EXAM
What is pressure altitude? - ANSWERS-the altitude when 1013 is set on the
altimeter
with high humidity in the air more or less dense? - ANSWERS-less dense
The water molecules push the air molecules apart
therefore aircraft performance will be less on humid days
what is density altitude? - ANSWERS-pressure altitude correct for none standard
temperature
the altitude the aircraft will perform at for those given conditions
what is the hydraulic pressure for a A320? - ANSWERS-3000 PSi
what are given by an airports code and letter? - ANSWERS-Airport field length
Wingspan
Outer main gear wheel span
1A - Less than 800 m, <15m , <4.5m

EXAM
An operator has been granted permission to extend the alternate range to beyond
60mins single engine
60-180 mins
A320 - 350nm
what are the IFR flight levels - ANSWERS-360 - 179 degrees - ODD - 10,30,50
180 - 359 ~degrees - even -20,40,60
What is RVSM airspace? - ANSWERS-Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum
(FL 290-410). and Gain fuel saving and operating efficiency by flying at more fuel
efficient FLs and on more user preferred routes.
Equipment must be certified and crews qualified
two independent alternators -must be within + or - 200ft of each other,
two Air Data computers
at least one autopilot with altitude maintaining function
Altitude deviation alert system
SSR Transponder mode C
2 long range navigation systems

EXAM
what power setting is assumed for VMCA and VMCG? - ANSWERS-take off
power
always the worse scenario
when must the crew call either a pan or mayday for a fuel emergency? -
ANSWERS-Pan - Maybe land with less than final reserve
mayday - WILL land with less than final reserve
why will a air driven artificial horizon indicate nose up during takeoff? -
ANSWERS-due to the action of the pendulous vane
What is a holdover time? - ANSWERS-The estimated length of time that deice/
anti-ice fluid will prevent the accumulation of ice/snow/frost on the aircraft.
for 1 step the time starts at the beginning of the operation
for 2 step it starts at the beginning of the second step
what height above the ground will the GPWS work? - ANSWERS-50 - 2450 ft
where is the EGT measured? - ANSWERS-turbine inlet
