Q

From crew perspective, hot starts generally from?

A

Late recognition and/or delayed action of moving FCS to CUTOFF

<em>with rapidly rising EGT, the FCS must be selected to CUTOFF well in advance (minimum 80 degrees before) red line to avoid </em><em>exceedence</em><em>.</em>

Q

Cold Wx Ops, nose gear steering?

A

Should be exercised in both directions during taxi to circulate warm HYD fluid through system and minimize steering lag.

Q

After landing engine cool down prior to single-engine taxi?

A
  • 3 minutes at idle for GE
  • 5 minutes at idle for PW
17
Q

MAP range for takeoff?

A

10 miles to verify runway then out to view ACTIVE WPT

18
Q

Engine Out Procedure MAP display?

A

Consider use of TERRAIN

19
Q

Danger of takeoff into strong headwinds with regards to autothrottles?

A

May arm THR HOLD before autothrottle can make final thrust adjustments.

20
Q

When does rudder become effective during takeoff roll?

A

Between 40 and 60 knots

21
Q

PM 80KTS CALL (what 3 things?)

A
  • Airspeed Indicators Agree
  • N1 THR SET
  • THR HOLD Engaged
22
Q

Rotation rate? Use of FD for rotation?

A
  • 2.5 degrees/second for approx 5 seconds
    • 15 degree pitch target
      • V2 + 15-25kts

FD Pitch Command is not used for rotation!

Do not follow commands until after liftoff as FD does not command appropriate rate or attitude!

23
Q

F/D Pitch Commands after liftoff?

A

Commands pitch to maintain an airspeed of V2 + 15 to 25 until another pitch mode is engaged.

24
Q

Turns after takeoff?

A
  • VIA = 50’
  • 2ENG = 400’
  • 1ENG = 1000’
25
NADP THR Mode Selection?
NADP1 = THR at 1500' NADP2 = THR at 1000' *"VNAV + C A/P to CMD"*
26
Max Angle vs Max Rate?
FMC provides angle in KTS (VNAV CLB Page). Add 50KTS to FL UP Maneuver for best rate.
27
What is FMC MAX ALTITUDE?
LOWEST OF THE FOLLOWING: * MAX CERTIFIED ALTITUDE * FL431 * THR LIMIT ALTITUDE * Altitude at which sufficient THR avail for climb * BUFFET LIMIT ALTITUDE * Altitude at which specific margin exists prior to buffet onset. Provides 0.2G margin @ 33° bank.
28
What is FMC OPT ALTITUDE?
* Provides MIN COST based on flight length + weight * Provides 1.5g load factor (48° Bank) * Increases as A/C weight decreases in ECON or LRC ***2000' above OPT ALTITUDE will normally allow approx 45°*** ***bank*** ***prior to buffet onset.***
29
Why do we use STEP SIZE 0 in FMC?
Allows for proper fuel and ETA predictions based on OFP. Otherwise, FMC uses calculated step climbs which may exceed OFP planned altitudes.
30
Holding speed below 10,000'
Min FLAPS UP speed will exceed 200kts. Holding with Flaps 1 or 5 will be required. ***Don't break FAA Hold Limit Speed!***
31
How will FMC execute an EXIT HOLD when armed?
It will turn inbound to hold fix as soon as it can cross it wings level and proceed to next waypoint.
32
Two green donuts on EICAS during descent?
Deceleration Points * FIRST POINT * VNAV THR IDLE descent initiated * SECOND POINT * 240KTS/10000'
