What means land

as soon as possible?

Land at the nearest suitable airport.


Extreme situation could require

an off-airport crash.

Term

 

 

 

On a VNAV approach, if you are one dot low

at the glideslope intercept,how many

feet low will you be over the treshold?

Definition

 

 

One dot low at the FAF: 75 feet low

 

One dot low at the Treshold: 75 feet low

 

(because the VGP aims for 50 feet over the treshold, you are supposed to go-around with half dot low only)

Term

per mile of runway

Term

 

 

 

 

Why not applying power first during a inadvertent stall memory item?

Definition

 

 

 

Although this recovery works for any altitudes, at

FL 470 for example, there would be little power available anyway, hence the reason to pitch down first before applying power

Term

 

 

 

What flaps setting should be used

when type 4 fluid has been

used to deice the airplane?

Definition

 

 

 

T/O is limited to flaps 7 configuration

per section 2 of the flight manual.


Once the distance is calculated, it must be multiplied by a coefficient factor depending of the runway condition

Term

 

 

 

What are the coefficient factors

to calculate a T/O distance

with type 4 fluid on the aircraft?

Definition

 

 

 

Dry runway: factor 1.15


Wet runway: factor 1.1


Contaminated runway: 1.1

Term

 

 

 

When conducting a GPS app,

how many feet are you off

with one dot lateral?

Definition

 

 

 

 

 

900 feet

Term

 

 

You have lost both engines.

Until your partner finds the L/D chart

in the emergency/abnormal check-list,

what AOA setting could you use?

Definition

 

 

 

 

AOA 0.5,

which also happens to be close

to the green carrot+ 10 Kts

Term

 

 

You have lost one engine at 410

and are now drifting down.

Until your partner find the driftdown chart,

what AOA could you use?

Definition

 

 

 

 

 

 

0.3

Term

 

 

 

What is the protected airspace

during a Cat C circling approach

with TERPS? with PAN-OPS?

Definition

 

 

 

 

TERPS: 1.7 NM

 

PAN-OPS: 4.2 NM

Term

 

 

 

In TERPS circling cat C, the protected

airspace is much smaller than PAN-OPS

circling cat C. Why such disparity?

Definition

1- PAN-OPS is calculated based on TAS (not IAS like TERPS)

 

2- PAN-OPS factor a "worst case" 25 Kts tailwind

 

3- PAN-OPS is calculated on 180 Kts speed Vs 140 Kts for TERPS

 

4- PAN-OPS is calculated with 20 degrees of bank Vs 25 for TERPS

Term

 

 

 

What means land as

soon as practical?

Definition

 

 

 

 

 

Land at the nearest suitable airport.
