Question 1

Do you have auto throttles with a dual FMC failure?

Answer 1

no

Question 2

DO you have auto throttles with more than one engine INOP?

Answer 2

no

Question 3

Between what airspeed and altitude will the auto throttles not activate?

Answer 3

• greater than 50 knots until 400 feet RA on takeoff
• 2 seconds after less than 5 feet RA on landing
• 3 seconds after greater than 5 feet RA on go around

Question 4

How could you re-engage the auto throttles if they become disconnected in flight?

Answer 4

• if ALT, V/S, or G/S: press the SPD switch

- if anything else, recycle A/T arm switch

Question 5

When would you use the THR switch?

Answer 5

• airport not in database
• to select CLB after takeoff or go around
• to select CON after TO with an engine failure after V1 and air speed < VREF +98

Question 6

What HYD system powers the L/C/R autopilots?

Answer 6

3/1/2

Question 7

In which pitch mode do you not have speed protection?

Answer 7

V/S

Question 8

With a dual FMC failure, what pages are available on the FMS-CDU?

Answer 8

ALTN NAV PROG
ALTN NAV LEGS
ALTN NAV NAV RAD

Question 9

With a dual FMC failure, is LNAV and VNAV available?

Answer 9

no

Question 10

With a dual FMC failure, do the CDUs communicate with each other?

Answer 10

no

Question 11

With a dual FMC failure, do the autopilots work?

Answer 11

yes

Question 12

With a dual FMC failure, could you do an auto land?

Answer 12

yes

Question 13

With a dual FMC failure, how would you get flaps speeds?

Answer 13

performance index of QRH

Question 14

When does the FMC transition to on approach logic?

Answer 14

• a published instrument approach has been selected and incorporated in the active flight plan and the airplane has sequenced the first waypoint on the published approach
• a VFR approach has been created and the airplane has sequenced the FAXXX or the airplane is enroute a direct-to or intercept to the runway waypoint and the airplane is within 25nm from the runway threshold

Question 15

When do you set the missed approach altitude during a VNAV approach?

Answer 15

• prior to the MDA +50 feet (or DA)

- at least 300 feet below the missed approach altitude

Question 16

When do you set the missed approach altitude during an ILS approach?

Answer 16

glide slope capture
