Q

38- Related to the PACKS on B-HSG & B-HSI,

What may causes a Surging Type Noise?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P4

A
  • In Flight, with PACK FLOW to “LO”, the Air Flow from the

Air Conditioning System may Fluctuate, which may causes

a Surging Type Noise

  • To Stop the Fluctuations, Set the PACK FLOW to NORM.

ATC and TCAS are on Standby to Prevent possible Interference to Radar Surveillance Systems.

17
Q

47- What’s the relation between EMER ELEC CONF and RVSM?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P9

A

For RVSM Operations:

  • SYS 1 is Selected if AP 1 is Used
  • SYS 2 is Selected if AP 2 is Used

19
Q

49- What is to be Checked on the Status Page of the MCDU (DATA Key)?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P10

A
  • Engine & Aircraft Type
  • FM Database Validity
20
Q

50- During FMGS Initialisation, What Actions are Required for the IRS POSITION CHECK?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P11

A

On the POSITION MONITOR page, check that:

  • ALL IRS are in NAV mode
  • The distances between IRS and FMS positions are < 5 NM

On ND in ROSE-NAV or ARC Mode check that:

  • The Aircraft Position is consistent with the Position of the

Airport, the SID and the Surrounding NAVAIDs.

21
Q

51- How the Characteristic Speeds displayed on the MCDU (Green Dot, F, S, VLS) are Calculated?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P13

A
  • They are Computed from the ZFW and ZFWCG entered by the Crew on the MCDU

* If ZFW, ZFWCG, and BLOCK FUEL are inserted, the FM

will provide All Predictions, as well as the EXTRA Fuel.

22
Q

52- Why shall we enter the ZFW in INIT B before the RTOW?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P13

A

For the RTOW Calculator to Perform an Automatic

Gross Error Check on the Entered Weights.

23
Q

53- What are the Initial Elements to X-Check when Filling the ACARS?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P15

A
  • Confirm Crew Data Loaded
  • On CAR confirm CFP Edition Number (EDNO) is Current
  • Insert Fuel Figures… etc.
24
Q

54- When Shall the ACTUAL TOW/ZFW be entered?

25
Q

55- What are the Consequences of Engaging Autothrust on Ground (via Pb)?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P16

A

Do Not Engage the Autothrust on Ground, as it May Generate:

  • AUTO FLT A/THR OFF Warning at Engine Start.
26
Q

56- After the check of the Oxygen Masks what does it means to NOT have the REGUL LO PR Message Displayed?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P18

A

It ensures that the LP valve is in Open position

  • Due to Residual Pressure between the LP valve and

the Oxygen Masks a Closed LP Valve may Not be

Detected during the Oxygen Mask Test.

27
Q

57- Where to look if a message is displayed in MAINTENANCE STATUS on the lower ECAM?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 P19

A

On the First Page of the Designated Item’s MEL Section

Refer to:

MEL/MI-00-08.

28
Q

58- When is an ADIRS Fast Realignment Necessary?

A

When the Distance between Each IRS and the FMS

position is > 5 NM.

29
Q

..No Ref..

A
  • An APU Start is Not permitted during a Refuel/Defuel

Procedure IF:
