JFS limits
No JFS start within 8 sec (electric motor overheat): allow to cool 5 mins JFS starts but no engine start, JFS operational for; Less than 60s - 2 mins cool 60-90s - 5 mins cool Over 90s - 1 hr cool… don’t try for over 90s!! Check limits for subsequent starts.
43
Max cabin differential
Emergency limit 9.42 psi Normal limit (auto mode) 8.6 psi
44
Oxygen system
-Total contents should not be less than 7.5L -Must be on oxygen above CABALT 8k -Intentional operation above CABALT 10kft prohibited. -“normal” mixture insufficient above CABALT 12k (use 100%) -Descend at least below CABALT 18kft to avoid decompression sickness and hypoxia. -Demist requirements will reduce time by up to a factor of 2.5 Really? Could fly depressurised at 10,000ft with selector on “Normal” if required or just descend 8,000ft and come off oxygen

Speed brake operation prohibited with AP engaged After gear or flap operation, aircraft must be trimmed in straight and level flight prior to AP engagement Coupled instrument app: Follow through yoke and rudder Disengage by higher if 500 agl or minima PM to monitor AP annunciations No AT
54
HF radio
Don’t test or turn on (auto BIT) if personnel touching skin of aircraft or during de icing Do not use HF if within 200ft of: Refuelling operations Fuel or munitions storage areas Live munitions or armed aircraft
55
INS 3
Must be shutdown before switching to external power
56
DAPA
Not certified hence we need to perform gross error checks. Run TOLD charts during planning. LD 1hr from landing Nav checks CG every HEFOM with slip stick Source for speed carets, Tgt N1 so these are “not to be relied upon”
57
EFIS RVSM limit
AT/HD inset must be displayed on at least one FD screen at all times AoA not to be relied upon! IAS now primary reference RVSM up to and including FL370 max

59
Prohibited PBN ops
RNP AR APCH Advanced RNP FRT? TOAC? Radius to Fix
60
FD system
If AP disengages during switch from Terminal to Approach mode, must wait 6 sec before re-engaging For FD off take off, DAPA take off page 5/6 must be displayed on the ECDU Ensure FMS Mag mode if tracking a VOR/TACAN
61
PEDs
Transmitting PEDs reclassify as Unintentionally transmitting PEDs if put in flight safe mode. UPEDs can be used during non critical phases of flight JSP440 for actual security requirements of bringing PEDs on board….?
