plane!
When source of AC power is lost what is procedure? - ANSWER Power down aircraft
utilitizing the Leave the Airplane Checklist then perform power up utilizing Safety and
Power Up Checklist.
What must be on during external inspection to have a valid check of brake wear
indicators: - ANSWER Parking brake.
ADSP show ice and snow contamination what is procedure? - ANSWER ADSP heater
switch ON, Flight control PBIT - Accomplish
After minimum of 3 mins and ice has melted, power down aircraft, wait one min, power
the AC back up using normal procedures.
ADSP heater switch - OFF
Spurious AFCS and ADS EICAS msgs may be an indication of what in regards to
ADSPs? - ANSWER ADSP has frozen moisture inside it.
Skywest philosophy regarding ice contamination? GDPM Ch. 2. - ANSWER All surfaces
clear of frost, ice, etc.
What is a cold weather pre-flight inspection? - ANSWER Visually inspect critical
surfaces and components of frozen contaminants from best vantage point possible. If
normal visual features cannot be distinguished - contaminated. If not free of ice or frost,
PIC notices station personnel. If critical surfaces are free of ice - no further deice anti ice
needed.
When does a cold weather pre-flight inspection have to be performed? - ANSWER OAT
less than 5 C.
Wing fuel temp equal or less than 0C.
Conditions conducive to icing
Aircraft has remained overnight may have frozen contaminants
Cold soak suspected in fuel tank area.
Any thru flight where residual ice may have accumulated on airframe
If 5 degrees or colder, pre-flight inspection must take place when? - ANSWER within 30
mins of pushback.
Preflight action for Nose landing gear. - ANSWER Wheel chocks IN.
Up Lock Hook - Unlocked

restriction. Repair interval of category A of one day. Procedures that must be
performed, tested, or checked before each flight.
What impact does the above MEL 32-47-1a have on flight planning? - ANSWER Must
add 660 lbs more of fuel for increased fuel burn (dragging gear for 7 mins).
How does the pilot know that this added fuel burn from MEL has been applied to flight
release? - ANSWER Release remarks section
Why is the HYD fluid temperature checked during the originating flow? - ANSWER If it's
-18C then must do the HYD system warm up.
During an ECS On takeoff will APU be ON or OFF? - ANSWER APU will be off.
If ACARS takeoff performance dictates ECS ON takeoff and crew fails to shut down the
APU, the EICAS will generate an ENG REF ECS DISAGREE message, if this happens,
what do you do? - ANSWER TEAM model, have pilots reference the QRH, re enter
takeoff data or reconfigure aircraft.
