement GS
Unusual thrust reposition for a significant period of time
If the electronic checklist fails, can you continue?
The normal checklist have a paper version at the beginning of the QRH
Also,
You can enable the E-CL via the engineering tab
How do you determine the validity of a bomb warning?
Contact IOC and the three options are
Red
Amber
Green
NNC 0.1
Ops A 10.2.4.6
Bomb warning, if time permits, initiate security search. How long will the search take?
30 min. Ops A 10.2.4.4
So if near landing, forget about it.
Cabin alt selector pull and set to current cabin alt. (Getting rid of pressure differential)
Plan to land at nearest suitable
Do all checklists (bomb warning in unannunciated, descent approach landing) 
What happens if you get a green bomb warning?
No additional security measures need to be actioned by the Crew
(therefore not normally communicated to the Crew)
Where can the bomb threat PAs be found?
10.2.4.5 0PS part a
And
QRH ops info
Where can the proper search checklist for a bomb be found? Besides OMA
Flight deck stationary wall
Cabin crew manual
FOP SEPM 11.19
Bomb warning on ground considerations?
NNC
Red: disembark passengers and crew
(How? Precautionary disembarkation using slides? Stairs gate.
Normal is to use stairs or bridge, but if safety truly concerned, use the slides
(Ops A)
Amber : consider advice from IOC
Green: on the ground, you won’t even receive a green threat
(Continue as normal)
Bomb Warning in flight considerations:
NNC UNNANNUNCIATED
RED:
The idea is to reduce the cabin differential
(Landing alt to current cabin alt. Descend to this alt asap. Depress aircraft)
Use momentary blips out valve manual
Plan to land at the nearest suitable Airport (weather and notams matter)
Consider flying at VMO and 300 kn until 15 miles
Establish landing configuration early
(In case bomb takes out systems)
If less than 30 minutes to landing :
no search
More than 30 minutes : basic search
Approximately one minute per passenger seat for a full search
(Nearing 60 min)
Ditching considerations
NNC UNANNUNCIATED
Reduce weight
Plan flaps 30 gear up
Below 5000 feet
Close outflow valves fully, so you don’t sink after landing.
Minimum rate of descent at touchdown
Don’t forget after touchdown items :
Fuel Control switches to cut off
APU fire switch pull
At 2000 feet
Attention crew at stations attention crew at stations
30 second before impact
Attention brace brace
Hijacking considerations
QRH NNC 0.9
OPS A
10.2.3.8
Communications required: CACS
- CPLC emergency report
- ADSB emergency
–Company - situation
(confirm speed? Don’t answer)
– squaw 7500 ident
Primary goal of the Flight Crew is to land aircraft at the nearest suitable
Overweight landing considerations
NMC 0.10
- Approach or landing climb limit weight only become an issue at Max takeoff weight and 38°C
- If engine out or climb limit weight exceeded use flaps 20
170 kn is your magic number
- Vref 30+add is 170 or below, use
flaps 30 for landing.
-Vref 30 is 171 or more, use flaps 25
(Buffer for placard speed)
ASR and AML required
Overweight Landing is considered safe
Autoland not recommend
Do the checklist if possible
Consider dumping fuel
Reasons for overweight landing:
Uncontained fire
Medical emergency
Red bomb warning
Anything requiring urgency
Pilot incapacitation considerations
Optimum automation
Autoland, if possible
Tell ATC
(Heart attack or death an option: MAYDAY)
Don’t forget Duty Ops Doctor through IOC SATCOM
Runway takeoff data change checklist considerations
NNC 0.15
UNANNUNCIATED
Required if the before checklist has been actioned, and new runway or OPT required.
Consider running through ADOLFP again. “ can you bring up the runway takeoff data change checklist, so we don’t forget”
- consider asking FO to input SID and check waypoints, while captain makes quick PA to passengers.
- Input new clearance : (SID, link the legs, do the CDU Y)
Brief
Opt (send again)
Load sheet final
Final prep
Once all complete call for the runway takeoff data change checklist 
Crew oxygen low EICAS
Considerations
Oxygen pressure is low
Are you going to divert because of this?
Real and we depress , everybody dies
However, we dispatched with enough and we are not depressurised (ops table)
Are you going to divert to BODO because of this? I would vote not.
Which doors are plugged in which doors are not plugged?
