One measure of the effectiveness of actions taken by a crew to manage threats is
Select one: whether an undesired aircraft state was avoided the accuracy of the crew's recall of events during debriefing whether the threat was detected in time for the crew to respond appropriately the speed with which the crew acted to manage the threat
.
Which one of the following examples describes an undesired aircraft configuration state?
Select one: icing system not operating in icing conditions. taxiing too fast. incorrect fuel distribution. IAS too low during an approach to land.
When considering the risk any threat imposes you should consider
Select one:
the probability of encountering the threat irrespective of the consequences the seriousness of the consequences irrespective of the probability of encountering the threat the probability of encountering the threat an any stage during the flight the probability of encountering the threat and the seriousness of the consequences.
An example of a latent threat is
Select one: wind gusts exceeding the aircraft's cross wind limitations for landing unexpected high traffic volume in the terminal area undercarriage will not retract in flight poor aircraft equipment design.
The three primary categories of error in the TEM model are
Select one: aircraft handling errors, procedural errors and communication errors navigational error, radio frequency error and navigation aid error crew resource error, air traffic control error and ground handling error loss of heading control, loss of attitude control and loss of airspeed control.
A pilot is put under pressure from his employer to get back to base before his tour of duty expires. This is an example of
Select one: an external threat. a latent threat. an anticipated threat. an environmental threat.
Which of the following would be best described as an internal threat?
Select one: an air traffic controller with a heavy foreign accent. a pilot with a tendency to be over confident. flight into a high traffic density area. a maintenance release that is incorrectly filled in.
Select the item which best describes an internal threat.
Select one:
marginal runway length. pilot complacency. forecast bad weather on a TAF. operations at a non-familiar aerodrome.
A pilot who has planned to cruise at 5,500 feet is given an initial clearance to climb to 4,500 feet in CTA. Because of poor radio reception, he reads back 5,500 feet. This is an example of
Select one: planning error. communication error. procedural error handling error.
Mismanaged threats usually lead to
Select one: diversion from standard operating procedures undesired aircraft states which are then linked to errors aircraft handling errors which then lead to environmental errors errors which are then linked to undesired aircraft states.
A SIGMET is transmitted to a pilot in flight advising of reported mountain wave activity. Select the description which best describes the category of this threat.
Select one: internal, anticipated, environmental. external, anticipated, environmental. organisational, anticipated, latent. external, unexpected, organisational.
Which of the following would be best described as an internal threat?
Select one: operating at an unfamiliar aerodrome. taxiing at an unfamiliar aerodrome with poor taxiway markings. adverse weather. pilot fatigue.
Which of the following is an example of a latent threat?
Select one:
committing a check list to memory. engine failure in flight. a poorly written checklists. an encounter with rime ice
.
Entering the incorrect way-point data while operating in a stressful cockpit environment is an example of
Select one: an environmental threat leading to a configuration error an unexpected threat leading to an expected error an expected threat leading to an unexpected error an organisational threat leading to a committed error
.
A threat that is not immediately obvious to the pilot, such as an undercarriage lever situated adjacent to a flap lever, or manifold pressure and RPM gauges widely separated, is best described as
Select one: a latent threat. an internal threat. an anticipated threat. an external threat.
.
With regard to TEM, a cockpit systems failure warning light is an example of
Select one: a handling error countermeasure a proactive decision making process an undesired aircraft state management device a systemic-based countermeasure.
For the flight crew, the three basic components in the TEM model are
Select one:
threats, flight crew human resources and aircraft states errors, flight crew human resources and undesired aircraft states threats, errors and undesired aircraft states threats, errors and anticipated aircraft states.
A pilot carrying out solo forced landing practice, fails to select the carburettor heat to hot. Carburettor ice forms during the descent and the aircraft fails to climb out normally on the "go around". This is an example of
Select one: a procedural error leading to an undesired handling state. a handling error leading to an undesired icing state. a communication error leading to an aircraft handling state. a handling error leading to an undesired configuration state.
Unauthorised penetration of controlled airspace is an example of an undesired
Select one: air navigation state ground navigation state aircraft handling state navigation configuration state.
With regard to TEM, the use of a checklist prior to take-off is an example of
Select one: a desirable aircraft state a countermeasure a safety tactic a safety state.
Which of the following would be classified as an execution countermeasure?
Select one: pre-flight briefing. planning a flight. modifying the original plan due to changed conditions. cross checking instruments.
A pilot who has failed to apply carburetor heat during a glide has committed
Select one: procedural error communication error execution countermeasure handling error.
When an undesired aircraft state is identified the primary task should be
Select one: identify the error which led to the undesired aircraft state identify and correct the error which led to the undesired aircraft state advise ATC of the undesired aircraft state deal with the undesired aircraft state and return to controlled stabilised flight.
A thorough pre-take off briefing is an example of
Select one: an execution countermeasure a systemic-based countermeasure a planning countermeasure a review countermeasure.
The crew of a heavy jet transport aircraft overran the runway in a heavy thunderstorm. An investigation showed that the company had directed that brakes should be used in preference to reverse thrust at the later stages of the landing roll to protect the engines. The company directive that precipitated this incident is an example of
Select one:
an unexpected error. an external threat. a latent threat. an organisational error.
