tasks assigned
according to accessibility of switch
- Crew coordination – Use of checklists / confirmed actions
- Crew communication – Standard callouts / briefings & terminology / Standard response to order
- Monitor and crosscheck – Scan pattern / instrument monitor during approach / speed and descent rate during approach /
verification of
- autothrottle and autopilot / CDU operation
- Workload management – Fly the airplane / use of auto flight system
- Discipline – Professional manner / intentional deviation from SOP’s dangerous / strict discipline to SOP’s

Planned contingency fuel (PCF) is fuel that the company specifies for various routes and airports that can cause increased fuel
burn, based on statistical results. The amount is specified in the route manual. For planning, it is calculated at estimated landing
weight at the destination at 1500ft. Captain can decide that PCF not necessary.
56
What is contingency fuel, and how is it calculated?
Contingency fuel caters for fuel increase due to variations in wind, temperature, flight level, performance and the use of anti-ice
etc. Contingency fuel is 5% of burn-off fuel, or 15 minutes holding at 1500ft in ISA conditions, whichever is greater. It is
calculated at the estimated landing weight at the destination

For keeping obstacle clearance, descent below MDA should not be made earlier than necessary. The Captain should
maintain MDA as long as possible during circling. The position to descend below the MDA is normally abeam or after the end
of the intended runway end. However, the Captain’s descent plan has precedence over the normal descent position
110
When can the Captain continue an approach below the DH on a CAT II approach?
The Captain can continue the approach below the DH when the following 2 conditions are met. If either condition is not
satisfied, the Captain must execute a missed approach:
1) When the airplane is judged by the Captain to be in a position where a continuous descent to landing on the
intended runway can be made using an appropriate rate of descent and using normal manoeuvres
2) In addition to the ALS crossbar, runway threshold lighting, or touchdown zone lighting, at least one of the
following visual references for the intended runway is visible and identifiable:
- At least 3 consecutive ALS lights (and the crossbar visible)
- Any runway lighting or centreline lighting, or
- Touchdown zone lighting
111

??
115
In Japan, what is meant by the phrase “Minimum Fuel”?
The Captain will report “minimum fuel” to ATC when the fuel has reached a stage where little or no unexpected delay can
be accepted. It is NOT an emergency situation, and priority will NOT be given by ATC
116
What is the minimum required visibility for departure when SSP / LVP are NOT in place?
400m

- Set transponder code 7600
118
Can the Captain ever land overweight?
In an emergency situation, the Captain may land overweight at their discretion in the interest of safety
119
How can the tower communicate to an aircraft that has suffered a communications failure?
Some possible light communications are:
- Steady green = Cleared to land
- Steady red = Give way to other aircraft and continue circling
- Flashing red = Do not land
- Alternating green and red = Exercise extreme caution
120
120. How can an aircraft acknowledge light signals emitted from the control tower during lost communications?
It is day and night dependant:
- Day time = Rock the wings
- Night time = Flash the landing lights on and off twice
121
121. What is the difference in required equipment for the B767 for RNAV 5 operations as opposed to RNAV 1 operations?
RNAV 5 requires the addition of a VOR
122
Is it permissible to operate in class G airspace?
Except in an unavoidable situation such as emergency, IFR operations in class G shall not be conducted. The following are
exempted:

127
When may the Captain restrain a passenger?
The Captain may from the moment when ALL external doors are closed for take-off until the moment any door is opened for
disembarkation after landing adopt measures to restrain a person if he has reasonable grounds to believe that any person on
board an aircraft may impede safety or is about to commit such acts
Civil Aeronautics Law article 73- (4)
128
When must the Captain order an evacuation according to Civil Aeronautics Law?
In the event of danger, or when in their opinion danger is imminent, the Captain must order the passengers to evacuate
Civil Aeronautics Law article 74
129
May the Captain deviate from an ATC clearance in the event of an emergency?
In an emergency requiring immediate action, it may be difficult to comply with an ATC instruction in order to cope with an
emergency. If the Captain must deviate from the provisions of an ATC clearance, the Captain shall promptly notify ATC
130
How has the non-normal landing distance performance data been calculated?
The following basic assumptions are made:
- Threshold speed = BUG + 5
- Touchdown point = 1250ft
- Braking = Full manual braking (except for anti-skid inop, or when exceeding brake energy limits)
- Temperature = 30 degrees (dry and wet) or 0 degrees (snow / ice / slush)
- Pressure altitude = Sea level
131
What level of reverse thrust is used for non-normal landing distance calculations?
The following conditions are taken into account:
- If both reversers are available, they remain at 85% N1 until 70kts
- If one reverser is available, it remains set at idle reverse
- If neither reverser is available, both engines remain set at forward idle
132