Every door is plugged except for door FWD cargo and door AFT cargo
(They are the only two that can be operated electronically) all plug doors need to be closed manually
This is important because the door aft cargo and door forward cargo checklist are quite long and require you to descend
Door aft cargo EI CAS
Considerations
Not good
Not a plug door
Need to reduce the cabin differential pressure to reduce the risk of door separation
Basically, you’re not going anywhere far
If you’re in the climb out , stop climb press ALT hold and inform ATC immediately
Dump fuel and return
Door bulk cargo EICAS
Considerations
All good
Non-Plugged door
No NNC
Continue normal Operations
(Need to make sure pressurisation works fine, so consider climbing out in VS 500-1000.)
Any EICAS with regards to doors which ones do you need to look out for?
Door Fwd cargo
Door aft cargo
Non plugged
Return or divert
DOOR WING SLIDE L, R
Considerations
The door for the unpressurided wings slide compartment is not closed and secure
(You potentially have a door flapping around with a slide that may or may not open, contact ENG and DOM for advice)
Common to see the EICAS message DOORS, what does it mean?
Two or more doors are not closed and secure
EMER LIGHTS EICAS indicates what?
One of these occurs:
Emergency lights are on
Or
Emergency light switch is not armed
(Basically look up and check the switch it’s not where it’s supposed to be)
Lock Fail EICAS
NNC
Either the lock is failed
or
the Flight deck access system switches off
Remove electrical power from the lock by selecting the switch by the door off
The door can be locked with the deadbolt
Passenger oxygen low EI CAS
Considerations
A good DOGAM experiment
Refer to Ops a 8.8 
Window damage FWD L/R
Considerations
NNC
Either an electrical issue or structural issue
Either way, turn off Window heat
Structure Is in doubt, descend and Land
Window flight deck L/R
Considerations
NNC
Potentially forgot to close before takeoff
Maintain flap placard speed and close the window
The slower the better
(You may not be able to close the window above 250 kn)
Do not continue if you cannot lock
Potentially very loud (consider squawk 7600) broadcast intentions
Note : the Airplane can fly unpressurised and land safely with the window open
(if both windows are not closed and locked, you will get the
WINDOWS EICAS)
Which EI CAS will you get if both Flight deck side windows are not closed and locked?
WINDOWS
Cabin altitude memory items
What speed should you descend at?
Don the oxygen masks
Establish true communication
Check the cabin alt and rate
Uncontrollable ?
Passenger oxygen switch on.
Without to send to the Lo safe altitude or 10,000 feet whichever is higher
If structural integrity is in doubt limit the airspeed
Structural integrity is not in doubt, descend at VMO/MMO.
Bleed leak body EICAS
Do the non-normal checklist
BLeed leak occurs in The Body area
Sit on hands
Isolation system will try to isolate within three minutes
Pilot action only needed when
BLEED LOSS shows.
BLEED LEAK EICAS
considerations
Bleed air leak occurs in the Wing or pack bay area
Sit on hands
System will try to auto isolate within five minutes
Pilot action only needed when
BLEED LOSS message shows.
Which BLEED EICAS message requires pilot action?
BLEED LOSS
Bleed leak strut L/R
Considerations.
Do the NNC
Bleed air leak or starter duct leak occurs in the strut area (near engine)
System will try to auto isolate within one minute
If isolate doesn’t work, Bring thrust lever back to idle.
(DECLARE A PAN PAN, request descent to lower altitude)
How would you handle?
VNAV drift down?
FLCH?
Probably try momentarily first at cruise.
Bleed Loss Body
Considerations
NN2.8
Do the NNC
Action required by pilot
C1 and C2 air demand pump selectors off
Gear retraction now take 3 minutes
Bleed loss body L
And bleed loss body R
Considerations
Basically, the auto isolation of the systems has finalised and now the pilot action is required.
Essentially just shut off the respective hydraulic air demand pump selector
Bleed loss Wing L/R
Considerations
Bleed air from a specific wing duct is not available.
