  • 2. 

    The thrust limit is computed by:

    • The FMGC according to the AP/FD mode.

    • The ECU according to the thrust lever position.

    • The ECU according to the AP/FD mode.

    • The FMGC according to the ECU order.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The "THR LVR" message displayed on the FMA indicates:

    • Throttle levers are in the climb position.

    • Thrust levers are not set to the required takeoff thrust.

    • Thrust levers are set for approach and landing.

    • Throttle levers are not in the idle position.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    If the "REV" message appears on the FMA during the takeoff phase, it means:

    • Reversers are not stowed properly.

    • Reverse thrust is prohibited in this phase of flight.

    • Thrust reversers are deployed.

    • Reverse thrust is selected.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    On ground the automatic start sequence is:

    • Start valve opens, ignition starts when N2 > 16% when N2 > 50% start valve closes and igniter off.

    • Start valve and LP fuel valve opens, ignition starts when N2 > 16%, HP fuel valves open when N2 > 22% when N2 > 50%, start valve closes and igniter off.

    • Start valve and HP fuel open when N2 > 22%, start valve closes when N2 > 50%.

    • Start valve opens, ignition starts when N2 > 16% LP and HP fuel valves open when N2 >22%. When Eng Mode Sel. set to NORM, start valve closes and igniter off.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    “LVR CLB” flashes white on FMA, if the throttles are not in CL position when:

    • The A/C is at lift-off.

    • The landing gear is retracted.

    • When the aircraft is on the ground and the throttles are set to the climb detent position.

    • The A/C is above the altitude of thrust reduction.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    "SPEED BRK" message displayed on the FMA means:

    • Speed brakes are not functioning properly.

    • Speed brakes are deployed.

    • Speed brakes are retracted.

    • Speed brakes are armed and ready for deployment.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    ASYM amber message (FMA) means:

    • One thrust lever is set out of climb notch (both engines running).

    • Asymmetric power is established due to FADEC malfunction.

    • Asymmetric power is established due to TLA resolver fault.

    • Alerts the pilot about an asymmetric flap deployment, affecting lift and drag during approach and landing.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    MCT amber message (in the left part of the FMA) means:

    • Throttles are not in MCT position after engine failure when speed is > green dot (VFTO).

    • Throttles are not in MCT position after engine failure in flight.

    • Indicates that the engine's maximum continuous thrust has been exceeded, potentially causing engine damage.

    • Indicates a malfunction in the aircraft's engine control system, resulting in reduced thrust output.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    What does the "LAND" message on the FMA indicate during approach and landing?

    • Aircraft has descended to a certain altitude for landing.

    • Landing gear is down and locked.

    • Landing clearance has been received from ATC.

    • Aircraft is cleared for landing.
