— First Crew Flight on the aircraft.
— When the departure airport is located between latitudes 2° north and 2°
south.

22
Q

Cockpit Door Check (keypad and unlock function check) must be done….

A

First Aircraft Flight. The first time the aircraft flies that day (first scheduled
departure after 0000 local)

23
Q

Minimum Oil Quantity…

A

24
Q

Reverse Thrust is for ___________ use only

A

GROUND

25
Q

FLEX Takeoff thrust NOT authorized when:

A

-Contaminated Runway
-Windshear Reported
-TOW exeeds ATOW
-Airport Ops advisory pages require TOGA
-If prohibited by MEL

26
Q

The first runway displayed on the TPS is…….

A

The primary or “expected” runway to be used

It is the most favorable runway and flap setting for the current conditions

27
Q

An asterisk (*) next to flap setting on a TPS means…

A

if an asterisk (*) appears
next to the flap setting, it indicates that another flap setting would be more
advantageous for this runway. If this is the case and time permits, get new TPS
data

28
Q

Incidents/Situations REQUIRING AML Logbook entry

A

RTO
Bird Strike
Lightning Strike
Overweight Landing
Severe Turbulence
Volcanic Ash
Smoke-Fume Event
Mechanical Discrepancies

29
Q

Required INFO-ONLY entries in AML Logbook

A

non-approved fuel vendor “clear and bring test” conducted / 3g-36 #7

Flight Confidence Check / 14m-4

Pulled CVR Circuit Breaker / 14n-9

Yellow Book missing items

30
Q

After picking up a new aircraft (crew change) that just flew in, what is the FIRST flow to be accomplished?

A

ORIGINATION FLOW

31
Q

What are “First Aircraft Flight of the Day” Items

A

Security search
RCDR Panel
Alternate Brakes
Flight Deck Door

A321NAs equipped with photoluminescent strips along the cabin aisles: require
charging prior to the first flight of the day. To charge them, the cabin lights must be on their brightest setting and overhead bins closed for a minimum of 5 minutes

First Aircraft Flight. The first time the aircraft flies that day (first scheduled
departure after 0000 local)

NOTE: This will may ALSO be the First Crew Flight of the Day

32
Q

What is V1 ?

A

V1 is the maximum speed to which an aircraft can accelerate, lose an engine, and either stop or takeoff in the remaining distance.

The V1 calculation is based on a dry, hard surfaced runway, without using reverse thrust.

33
Q

After performing a Rejected Takeoff (RTO), the pilot should consider:

A

— aircraft condition

— clear the runway
Note: If the aircraft came to a complete stop using autobrakes MAX, release the
brakes prior to taxi by disarming the spoilers.

— passenger evacuation or prevention of a passenger evacuation

34
Q

What is AA “Clean Aircraft Policy?”

A

Do not takeoff when Frost, Snow, Slush or Ice is adhering to the wings, control surfaces, engine inlets, or other critical surfaces of the aircraft. This includes radome, probes, APU inlet and APU exhaust

F.S.S.I.

35
Q

What type of de-icing fluid is required in “Heavy Snow” and/or Ice Pellets?

A

100% Type IV, take off must occur 5 minutes after application and “cleaned” aircraft due to fluid.

36
Q

What de-icing fluid is NOT authorized for AA mainline aircraft ?

A

Type III is not authorized for mainline aircraft.

It is designed for aircraft with low rotation
speeds like regional express aircraft.

37
Q

What is MTOW ?

A

This is the maximum weight
for the conditions (CONF and APU configuration) specified.

Note: It may be possible to obtain a heavier maximum weight by
changing the flap configuration or APU ON.

38
Q

Crews should double check and verify that any TAKEOFF Alternate from Dispatch is within approximately ________ NM from their departure airport.

-asked at Recurrent 12-2023

A

Approx 360 Nautical Miles

39
Q

“Cat 2 or 3” in FMA during ILS means the autopilot can be used all the way down to ______ Feet AFE

-asked at Recurrent 12-2023

A

80 Feet

40
Q

CAT3 SINGLE RVR minimums are….

-asked at Recurrent 12-2023

A

600 / 400 / 300 (roll-out)

41
Q

CAT3 DUAL RVR minimums are….

-asked at Recurrent 12-2023

A

300 / 300 / 300

42
Q

What are the FO takeoff visibility minimums? Below these, the Captain must perform the takeoff:

-asked at Recurrent 12-2023

A

1600 RVR

or 1/4 statute mile visibility

This is what the FAA has determined is required to perform “My Aircraft” transfer of control in the event of a reject or emergency situation. (Visibility for Captain)

43
Q

What is “balanced field” ?

A

when the accelerate-stop distance is equal to the accelerate-go distance

44
Q

What are “First CREW flight of the Day” Items

A

First Crew Flight. The first time a crew flies a particular aircraft without
interruption (e.g., crew change, RON, etc.) regardless of how many times that
aircraft or crew has previously flown.

Both crew- AML Review

Preflight (or if unobserved Maintenance performed)

Origination Flow

Oxygen Check

Full IRS Alignment

45
Q

Icing Conditions - AA definition

A

18.5.1 Definition of Icing Conditions▲
— OAT (on the ground and for takeoff) or TAT (inflight) is 10°C or below, and
— visible moisture in any form is present such as clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet and ice crystals, or
— when operating on ramps, taxiways, or runways where surface snow, ice, standing water, or slush may be ingested by engines, freeze on engines, nacelles, or engine sensor probes.

46
Q

Reasons to execute missed approach

A
47
Q

Landing at nearest suitable airport when….

A

A landing will be made at the nearest suitable airport when:
• non-normal checklist includes a statement to land at the nearest suitable airport
or LAND ASAP
• only one AC power source is available
• only one hydraulic source is available
• smoke/fire which cannot immediately and positively be determined to be
eliminated/extinguished
• any situation the crew feels makes safety of continuing the flight questionable

48
Q

RED Land ASAP =

A

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.

This would include consideration of the nearest destination, adequate or emergency airports.

Note: Red LAND ASAP information is applicable to a time-critical situation.

“Land it now” whether jet bridges exist, AA station exists, or not. On fire, etc situation

49
Q

Amber Land ASAP means….

A

If amber LAND ASAP is part of the procedure, consider landing at the nearest
suitable (destination or adequate) airport