Need to turn off the Wing anti-ice to prevent assymmetric ice buildup
What should you do if you see the EICAS bleed off APU
Look up quickly
You can do that on normal checklist
Either the bleed valve is closed because of a fault
Or the APU bleed switch is selected off
Bleed off engine L/R
Considerations
Same as APU
Do NNC
ENGINE BLEED VALVE IS CLOSED BECAUSE OF A FAULT
OR
THE SWITCHES OFF
On the ground
-Try to recycle
- consider. MEL implications
(Maint action required, and quite complicated)
In the air:
Turn the bleed air switch off
Cabin ALTITUDE AUTO EICAS
Considerations
Pretty serious situation
Do the NNC
Real life in climb out out of Hong Kong
I would probably stop climb and call Engineering (or slow climb at least, VS 500-1000 and set F230, as that’s first altitude in NNC table)
Not sure I would be happy to continue with manual control of pressurisation.
(Though Tan said did SFO-Hong Kong with this issue, not a big deal)
- plane is working fine, just a controller that’s out. Still consult engineering.
Basically, one of two things has occurred :
The automatic pressure control failed
Or
Both outflow valves switches are in manual
Biggest note:
Try to climb to the cabin at approximately 500 ft./m for climbs in
CABIN TEMP COLD
Or
CABIN TEMP HOT
considerations
Unannunciated.
Flight deck or cabin temperature is excessively cold or hot.
What is excessively cold!?
Uncontrollable? Below 18? Near freezing?
Because if you do this checklist, you are depressing and diverting.
Works through :
Aircon reset
Trim switches
Pack left pack right
How long does it take to open the outflow valves fully if the indication is blank?
Press and hold the switch in the open position for 30 seconds
NNC 2.18
Equip cooling ovrd checklist considerations.
Do the NNC
TRY TO RESET
IF doesn’t work:
After 30 minutes of operation at Low alt and low cabin differential press: equipment and displays may fail
(Defined as 9000’ and 3.4PSI)
Outflow Valve FWD/AFT NNC
considerations
Basically close the affected valve and manual
Use the operable outflow valve
Pattern altitude (1500AGL)
Use momentary actuation to open the affected outflow valve fully (
If you have PACK L or PACK R
checklist come up, what should you watch out for?
An engine failure on the opposite side.
Pack L + R checklist considerations:
You’ve lost pressurisation.
How fast will cabin alt climb?
Wait 2 min before AIRCON RESET
STILL SHOWS
DESCEND MSA OR 10,000’
(If needed, race the cabin altitude, by using FLCH, MMO and speed brake)
Be advised, checklist doesn’t have you start APU! Below F220, it will provide air!
Do it.
Pan Pan
What is the ENGINE RESPONSE checklist and where is it found?
777-300 ONLY
UNANNUNCIATED
Pull it up if engines are not doing what they are supposed to.
1) one or both engines do not reach commanded thrust
AND
2) fuel system icing is suspected
(Indicated EPR is below commanded EPR and fuel temperature is below -10°C)
Basically: (attempt to clear icing)
-Request descent
-Bring both engines back to idle
-Bring one engine at a time up to maximum
What is interesting about the QRH Tails strike checklist?
ER has 2:
-Tail strike Unannunciated checklist
(Suspected or confirmed)
-Tail strike automatic checklist
300:
Tail strike auto checklist
(If message stays, go back)
(If it not shown, continue)
All cases, if tail strike, do not continue to pressurise.
Different to tail skid
(Not in commanded position, not available on all aircraft), if get this, not big deal
What would you do if you got the tail skid message?
Continue climb.
Think about how hard you hit tail.
Environmental conditions.
Not available in all aircraft
Only:
300
HNS to HNX
HNE to HNK
ER:
KPA-KPE
KPG-KPX
KPZ-KQL
Where is a good place to look to find out if you can do an auto land using flaps 25?
QRH
Operational information
Aircraft differences 6.2
NNC 3.4
Anti ice Eng L or R
In the end if you need to turn it off, it says avoid icing conditions…what does this mean?
Go or no go?
If airborne, continue, and try your best to stay VMC. Is it summer or winter?
If you get on ground before departure, are you going to go?
Consider MEL and OPT items.
2 installed, 1 required, but requires lock out… so:
Call ENG.
Check icing charts on paper flight plan
(HIWC HIGH ICE WATER CONTENT chart)
ANTI ICE LEAK ENG L,R checklist:
How long should auto isolation take, and what if it can’t be isolated?
Sit on hands, auto isolation should take 2 minutes.
If it doesn’t, you’ll have to reduce engine thrust potentially to idle, and continue with one engine.
(You should be at low level with this issue, so either return or continue to land)
Unlikely to get in cruise.
If you do, consider how you would handle ATC and need to lower altitude.
