Q

How do the crew emergency doors operate as a normal and emergency exit

A

NORMAL - The crew will disarm the door to open, then swing the handle AFT. SP.1.1
The door can be opened from the outside regardless of arm or disarm position.
A vent prevents pressurization if not closed properly and releases differential pressure when opened

NON-NORMAL - The handle is swung aft activation the Emerg. Power assist System. The door electronically opened and the slide will inflate.

Q

What is the normal position (Preflight) of the Flight Deck EMER LIGHTS switch

A

ARMED

18
Q

When do EMER LIGHTS automatically illuminate

A
  • Electrical DC power fails
  • Opening an ARMED door, causes exterior and interior lights at the door location to illuminate
19
Q

How are EMER LIGHTS powered

A
  • Remote batteries
  • 15mins duration
20
Q

How are EMER LIGHTS batteries maintained

A

Airplane electrical system

21
Q

How do SEAT BELTS signs function in AUTO

A
  • Landing gear not up and locked
  • Flap lever not up
  • Airplane altitude below 10,000ft
22
Q

Can SEAT BELTS lights illuminate regardless of switch position

A

Yes.
- Cabin altitude above 10,000ft
- Supernumerary Oxygen ON

23
Q

What causes the supernumerary oxygen system to activate

A
  • Switch selected to ON
  • Automatically if cabin altitude exceeds 13,500ft
24
Q

A

4,880nm

CPAT a/c overview Part 1

25
Q

How many air carts can be connected to the aircraft

A

Three

26
Q

What information is provided by the ADIRS

A

Altitude
Airspeed
Attitude
Heading
Position
To the Displays, FMS, Flight Controls, Engine Controls and other systems

27
Q

What are major components make up the ADIRS

A

Air Data Inertial Reference Unit
Secondary Attitude and Air Data Reference Unit
Air Data Modulators

28
Q

What powers the ADIRIU

A

Battery Bus, back up power from the Hot Battery Bus

29
Q

What indications the ADIRU is on the Hot Battery Bus

A

ON BATT next to ADIRU switch

Horn from nose wheel landing gear

30
Q

What are the ADIRU alignment and realignment modes

A

Alignment mode, when selected and position data is entered into the CDU.

Automatic alignment, if the aircraft stops for a period of time the system automatically enters an automatic alignment to reset velocity and acceleration errors.

31
Q

How long does ADIRU alignment take

A

6-15 minutes pending latitude.

Averages 10 minutes

32
Q

How often is an ADIRU alignment recommended

A

Every 24 hours

33
Q

What supplies critical information on flight data for displays, flight controls and other systems if ADIRU fails

A

SAARU

34
Q

What information does the SAARU provide

A

Altitude
Airspeed
Attitude
Heading, must be manually inputed to the CDU based of the magnetic compass (Standby Flight Instrument??)

35
Q

What air source is used by the ADIRU and SAARU

A

Left, center and right pitot static system

36
Q

When does the FMC transition to “on approach mode”

A
  • The aircraft on descent with flaps out of UP
  • The aircraft has sequenced the first waypoint of the active approach
  • Aircraft on direct-to or intercept waypoint and the distance is less than 12nm
  • The MaP is the active waypoint with less than 25nm to go
37
Q

When does the FMC transition out of “on approach” mode

A
  • TO/GA is selected
  • The aircraft lands
  • The aircraft flies beyond the last waypoint of the approach or missed approach
38
Q

What is available in “on approach” mode

A
  • Speed window is available, VNAV PTH remains, VNAV commands set speed.
  • MCP ALT can be set above the current altitude for MAP. Must be >300ft above
  • VNAV PTH remains unless within 5kts current flap speed and the a/c rises 150ft above path. then VNAV SPD.
  • VNAV PTH provides guidance at the glide path angle of the approach. Will command level segments as required to intercept the angle displayed on the LEGS page.
39
Q

What is RNP and ANP

A

Required Navigation Performance and Actual Navigation Performance.
Displayed at the bottom center of the ND.
Required is the listed nav tolerance for the airspace required 95% of the time, actual is what is being achieved 95% of the time.
RNP 0.3 approach, RNP 1.0 arrival/departure, RNP2 enroute, RNP4 enroute oceanicetc.

40
Q

What FMC features/function support conduct of a missed approach

A
  • LNAV automatically engages above 50RA, above 200RA autopilot can be engaged
  • VNAV can be engaged above 400RA
  • All descent altitude constraints are deleted, waypoints remain
  • The highest altitude of the missed approach becomes the cruise altitude
  • FMC transitions from active descent to active climb w/ climb and flap retraction, TO/GA not required)
  • AFDS flies the published missed approach
