Answer 2

1. No straight-in minimums published.
2. If approach requires MDA mins (i.e., circling).
3. No Descent Angle published in VS section.
4. No local altimeter.

​Note: CDFA = Continuous Descent Final Approach.

Question 3

Explain what aircraft lights to turn on/off for…

1. Receipt of “line up and wait” clearance?
2. Receipt of takeoff clearance?

Answer 3

1. LANDING LT - NOSE and A/COLL - ON.
2. LANDING LT - L & R - ON (or PULSE).

Question 4

Emergency Equipment:

1. How many fire extinguishers on board? Location?
2. How many life rafts on board? Locations?
3. Where is the first aid kit, AED, and Oxygen bottle?
4. Where is the PBE location?

Answer 4

1. 3 fire extinguishers (behind copilot’s seat, behind passenger seat 1, under divan at aft end).
2. 2 life rafts (both under divan at emergency exit).
3. First aid kit, AED, Oxygen bottle, and PBE located in forward Closet. AED is a “CPR coaching machine”.
4. PBE (2nd) is aft of the divan in cabinette.

Question 5

1. Length?
2. Width?
3. Height at tail?

Answer 5

1. Length: 68’ 5”.
2. Width: 64’ 4”.
3. Height: 20’ 8” (with elevator up).

Question 6

What is QNE, QNH and QFE?

Answer 6

QNE = NE for Normal Enroute = 29.92” or 1013 hPa (mb) is set. Operate at a FL. hPa = mb.

QNH = NH for Normal Home = Local altimeter set. Altitude above MSL.

QFE = FE for Freaky Elevation = Field elevation on the airport is 0’. Very unusual.

Note: Between Flight Levels (FL) above & Altitudes (feet) near ground, is a Transition Layer that separates the two areas. At the top of the Transition Layer is a Transition Level and at the bottom of this Transition Layer is the Transition Zone.

Descending: Change QNE to QNH at Transition Level (Jep approach plates shows Trans Level to the left of Trans Alt (Trans Level is for the approach and Trans Alt is for a missed approach)). STARs only show Transition Level).

Climbing: Change QNH to QNE at the Transition Alt (Jep SIDs only show Transition Alt).

Question 7

How do you calculate a DDA for a CDFA approach that doesn’t have vertical guidance (MDA minimums)?

Answer 7

Add 50 ft to the MDA minimums to get the DDA. This DDA is what you set for Baro Minimums.

​Note: CDFA = Continuous Descent Final Approach. CDFA’s require local altimeter, straight-in minimums (no circling) and Descent Angle published on chart.

Question 8

Climb schedule for CL-650?

Answer 8

250 kts until 10,000 ft, then climb at 300 kts / 0.78 M

Note: min climb speed is 250 kts / 0.72 M, 200 fpm & 0.6 AOA.

Question 9

How many total passengers (including children < 2?

Answer 9

14 passengers due to number of installed passenger O2 masks (11 passenger seats total + max of 3 lap children < 2 years old on the laps of adults that are in aft facing seats with available oxygen masks. The F/A has her own mask and jump seat).

Question 10

What are Missed Approach profile & callouts?

Answer 10

• FP: “Go-Around…” - A/P (2 clicks) - TOGA (2 clicks) - ATS (2 clicks) - “…Set Power, Flaps 20°”.
• MP: “Power Set, Flaps 20° Selected, Positive Rate”.
• FP: “Gear Up, Set Missed Approach Altitude”.
• FP: “NAV SRC - FMS 1, VS, NAV, SPEED SET 200, A/P”.
• Climb: (2 eng’s = Between V_ref+10 to V_fe [target 200 kts], OEI = V_ac).
• MP: “F-R-A” (2 eng’s = 1000’ AFE, OEI = ESA).
• FP: “Flaps 0°, After T/O Checklist” (2 eng’s V_{t (fto)}+5 minimum and OEI: V_{t (fto)}-5 minimum). Based on definition, both should be V_{t (fto)} minimum.
• MP: “Flaps 0° Selected”.
  Notes: If Go-Around button not pressed, check FMS legs page is “Sequenced”, not “Inhibited” at top right corner ( otherwise the FMS will not track fixes beyond the runway). V_fto or V_t = Final Take Off speed and minimum engine-out en route climb speed that provides the best engine-out rate of climb with flaps up. V_ac = Approach Climb speed is the minimum airspeed for single-engine go-around.

Question 11

What are the V₁ Cut profile and callouts?

Answer 11

• Callouts are the same up to V₁, then PM, “Engine Failure”, then after gear up, keep flaps at 20° until FRA (usually 800’-900’).
• Climb at V₂ to FRA (usually 800’-900’).
• Select FLC.
• At FRA (usually 800’-900’) pitch down to put Flight Path Vector to horizon, at V_{t (fto)} hit pitch sync to hold speed at V_{t (fto)} (FLC needed for speed control). Flaps - 0° and climb at V_{t (fto)} to ESA.
• At ESA, level off & ask for, “Set 200 kts” then A/P. Ask for “QRC Inflight Engine Shut Down or Fire”.

Notes: V_{t (fto)} = Final Take Off, or OEI best rate of climb climb speed with flaps up. V_ac = OEI missed approach climb speed for flap configuration.

Question 12

What are the landing callouts?

Answer 12

• PM: “Spoilers, 2 Deployed, 60”.
• LP: At taxi speed, “My Controls”.
• RP: “Your Controls”.

Question 13

What are the Approach Callouts starting from “cleared for the approach”?

Answer 13

Note: OEI Approach: Flaps 20° max
* PF: “cleared for the approach”.
* PM: “[Baro minimums, i.e., 220, etc] set”.
* Established on VDA (CDFA - VS), GS or VGP and below MAA:
* PF: “Set missed approach altitude”
* PM: “1000 stable”.
* PM: “100 above”.
* PF: “Minimums”.
* If runway in sight:
* PM: “Runway, ___ o’clock”.
* PF: “Landing”.
* Nothing in sight, PM: “Go around”.
* If approach lights in sight, PM: “Approach lights, continue”.
* 100 ft above TDZE, PF: “Decision”.
* If runway in sight, PM: “Runway, 12 o’clock” OR “Go around”.
* 100 ft above TDZE, PF: “Landing” OR initiate a missed approach.