When would ANTI ICE ON EICAS checklist show up?
All of these occur:
EAI is selected on
TAT is above 10 degrees
No ice detected.
If your PITOT heat Center fails, can you use the standby Air data for the ISFD?
Yes, only if not in icing conditions.
Is the PFD data compromised if you get a single PITOT heat failure left or right?
PFD Air data is not affected by a single pedo failure.
Ensure that the opposite side Air data/attitude source switch stays off.
Is Air data reliable if you get
HEAT PITOT left + Center+right?
Air data is unreliable in icing condition only
When do ice crystal icing conditions exist?
Unannunciated!
When in visible moisture and one or more of the following are present:
- Amber or red weather radar returns below the plane
- Liquid water on the windshield at temperature is too cold for rain
- Auto throttle disconnect or is unable to maintain selected airspeed
- TAT indication on EICAS stays near 0°C
- Abnormal engine vibration indications
- Light to moderate turbulence
- st Elmo fire
- smell of sulphur or ozone
- Humidity increase

What is an indication of TAT probe icing?
NNC 3.11
- Reference/target N1 indications blank.
- Reference/target N1 indications decrease while flying at constant altitude and airspeed.
Is it recommended to climb or descent exit ice crystal icing conditions?
NNC 3.12
No not recommended. Try to exit the ice crystal icing conditions laterally
Cann fan hub icing cause engine vibration?
NNC 3.13
Yes, it can be above four units
Fan blade ice removal procedures have no effect on fan hub icing
When clear of clouds, FanHub ice sublimates and the vibration will decrease overtime
Can remain into descent
Considerations for EICAS
ICE DETECTORS?
Checklist gets you to run the Wing and engine anti-system manually
If you get this on the ground you’ll consider the MEL 30–80-01
(This will prompt you to turn off WAI and EAI for takeoff)
It’s also an OPT item.
Most likely because OPT will assume these are on given the conditions, therefore it needs a prompt.
Turn them on with the ATOC if required.
These 3 EICAS messages show without any checklist what do they mean?
Icing ENG
Icing Wing
Window heat
Icing is detected and the required switch is off
In the case of window heat two or more window heats are off
Window heat left or right FWD checklist on NNC 3.15.
Follow checklist and if it leads you to turn off the forward Window heat is there any backup system?
Yes, the window is defogged by the back up system
What is the difference between the QRH EICAS
Data link lost
Versus
Datalink Sys
Vs
HF DATALINK
Datalink lost means it’s temporarily gone
DATALINK SYS: the datalink system is failed
HF DATALINK means hf datalink failed
Radio transmit EICAS, comes with an automatic checklist.
How long must a microphone be stuck in order to get this message?
30 seconds.
Objective is to identify and isolate the stock microphone switch
Systematically go through each transmitter switch and switch it to interphone , if you try to enter and the radio transmit disappears then that was the stuck mic, and it should remain in INTERPHONE
ELEC AC BUS L/R checklist, some considerations.
On the ground, will you continue?
Automatic checklist
Basically, try to reset the gen control switch off then on
Check if there’s an associated status message on the ground , if ELEC GEN OFF, many maintenance items, return for maintenance.
Maybe out of scope of MEL as well. 
ELEC BACK UP SYS
(BUG system)
How many resets per flight?
One
Auto checklist
Associated MEL (if taxiing out)
Definitely pulll out, as it wants you to check that FLT CTL SYS is not showing
24-25-01A
And
May also require:
27-02-04 PFCS interface (No Land 3)
(With maintenance procedures)
Which adds
22-11-07-01
Basically Land 2 showing (therefore Cat3A only, update flight plan)
I’d be practical about this flight plan issue, if it’s beautiful day, don’t delay to update flight plan.
ELEC GEN DRIVE L/R
How many resets do you get for the elec Gen drive?
None, if you press the disc switch, it’s irreversible.
You will then get the ELEC GEN Drive checklist, which you don’t need to do.
If taxiing out, big maintenance procedures, so not continuing.
Require APU to be running entire flight, so probably more fuel as well.
ENG
FUEL
AFTL’s
AIIPS
ELEC GEN OFF L/R
Is there an associated checklist?
How many resets of the Gen CTRL
switch do you get per flight?
At what altitudes can the APU supply electrics?
Yes
One
All altitudes
ELEC GND HANDLING BUS
caution? Need for concern?
Airborne no.
