Takeoff Engine Failure Flashcards
Where is an excellent guide on how do handle an engine inoperative takeoff?
Collections- “Engine Inop Takeoff - 747”
What is the main difference between a normal takeoff, and a V1 cut?
Aside from more rudder being needed, they are mostly the same. The only difference is the initial pitch is about 2-3 degrees lower than normal all engine pitch attitude after rotation. The rate of rotation is also slower.
What does the flight director pitch for during the initial climb after rotation, following an engine failure?
V2. Or the existing speed to a maximum of V2+10
When should you begin calling for checklists and such after a V1 cut?
No sooner than 1,000’ AFE
When does VNAV automatically set the reference thrust at CON during one engine inoperative flap retraction?
When flaps are up, and speed is greater than VREF30 + 98 knots
What is the target speed after flap retraction after an engine failure on takeoff?
VREF + 100 knots
When do you verify continuous thrust, and call “Select ENG OUT” ? (Following an engine failure on takeoff)
At flaps 5 on the climb
How can you get maximum continuous thrust if you see it is not selected?
THR switch
If you have a reduced thrust setting for takeoff (ATM, fixed derate, or combined), is it OK to advance the thrust levers to the full rated thrust?
It depends-
ATM only: Yes, its OK to advance the thrust levers for more performance
Fixed derate: Not allowed, may lose control (VMCG/VMCA based on fixed derate)
Combined ATM + fixed derate: Not allowed, may lose control (VMCG/VMCA based on fixed derate, no way of knowing where ATM ends and fixed derate begins)
When should you call for the NNC on a V1 cut?
AFTER flaps 5, and you’ve already verified CON and called “Select ENG OUT,” …after that, call for NNC.
Can autothrottle work for one engine inop
?
Can autothrottle work for one engine inop?
Yes, just make sure the autopilot is engaged and yaw is controlled manually with rudder pedals
When does the PM notify ATC after a V1 cut?
Usually at 400’ (PAN PAN PAN if engine flameout, MAYDAY MADAY MAYDAY if engine fire)
As PF, you keep the aircraft under control throughout the V1 cut. Turn on the AP once in trim and above 250’, select HDG at 400’. Then what?
At acceleration height, NAVIGATE first. Make sure you’re flying the EFP. Then say “Status.” PM will say “Engine severe damage number 1” (for example), then you say “confirmed.” Then call for “immediate action items” if there are any. Otherwise wait for flap retraction and say “Select ENG OUT” then call for the NNC.
On a V1 cut, what does the PM callout when there is an engine failure?
“Engine Failure”
