Question 1

POWERPLANT: 
1. When does the Air Turbine Starter (ATS) normally cutout?

Accepted Answer

CRJ 200: N2 RPM exceeds 55% 
CRJ 700/900: N2 RPM exceeds 50%

Question 2

2a. What is APR?

Accepted Answer

APR provides: 
1)Automatic Engine Failure Detection 
2)Thrust increase upon detection 
 CRJ200:8729->9220 
2% N1 increase to good engines  
 CRJ700:12760->13790 
 CRJ900:13535->14255

Question 3

2b. How is the APR armed?

Accepted Answer

CRJ200: 
1) APR switches set to ARM 
2) Engine Speed switches set to ON 
3) Weight on Wheels 
4) N1 RPM>79.1% (in N1 mode) 
5) Operative ECU 
6) 2 operating DCUs 

CRJ700/900: During T/O when N1 RPM of both engines are within 8% of scheduled T/O p

Question 4

3. Do we have APR on Go Around?

Accepted Answer

CRJ 200: 
No because one of the requirements to arm the APR is Weight ON wheels 

CRJ 700/900: 
Yes, APR is armed when the approach bit is set by having 
1)Either engines available 
2) Flaps >20 deg -or- Landing gear down

Question 5

4. How is APR activated?

Accepted Answer

CRJ200: when either engine <67.6% 

CRJ700/900: 
1)FADEC determines a N1 mismatch >15% 
2)Thrust levers must be in TOGA detent 
3)Programmed N1 setting either norm/reduced note:APR pwr is activated when one/both thrustlevers are set in MAX PWR detent

Question 6

5. You gain an additional ____% or _____ LBS thrust with APR

Accepted Answer

2% or 500 LBS

Question 7

6. What do the engine speed switches do on the CRJ 200?

Accepted Answer

1) arm APR system 
2) Engine speed control (N1 vs N2 mode)

Question 8

6b. In the N1 mode, is it possible to control n2 RPM speeds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but the thrust lever position/angles will be mismatched (not close to aligned) for N2 speeds

Question 9

6c. In the N2 mode, is it possible to control N1 RPM speeds?

Accepted Answer

Yes, but the thrust lever position/angles will be mismatched for N1 speeds

Question 10

6d. What should be done to automatically go from N1 mode -to- N2 mode?

Accepted Answer

Select both engine speed switches OFF -or- Reduce power < 79% N1 

note: this could cause a rapid increase in engine RPM and RPM or ITT limits could be exceeded

Question 11

7. What would happen if the right engine speed switch was selected OFF during climb out on the CRJ 200?

Accepted Answer

this could cause a rapid increase in engine RPM and RPM or ITT limits could be exceeded

Question 12

8. When do you need continuous ignition?

Accepted Answer

1) T/O & LNDG contaminated RWY 
2) T/O with crosswind component >10 knots (200 only) 
3) moderate or heavier rain 
4) moderate or heavier turbulence 
5) in vicinity of T-storms

Question 13

9. When will continuous ignition be automatically activated?

Accepted Answer

Stall: when high AOA is approached both ignition systems are energized until the airplane attitude is corrected

Question 14

10. When does the thrust lever auto-retard on the CRJ 200?

Accepted Answer

Whenever Thrust Reversers in transit -or- inadvertent deployment of TRs

Question 15

11. What does the UNLK light mean on the TR panel?

Accepted Answer

indicates reversers not locked. A TR emergency stow system is installed to stow an unlocked thrust reverser. Selecting the UNLK switchlight directs 14th-stage bleed air to the PDU to stow unlocked reverser

Question 16

12. L(R) REV UNSAFE caution message means?

Accepted Answer

a)Thrust Reverser is unsafe to arm in-flight b)TR lever deploy switches have failed in a commanded deploy state but thrust reversers are not locked and are not armed

Question 17

13. Normal N1 thrust is displayed on ED1 in what color? Flex Thrust?

Accepted Answer

Normal N1 = Cyan 

Flex N1 = Magenta

Question 18

14. When do we check engine oil, how much oil can you add?

Accepted Answer

3 min - 2 hours after engine shutdown you can add up to 2 qts. if any of these limits are exceeded then dry motoring is required

Question 19

15. if needed, when can you add oil?

Accepted Answer

15 min - 2 hours after shutdown

Question 20

16. When do you have to dry motor after adding oil?

Accepted Answer

1) you add more than 2 qts oil 
2) oil has been added after 2 hours from shutdown 
3) airplane has been cold soaked for >8hrs at <= -30 degC. dry motor for 60 sec
