Inflight Procedures
Inflight Procedures
SOP’s
If you had an engine failure on takeoff what procedure would you follow?
What would you do in the event of an engine failure below V1? How? Stop the aircraft
Green landing gear lights are inop, how would you know that the gear is down?
First I would ask ATC to confirm if the landing gear is down. If It I down but I have a doubt
about it being locked I would retract it then use the emergency gear extension tu be sure.
You are on a flight from Stansted to Amsterdam and just after T/O you are at your cleared
level of 2000ft when you have a complete radio failure. What are your actions? Fly for 7
mins on same heading, then return to flight plan
Tell me about the radio failure procedures on a SID. Check SID for procedures. If not,
continue sid or fl for 7 mins etc
Normal Procedures
You are flying in a straight line on an airway when your company calls and requests you to
return to base, how will you turn around? Liaise with ATC
If you had to approach the landing gear, where do you approach from? Front or back, not side
If you had to explain to your neighbour what is the difference between a precision and a non-
precision approach. Precision=G/S + LOC. Non-prec=LOC
RVSM? Standing for Reduced vertical separation minima. FL290 < X < FL410.
Requirements: two altitude measurement systems; an automatic altitude-keeping, 1 altitude
reporting Xponder, 1 altitude alerting device)
1. Minimum fuel requirements: Regulations and company policies dictate the minimum
amount of fuel required for each flight, considering factors like distance, alternate airport
requirements, weather conditions, and any potential delays.
2. Contingency fuel: Additional fuel is often carried to account for unexpected events, such as
holding patterns due to air traffic congestion or adverse weather conditions at the destination
airport.
4. Fuel planning: Pilots are responsible for calculating the fuel required for each flight based
on factors like aircraft weight, route distance, expected weather conditions, and air traffic
control restrictions.
During the interview, candidates may be asked about their understanding of fuel policies,
their experience with fuel planning and calculations, and how they ensure compliance with
regulations and company procedures to maintain flight safety.
