To prevent structural damage to the airplane the landing gear must be retracted only in the case of
an emergency that requires climb performance improvement

message, the priority order to be evaluated is:
WARNING messages
ELECTRICAL BUSSES and then
MAU (Modular Avionics Unit)
What ADS reversionary logic does the F.O. system follow? AOM V2 14 - 09 - 10 P4
Normal is ADS 2 1st Reversion is ADS 3 2nd Reversion is ADS 1
Is it possible to get a FUEL LO LEVEL warning with fuel in the tanks? AOM V2 14 - 10 - 10 P10
Yes. If any
scavenge pump stops transferring to the collector box. The fuel contained in the collector
box flows out so that the fuel level inside the collector box and the rest of the tank reach the same
level or High pitch or High bank angle.
If a cruise altitude of FL380 is entered into the FMS, but the aircraft is cruising at a lower level, what is happening? AOM V2 14 - 02 - 20 P4
FMS cruise level set below FL370 7.8PSI is scheduled
FMS cruise level or airplane actually above FL370 pressure differential becomes 8.4 PSI
During ALT mode, how is speed controlled?
SPDt
Speed on Thrust
What happens when the DUMP button is pushed while in manual mode? AOM V2 14 - 02 - 20 P5
The Dump
function is not available in manual mode. However if the associated pushbutton is pushed
in, both RECIRC fan and PACKs are turned off
Which fuel pumps will be powered during an electrical emergency (RAT deployed)? AOM V2 14 - 05 - 10 P3; AOM V2 14 - 05 - 35 P1 6
AC Fuel pump 2A and the DC fuel pump will be available
During a dual engine failure why does the QRH direct the pilot to select Fuel
XFeed selector to LOW 1?
See question above…Fuel pumps AC 2 A and the DC fuel pump. Only 2 pumps going off one tank.
What is VB at FL 210? SOPM 2 - 3.3 V B
(10,000 and above) 270/ .76 M (whichever is lower)
If
the aircraft is cruising at FL250, with 12,000 set in the altitude selector, and

Indicates the driftdown speed when Slat/Flap is UP and the ideal Slat/Flap extension speed for the
current airplane weight
How long will batteries 1&2 provide power on their own? AOM V2 14 - 05 - 15 P2
In an ELECTRICA
L EMERGENCY, batteries are capable to supply airplane essential systems for at
least 10 min, even if the RAT is failed.
What are pilot considerations when STALL PROT ICE SPEED is displayed on EICAS? SOPM 4 - 12.7, QRH
Anytime the EICAS message STALL PROT
ICE SPEEDS is displayed during the approach in normal or
abnormal conditions, the speeds must be adjusted using the ICE ACCRETION table regardless of the
icing condition on landing.
How is VAP calculated? SOPM 4 - 12.7
Target approach speed is VAP
, which is VREF+wind correction

over to LOC when using preview needles upon
capture. T/F
True
Allowances for minor fluctuations on final.
SOPM 4
-
12.7
Below 1000 but Above 500 HAT VMC or IMC:
PM will state deviation, PF will state “correcting” and make proper adjustment. If deviation
is not
corrected, missed approach is mandatory
IMC below at or below 500:
Should any unstabilized condition or EGPWS warning occur, missed approach is mandatory
When shooting a VOR approach with vertical guidance .... SOPM 4 - 12.19

To set the parking brake, first step on the pedals. T/F
FALSE
When establishing power how long do we wait before shutting down the
engines?
Wait 10 seconds after GPU or APU is established
Actually check electric synoptic page or
wait 30 sec after N2 stabilizes.
During your flight, you left the GPU button selected in. Will AC BUS 2 be powered by the GPU?
NO! Both busses will be powered by IDG1, until the GPU button is cycled
When can the post flight inspection be waived?
The correct answer is if the next crew meets you at the plane
