Step 1. Refer B727 manual page 2-14. Maximum FL EAST is FL370 @ ISA-5.
Step 2. Refer B727 manual page 2-14. Optimum GW for FL370/LRC is 59800 kg.
Step 3. FBO required to burn off is 67000 kg - 59800 kg = 7200 kg.
Step 4. EMZW is half way between current GW and Optimum GW = 63000 kg (rounded).
Step 5. Find TAS, GS, FF, and SGR data as in above profile.
Step 6. Divide FBO required (7200 kg) by SGR (7.274) to get distance. In this case 990 nm past YPAS.

FAQ 1. Why does optimum GW not effected by ISA Dev → Answer: Because as temperature changes it
effects fuel flow and TAS to almost the same extent so they cancel each other out, and SAR re-mains about the same. Optimum FL gives the best SAR, which is the fuel flow/TAS relationship.

FL370 EMZW calculation.
Mach 0.84 SAR 10.3
TWC (49 x .02) - 0.98
Approx SGR 9.32
So EMZW = 60, 284 kg - (483nm/2 x 9.32) = 58T ROUNDED.
FF at 58T/FL370/M 0.84/ISA+3 = 3802 kg/hr.
Zone FBO = 483 nm x 7.121 kg/nm = 3439 kg.
Check rough EMZW was okay → 60284 -(3439/2) = 58565 →
So in this rare case the EMZW of 58T was not quite right—59T
would be used by CASA. See revised profile below.
Step 1. Answers ‘a’, ‘b’, and ‘c’ are
Easterly IFR Levels so reject these first.
Step 2. Refer B727 manual page 2-14.
FL Optimum GW
350 67, 400 kg
Current GW 68, 000 kg
310 81, 600 kg
Step 3. Assess which levels optimum GW is closest
to the current GW of 68, 000 kg.
In this case FL350 is optimum FL at this weight.

FAQ 1. Using the rough SAR/SGR to get EMZW,
does it often happen that the guessed MZW is different to the actual EMZW. → Answer: Very rarely. Perhaps only check through actual FOB/2 if your rough MZW was close to call (within say 150 kg), otherwise get on with the next question.

FAQ: What is the difference between Indicated Mach Number (IMN) and True Mach Number (TMN, or just M) ? → The difference is the sum of instrument error and position error, which for the Flight Plan-ning exam is said by CASA to be nothing, so read IMN as M, or TMN—they are the same thing !
FAQ Which operations do we carry traffic holding for ? → ANSWER: Normal ops only.
FAQ: According to the ERC charts FL310 is an easterly level, how come the answer is FL310 if heading West ? → ANSWER: Because the B727 is not approved for RVSM operations. See introduction for the levels you can use in the exam.

FAQ 1. Can CASA ask you to find upper/lower stall buffet speeds expressed as TAS or Mach number ?
→ Answer: Yes so best look back over your Navigation notes and get active on the circular Nav computer.
FAQ 1. Why am I so far out on my TAS (about 30 kt faster) ?→ Answer: This could be because you
took the Indicated Outside Air Temp (IOAT) as True Outside Air Temp. IOAT (also called TAT) has ram rise error in it due to compressibilty at high altitude. You should use the green curved IOAT line on your navigation computer here, not the book TAS figure, or the speed of sound scientific formula. Check out you navigation course notes on this.

Answer ‘d’ best.
1. We do NOT care what the weather is like at Alice Springs or Mt Isa if we are planning to return to Cairns
following the loss of an engine, which is the scenario this PNR is based on. It is Cairns weather that will effect
our operation in this case.
2. Watch out for distance from MUSEY to Cairns - it is NOT shown on ERC chart ... refer TAC chart. CASA
should have quoted this in the question but take your TAC charts in just the same as this has been missed from
exam question before.

FAQ We are going to Alice Springs, so why do we not take out the holding fuel for Alice ? Answer → Be-cause the assumption is we will return to Cairns if we lose an engine at the PNR. In this case you will not be going on to Alice Springs. The PNR2E defines the last point in the journey where a safe return to Cairns is possible - this is what CASA want. It may be a data entry question, not multi-choice.

Fuel Summary • Refer page 1-3 for max speed/FL info. FL290 available IFR.

• Use nav computer to get Mach No, then TAS from it.
Answer ‘a’ best !
Note:
• The climb tables are based on a BRW, NOT a weight at 1500 ft as you will likely be given in an exam
question. Add 400 kg to the 1500 ft GW to get an “as if” BRW. In this case BRW would be 68000 kg.
• Use normal ops climb data, then reduce this by the climb from RWY to 1500 ft. Then add the 1 Eng Inop
penalty from page 2-2a.
• FR now 1500 kg for 1 Inop, and no final taxi fuel required as we are in flight at the fix.

FAQ 1. Do we use 45 minutes (3300 kg) for pre-fight fixed reserve
for Yaw Damper Inop ? Answer → Yes, but if you lost a yaw damper in flight only 30 minutes (2250 kg).
2. How did we know the airports did not need weather holding → Answer because they were CAVOK.
3. How did you get Mach number and TAS ? Answer → Using the Yaw Damper max IAS at FL290 from page 1-3 and outting this opposite FL290 on you nav wheel you see Mach 0.73 in the Mach window. Use speed of sound formula thereafter to get YD inop TAS.

