What is the required equipment for RVSM?
2: DMCs
ADRs
PFDs
1: Transponder
A/P
FWC
FCU channel
From which flight levels are RVSM?
FL290 to FL410
What is the vertical separation in RVSM airspace?
1000ft instead of 2000ft
Before entering RVSM airspace what is the maximum altimeter difference?
200ft before entering
During flight preparation what is the maximum altimeter difference for RVSM operation?
75ft
What are the target speeds with SRS? AEO and OEI?
What is the speed limited to?
AEO- V2 + 10kts
OEI = highest of V2 or current speed (limited by V2 +15kts)
What is the attitude protection of the SRS system?
What about in windshear?
18° nose up
22.5° nose up in windshear
What is the minimum V/S the SRS system will give you due to it’s flight angle protection?
+120fpm
Green dot rough calculation?
What is green dot in relation to Vs?
GWx2 +85kts plus 1kt per 1000ft above 20000ft
1.35Vs
What is V2?
V2 is a take off safety speed. Minimum speed to maintain until acceleration altitude with an engine failure after V1.
It ensures climb gradient is achieved at the aircraft is controllable.
What is V2?
V2 is a take off safety speed. Minimum speed to maintain until acceleration altitude with an engine failure after V1.
It ensures climb gradient is achieved at the aircraft is controllable.

Maximum fuel imbalance on take off, OUTER TANKS (inner balanced)
370kg
Fuel imbalance in flight and landing, INNER TANKS (outer balanced)
1500kg
Fuel imbalance in flight and landing, OUTER TANKS (inner balanced)

Wake turbulence separation from an A380 on departure, what about if the A380 departs from an intersection?
3 minutes / 4 minutes if intersection
Wake turbulence separation from a HEAVY on departure, what about if the HEAVY departs from an intersection?
2 minutes / 3 minutes if intersection
Wake turbulence separation from a MEDIUM on departure, what about if the MEDIUM departs from an intersection?
Not necessary
Wake turbulence separation on final approach for an A380?
7nm
Wake turbulence separation on final approach for a HEAVY?
5nm
Wake turbulence separation on final approach for an UPPER MEDIUM (UK)?
757
4nm
Wake turbulence separation on final approach for a MEDIUM?
Not necessary, minimum separation will usually be 3nm or 2.5nm depending on airport facilities
What separation do you need if a plane lands the opposite direction on your runway or does a go around? For a Heavy? For an A380?
Heavy 2 mins/ A380 3 mins
What is land ASAP red?
If red LAND ASAP is part of the procedure, land as soon as possible at the nearest airport at which a safe landing can be made.
Note:
Red LAND ASAP information is
applicable to a time-critical situation.
