Power Levers- GND IDLE
Brakes and NWS - as req
23
Q
If you’re aborting, do not move the power levers below FLT IDLE above what airspeed and why?
A
139 KTAS
due to the possibility of an over frequency condition caused by excessively high propeller RPM transients leading to all engine-driven generators tripping offline.
24
Q
If you’re aborting with an inboard engine shut down, when do you move the power levers below FLT IDLE and why?
A
not above 70 KTAS
may cause a loss of directional control
25

immediately return all power levers to GND IDLE until the affected engine can be identified.
Use rudder, aileron, NWS, differential power and diff braking as req
27

by 50 KIAS
28

29
Engine Failure After Refusal Speed Procedure
Takeoff - Continue
Directional Control - Maintain
Aircraft Attitude - Rotate to target pitch
30
What are the target pitch attitude and takeoff trim setting chosen for?
So that if the critical engine fails btwn refusal and rotate speed, the aircraft will be ~ in longitudinal trim at Vobs passing 50 foot height.
31
Why does retracting gear and flaps simultaneously increase Vmca?
reduction in available hydraulic pressure to the rudder booster assembly
32
Selecting the flap lever to a position less than 15% increases Vmca by how much? and why?
36 kts
| because of the reduction in rudder boost px and the ATCS power restoration schedule
33
What speed is the worst case Vmca with flaps up and low boost?
135 kts
34
What is the normal retraction schedule?
<100,000: raise flaps accelerating thru FUSS (135)
100,000-140,000: begin flap retraction when accelerating thru 135 and end at FUSS (Vobs +25kts)
>140,000: begin raising flaps at MFRS (Vobs+5kts) in 10% increments for each 5 kts increase in airspeed ending at FUSS (Vobs + 25kts)

Close ISO Valve and Nacelle SOV
Turn off all electrical equipment on that wing
Turn off all Pod equipment
Sideslip to keep fire away from fuselage
```

from the fore or aft of the wheel area
40
How far away should you stand from hot brakes?
300 ft
41
If a fire is near an oxygen component or there is a possibility that the oxygen could increase the fire, consider doing what?
closing the oxygen manual shutoff valve, provided portable oxygen bottles are adequate for the situation.
42

Crew/Pax - Notify
| Oxygen - EMERGENCY, 100%, ON (ALL)
43

2
46
Rapid Decompression Procedure
OXYGEN - NORMAL, 100%, ON (ALL)
47
In an emergency descent due to rapid decompression, what should you consider doing?
using the autopilot and autothrottles during descent. Select IAS mode and set the altitude select to the level off altitude
48
If an outboard engine experiences large HP oscillations when the aircraft is below Vmpr, what does the opposite outboard engine do?
reacts with corresponding ATCS oscillations.
49
What is the autofeather criteria?
No. 1 & 4 autofeather automatically
No. 2 & 3 either autofeather or remain windmilling at 100%
If below 15,500 ft and 3 other engines are running normally an inboard will autofeather after a 2 sec delay to give the engine time to recover.
At or above 15,500 ft or if another engine is shut down, the inboard windmills at 100%
50
Airstart envelope for JP-5/8 and Jet A
<250 KIAS and <25,000 ft
51
Airstart envelope for JP-4
<250 KIAS and <22,500 ft
52
Four Engine Flameout Procedure
```
Aircraft attitude - Adjust to maintain 15-28% NG
Power levers (all) - FLT IDLE
CROSS FEED switches - CLSD
No. 2 & 3 Engine Start switches - Stop, Start, Release
No. 1 & 4 Engine Start switches - Stop, Start, Release
```
53
Why do we select inboard engines first during a four engine flameout?
because at least one of them will have 100% NP
54
Why do we select STOP on the engine start switches first during a four engine flameout?
to prevent the loss of all hydraulic and generator power and to clear the FAIL condition before an outboard switch is placed to START.
Placing the engine switch to RUN before the FAIL message is cleared will cause the windmilling prop to autofeather because the MC autofeather logic will determine that an engine is running as soon as START is selected.
55
How can you tell a prop is feathered?
Forward rotation up to 1/2 revolution/sec
56
How long does the aux feather pump run for?
20 seconds

63
Why do we not extend flaps greater than 50% until landing is assured with a failed engine?
provides an easier configuration for a go-around
64
If you trip all the generators offline, what else do you lose? What could happen?

ENGINE PUMPS switches (affected system) - OFF
| SUCTION BOOST PUMPS switch (affected system) - OFF
96
Is the hydraulic system operational following a suction boost pump failure?
Yes if no hydraulic leak exists and the affected hydraulic system pressure is at least 2500 psi
97
If at any time hydraulic fluid is seen leaking from an engine, turn what off? and why?
engine-driven pump because of risk of fire. A line or pump rupture can dump hydraulic fluid into the engine
98
Why do we not want to shut off hydraulic engine pumps if pressure exceeds 3500 psi?
if you do.. the pressure line btwn the hyd pump and the shutoff valve is isolated from its means of pressure control. Excessive pressure will build up until the hyd pump or line ruptures, dumping this fluid into the engine nacelle

No. Must use the trim switch on the center console only
105
Protection against asymmetrical extension or retraction of the flaps is provided only when what's available?
