How are the two VHF navigation receivers controlled?

Through the RTUs

By the DCUs

By the GPS

Through the MFDs

An audio message of "DONT SINK" is generated when:

An excessive sink rate is encountered on landing

The aircraft is 2 dots below the glideslope

Aircraft altitude decreases immediately after take-off or during a missed approach

On approach with the gear down and flaps up

Wind shear warning are provided

At all altitudes and phases of flight

Only when the gear is down

Only with the gear and flaps down

During the take-off and landing phases

How is tuning the ADF receivers achieved

Through the BTU

Through the FMS or through the RTU

Through the ADF panel on the lower pedestal

By tuning a valid ILS localizer

A TCAS corrective resolution advisory indicates the

Conflict has been resolved and the normal flight path is resumed

Flight crew is to monitor the intruding aircraft

Autopilot is capable of alerting the flight path of the aircraft

Flight crew must respond to intruder by alerting flight path in the vertical plane

Resolution advisories occur when the TCAS computer predicts that the intruding airplane is within about_____seconds for the closest point of approach.

The TCAS system can provide collision avoidance direction for:

All aircraft

All transponder equipped aircraft

Only mode A transponder equipped aircraft

Transponder Mode S and C equipped aircraft.

When on TCAS page, Tcas monitors the airspace around the aircraft to a maximum range of:

10 nautical miles

20 nautical miles

30 nautical miles

40 nautical miles

With what symbol are traffic advisories indicates?

A solid amber circle

A solid cyan diamond

A solid amber diamond

A solid amber square

The father radar system provides the flight crew with a display of x-band radar detectable areas of precipitation along and within ______ degrees on either sides of the airplane flight path.

180

With which controls can we set an active transponder code?

RTU and ATC SEL knob on the tuning select panel

Standby control unit and ATC SEL knob

FMS only

RTU only

GPS recibes autonomous integrity monitoring (RAIM) is used to ensure that the GPS solution (satellite computation) meets the required accuracy:

0.3 nautical miles for approach

2.0 nautical miles for enroute (4nm for oceanic/remote)

1.0 nautical mile for terminal

All of the above

The pilot can cancel a "SINK RATE" advisory by:

Pressing the GPWS switch

Activating the aural warning test switch

Lowering the landing gear

Climbing aircraft above trip point

The "GLIDE SLOPE" aural alert can be cancelled by:

Pressing the GPWS GS switch-light

Climbing above the glide slope

Climbing to within 1 dot of the glide slope

All of the above

Wind shear warnings will stop when

The proper recovery is initiated

Wind shear conditions are no longer presented

The proper recovery has been completed

Indicated airspeed within a safe margin

When will the vertical deviation glideslope scale be displayed on the PFD and MFD?

When a valid VOR is tuned

Always

When a valid ILS is tuned

When Approach mode is engaged on the FCP

In order to have an operating TCAS, what must a TCAS equipped aircraft also have?

An operating mode S Transponder

An operating mode C Transponder

An operating mode A Transponder

Any operating Transponder

The EGPWS visual warnings are displayed on the:

Primary flight display (PFD),multifunction display (MFD) and glareshield

Multifunction display (MFD) and glareshield

EICAS primary display and primary flight display (PFD)

On the glareshield and primary flight display (PFD)
