TO Flashcards
(31 cards)
What is FG means?
Fog criteria, Vz<1km, BELOW
you are taxiing and you observe a RED light from the tower, what does it mean?
RED means STOP
aborted engine start? (5)
EGT does not increase 20s after FC to RUN
N1, NO rotation when EGT increase
EGT quickly nears or exceed EGT limits
N2 not at idle 2 mins after FC to RUN
OIL press not normal when engine stabilized idle
What is Max Motoring? PW, RR
PW: Minimum N2 18%, N2 acceleration less than 1% in 5s
RR: minimum N3 15%, N2 and N3 acceleration less than 1% in 5s
gives RR re-engagment speed? normal, recommended
Normal: 0% to 20% N3
Recommended: 0% N3
When do you start the APU? earlier start?
CA discretion. normally 10mins befor push
earlier start: for Air condition or elec, on critical flight or international flight to avoid delays resulting from APU start problems
Important documents on board (11+2)
certificate of registration certificate of airworthiness airworthiness review certificate noise certificate aircraft radio license approval for MNPS/RVSM weighing report air operator certificate continuing airworthiness management organisation approval certificate certificate of insurance VAT exemption certificate + US CBP landing right EWR and JFK
RR engine start particularities, EGT 3 cases?
EGT between 1°C and 100°C: normal
EGT at 0°C: FC to RICH then TO RUN when engine stabilized
EGT above 100°C: motor below 100°C before FC to RUN
Manual Raw data when? (4)
dailight only not above FL200 not during TS activity not with cloud ceiling less than 1000ft above DH briefing during approach use "1000ft, manual thrust"
why does the FO start watch during engine start?
to time oil pressure rising
time to EGT rise
to monitor starter limits
to verify that VALVE light disappear after 5s
When is the engine is stabilized?
when MAX EGT line disappears and starting EGT peaks
What are the FO limits? (3)
no TO in Vz BELOW 400m
CATI and NPA, autoland in CATI OK
RWY lenght ABOVE 6000ft
When do you perform a Full thrust? (5)
LVP in force, RVR<400m WS in area or LLWS in effect, TS in the area MEL required it RWY is defined as slippery Captain discretion
What is the CARD code for full thrust?
56
engine failure on TO, any consideration?
not mandatory but could use full thrust it improves margins and reduce time to clear up by 50%
taxi speed? vacating RWY, straight line taxiway, on the appron, on a turn 45° or greater, on cont RWY and during LVO?
40Kts RWY to vacate 30Kts straight line taxiways 15Kts on appron 10Kts turn 45° or greater 5Kts on contaminated RWY, appron, taxiways and during LVOs
define slippery surface?
any surface where braking capability is less than on a dry surface
surface is considered slippery when it is wet or contaminated with ice, standing water, slush, snow or any other deposit that results in reduces braking capability
DRY RWY?
neither wet nor contaminated
DAMP RWY?
surfaces is not dry but moisture does not gives a shiny appearance
WET RWY?
surface covered with water, appears reflective but without standing water, less than 3mm water
CONTAMINATED RWY?
more than 25% of RWY covered with water more than 3mm deep, or slush, or loose snow.
snow compressed into solid mass, will hold together or break into lumps
ice, including wet ice
Engine out taxi before TO? (3)
only L engine shutdown
not allowed in blowing snow
observe warm up time limit
engine out taxi after landing? (7)
observe cool down limit hydraulics systems fully serviceable APU operating generator on remaining eng serviceable taxiway not contaminated with ice or snow eng AI in not required either eng may be shut down
temp inversion on TO prep, any consideration?
temp above ISA+15°C: add 3°C to tower temp
