Technical Flashcards
‘TA Only’ mode is enabled automatically:
below 1,000ft RA when TA/RA mode is selected.
A fast realignment should be complete in:
30 seconds
A flight is aborted shortly after takeoff and prepares to return to the departure airfield. The OFF SCHED DESCENT light illuminates. On the pressurization panel crew must:
take no action - the auto abort capability programs cabin to land at takeoff field elevation
A fluid leak develops in System A electric pump.
Fluid quantity in System A reservoir decreases to zero and all System A pressure is lost.
A fuel CONFIG alert is extinguished if:
Centre tank quantity less than 363kgs
A fuel CONFIG Alert remains displayed until:
Centre fuel tank quantity less than 363 kgs
A hot air leak is detected in the APU bleed air ducting. This is indicated on the forward overhead panel by
left (1) WING-BODY OVERHEAT light
A leak develops in the System A electric-driven pump; how does this affect the operation of the PTU?
The PTU will not function as all system pressure is lost
A leak in standby hydraulic system will cause system B fluid indication decrease, to approximately:
0.72
A leak occurs in the standby system - which statement is correct?
The LOW QUANTITY light will illuminate when the standby reservoir is approx half empty, the standby reservoir quantity will decrease to zero and the system B reservoir level will decrease to approx 72%
A Mach Trim System provides speed stability at airspeeds above:
Mach .615
A magenta bug on the vertical speed indicator display on the PFD indicates:
the speed selected in the MCP vertical speed window with V/S pitch mode engaged
A pack light illuminates, it does not extinguish on reset of the master caution recall. What could have been the cause of the alert?
A dual pack failure in which the pack will continue to operate until excessive temperature is sensed.
A single detector loop for an engine fails and the related OVHT/DET switch in the aft electronic panel is in the NORMAL position. What flight indications can you expect?
There is no flight deck indication of single loop failure with the OVHT/DET switch in NORMAL.
A TA symbol showing on the Navigation Display (ND) has, alongside it, a down arrow and ‘- 07’. This means:
The traffic is descending at minimum 500fpm.
A TA symbol showing on the ND has, alongside it, a down arrow and ‘- 07’. This means:
The traffic is descending at minimum 500fpm
Above 37,000 feet the pressurization controller maintains a pressure differential of:
8.35psid
Activated at 14,000 feet the passenger oxygen masks drop down from the stowage:
Pulling one mask down will activate all masks in that unit.
AFDS is engaged in Altitude hold and heading select. If the heading select switch on the MCP was pushed what would the FMAs d isplay?
MCP SPD/CWS R (in amber, below the FMA)/ALT HOLD.
After a flight director take off in TO/GA mode, using LNAV, what FMAs occur if the autopilot is engaged during the climb and above thrust reduction altitude?
N1/LNAV/MCP SPD
After a normal takeoff which F/D pitch command can you expect?
V2 plus 20kts
After a normal takeoff which pitch command can you expect?
V2 to V2+20kts
After a steady cruise at FL 370 you climb to FL 390 and reset the FLT ALT in the pressurization panel accordingly. What would you expect the cabin rate of climb indicator to indicate during the climb?
It will indicate a descent due to a scheduled change in differential pressure from 7.8 psi to 8.35 psi when selecting a FLT ALT above FL 370.
After autobraking has started, what pilot actions disarm the autobrake system immediately and illuminate the AUTO BRAKE DISARM light?:
All of the above.
