SOPs Flashcards
(21 cards)
SOPs
Inexperienced co-pilot (take-off and landing limitations)
> 2/3 of max crosswind
15kts xwind (monitored approved)
Forecast or reported windshear
T/O or LDG RVR < 1000 m
Ceiling < 100 ft above DA or < 200 ft above MDA
Contaminated Rwy
Performance limited Rwy
Visual approach
Abnormal procedures due to system defects
SOPs
Use of V/S before Flaps up no light
SID speed requires delay in flap retraction
Rate of climb needs to be managed (follow the 1, 2, 3 rule of RYR)
A/C has accelerated to speed limit
AFDS is engaged according to RYR proc
Above MFRA
SOPs
No assumed temperature
Aircraft de-iced (Type II or IV) –> 24K FULL mini
Crosswind > 10 kts
Gear extended flight
Bleeds Off departure
If notified in airfield brief
SOPs
5 reasons to abort an engine start
No N1 rotation before the engine start lever is raised to idle detent
No increase in EGT within 15s of raising the engine start lever to idle detent
EGT rapidly approaching or exceeding the start limit
No increase in, or a very slow increase in N1/N2 after EGT indication
No oil pressure indication by the time the engine is stabilized at idle
Maximum decent speed
330kts / M.81
Max taxi speeds
Contaminated and slippery taxiways or runways
5 kts
Max taxi speeds
Turns
10 kts
Max taxi speeds
Aprons
15 kts
Max taxi speeds
Taxiway
30 kts
Max taxi speeds
Backtracking on runway
50 kts
Severe turbulence SOPs
Climb: reduce speed to 280/M.76 (whichever is lower)
Cruise: set turbulence penetration N1; yaw damper engaged; autopilot use CWS position, auto throttle disengage; attitude: maintain wings level do not chase airspeed
Descent: below FL150 & GW <= LDW. Speed can be reduced to 250kts
Conditions to takeoff with CSFF
- CSFF is within the black lines defining permissible CSFF area
- No snow, ice or frost on leading edges or control surfaces
- Ambient air temperature is at or above +4°C
- There is no precipitation or visible moisture
- Tank fuel temperature is at or above -16°C
Conditions to be in LVO
RVR at or below 550m and DH at or below 200ft AAL
CAT I / CAT II / CAT III minimas (DH & RVR)
CAT I: 200ft & 550m ; CAT II: 100ft and 300m ; CAT III: 50ft and 175m
Monitored approach minimas (DH and RVR) for NPA and PA
NPA: 1000ft & 3000m
PA: 300ft & 1000m
Practice CAT II/III approaches minimas (DH and RVR)
Vis above 1500m and ceiling above 500ft
VMC conditions
Ceiling above 1000ft AAL and met reported visibility in excess of 5,000 meters.
GNSS spoofing (not jamming i.e. GPS invalid)
GNSS observed/reported or as specified in CO-NOTAM/AFB:
- FMC NAV options page 2/2: GPS update-OFF, DME/VOR/LOC ON
- PM: utilise conventional means of navigation and position monitoring, select VSD ON
- Confirm highest MSA for applicable phase of flight
GNSS spoofing suspected AND GPWS look ahead caution/warning ACTIVATES:
- At/Above FL250: Caution/Warning may be considered spurious and disregarded
- Above MSA, below FL250: can be considered spurious and disregarded if VMC and flight path is confirmed clear of terrain and obstacles. IMC or terrain clearance not confirmed, apply appropriate QRH Maneuver.
- At/Below MSA: apply appropriate QRH maneuver, resume conventional navigation. PIOSEE to determine alert validity. If confirmed spurious —> TERR and RUNWAY inhibit.
- On Approach:
* VMC + positive visual verification —> spurious, can continue the approach
* IMC —> QRH maneuver. Revert to conventional navigation, determine if spurious.
Spurious Predictive Windshear Alerts
- Path over an area of open water
- No weather existing or forecast that are associated with windshear
SOPs
Interception the Glide Slope from above
- Establish on LOC.
- Set the MCP altitude no lower than 1000ft AFE (1000ft in addition to land alt).
- When cleared for approach, validate G/S (distance/height cross check).
- Arm APP Mode when within 1 dot above G/S.
- Configure the aircraft (Flaps 5 & F5 speed) by 2000ft AFE.
- Achieve G/S or Path capture by 5nm or 4nm from the RW point for all ILS/GLS approaches.
SOPs
Isolated Pack Operation during Engine Start
Improve cabin air quality between starting the first and seconde engine
Engine No.2 - Start
After engine No.2 stabilized:
Isolation valve switch - Close
Right Pack switch - Auto
Duct pressure - Stabilized
Engine No.1 - Start
After engine No.1 stabilized: Isolation valve switch - Auto
CAUTION: moving engine bleed air switches while starter is engaged can damage the starter.
