Flashcards in Oral Study (FOM) Deck (17):
1
If you loose your medical or airmen cert what must you do
contact crew support for a 72 hour temporary cert
contact FAA within 72 hours to get a temp cert which is good for 60 days
2
How many landings do you need to stay current
and how does SkyWest track this
3 takeoffs and landings within 90 days, SkyWest will split the number of landings between the captain and first officer. Odd numbers of flights will be counted as a captain landing.
Contact crew support to update if this is not the case
(yeah its in there)
this could bite an FO who only does standups, because it will be an odd number each day and they won't get credit for any landings
3
High mins captains
minimums are to be increased by 100' and 1/2 mile
at an alternate do not add this, your mins will be 300 and 1 miles unless published higher
4
Can you takeoff or land at an airport with a missing
Wind report
Visibility report
temp
altimeter
no
alt can be missing if jepp chart lists an alternate
5
Can you takeoff or land with a missing sky condition report (ceiling)
yes, unless a ceiling is specified in the chart procedure
6
How much fuel must you have onboard
enough to fly to
Destination,
then to most distant alternate,
then for 45 more minutes at normal cruising consumption
7
What are the 6 required items on a release
ID of the aircraft
trip or flight number
departure airport, intermediate stops, destination and alternates
type of operation (IFR/VFR)
minimum fuel supply
weather reports forecast or any combo for dest, stops, alt
8
When is a Full aircraft search required
FFOD
A/C from mx hangar
unattended A/C
when unauthorized access has occurred
prohibited or suspicious item found
security seal tampered with
For international flights to or from USA except Canada
9
When must you do a visual inspection and who is responsible to do it
to or from Canada
FA does the cabin
flight crew does the flight deck
10
Can mechanics sit in the jumpseat
yes, but they need specific permission and
Form FO-2 filled out
11
when must headsets be used
18,000 and below unless inop
then both pilots must remove headset and use the speakers
12
Are lighted wands required for marshalling
yes, from dusk to dawn
13
What is the Altimeter tolerance for RVSM
on ground, both altimeters must read within 75' of field elevation and within 75' of each other
14
are runway lights required at night
yes
15
what must be included in a position report
flight number
position
time
altitude
route and type of flight plan
eta over next point
next point after that
flight conditions
16
Describe method 1 drift down
Basically be able to lose an engine at v1, and climb to clear all terrain by at least 1000'
METHOD 1 Method 1 requires the aircraft to take off at a weight that ensures that if an engine failure occurs anywhere from V1 to the destination, that the aircraft's net altitude capability will clear all obstructions 5 SM either side of the intended route by 1,000 feet until reaching the destination. The aircraft must also have a positive net gradient at 1,500 feet above the destination airport. Under optimum conditions, these requirements provide actual aircraft altitude capability of approximately 6,000 feet over the most critical obstruction and 6,500 feet above the destination field elevation when operating at enroute climb speed and planned conditions.
