Departure Flashcards
(38 cards)
What is the biggest threat during takeoff?
Tail strike and slower rotation
Additional threats include reduced crosswind limits on wet runways.
How is flap retraction managed during takeoff?
Above the white bug, ask for F15, then above F15 ask for F5, followed by standard TO retraction.
What are the threats of a no bleeds takeoff?
Non-normal configuration sequence and potential forgetting to set up the panel after takeoff.
What happens if a no bleeds takeoff is uncaught at ten checks?
An aural warning for cabin pressurization will activate.
What actions should be taken in a rapid depressurization?
- Don oxygen masks
- Establish communication
- Set pressurization mode selector to manual
- Hold outflow valve in close
- If uncontrollable, pass seats on and oxygen on.
What are the steps for emergency descent after depressurization?
- PF advises cabin
- PM advises ATC and requests QNH
- Pass sign ON
- Without delay, descend to 10,000 or MSA
- Engine Start Switches ON
- Thrust Levers reduce to minimum needed
- Speed brake to flight detent
- Target Mmo/Vmo.
What is the minimum visibility required for a low visibility takeoff?
125m with 6 intervals between 7 lights of 15m separation.
What should be done if takeoff IAS disagrees?
Smoothly rotate to 15º pitch attitude, retract gear, and maintain flap configuration.
What considerations are there for OAT -2 and 300m RVR?
Freezing fog and mandatory de/anti icing.
What should be done if there is a configuration warning before 80 knots?
Rejected Take-Off and call maintrol for ASR.
What is the action for a master caution door at 100 knots?
Continue with take-off.
What does it indicate if N1 fluctuates at 400 feet?
Engine limit, surge, or stall.
What is the maximum slush depth on the runway for takeoff?
15mm; takeoff and landing prohibited above this.
What actions are required if AOA disagrees after takeoff at 600ft?
Revert to Airspeed Unreliable NNC and perform memory items.
How long must you wait when lined up behind a heavy aircraft?
2 minutes.
What is the wait time when departing behind a heavy aircraft from an intersection?
3 minutes.
What should be done in case of a bird strike during takeoff?
- Monitor vibrations and EGT
- Declare a Pan Pan
- Limit thrust on affected engine.
What to do if IAS disagrees on rotation?
Refer to the Flight with Unreliable Airspeed table.
What are the considerations for a departure in freezing fog?
Mandatory de/anti icing and a minimum of 24K no ATRT.
What should be done if birds are present on departure?
- Wait
- Inform ATC
- Review OEI/loss of both engines’ procedures.
What is the required bank angle for EOSID?
15º bank angle until V2+20kts.
What are the planning requirements for alternates Belfast and Shannon?
- Belfast: Type A (>=250’)
- Shannon: Type B (<250’; >=200’)
- Ensure weather conditions meet approach requirements.
What should be done if a window is open during the takeoff roll?
Continue with the takeoff and close the window when airborne.
What is the action for a master caution regarding doors at 70/90 knots?
Continue with take-off.
