737 Oral Prep notes Flashcards
What is Method 1 as it relates to flight planning?
If planned takeoff gross weight allows - Positive net climb gradient capability a minimum 1000 feet above the terrain along the flight path route.
What is Method 2 as it relates to flight planning?
When Method 1 won’t work, Sabre uses method 2. Sabre determines the terrain critical areas along the route. Calculates drift down performance and compares this to route.
Provide 2000 feet terrain separation.
3 escape routes. Simple, Route Direct and Direct to a pre-defined routing.
Simple - turn off route in shortest distance to alternate airport
Route direct- proceed along route to specific waypoint or reverse direction and proceed to along FP route to specific route waypoint then fly direct to alternate airport
Pre-defined routing - turn off flight plan route in shortest direction to proceed direct to the specific waypoint then proceed via the pre-defined touting to the alternate airport.
Calculate non normal landing distance. What chapter is it in?
Chapter 5
When / why do we declare emergencies?
When in doubt, declare. General rule of thumb:
Less than 30 minutes of fuel Critical system redundancy is lost Inflight Engine failure or shutdown Engine, APU, cargo or wheel well fire Smoke or fire on board Emergency descent Anytime cabin is prepared for evacuation Non-normal situation that increases pilot workload during critical phases of flight
How do you enter a CP point in the Jeppesen app?
Open Jeppesen. Go to route screen. Click and hold. Then type In coordinates and name it appropriately
Winter Ops and De Icing
Read FCM chapter 4 section 10 -Adverse Weather Operations
Read FOM Chapter 7.30 Adverse Weather
Flight plan
Study FOM Ch4.
What are the Stabilized approach gates?
Plan - 1500 feet
Gear Down, Airspeed 180 or less
Report - 1000 feet Final gear configuration Landing checklist complete Airspeed +15 and -5 it’s of target On lateral profile Vertical profile +-300 FPM not to exceed 1200fpm and +- 1 degree
Reject - 500 feet
Except for momentary airspeed and descent rate deviations, PM will direct a go-around and announce the out-of-tolerance parameter.