On ground, MEL has many maintenance procedures.
Perhaps contact ENG and see if they require or recommend doing MEL maintenance actions prior to departure.
My only concern is that there is a fault with an Electrical Bus.
Do you really want to take off without disconnecting the associated Circuit Breakers?
ELEC STANDBY SYS
ELEC STANBY BUS
Do they have MEL items?
NONE
Meaning not covered by the scope of the MEL.
If taxiing out after dispatch, would you consider going?
If you lose electrical power, you have no back up.
Not very comfortable.
If ENROUTE, perhaps inform ATC? Why? Prob no need until something actually happens.
MAIN BATTER DISCH
advisory message
How long can the battery power the standby system?
Is there an MEL item for this?
5 minutes
NONE on MEL, so not good.
Aborted Engine Start L/R
When would you use it and how would you call for it?
EGT limit exceed
Anytime not happy
PF:
Aborted Engine start
Pull relevant FCS
Call for Unannunciated:
“Aborted Engine Start Checklist”
Basically gets you to run started for 30 seconds
Who is responsible for FCS during Dual Eng Fail Stall?
PF pitch to horizon
Call for Dual Eng Fail Stall memory items
PM cycle the FCS’s
Should you manually abort an airborn autostart of the engine if the EGT. Turns red?
NNC 7.2
No.
EGT turns red when EGT exceeds start limit line (lower red)
Autostart stops the start when EGT gets Too high for continued operation.
If you encounter Volcanic ash and lose both engines, which checklist should you do first?
Volcanic
Or
Dual Eng Fail stall?
Fly plane.
Volcanic ash checklist first.
Gets you to 180 and descend.
Also directs you to do Dual Eng Fail Stall.
In the dual Eng fail stall checklist, why does it direct you to reset the PFC’s?
NNC 7.3
Restores the flight controls to normal mode, so you can re-engage autopilot.
(Can only do when Heat Pitot L+C+R blanks)
When would you get the ENG AUTOSTART L/R checklist?
One of these occur:
Autostart didn’t start the engine
(Most likely scenario)
Or
Fuel control switch in run at low engine RPM with Autostart switch off
(Manual start and you forgot a step?)
Call for memory items
(PF to control FCS)
If you get ENG AUTOSTART L/R while starting up, is it necessarily a no go item?
No.
Pulll up MEL and consult IOC
But no Maintenance Items and just requires you to do a manual start (read slowly)
One or more reasons to call for the “Eng Lim Surge Stall” memory items and checklist…
What are they?
Eng indications abnormal
Quickly nearing or showing exceedance
Abnormal engine noises heard, possible with airframe vibration
No response to thrust lever, or it’s weird
Flames in engine inlet or exhaust reported
What are the memory items for ENG LIM SURGE STALL
Auto throttle arm switch off
Thrust lever reduce
Basically, checklist gets you to continue at reduced thrust if EGT has stabilised
Or shut engine down
ENG severe damage/separation occur when one or more of these occur
Airframe vibrations with abnormal engine indications
Engine separation (no N1)
ENG severe damage/separation occur when one or more of these occur
Airframe vibrations with abnormal engine indications
Engine separation (no N1)
Once you finish the memory items for engine, severe damage separation. the checklist tells you that if you have high airframe vibration after shutting down the engine, what should you do?
Slow down and go down
What are the consequences of an EICAS message ENG AUTOSTART OFF?
Any checklist?
Any MEL implications?
Check the auto start switch
No checklist required
MEL :
2 installed 0 required
Use supplementary procedure for manual engine start
What does the EICAS message?
ENG CONTROL L/R indicate?
EEC system fault
ENG EEC MODE L/R has an associated checklist.
Does this mean EEC is in hard alternate or soft alternate?
This means an EEC is in the alternate control mode (soft alternative)
The goal is to run both engines in alternate mode
By manually turning off both EEC’s, you are now in hard alternate 
Is the auto throttle available with the EEC in hard alternate?
Yes.
Autothrottle available in all modes
NNC 7.14
Airborne with the auto start trying to relight the engine does the auto start allow the EGT to go past the starter limit?
Yes

It is important not to interrupt the auto start.
Only abort the start if:
-There is no oil pressure indication after EGT increase
-EGT quickly nears or exceeds the start limit
ER (750 ground 825 Air)
300: (700 degrees Celsius)
- No further auto start attempts needed
With an engine shutdown, why do we switch the transponder to TA only?
