Start - Taxi - Takeoff - Climb Flashcards
Preflight
Prior to APU start, wait ______________?
Prior to APU start, wait 15 seconds after the left CCR is online.
Preflight
Left CCR online is indicated by
the Captain’s inboard and lower display unit
showing the default formats
Both pilots will use the HUD (if operative) during all approaches when the visibility is less than
4000 RVR (1200m) or 3/4 mile visibility. The HUD is recommended for all takeoffs and landings.
One pilot must have VSD displayed when
for takeoff, landing and all other flight operations below 10,000 AFL. Use of VSD is recommended for all flight
operations.
Autothrottle Use
Autothrottle use is recommended during all phases of flight. When in manual flight,
autothrottle use is also recommended, however manual thrust control may be used
to maintain pilot proficiency.
Preflight
IRS selectors If already ON,
OFF 30 seconds, then ON.
Verify that the ON BAT Light is extinguished.
Verify that the following are sufficient for flight: • Oxygen Pressure - ETOPS- - Non-ETOPS- • Hydraulic quantity • Engine oil quantity
• Oxygen Pressure
- ETOPS-Minimum bottle pressure is 1250 psi at 70°F
- Non-ETOPS-Minimum pressure is 800psi at 70°F
• Hydraulic quantity
- RF or OF not displayed
• Engine oil quantity
- 20 quarts (min)
The MAIN BATTERY LOW message
The MAIN BATTERY LOW message can show when power is established.
The main battery is charging and when the battery charge is sufficient for
takeoff, the message blanks.
Simultaneous engine start is only allowed when
the APU is running and both
APU starter generators are operational.
Autostart monitors for:
• Loss of both starters
• No N1 Rotation
• No oil pressure rise
If any of these occur, the EEC aborts the autostart and the message ENG AUTOSTART L, R displays.
Autostart corrects for:
- High residual EGT
- Hot start
- No EGT rise
- Loss of one starter
- Start duty cycle exceedance
- Compressor stall
- Hung start
If the EEC is unable to correct for a hung start or compressor stall,
EEC cancels the autostart and the EICAS message ENG AUTOSTART L, R displays.
There is a limit of ___ start attempts on the ground.

Accommodating “Last Minute” Baggage / Cargo
late loading of baggage / cargo will be accomplished with both engines shut down.
Accommodating “Last Minute” Passengers after Engines Start
Shut down both engines prior to boarding passengers.
Authorized flap settings for takeoff are
(-8) 5, 15 or 20.
(-9) 5, 10, 15, 17 or 20.
Before Takeoff
Engine warm up requirements
Engine warm up recommendations:
Engine warm up requirements:
• Engine oil temperature must be above the bottom of the temperature scale.
Engine warm up recommendations:
• Run the engines for at least 3 minutes.
• Use a thrust setting normally used for taxi operations.
Taxi Wind Limits
For taxi with crosswinds greater than 35 knots, limit thrust to 45% N1.
Single Engine Taxi
Single engine taxi prior to takeoff is not authorized except in an emergency.
Normal taxi speed is
approximately 20 knots, adjusted for conditions. On long straight taxi routes, up to 30 knots are acceptable, On a dry surface, approximately 10 knots for turn angles greater than typically required for high speed runway turnoffs.
Carbon Brake Life
Brake wear is primarily dependent upon the number of brake applications. For example, one firm brake application causes less wear than several light
applications.
Takeoff Terrain Display
One pilot shall have Terrain Display selected, unless weather conditions require
both pilots to display weather.
Prior to Low Visibility Takeoffs
Prior to low visibility takeoffs with the HUD (RVR < 500), the Captain will make a
PA in conjunction with the Prepare for Takeoff PA.
HUD Low Visibility Takeoff
General
Lighting
The runway must be CAT III operations.
Use of these procedures is required with less than 500 RVR (150m) on runways supported by 300 RVR (75m) takeoff (see Jepp 10-9A page). Requires any two of
following three transmissometers. All reporting transmissometers are controlling.
• Touchdown: 300 RVR (75m)
• Mid-field: 300 RVR (75m)
• Roll-out: 300 RVR (75m)
• Access to runway requires use of taxiway centerline lighting that meets US orICAO CAT III criteria.
• Operative HIRL.
• Operative runway CL lights.

During Takeoff:
If an engine failure occurs prior to flap retraction
The APU battery is designed to support _____ start attempts.

If the APU fails to start after the second attempt
a 5 minute cooling period must be observed before a third attempt is made.

“STEERING LOCKED OUT” EICAS
When both of the following exist, do an engine run-up to minimize ice build-up:
- OAT is 3°C or below
- visible moisture (clouds, fog with visibility of one statute mile [1600 m] or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals, and so on)
Icing conditions engine run up is
• Run-up to a minimum of 40% N1 for at least 5 seconds duration at intervals no greater than 60 minutes.
• If high engine vibration indications occur, a run-up to 50% N1
may be done.
If takeoff is not completed within __________, manually de-ice the engines before takeoff.
120 minutes total taxi time
If a change in HUD TAKEOFF runway is needed,
select both flight director switches OFF. After the new runway is executed on the CDU,
select the flight director switches back to ON.
For takeoff, set stabilizer trim to
FMC computed value.
When engine anti-ice is required and the OAT is 3°C or below, the takeoff must be preceded by a static engine run-up. Use the following procedure:
Increase thrust to a minimum of 40% N1 up to 55% N1 maximum. Maintain that thrust level for 5 seconds minimum. If high fan vibrations persist, increase thrust to a minimum of 50% N1 up to 55% N1 maximum and maintain that thrust until vibration decreases to below 4 units before proceeding with the takeoff. Confirm stable engine operation prior to final advance to takeoff thrust.
The autopilot must not be engaged below a minimum engage altitude of _____ after takeoff.
