Q

It is normal practice to couple the autopilot (flight control system) to the ILS for an ILS approach and landing, and the systems are categorised as fail passive or fail operational. To what does this refer? Select one:

a. It determines whether the landing can be made automatically after a failure.
b. A fail passive system becomes a fail operational system when there is an equipment failure in the aeroplane.
c. It indicates the response if the localiser or glide path information becomes unreliable.
d. In a fail passive situation, the pilot will have to consult the MEL before continuing the approach.

A

a. It determines whether the landing can be made automatically after a failure.

fail passive:

A flight control system is fail passive if in the event of a failure there is no significant out of trim condition or deviation of flight path or attitude but the landing is not completed automatically. For a fail-passive flight control system, the pilot ASSUMES CONTROL after failure.

fail operational:

A flight control system is fail-opretaional if, in the event of a failure below alert height the approach flare and landing can be complete automatically in the even of a failure. Page 56 OPS
