Study Notes
Aviation Concepts
- Balanced field length: the distance required for an aircraft to accelerate to V1, experience an engine failure, and either reject the takeoff or continue to takeoff safely, with enough runway remaining.
Engine Operations
- Turbo-prop engine start: ground idle temperature should be increased.
- Diffuser function in a turbine engine: not specified.
- Stator vane function in a turbine engine: not specified.
- Turbo-fan engine: as air enters the compressor fan, pressure increases, and velocity decreases.
Takeoff and Landing
- TOA (Takeoff Distance Available): the distance available for takeoff.
- ASDA (Accelerated Stop Distance Available): the distance available for stopping during an accelerated stop.
- Maneuvering area: includes runways and taxiways.
Pilot Factors
- Low approach illusions:
- Rain on the windshield
- Downslope runway
- Upslope terrain
- Collision avoidance scanning technique: 45-degree visibility check.
Aircraft Performance
- Single engine failure ceiling and range: 21700 ft and 401 nm.
- Single engine failure information: can be found in notes based on specific situations.
Safety Procedures
- Fuel dump systems: monitor fuel dumping process.
- De-icing and cold-soaking frost: avoid taking off with frost attached to the wing; keep formed frost adhered to the wing.
Aircraft Systems
- Compressor bleed purpose: not specified.
- Leading-edge flap function: increases lift by increasing the camber of the wing.
Airport Operations
- ILS CAT II & CAT III power: check AIM for information.
- Low visibility operation procedure: check CFS (Correct).