2 hours reserves carried
133
Pre-flight, when are 2 alternate airports required?
When the weather conditions at the destination airport are forecast to be below the landing minima intermittently at the
ETA, at least 2 alternates shall be selected. However, if the forecast CIG and VIS indicates at or above 1500ft and 5000m at
the estimated time of arrival of the alternate airport, then other alternate airport is not required
134
How many individual altimeter checks are required prior to and during RVSM operations?
There are 3 separate checks that need to be made on the altimeters. They are as follows:
- On the ground, the maximum difference between the Captain and Co-pilot altimeters is 40ft
- On the ground, the maximum difference between the Captain / Co-pilot altimeter and field elevation is 75ft
- In the air, the maximum allowable difference between the Captain and Co-pilot altimeters is 200ft
135
135. What is the limitation regarding monitoring of raw data during a VOR approach with single FMC operation?

final approach fix
136
136. If given a landing clearance and the wind value increases above the limit, can the landing be continued?
Yes, if the crew judges that the aircraft can land safely.
137
Speed Planning:
✈ ECON climb – most economical weight based on TOW and CI 73 = 250/290/0.78
✈ Max Angle climb – max climb gradient, use flaps up manoeuvring speed/0.77
✈ Max Rate climb – reach cruise AT in minimum time, use flaps up manoeuvring speed +50
✈ High speed climb – used to shorten Block time, use 250/350/0.83
✈ ECON cruise – most economical and functional speed based on CI 73 = 290/0.78
✈ LRC – minimizes BOF, 99% of max range fuel mileage obtained
✈ High speed cruise – used to shorten block time; use 350/0.83
✈ ECON descent – most economical based on CI 73, uses 0.78/290/250
138
Trans-Authority Gradient:
The relative power relationship between crewmembers in the cockpit; not too steep a gradient is most effective, where the
Captain still has command and leads the operation and F/O not too overridden or too commanding.
139
Areas of Responsibility:
✈ PF – MCP, Alternate stab trim, parking brake, speed brake,
✈ PM – overhead panel, stab trim cut out, FCS, fire switches, CANCEL/RECALL switches
✈ Other items are based on position convenience and accessibility
140
Describe the lost communications procedures – Departure, Enroute, Arrival
✈ Route Manual Basic
✈ Listening watch; if receiving ATC instruction, follow them; follow RMB procedures; use the phrase TRANSMITTING BLIND; use
HF if available; SQ 7600
✈ VMC = remain VMC and land at nearest suitable
✈ IFR and above is not practicable or in IMC
Climb/Descent = Last assigned or MEA (higher of) until 7 mins (RADAR) following time reached that altitude or set
SQ7600 (later of); 20 mins (not RADAR) following failure to report at compulsory reporting point.
ROUTE = Proceed on cleared route to last point over destination or commencement point of approach;
Radar Vectors = Proceed to fix instructed as last point of RV or nearest fix towards destination on planned
route/last assigned route.
APPROACH = commence descent from last point over destination without delay if clearance was received, or at
EAT, or ETA last reported to ATC, or when total EET from T/O reached for destination.
HOLDING = if received instructions to hold before failure, commence descent for approach after holding until
EAT, or EFCT, or EET from T/O reached for destination
141
141. What is the relationship between tailwind and pitch angle on final approach?
✈ 5kts of tailwind = 1o reduction in pitch attitude.
142
Discuss RTO policy and high/low speed RTO
“Except for the occurrence of a hindrance where there is a serious doubt that the airplane can safely fly, it is safer to continue
the takeoff than to reject it from a point near V1” – Go Mindedness has become Company Policy.
It is left to the Captain’s best judgement
Other factors to consider…
1. Malfunction that would render airplane unable to fly might be engine failure with thrust loss
2. For other malfunctions in the vicinity of V1, it is safer to continue. Even for EGT exceedance or engine fire, it would be safer to
continue, provided there was no loss of thrust. Any system associated with braking like anti-skid or tire failure is extremely
dangerous re RTO.
3. High speed regime > 80kts. Autobrakes OK, no need to disconnect autothrottle.
4. Low speed regime 30m width, RORS = 60m), runway markings, runway distance markings on the side

When is monitoring of the emergency frequency 121.500MHz required?
✈ Basically for SAR & loss of comms with ATC (not to be confused with comms loss)
✈ Aircraft should guard 121.500MHz except for an “unavoidable situation”. This may be due to:
✈ Aircraft are carrying out communications on the other VHF channel
✈ Cockpit duties do not permit simultaneous guarding of two channels
✈ Airborne equipment limitations do not permit simultaneous guarding of two channels
