How can you silence an overspeed warning?
- Reduce airspeed below Vmo/Mmo
- By pushing the MASTER WARNING/CAUTION reset switch
What conditions will activate the landing gear configuration warning?
The airplane is in flight and any landing gear is not down and locked, and either of the following exists:
- Flaps in a landing position-25 or 30, cannot be silenced
- Any thrust lever at idle with RA below 800ft
What conditions will cause a takeoff configuration Master Warning with Aural siren?
Either throttle pushed to the TO range on the ground with:
- Flaps not in takeoff position
- Parking brake set
- Speedbrake lever not down
- Stabilizer trim not in the green band
When is the stall warning system functional?
During all phases of flight.
What does the pitch limit indicator (PLI) indicate?
The pitch limit at which stick shaker activation will occur.
Where is TCAS target symbology displayed?
- On the VSI, if selected
- On the radar display, if selected
Where is TCAS RA guidance displayed?
- On the periphery of the VSI
- An aural voice sounds
- TCAS RA symbology (red square) appears on the TA/VSI
What symbol and color represents a traffic advisory (TA)?
A filled amber circie
What symbol and color represents a resolution advisory (RA)?
A filled red square
What is the purpose of GPWS?
To provide alerts for potentially hazardous flight conditions involving imminent impact with the ground.
What prompts the GPWS alert SINK RATE?
Excessive descent rate.
What prompts the GPWS alert TERRAIN?
Excessive terrain closure rate.
What prompts the GPWS alert DON’T SINK?
Altitude loss after takeoff or go-around.
What prompts the GPWS alert TOO LOW GEAR or TOO LOW FLAPS?
Unsafe altitude while not in the landing configuration.
What prompts the GPWS alert GLIDESLOPE?
Descent below glideslope.
What prompts the GPWS alert MINIMUMS?
Descent below Decision Height.
What prompts the red EGPWS warning TERRAIN?
20-30 seconds from projected impact with terrain.
What prompts the amber EGPWS CAUTION TERRAIN?
40-60 seconds from projected impact with terrain.
During takeoff or approach, when are the Predictive Windshear (PWS) caution and warning alerts available?
Automatically enabled:
- On the ground and the thrust levers are set for takeoff
- In flight below 2300’ AGL (system enabled, but alerts cannot be received until below 1200’ AGL)
When are Reactive Windshear (RWS) alerts available?
At rotation below 1500’ RA
On the terrain alerting display, what do the different colors displayed by the EGPWS mean?
Red and amber represent terrain conflicts if flight continues toward the terrain. Solid red is an imminent threat. Known as “look ahead” conflicts.
How do you display terrain information on the HSI?
Select TERR on the EFIS control panel and verify blue TERR on the HSI or the white TERR discrete light (as installed). Available in MAP, EXP VOR, and ILS/APP modes.
Although EICAS and indicator lights are not inhibited, when is the master caution aural alert inhibited?
Caution inhibit begins at 80kts and continues until the first of 400’ AGL or 20 seconds elapsed following nose gear extension. Also inhibited with both engines shut down (minimize noise at the gate).
Although EICAS and indicator lights are not inhibited, when is the master warning aural alert inhibited?
Warning inhibit begins at nose gear extension during rotation and continues until the first of 400’ AGL or 20 seconds elapsed following nose gear extension.
