Question 5

Maximum Wind for Passenger Door Operation

Answer 5

65kts

Question 6

Maximum Wind for Cargo Door Operation

Answer 6

40kts/50kts If the aircraft nose is oriented into the wind, or if the cargo door is on the leeward side of the aircraft, operation of the cargo door is permitted in winds up to 50kts. If wind speed begins to exceed these limitations, the cargo door must be closed before the wind speed exceeds 65kts.

Answer 22

ROLLOUT/Taxi Speed

Question 23

AUTOLAND REQUIRED when…

Answer 23

Autoland is required below CAT I minimums If reported visibility/RVR is at or below 1/2 mile or 2400 RVR setup, brief, and fly CAT II or CAT III autoland approach (If all requirements are met).

Question 24

Maximum TAKEOFF and GO-AROUND thrust limitation

Answer 24

All Engines: 5 min One Engine Inop: 10 min

Question 25

Minimum Engine Oil Quantity

Answer 25

CEO aircraft: 9.5 qt + .5 qt per every hour of EFT
NEO aircraft: 9.0 qt + .5 qt per every hour of EFT and not below 10.6 qt

For NEO aircraft, if the engines have shut down for more than 60 minutes, decrease the required quantities from above by 3 qt to account for oil thermal expansion.

Question 26

Takeoff at reduced thrust is prohibited:

Answer 26

• on slippery or contaminated runways - when suspected, reported, or known wind shear is present - when a Special Departure Procedure specifies full thrust for takeoff

Question 27

Takeoff with Center Tank Fuel

Answer 27

Takeoff with center tank fuel supplying the engines is PROHIBITED

Question 28

Takeoff in moderate and heavy freezing rain

Answer 28

is PROHIBITED

Icing Conditions (Definition)

Answer 29

OAT (on ground) or TAT (in flight) is at or below 10C, and there is visible moisture in the air or standing water, slush, ice, or snow is present on the taxiways or runways.

Question 30

Slippery taxiway/runway (Definition)

Answer 30

One that is more slippery than just a wet surface. This occurs as a result of freezing rain and/or freezing temperatures.

Question 31

Minimum Oil Temperature before Takeoff

Answer 31

19º C

Question 32
