Study Notes
Aviation Operational Requirements
- RVR A indicates visibility along the touchdown zone (TDZ).
- Jet aircraft can take off when the destination runway has at least 60% of the Landing Distance Available (LDA).
Life Raft Requirements
- Transport type A/C requires a life raft when flying over water if the distance to land is greater than 400NM or the flying time is over 120 minutes.
Holding and Speed Restrictions
- Before entering a holding pattern above 14,000ft, turbo-jet aircraft should decrease their speed to 265kts.
- When flying at controlled airports below 3,000ft AGL and within 10nm, the maximum Indicated Air Speed (IAS) is 200kts.
Medical and Safety
- Ear and sinus pain are caused by trapped gas expansion.
- Infants do not need a seat belt, but the adult holding them must have their seat belt fastened.
Approach and Landing
- If the aircraft's approach speed is higher than normal, touchdown as soon as possible after landing, lower the nose, and use maximum braking and reverse thrust.
Aircraft Systems
- The Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) starts working as soon as the electrical power is turned on.
Flight Planning and Navigation
- The North Atlantic Tracks (NAT) Minimum Navigation Performance Flight (MNPF) altitude range is between FL285 and FL420.
Weather Avoidance
- When avoiding thunderstorms, maintain a horizontal distance of at least 20nm if the storm tops are above 30,000ft.
- Below the freezing level, maintain a distance of 5nm, and above the freezing level but below 30,000ft, maintain a distance of 10nm.
Emergency Codes
- Codes 7700, 7500, and 7600 indicate a need for immediate assistance.
Aircraft Equipment
- Anti-skid systems are used to prevent rapid deceleration during braking.
