SkyWest KV Questions with correct
Answers

What is the preferred problem solving / decision making model? - answer DIGME
1) Define the problem
2) Identify potential solutions
3) Gather data
4) Make a decision / implement
5) Evaluate

Common cues of task saturation - answer Little communication
Missing/incorrect radio calls, callouts, checklist items
Abbreviated briefings
Acting without verification

What are the three AOV levels? - answer Low
Medium
High

Low AOV - answer Both pilots maintain a "relaxed" awareness of flight path.
Essential tasks can be completed by both the PF and PM, but not at the same time.
Focus here should be on preparing to enter heightened AOV later in flight.

Medium AOV - answer At least one pilot must prioritize flying/taxiing the aircraft
above everything else. Non-essential tasks can only be completed by the PM.

High AOV (Provide examples, both on the ground, and in the air) - answer BOTH
pilots need to prioritize flying/taxiing above all else. If essential tasks MUST be
completed, it is done by the PM.

Ground:
Complex taxi instructions
Runway crossing
Approaching a runway
Runway/route verification

Air:
Last 1000' to level-off
Initialization of a climb/descent
Below 1,500 AGL (approach/landing)
Near terrain

,What is CRM? - answer The effective use of all available resources to assure safe
and efficient flight operations

What are the key concepts of CRM? - answer Workload management
Situational awareness
Communication

What are the three levels of task saturation? - answer Green: Ahead of the aircraft

Yellow: Slightly behind the aircraft. MUST BE VERBALIZED.

Red: Significantly behind the aircraft, situational awareness is lost, flight path
management plan is unclear. IMMEADIATE CORRECTIVE ACTION IS APPLIED.

What is tunelling? - answer Occurs when task saturated, restricts scanning the full
range of cues, causing the individual to focus narrowly on what is deemed to be the
most threatening cues.

For example, a crew becomes overly focused on an unusual message on the EICAS
and focus is taken away from monitoring the flight path.

What is information bias? - answer A distorted evaluation of information. An
individual begins to seek extra information, even when enough has already been
gathered, to confirm a previously held belief.

Fix: Once enough information has been gathered to make a decision, it is time to
implement the choice.

Define the levels of automation - answer Level 0: Manual control, no FD guidance.

Level 1: Manual control, FD guidance.

Level 2: Control on the flight control computer through the Flight Control
Panel/Guidance Panel

Level 3: AP engaged in a lateral and vertical mode. Control is provided with commands
entered in the FMS.

What is a standard takeoff path? - answer No turn shall be commenced below 1000'
AFE in IMC.

FRA is 1000' AFE.

What is a standard engine failure takeoff path? - answer Engine failure occurs below
1000' AFE

,VMC: Climb straight ahead to 1000' AFE. Return visually to land or perform an IAP

IMC: Climb straight ahead to 1000' AFE, then commence turn to NAVAID/heading. Hold
at NAVAID or proceed on heading until a minimum safe altitude is reached, radar
vectors are available after 1000' AFE.

Engine failure occurs above 1000' AFE

VMC: Return visually to land or perform an IAP

IMC: Hold at NAVAID or proceed on heading until a minimum safe altitude is reached,
radar vectors are accepted when available.

What is a simple-special engine failure takeoff path? - answer A turn to a
NAVAID/heading is required before 1000' AFE.
FRA remains at 1000' AFE, unless otherwise specified.

VMC: Mandatory until 1000' AFE

IMC: If radar vectors are not available, comply with the special procedure until 3000
AFE, and then proceed on course

What is a complex-special engine failure takeoff path? - answer An engine failure
procedure too complex to fit in the simple-special table, mandatory under IMC and
VMC. Found in performance handbook.

What are the ERJ TO crosswind limitations? - answer 38 (Dry)
31 (Wet)
20 (compact snow)
18 (standing water, slush, dry/wet snow)
12 (ice)
12 (wet ice)

What are the ERJ landing crosswind limitations? - answer 38 - 6 (DRY)
31 - 5 (WET)
20 - 4 (COMPACT SNOW)
15 - 3 (SNOW)
12 - 2 (STANDING WATER)
8 - 1 (ICE)
PROHIBITED

Are gusts considered when it comes to ERJ TO/landing crosswind limitations? - answer
No.

What is the minimum cleared runway width for the ERJ 175? - answer 80'

, What is the minimum runway width? - answer 100'

What if a NOTAM includes a "REMAINDER"? - answer The usable width must be
greater than 80'

What if the remainder is covered in less than 1/8 inch in depth of contamination? -
answer The entire runway is considered to be the width of the runway (less than 1/8
inch of contamination does not change width).

If a runway is 100% covered in 1 inch of dry snow, but does not specify a remainder,
are operations authorized? - answer Yes, the entire runway is considered to be the
width of the runway, as long as contaminants on the runway do not exceed operating
limitations.

What if a NOTAM is issued, but, there is no remainder? - answer The entire runway
is considered to be the width of the runway

What is there is a NOTAM issued that includes a remainder, but includes a runway
treatment (sanded, swept, de-iced)? - answer The entire runway is considered to be
the width of the runway

RCCs - answer 6 - BA Dry
dry

5 - BA Good
frost
wet/damp
1/8 or less inch depth of:
slush
dry/wet snow

4 - BA Good to Medium
compact snow (-15 C or colder)

3 - BA Medium (BRAKING DECELERATION OR DIRECTIONAL CONTROL IS
NOTICEABLY REDUCED)

slippery when wet
dry/wet snow (any depth) over compact snow
> 1/8 inch depth:
dry/wet snow
Compact snow (warmer than -15 C)

2 - BA Medium to Poor
greater than 1/8 in depth of water/slush
