SOPM Chapter 5

Question 1

Captains Glory Run

Answer 1

• Press the TO/GA button to arm the Flight Director for take-off mode.
• Select TA/RA on the transponder.
• At pilot’s discretion set the SPEED Knob to FMS or
  MANUAL.

If MANUAL, set VFS on the speed window for Flap 1-3 take-off or 175kts for Flap 4 take-off.

• If required, select NAV for a LNAV departure.

Question 2

VSPEED READOUTS AND BUGS

Four speeds are displayed prior to take-off:

Answer 2

V1 ……..1 ………….MAGENTA
VR ……..R…………..CYAN
V2 ………2 ………….WHITE
VFS …….FS…………GREEN

Question 3

Normal engine idle indications are approximately:

Answer 3

N1 22%, ITT 480°C, N2 63%, FF 220 kg/hr

Question 4

Although FADEC provides automatic over-temperature
protection and will automatically abort the start in the event of
a hot start, hot restart or hung start, the engine start must be
manually aborted when

Answer 4

• No positive oil pressure indication within 10 seconds after
  N2 speed starts to increase,
• During engine start with tailwind, if a positive increase of
  N1 is not indicated before starter cut-out (50% N2). In this
  case the aircraft should be repositioned prior to engine
  start to minimize tailwind effects,
• If ITT does not rise within 1 minute after fuel is applied (15
  seconds after fuel is re-applied),
• ITT exceeds start limit (Hot Start),
• If oil pressure stabilises below the engine limits,
• N1 and/or N2 failing to accelerate to stable idle speed
  (Hung Start),
• An intermittent electrical pneumatic or starter malfunction
  occurs before the starter disengagement.

Question 5

The N1 target indication on the EICAS must be equivalent to
the N1 target indication available via performance calculation. the tolerance is?

Answer 5

-0.1% up to +0.5% between the N1 indicated
on EICAS and the computed value via performance
calculation are allowed.

Question 6

TAXI SPEEDS AND BRAKING?

Answer 6

Recommended taxi speed:
* Straight / DRY: 30 kt
* Straight / WET or CONTAMINATED: 10 kt
* Turns / DRY: 10 kt
* Turns / WET or CONTAMINATED: 5 kt

Question 7

RUDDER / STEERING USE AND TURNING RADIUS

Answer 7

The maximum steering angle of rudder pedal is ± 7°.

For E190 operations the tail tip has the largest arc while turning and determines the minimum obstruction clearance path.
