To improve your Technical and Systems Knowledge
(RF) Indication is displayed to the right of hydraulic system quantity:
When hydraulic quantity is below 76% in either system A or B // and the aircraft is on the ground with both engines shutdown or after landing with flaps up during taxi-in.
What are the 737-800 dimensions
- 35.8m wide
- 39.5m long
- 12.5m high
What are the 737-800 maximum masses?
- MZFM: 61 688 kg
- MTOM: 70 535 -78 244 kg
- MTaxiM: 70 762 -78 442 kg (delta 227kg)
- MLM: 65 317 kg
A DUCT OVERHEAT light only will cause:
The temperature mix valves to drive full cold
A flight is aborted shortly after takeoff and prepares to return to the departure airfield. The OFF SCHED DESCENT light illuminates. On the pressurization panel crew must:
take no action - the auto abort capability programs cabin to land at takeoff field elevation.
A Fuel CONFIG alert is when?
- Centre tank > 726kg and Centre pumps OFF or LO PRESS
- Goes away when Centre tank quantity less than 363kg
A good visual scan method is
a sequence of intense, fixated observations
A hot air leak is detected in the APU bleed air ducting. This is indicated on the forward overhead panel by:
left (1) WING-BODY OVERHEAT light
A leak develops in the System A electric-driven pump; how does this affect the operation of the PTU?
The PTU will not function as all system pressure is lost
A leak in the No 2 engine driven hydraulic pump or associated lines can result in a total loss of hydraulic system B pressure:
Yes, but it drains to top of standpipe (both pumps feed from standpipe). Volume still remains but only PTU operation is still available’
A leak occurs in the standby system - which statement is correct?
The LOW QUANTITY light will illuminate when the standby reservoir is approx half empty, the standby reservoir quantity will decrease to zero and the system B reservoir level will decrease to approx 72%
A Mach trim system provides speed stability at airspeeds above:
Mach .615
A magenta bug on the vertical speed indicator on the PFD indicates:
Selected vertical speed on the MCP panel with V/S pitch mode selected
A pack light illuminates, it does not extinguish on reset of the master caution recall. What could have been the cause of the alert?
A dual pack failure in which the pack will continue to operate until excessive temperature is sensed.
A single detector loop for an engine fails and the related OVHT/DET switch in the aft electronic panel is in the NORMAL position. What flight indications can you expect?
There is no flight deck indication of single loop failure with the OVHT/DET switch in NORMAL.
A TA symbol showing on the ND has, alongside it, a down arrow and „-07”. This means:
The traffic is descending at minimum of 500fpm
A TCAS Resolution Advisory is generated when:
The conflicting aircraft is 25 seconds from point of closest approach
A valid FMC PERF INIT page Scratch Pad entry for actual FUEL is:
Actual fuel is displayed automatically and cannot be entered manually
A WING BODY OVERHEAT light indicates:
A leak in the bleed air duct system
What are the 5 conditions for aborted engine start on GND?
- No N1 Rotation - ST SW OFF
- No EGT increase within 15s of moving st lever to IDLE - ST LEV C/O, Motor 60s, ST SW OFF
- Little or no N1 or N2 increase after EGT increase - ST LEV C/O, Motor 60s, ST SW OFF
- EGT quickly approaches or exceeds limit line - ST LEV C/O, Motor 60s, ST SW OFF
- No oil pressure indication by engine idle - ST SW C/O, When N2<20% ST SW GND, Motor 60s, ST SW OFF
Above 37,000 feet the pressurization controller maintains a pressure differential of:
8.35 psi
Above what windspeed should Entry or Cargo Doors not be opened?
40 knots.
Activated at 14,000 feet the passenger oxygen masks drop down from the stowage. How do you activate the flow of oxygen?
Pulling one mask down will activate all masks in that unit.
AFDS is engaged in Altitude hold and heading select. If the heading select switch on the MCP was pushed what would the FMAs display?
MCP SPD | CWS R (in amber, below the FMA) |ALT HOLD.