Avoid nuisance RA
Make other planes the slave
With an engine out and a planned to land flaps 20 what warning will you get? If you do not select:
GND PROX FLAP OVRD switch?
TOO LOW FLAPS
Engine out on a triple seven what does it mean to land at the nearest suitable airport?
What is a suitable Airport?
Adequate plus NOTAM AND WEATHER
ENG FUEL FILTER
OR
ENG OIL FILTER
EICAS message and associated checklist, what should you think immediately?
Contamination.
Run the checklist
Think: land nearest suitable
(Basically chance of flameout)
Fuel you basically run per normal
(Because engines share same fuel)
Oil (has you reduce or shutdown affected engine) as oil is specific to that engine
ENG FUEL VALVE L/R is associated with Engine fuel valve or Spar valve?
Either: run the checklist
One or more of these occur:
Engine fuel valve is not in the commanded position
Fuel spar valve is not the commanded position
When does the EICAS message:
ENG IDLE DISAGREE show?
One engine is at approach idle and the other engine is at minimum idle
Occurs with many MEL items :
EAI
PACK
ACM
ECV
For an engine in Flight start all of the following need to be true:
There is N1 rotation
There was no engine fire (because pulling fire switch is irreversible?)
There is no abnormal airframe vibration
The engines can start very slowly the time from field control switch to run to stabilise can take up to how many minutes ?
Not memory item:
2.5 minutes
NNC 7.23
Very rare to see, but when would you see the
ENG LIMIT PROT EICAS and associated checklist?
The EEC is in the alternate mode and the commanded and one exceeds the limit
ER: 100.5
300: 110.5
Is there an engine oil quantity low EICAS?
What EICAS messages are there for Oil?
No. No minimum oil QTY
OIL FILTER : contamination, reduce
Oil pressure : low, shut down
Oil temperature : high, reduce
What are the engines speed limitations?

What is the difference between :
ENG SHUTDOWN
and
ENG SHUTDOWN L/R
ENG SHUT DOWN
means both engines were shut down.
ENG STARTER CUTOUT L/R
Means what?
Do the checklist:
Start valve fails to close
Start selector stays and start
Goal : to put it back to normal or remove Air (follow checklist)
You will get other Items because of this:
BLEED LOSS WING
BLEED OFF ENG
PACK
(Don’t do checklists, but may have serious MEL impacts if still on ground)
What does the EICAS message
ENG THRUST L/R
Indicate ?
Engine thrust is less than the command thrust
(Think about 300 unannunciated checklist: ENG RESPONSE)
Volcanic ash is an unannunciated checklist. When would you suspect?
One or more of these occur
Static discharge on the windshield
Saint Elmo’s fire
Bright glow in the engine inlet
Smoke or dust in Flight deck
Acrid odour
What is the best way to exit volcanic ash?
180° turn with engines at idle
Don the oxygen masks if needed
Pull up the checklist
If you are confident, you are in volcanic ash and your engine start to fail which item should you do first? The volcanic ash checklist or the dual engine fail stall memory items?
Volcanic ash checklist
It specifically says do not do the Dual engine fails stall checklist until directed
Why does the volcanic ash checklist direct you to turn on the engine anti and the wing Anty ice?
To further reduce engine thrust and heat
If you encounter volcanic ash and then exit the cloud and your engines are fine should you consider a diversion?
The volcanic ash checklist step 14 states plan to land at the nearest suitable airport
You just got rocked and do not know the extent of the damage
What chapter in QRH is Engine issues and Fire issues?

FIRE ENG on GROUND CHECKLIST.
What is a FIRE ENG TAILPIPE
UNANNUNCIATED CHECKLIST
Engine tailpipe fire occurs on ground with no engine fire warning!
THEREFORE:
Observed by ATC or CABIN CREW
Anytime there is smoke fire or fumes anywhere in the plane, which checklist should be done first?
SMOKE FIRE FUMES CHECKLIST
Gets rid of the usual suspects, like:
IFE
RECIRC FANS
APU BLEED
Unsure of where it is? Continue shutting
CABIN UTILITY
Starting fast diversion while continuing checklist:
Tries to isolate:
L bleed
R bleed
WHEN should you do the
SMOKE or FUMES REMOVAL checklist?
Anytime the smoke or fumes become biggest threat (smoke in cockpit etc)
Or
