3 times

What does ( ) mean in the QRH?

OR

What does - mean in the QRH?

AND

Can you start the APU with Battery 1 deferred? Why?

No.


Batt 1 has FADEC


Batt 2 handles the start

Anytime the engines associated fire handle is pulled what happens?

1) Fuel shutoff valve closes


2) Hydraulic shutoff valve closes


3) Bleed air shutoff valve closes


4) Bleed air Xbleed valve commanded closed

How long does it take for the IESS to align?

90 seconds

Pushing this switch will shutdown the APU without the 1 minute cool down period.

EMER STOP

What is the Captains reversion art logic for the ADS system?

1-3-2

Besides the A/T DISC buttons, what will cause the auto throttles to disconnect?

A split of greater than half the thrust lever heads.

Which FMA vertical modes use the SPDe auto throttle mode?

FLCH and OVSP

How would a pilot determine if the airplane is using VNAV mode (FMS vertical navigation)?

The FMA vertical navigation mode is MAGENTA

Prior to flight in RVSM airspace, altimeters must be set and checked to what?

On the ground, with current baro. setting, the altimeter must read within 75’ of field elevation and both primary altimeters are within 75’ of each other

What is the difference between green FLCH and magenta FLCH?

Magenta FLCH is using VNAV and will respect any altitude restrictions entered into the flight plan.

Which high level function protects us from stalling the aircraft?

AOA Limiter

What are the two ways to “CLOSE” the flight plan in the FMS?

2) enter the runway at the destination

What is the purpose of ATTCS?

To provide RSV thrust during takeoff and go around

Why is it preferred to taxi single engine on Engine 1?

System logic will turn on HYD pump 2 when the left engine is running.

What is the purpose of the AUTO function on the Battery 2 switch?

System logic will automatically switch the battery from the DC ESS 2 bus to the APU start bus during an APU start.
