Lower than standard alternate weather minimums are authorized for airports with an approved instrument approach from the tables below. Describe that table. |
7.1.13 |
|
|
When using an airport without an approved instrument approach as an alternate, what is the ceiling and visibility criteria? |
At airports without an approved instrument approach, the ceiling and visibility must be enough to permit a descent from the MEA, and to approach and land in VFR conditions, at the ETA at the alternate airport. 7.1.13 |
Trick question |
|
For airports with at least two operational navigational facilities, each providing a straight-in approach procedure to different suitable runways, can you use the 200-1/2 alternate additive if the two navigation facilities are on a single piece of pavement? |
Yes, provided that each end is served by separate navigational facilities. 7.1.14 |
|
|
If the First Officer has less than 100 hours in the type of aircraft that is being flown, and the Captain is not a qualified Check Pilot, the Captain must make all takeoffs and landings in what following situations? |
• At all Special Pilot-in-Command (PIC) Qualification Airports, indicated by a "Q" on the OFP. See Special Pilot-in-Command (PIC) Qualification Airports on page 5.1.2. • Prevailing visibility in the latest weather report for the airport is ¾ mile or less. • RVR for the runway to be used is 4,000 feet or less. • Runway is contaminated with water, snow, slush, or similar conditions that may adversely affect airplane performance. • Braking action on the runway reported to be less than good. • Crosswind component is greater than 15 knots. • Windshear is reported in the vicinity of the airport. • Any other condition in which the Captain determines it to be prudent to exercise the Captain's prerogative. 5.1.1 |

LTFC member definition? |
A Low Time Flight Crew Member (LTFC) is defined as a crewmember that has less than 100 hours of line operating time in type. The flight time is not seat specific. 5.1.2 |
|
|
Captains may not operate as PIC into Special PIC Qualification Airports unless qualification has been accomplished within the preceding 12 months by one of which three methods? |
• Any operating crewmember has made an entry to that airport while serving as a crewmember, including a takeoff and landing, in an aircraft or using a level D or better simulator. • Review of the applicable Jeppesen airport pictorial pages in the Jeppesen Manual, or U.S. Department of Commerce Terminal Pilotage Charts (TPC). • Viewing Special PIC Qualification Airport video.

|
|
If the Captain is not qualified in accordance with the above methods, a takeoff or landing at an airport designated as a Special PIC Qualification Airport is still possible if the ceiling and visibility at that airport is forecast to be what? |
At least 1,000 feet above the lowest MEA, MOCA, or initial approach altitude, and the visibility is forecast to be at least 3 miles at the estimated time of arrival. 5.1.2 |
|
|
Normally, High Minimums Captains must add ___ feet to the MDA or DA and __________ (_____ feet RVR) to the visibility landing minima at the destination airport. |
100 feet One-half mile (2400 feet RVR) 5.1.8 |
|
|
The DH or MDA and visibility or RVR need not be increased at the alternate. However, in no event may the alternate landing minima be less than ___ feet and _ mile. |
300 feet 1 mile 5.1.8 |
|
|
For Category II approaches, High Minimums Captains may use the lowest applicable Category II minimums for a particular runway and instrument approach procedure if what? |
• The PIC has at least 300 hours as PIC or SIC in a turbojet aircraft; and, • The Captain and First Officer are qualified for Category II/III instrument approach procedures; and, • The autoland system is used for the approach to decision height (DH) and subsequent landing, or until initiation of a missed approach. 5.1.9 |

|
Are High Minimums Captains authorized to conduct Category III approaches? |
No 5.1.9 |
|
|
For Category I approaches, High Minimums Captains may use the lowest applicable Category I minimums for a particular runway and instrument approach procedure if what? |
• The Captain and First Officer are trained and qualified for Category II/III instrument approach procedures, and • The autopilot approach coupler or autoland system is used for the approach to decision height (DH) or until initiation of a missed approach.5.1.9 |
|
|
High Minimums Exemption Category I approach procedures may not be initiated if weather conditions are lower than __ mile visibility (____ RVR), and the crosswind component exceeds __ knots combined with a braking action of less than ____. |
¾ mile (4000 RVR) 15 knots Less than good 5.1.8 |
|
|
If a discrepancy or corrective action was written in error, what should you do? |
Draw a diagonal line across the discrepancy or corrective action and write the word "VOID" above the line and print your name, station, and date below the line. 6.1.1 |
|
|
When does an autoland have to be accomplished? |
The Captain will review the Aircraft Log to determine if an autoland has been accomplished in the previous 30 days. 6.1.2 |
|
|
When does a daily check need to be performed? |
A Daily Check is accomplished each 48 hours of aircraft operation. The 48 hours begins at block-out following the accomplishment of a Daily Check. 6.1.13 |
|
|
Does a transit check a supersedes a daily check? |
No 6.1.13 |
|
|
Does a daily check supersede a transit check? |
Yes 6.1.13 |
|
|
When is a transit check accomplished? |
The Transit Check is accomplished prior to each flight leg and is intended to assure the continued serviceability of a transiting airplane. 6.1.13 |
|
|
When might you need a New or Amended Dispatch Release? |
-A change of alternate, MEL item, or aircraft performance limitations requires an amendment to the original release or a new release. -If the actual ZFW is greater than planned ZFW by more than (A new or amended release is not required when the MINF ADJ Procedure is completed by the flight crew) -If a flight has been delayed on the ground past the "Release Valid Until" time listed on the top of the flight plan, typically 4 hours after flight plan departure time. 7.1.4 |