Q17.
WORKING:
Step1. Find track from Horn Is to Port Moresby. It is about 071°M. Use the current actual spot wind for the
flight out to the PNR not the forecasted one which could be hours old. It gives a tailwind component of about
81 kt. For any other levels and sectors use forecasted winds.
Step 2. Note that from the DPNR you are to track back to Horn Island and then turn toward Cairns.
Step 3. Track/distance to Cairns is on average 146°M/425 nm.
Step 4. Get the wind component/Isa deviation at FL330 OUT to the PNR. It is about 81 kt TAIL/ISA.
Step 5. Note the GW was not given at the Horn Island fix, but at BRW Darwin. The flight fuel used from Dar-
win out to Horn Island is given as 7130 kg so GW overhead Horn Island must be 70000 kg.
Step 6. The FOB was given at the Darwin RAMP, not at Horn Is, so the FOB at Horn Is must be 18500 kg -
(taxi out fuel 150 kg + flight fuel out to Horn Island of 7130 kg) = 11220 kg.

FAQ 1. Why did we add 400 kg to 1500 ft GW ? Answer → Because
climb data is based on BRW, not 1500 ft GW. Adding 400 kg gets you a notional BRW as if you released the brakes at that GW. Enter the climb tables with BRW rounded to nearest even tonne.
2. Why was FR 1500 kg added (not 2250 or 3300 kg) ? Answer → Because this was a 1 Engine inop scenario.
3. Why FL185 for climb wind/temp data used. Answer → because for 1 Inop climbs that is the nearest level we will round to (2/3rds the way to TopC which is typically in mid 20’s ! Inop.)
FP exam 1 working/page 10. © Copyright Avfacts 2013. All rights reserved worldwide.
See next page →→
Step 7. Subtract the depressurised reserves to get
flight fuel. Remember the PNR assumes a diver-
sion to Cairns, so Port Moresby or Darwin
weather is not a consideration in this case.
Step 8. Find LW at Cairns. It is current GW at
Horn Island (70000 kg) less the flight fuel of 8970
kg = 61030 kg.
Step 9. Being asked to cruise depressurised at a FL
is a bit of tricky wording. Always use FL130 when
depressurised irrespective of the track direction.
Step 10.Now work backwards from LW at Cairns
(61030 kg) to get GW overhead Horn Is on the
return from the PNR. See flight profile. The fuel
in the box is the GW overhead Horn Island going
out to the PNR, less the GW on return from it. In
this case 70000 kg - 66089 kg = 3911 kg.

Step 3. Find FBO required before the start can be commenced. (i.e. 77000 kg - 75000 kg) = 2000 kg.
Step 4. Find EMZW. It is half way between GW at LINGO and Start climb weight. EMZW is 76000 kg.
Step 5. Find cruise data to get SGR, then divide the FBO required of 2000 by the SGR. This gives distance to
step climb position. (Refer flight profile below). Step climb position is 182 nm. Answer ‘d’ best !
LINGO
77000 kg
EMZW
76T 200 kg
FL350
ISA+5
FL310 60 kt/ISA
182 nm
TopC GW 74800 kg
Start climb
GW 75000 kg
Note well:
• CASA say you may disregard distance and any time lost in the climb.
• CASA would use ISA+6 for fuel flow and TAS calculations, which would make no real difference to the
model answer as the extra 1° effects TAS and fuel flow figures roughly equally. Try it for yourself.
• CASA would use ISA+5 to check max GW on arrival at FL350 - in this case 74800 kg.
• Be carful to ADD the step climb fuel to the max arrival GW at FL350 - so 74800 + 200 kg, not minus 200
kg. Getting this wrong means a double error and would put you about 40 nm off the model correct answer,
and CASA would likely have an answer to cater to this classic mistake..

Answer
Step 1. FOB at BR Perth is 19893 kg - Taxi Out 150 kg
= 19743 kg. Step 2. Calculate flight fuel.
Item Kg
FOB at BR 19743
FR 1 Inop 1500
Perth Wx hold 2000
Final taxi 100
110 % fuel 16143 kg
100% fight fuel 14675 kg
Step 3. LW Perth = BR 80000 - flight fuel 14675 kg
= 65325 kg.
Step 4. Find descent data (page 4-3) FL 220/70000 kg.
17.5 min/600 kg/79 anm/65 gnm.
Step 5. Find TopD GW.
LW 65325 kg + 400 + 600 = 66325 kg.
Step 6. Find EMZW TopD to below TAPAX, then
calculate the cruise data for this zone. It is 5, 593 kg.
Step 7. GW at end of box below TAPAX is
TopD GW of 66325 kg + 5593 kg = 71918 kg.
Step 8. Find fuel in box starting at TAPAX.
TAPAX GW 73933 kg - GW below TAPAX 71918 kg = 2015 kg.
Step 9. Find EMZW OUT/HOME.
