RVSM
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| BOM/RVSM: The letter W in the flight plan, in field 10 digit stands for ? | RVSM |
| BOM/RVSM: RVSM stands for? | Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum |
| BOM/RVSM: RVSM is divided in to 2 categories | 1. General procedures valid in any RVSM airspace 2. Procedures specific to a certain airspace |
| BOM/FCOM2/RVSM: Requirement for RVSM ops | 1 transponder, 2 ADR (standard QNH,within 200ft), 1 FWC, 2 PFD, 1 AP, FCU (for target altitude selection), (TAF-PAF) |
| BOM/RVSM: when within RVSM airspace, AP - ?, altitude overshoot limit off ? and a OM Max deviation of - ?, every hour check indications within ? | on all times, 150ft, 300ft, 200ft |
| BOM/RVSM: ATC must be informed if ? (5) | 1. failure or both AP 2. Loss of altimeter redundancy 3. Discrepancy of altitude indications without a means to determine which is valid 4. severe turbulence 5. abnormal situations preventing maintenance of assigned altitude |
| FCOM2/RVSM: RVSM flight levels with a separation of ? | FL290 to FL410 / 1,000ft |
| FCOM2/RVSM: while on the ground, the crew must check that the ADR1 and 2 altitude indications on the PFD do not differ from the airport elevation by more than ? Also check on the flight plan that the letter ? is in it | 75ft (when compared to the airport QNH) note: 1hP = 27ft / W = aircraft is RVSM capable |
| RVSM procedure for equipment failure with no communication? | instead of 300ft like in weather deviation without comms, use 500ft |
| RVSM comms: Are you RVSM approve? (ATC) | Affirm RVSM / Negative RVSM |
| RVSM comms: If flight cannot maintain RVSM | Unable RVSM due to : turbulence or weather or equipment failure |
| RVSM comms: If flight is now ok to fly RVSM again | Ready to resume RVSM or Report able to resume RVSM |
| BOM/RNP: What does RNP stand for? | Required Navigation Performance - performance based navigation. Requires alert sensing equipment and accurate flying within RNPXX airspaces |
| BOM/RNP: Goal of RNP? | Basic Navaids mandate large safetly margins that saturate the airspace, the use of RNAV and glass cockpit minimize margins, accomodate more traffic and save fuel via direct track without flying over radio navaids |
| BOM/RNP: Defn, airspace, routes where RNP has been established. Aircraft must meet or exceed these qualifications | RNP Airspace |
| BOM/RNP: Defn, RNP-X, X means? This must be met with a probability of ? | accuracy in nm, 95% |
| FCOM2: In order to match the RNP, the FMS must have an accuracy of ? on the prog page / If GPS is available do we need to check the accuracy? Why? | Required (RNP) =/> Estimated Position Error (EPE) on the MCDU/Prog. / No need to check / It is an RNAV flight not dependent on radio navaids |
| FCOM2/FCTM: When GPS not available and accuracy of FMS/MCDU/PROG is low during the cruise, this means that ? during an approach? | Required (RNP) < Estimated Position Error (EPE), cross check, if within 3nm, use Nav and managed lateral guidance or (if greater than 3nm error) fly raw data / limit is 1nm |
| FCOM3: RNP performance capability | Upate with *****FCOM 3 general limitations**** AP/FD on ...etc |
| BOM: Navigation position error limit | 95% of flight time accurate (5% error limit per flight time) |
| BOM: RNP-10 with IRS only time limit? | 6.2 hours |
| BOM: equipment conditions to enter RNP airspace | 2 FMGC / 2 MCDU / 2 IRS / 1 GPS (FMIG) |
| FCOM2: If RNP is entered manually on the Required section of the Prog page, to return the default setting? | It must be re-entered manually |
| FCOM2: FMS1/FMS2 pos diff or Check IRS pos or FM/GPS pos disagree | Use the AP with the navigation correct or if unable to determine which system is correct, then fly raw data |
| RVSM Levels standard unless stated are: | 310, 320, 350, 360, 390,400 |
| If no communication is available, how to deviate from track due to weather? | Within 10nm, turn left or right, no altitude change, outside of 10nm, East, Left, descend 300ft, right, climb, 300ft, West, Left, Climb 300ft, right, descent 300ft. Turn on all lights, transmit on frequency 121.5 on deviation, relay to other aircraft info |
| To get priority due to weather, the call on RVSM is? | Cebu XXX weather deviation request |
| Volmet can be received via ? | HF radio |
