Question 1

what is Vmcg?

Answer 1

Ground minimum control speed 88 kias

Question 2

what is Vmcg parameters? when an engine is failed

Answer 2

when an engine is failed, it is possible to maintain directional control using only primary aerodynamic controls without deviating more than 25 feet laterally with all three wheels on the runway

Determined by
- engine at takeoff thrust
- Most unfavorable cg
- Trimmed for TO w/o exceeding 180 lbs of rudder force by pilot with rudder boost

Answer 3

crosswind and RCR

Question 4

what is Vcefs?

Answer 4

Critical engine failure speed is defined as the speed at which one engine can fail and the same distance is required to either continue to accelerate to lift-off speed or to abort and decelerate to a full stop.

Question 5

what is the definition of S1?

Answer 5

S1 is the go no-go speed. It is defined as being greater than or equal to the highest of Vmcg and CEFS not to exceed the lowest of Vref, vbmax and vrot

Vbmax

and Vrot.

Question 6

is the s1 is higher than the lowest of refusal speed rotation speed or max breaking speed what must be done?

Answer 6

Take off weight must be reduced

Question 7

what is Vb?

Answer 7

max breaking speed. speed where A/C can be brought to stop without exceeding max brake energy limit (14.8 million foot pounds)

Question 8

what is refusal speed?

Answer 8

Vr. maximum speed that can be attained, with normal acceleration, from which a stop may be completed within the available runway length

Question 9

refusal speed is compared with ____________ _____________ ____________ __________ and ____________ ___________ in determining s1

Answer 9

ground minimum control
speed rotation speed

Question 10

What happens to refusal speed when there is a wet runway environment?

Answer 10

Refusal speed is decreased due to reduced braking effectiveness.

Question 11

When are you required to accomplish an acceleration check?

Answer 11

When S1 does not equal VROT. The check must be accomplished at least 10 KIAS below S1

Question 12

Where can the takeoff acceleration chart be found?

Answer 12

TO 1T-1A-1CL-1 or Section 3 of the TO 1T-1A-1-1

Question 13

what are the different brake modes?

Answer 13

manual
power brake mode
anti skid power brake mode
emergency brake

Question 14

what is manual mode breaking?

Answer 14

Normal hydraulic pressure is not available, have to pump the brakes to get pressure.

Question 15

what is power brake mode?

Answer 15

Normal hydraulic pressure available, will operate with or without anti-skid system

Question 16

what is anti skid power brake mode Power brake mode plus an electronic anti- skid system to maximize braking efficiency and prevent skidding

Answer 16

Power brake mode plus an electronic anti- skid system to maximize braking efficiency and prevent skidding

Question 17

what is emergency braking? P

Answer 17

Powered by stored nitrogen pressure

Question 18

Where do you find the chart on brake energy limitations?

Answer 18

section V of the dash 1

Question 19

What occurs at 8.1 million foot-pounds of brake energy?

Answer 19

Thermal fuse plugs may release, resulting in flat tires.

Question 20

What occurs at 14.8 million foot-pounds of brake energy?

Answer 20

Brake damage or failure may occur.

Question 21

How much energy is absorbed by the brakes per mile of taxi assuming flat surface?

Answer 21

up to 0.5 million foot-pounds

Question 22

How much energy is absorbed by the brakes per mile of taxi with a downhill grade?

Answer 22

Up to 2.0 million foot-pounds.

Question 23

What is the most likely cause of nose wheel steering failure and what should you do?

Answer 23

The torque link pin is not installed. STOP!

Question 24

In what instances would you abort a takeoff?

Answer 24

If the acceleration check fails or any system emergency affecting safety of flight is experienced prior to S1 speed

Question 25

What are the steps to abort a takeoff?

Answer 25

Throttles - IDLE Wheel brakes - As required speed brakes - EXT

Question 26

After roll-out from an abort what should you do?

Answer 26

Determine the reason for the abort and take necessary action. Check brake energy (if required) and accomplish the AFTER LANDING checklist. If the emergency is serious, evacuate the aircraft (emergency ground egress). Pilot judgment will determine the sequence of actions to be taken after an aborted takeoff. ## Footnote evacuate the aircraft (emergency ground egress). Pilot judgment will determine the sequence of actions to be taken after an aborted takeoff.

Question 27

If runway length is insufficient during an abort, how should you engage the MA-1A type barrier?

Answer 27

Attempt to decelerate as much as possible and attempt to engage the barrier perpendicular and in the middle half at the slowest speed possible

Question 28

If a malfunction in the anti-skid system occurs with an associated loss of brakes, immediately do what?

Answer 28

Place the anti-skid switch to the off position and attempt braking from both the pilot's and copilot's position. If braking is not restored, use the emergency brake system ## Footnote use the emergency brake system

Question 29

How many emergency brake applications are available with full nitrogen?

Answer 29

7-10

Question 30

Is it necessary to extend the speed brakes during an abort situation? Why?

Answer 30

Yes. It allows for the maximum amount of weight possible to be on the main gear to enhance braking efficiency.

Question 31

In addition to extending the speed brakes during an abort, what else should you ensure to maintain weight on the main wheels?

Answer 31

Ensure yoke is in the neutral position

Question 32

What happens to the brakes when they reach 430 F?

Answer 32

The thermal fused screws soften and blow out, releasing the air pressure in the tires.

Question 33

Before a second takeoff is attempted (following an abort), the possibility of a second refused takeoff must be considered.

Answer 33

The cumulative effect of two refused takeoffs may exceed the brake energy limits causing tire explosion and fire, endangering the crew and aircraft ## Footnote endangering the crew and aircraft

Question 34

What should you do if you expect hot brakes?

Answer 34

Notify ground, taxi to the hot brakes area and park the aircraft facing the wind. Do not taxi more than is necessary to clear the active runway. The aircraft should not be maneuvered into a crowded parking area. Do not set the parking brake. Do not approach the overheated brakes for one-half hour. Only approach from the front or rear.

Question 35

What physically happens when we get hot brakes in the T1?

Answer 35

The thermal fuse screws soften and blow out releasing air pressure in the tires. The rotors and the pads may start to melt together as well. The brakes will need to be changed.

Question 36

What happens when brake failure occurs?

Answer 36

The brakes mechanically fail and the aircraft will not have a means of stopping
