ATPL Operational Procedures UK 3

The principle of operation of a fire loop detector is as the temperature increases, the:

• Resistance decreases.

• Reference current decreases.

• Pressure increases.

• Pressure decreases.

Normal flow on a diluter demand oxygen system is obtained by selecting:

• Normal.

• Normal and breathing in.

• 100% and breathing in.

• Emergency.

The cockpit windows suddenly mist up, the temperature drops and the background noise level increases. This indicates:

• Over pressurization.

• A failure of the environmental control system.

• The automatic cabin fire extinguisher system has gone off.

• Explosive decompression.

In the 'worst case' scenario of recovery from the effects of a microburst, having increased to full go-around power, in co-ordinating power and pitch it may be necessary to:

• Reduce speed to V2 and hold.

• Climb away at VAT + 20 kts.

• Increase the pitch angle until the stick shaker is felt and hold at slightly below this angle.

• Slowly increase speed whilst maintaining a positive rate of climb.

In a microburst downdrafts in the order of 3.000 to 4.000 ft/ min can produce vector changes in horinzontal wind of:

• 30 to 40 kts.

• 10 to 20 kts.

• 60 to 80 kts.

• 100 to 140 kts.

Where is the best position following a heavier aeroplane?

• Above its flight path and downwind.

• Below its flight path and downwind.

• Below its flight path and upwind.

• Upwind and above its flight path.

Where is the best position following a heavier aeroplane?

• Above its flight path and downwind.

• Below its flight path and downwind.

• Below its flight path and upwind.

• Upwind and above its flight path.

The tip vortices circulate about at each wing tip:

• Counterclockwise.

• Clockwise.

• From the underwing toward the upper side of the wing.

• From the upper side of the wing toward the underwing.

A bomb alert is received at cruise altitude, fuel is not a problem that needs to be considered, what do you do?

• Descend to safety altitude.

• Go to the maximum altitude not affected by pressure.

• Go to cabin altitude pressure and remain clean until the final approach.

• Descend to cabin pressure altitude or safety altitude, whichever is the higher, and go to landing configuration as a safety measure.

After an accident or serious incident in flight, the state where the aeroplane lands should report to:

• State of Registry / ICAO.

• State of Registry/State of the Operator.

• State of Registry / JAA.

• State of Registry/State of the Operator / ICAO.
