Regulations/SOP/FOM Flashcards
MINIMUM FUEL AND EMERGENCY FUEL
Min Fuel - any change to the current clearance of flying to that airport may cause the usable fuel onboard at landing less than the planned final reserve fuel
Final Reserve Fuel: Fuel remaining is enough for 30 mins at 450m at holding speed after arriving at destination
Emergency Fuel - fuel remaining onboard required to fly to a nearest suitable airport where a safe landing can be made is estimated to be less that the planned final reserve fuel
OVERWEIGHT LANDING CONDITIONS
Uncontrollable Fire/Smoke
Severe Airframe damage
Damage to nav or com that affects appr and landing
Bomb or threat to safety
Emergency medical event to passenger or crew
Procedure requiring Land “ASAP”
Immediate landing required by ATC
Immediate landing for safety threat or other emergency situation
50% loss of thrust
When to select PACKs On after a PACKs Off takeoff?
- Pack 1 On after CLB thrust reduction
- Pack 2 On after flap retraction or 10s after selecting Pack 1 On
Thunderstorm Avoidance
- circumnavigate any area with 60% coverage
- separation of 5nm @ 10,000 ft
- separation of 7.5nm @ 20,000 ft
- separation of 10nm @ 30,000 ft
- twice the above when flying through two CBs*
- 3nm during takeoff and landing
Stabilized Approach
- On correct flight path
- correct landing configuration
- correct power setting
- descent rate no more than 1000 FPM (unless briefed)
- briefings and checklist complete
- stabilized by 1000ft (IMC) or 500ft (VMC)
- target speed +10 kts
- land within touchdown zone (first 3000’ or 1/3 of runway)
- For ILS
- 1 dot of G/S and LOC
Cabin Depressurization Callouts
Before emergency descent: “ATTENTION CREW, EMERGENCY DESCENT”. (Give 10s to prepare cabin)
After reaching safe Altitude: “ATTENTION CABIN CREW, SAFE ALTITUDE”
Crew Incapacitation callout
Incapacitation detected: “ATTENTION XXX, XXX INCAPACITATED, PLEASE COME TO COCKPIT”
Forced Landing (ditching callouts)
At 2000’: “BRACE FOR IMPACT”
At 500’: “IMPACT”
Rejected Takeoff (or after forced landing/ditching) callouts
Aircraft comes to a complete stop: “CABIN CREW ALL AT STATIONS”
Emergency evacuation not required: “CABIN CREW REMAIN SEATED”
Emergency evacuation required: “EVACUATE, EVACUATE”
Low Visibility Takeoff Minima
Higher of:
- Chart Published Airport Minima
- For A320: TDZRVR 200m, MIDRVR 200m
- For A321: TDZRVR 250m, MIDRVR 250m; or TDZRVR 200m, MIDRVR 200m, STOPENDRVR 200m
Emergency Descent and Altitude Change in RVSM
- turn right 30° from current heading
- proceed on new heading for 20 km (5.4 nm offset)
- parallel new route for climbing or descending
- contact and alert aircraft on current freq and 121.5
- turn on all exterior lights
What do you do if Electrical power supply is interrupted during the start sequence?
- abort the start by setting to OFF the ENG MASTER 2 lever
- perform a 30 s dry crank
Runway Light requirement for LVTO
- High intensity runway lights (HIRL)
- Runway centerline lights (RCLL) with intervals of no more than 15 meters
- Runway End Lights for night operations
When is an engine considered secure?
‐ “ENG MASTER OFF” for an engine failure without damage
‐ “AGENT 1 DISCH” for an engine failure with damage
‐ Fire extinguished or “AGENT 2 DISCH” for an engine fire
What is contingency fuel?
10% of required trip fuel, but in no case less than fuel required to fly for 15 minutes at holding speed under standard conditions at a height of 450 meters (1500 feet) above the destination airport
