Take-off

Question 1

What actions are to be taken for an engine failure during the take-off role?

Answer 1

Abort the take-off

Question 2

What actions are to be taken for an engine failure on take-off from unstick until gear selected UP?

Answer 2

Land back on or abandon

If landing back on - Barrier considerations

Question 3

What actions are to be taken for an engine failure on take-off with gear selected UP and <1000ft in the climb?

Answer 3

Abandon

Question 4

What actions are to be taken for an engine failure on take-off once above 1000ft?

Answer 4

FRC actions, get prop feathered, etc.
Then:
QFIs may attempt a forced landing to any runway
Solo students - Safe direction, then abandon

Question 5

If barrier engagement seems likely, what must you do in good time?

Answer 5

Call “DOWN, DOWN, DOWN” for the barrier to be lowered - if barrier engagement or overshooting the runway seems likely, eject in good time.

Question 6

What actions are to be taken for a loss of thrust above 300ft on take-off?

Answer 6

Check whether N1 is in the green band - if so, carry out the initial boldface for Uncommanded Power Change/Uncommanded Propeller Feather to try and regain control of the engine/prop

Question 7

When operating off of runway 13, what other option is available during an emergency on take-off?

Answer 7

Forced landing option on runway 04 at Mona

Crews must be conversant with the expected barrier state and the effect of the wind on the manoeuvre and landing run (including these in the pre-takeoff emergency brief if an option)

Question 8

What actions are to be taken for an engine failure on take-off whilst SOLO?

Answer 8

After gear has been selected UP and <2000ft agl, abandoning is the only option, positioning the aircraft to a safe ejection area if possible.

Once above 2000ft agl, an IMMEDIATE relight may be attempted, but not at the expense of safe ejection.

Question 9

During the pre-takeoff checks, what is the max discrepancy allowed between the HUD/PFD and BFI altimeters?

Answer 9

30ft

Question 10

What MUST be off prior to powering up for take-off?

Answer 10

NWS - Ensure it is straight prior to disengagement and always do one last check

Question 11

What power is set prior to brakes release?

Answer 11

30% TQ

Question 12

What checks are done at 60 KIAS during take-off?

Answer 12

TQ 99-100%
Fuel flow less than 800 pph

Stated as:
“60 (KIAS), 100 (TQ), 600 (or whatever the fuel flow readout is)” - Be rdy to abort if necessary

Question 13

What is the rotate speed on take-off, what visual attitude should be selected and approximately what climb angle will this give in the HUD?

Answer 13

85 KIAS

Question 14

Approximately how long is the ground roll during a typical take-off?

Answer 14

1500ft

Question 15

What is speed by which gear and flap must be up?

Answer 15

150 KIAS - Select UP without delay upon take-off

Question 16

What parameters must be met before the TAD will make further inputs after initially setting the rudder to T/O trim?

Answer 16

80 KIAS, no WoW

Question 17

What is the best RoC speed?

Answer 17

140 KIAS

Question 18

What is the typical climb speed used to get out in to the area?

Answer 18

180 KIAS

Question 19

Once gear and flap are selected UP, maintain approx. 5 degrees nose up to accelerate to climb speed (usually 180 KIAS). Once achieved, approx. what climb angle typically maintains this?

Answer 19

With max power, 8-9 degrees nose up typically gives 180 KIAS in the climb.

This will need to be gradually reduced during the climb.

Question 20

What checks are done after take-off when passing through TA?

Answer 20

Altimeters - 1013hPa/RPS set, CROSSCHECK
Transponder - Set
Nav Aids - Identify
