|
What are the three symptoms of uncommanded autofeather? |
- NP decreases to or near zero - While above is occurring, TQ briefly peaks and then drops to zero - NH drops to around 73% and remains steady |
|
If destination weather conditions are below the published approach minima intended to be used, what do you need to depart? |
- one alternate that is equal to 1000' above MDA, 5km or 2km above the published minima OR - Two aerodromes that are equal to 600' or 200' above DA, 3km or 1km above minima/ 8,2,4,1.5 |
|
What comes first in ANS cycle, FMA check or configuration check? |
FMA check |
|
What is NH? |
High pressure spool rotation speed |
|
What is the wind factor on normal landings? And up to a maximum of what? |
1/3 of the headwind OR all of the gust (15g25 is a gust factor of 10)
(whichever figure is higher)
Up to a maximum of 15 knots (applies for both 1/3 and all of the gust) |
|
What is the relationship between SE Vapp and VGA? |
SE Vapp must be greater than VGA |
|
How do you find the nearest airport in the FMS? |
Press DTO three times |
|
What type of engines does the atr have? |
Pratt and Whitney 127 |
|
Definitition of ITT? |
Inter turbine temperature |
|
What important warnings are inhibited when alert inhibition is active? |
When alert inhibition is active, all OIL and SMOKE warnings are inhibited
(this means if you have smoke you won't be warned about it until the main gear is up or RCL pb is pressed) |
|
When does the MC FUEL MISMATCH trigger? (kg limit and time trigger) |
When the difference between the FMS and FCU is greater than 200kg for 60 seconds in flight (and 10 seconds on the ground) |
|
At what speed does the antiskid start working? |
Above 10kts |
|
When is the stick pusher inhibited? |
- on the ground (duh) - 10 seconds after lift off - if radio altimeter is operative, when the aircraft descends below 500' |
|
What circuit breaker cannot be reengaged? |
Fuel pumps |
|
How many degrees of arc do you need to fly for it to equal half the arcs radius? |
30° (from CTC, 30° of arc is equal to half the arcs radius) (rule of thumb) |
|
How many knots do we lose per mile when slowing down? |
10kts |
|
Minimum angle of bank during a missed approach? |
15° |
|
What happens at a bleed overheat or a bleed leak detection? |
The affected bleed valve will close automatically, and then the associated pack valve will close due to lack of air supply |
|
When landing on one engine, what wind direction will make it harder? |
Wind from the same side as the live engine |
|
Is a TEMPO with fog forecast below landing minima considered below landing minima? |
Yes |
|
When must a departure alternate be nominated? |
If the weather at the departure aerdome is below the landing minima |
|
What requirements must departure alternates meet?
(weather and time) |
- be within one hour flight time at singe engine cruise speed - meet the usual precision and non precision approach minima (6.2.3.1/8.2.4.1,5)
(only one alternate aerdome that meets these requirements is required) |
|
How is the aircraft configured for circling prior to MDA and what checklists are done? |
- Flaps 15° and gear down - before landing checklist complete except for flaps 30° (so leave the checklist open) |
|
What speed does the FCOM say to set before MDA on a circling approach? |
Speed manual 135kts |
|
When should you set Vapp on a circling approach? |
Final |
|
How do you calculate the timing from abeam the threshold on a circling approach? |
30 seconds +/- 1 second per knot of headwind or tailwind |
|
Around what torque is recommended when you break off a circling approach at MDA? |
40% |
|
What are the ground indications of windshear? (it doesn't involve fluctuations) |
- unusual lack of acceleration while rolling -unusual time to reach V1/VR
|
|
What are the indications of windshear in flight? (eight things) |
- IAS variations of 15kts - groundspeed variations - vertical speed excursions of 500'/min or more - pitch attitude excursions of 5° or more - glideslope deviation of one dot or more - heading variations of 10 degree or more - unusual power lever activity or unusual power lever position for a significant period of time - combination of the above |
|
If risk of windshear is expected how do you calculate V1, VR and V2? |
Calculate them based on the maximum limiting take off weight |
|
What do you do if windshear is encountered at take off? When do we return to a normal climb? |
- pitch 10° (stick shaker may be triggered, if it is reduce pitch slightly to stop it) - increase power as required (ramp or wall may be required) - hold above until out of windshear conditions - LDG GEAR keep whatever configuration you have - flaps keep configured
Return to normal climb when you have a positive rate of climb on the altimeter and vsi |
|
