Section I - Airplane General, Emergency Equipment, Doors, Windows Flashcards
With the main deck alert selector in the ‘AUTO’ position, what scenario would cause main deck alert system to activate?
If the Cabin Altitude exceeds 10,000 ft. or Cargo Depressurization system is activated. When this occurs, the system activates 20 second cycle of flashing main deck lights (alternating), lavatory dome light, entry lights and aural warning.
What is accomplished when the Main Deck Alert Selector is turned to the ‘RTS’ return to seat position?
It activates flashing lights for 20 seconds.
What is accomplished by turning the Main Deck Alert Selector to ‘USE OXY’?
Activates 20 second cycle of flashing main deck lights (alternating), lavatory dome light, entry lights and aural horn.
What action would trigger the fasten seat belt sign automatically illuminate when the associated switch is in the ‘AUTO’ position?
The fasten seatbelt sign automatically illuminates when the flaps are moved out of the up position and/or the landing gear is extended.
With respect to the ENTRY DOORS light on the overhead panel, what does it mean if this light is illuminated? What about the CARGO DOORS light AND ACCESS DOORS light?
a. ENTRY DOORS: An entry door is not closed, latched, and locked.
b. CARGO DOORS: the FWD, AFT, or BULK cargo door is not closed, latched, and locked.
c. ACCESS DOORS: The fwd equipment bay or the E/E compartment door is not closed, latched, and locked.
Under what circumstances will the UNARMED light adjacent to the EMER LIGHTS switch illuminate?
a. 767-300: Whenever the switch is not in the ARMED position.
b. 767-300 ‘SF’: If airplane electrical power is lost or turned off.
What would cause the Emergency Lights to automatically illuminate with the associated switch in the armed position?
If airplane electrical power is lost or turned off.
What is the power source for the emergency lighting system?
The emergency lights are powered by a battery pack. The battery charge is maintained by airplane electrical power when the Emergency Lights Switch is in the OFF or ARMED position
What is the significance of an EMER LIGHTS EICAS message?
The emergency lights switch is not in the ARMED position.
Where can flight crew oxygen pressure be checked from the flight deck?
On the lower EICAS status page.
What conditions must be met for the main cargo door to open?
The ground handling bus MUST be powered (APU or EXT power available), the landing gear lever MUST be down, and air/ground sensing system must indicate the landing gear trucks are not tilted, and the left engine MUST NOT be running.
At what rate will oxygen discharge when the normal / 100% switch is pressed? How about the EMERGENCY position?
a. Normal / 100% on demand
b. Emergency: 100% under positive pressure
T/F – Use of EMER mode on the oxygen mask panel depletes oxygen at a slower rate than 100% or NORM mode?
False; the use of EMER mode depletes oxygen supply at a higher(faster) rate.
What is the minimum oxygen level allowable for dispatch?
While there is no standard minimum level, the crew must reference MEL Chapter 35, SP 35-11-02-05 for quantities.
