In the event that ACARS is not available and the TLR is invalid

When should a Live Calculation be used to obtain takeoff and/or landing performance data? It must always be used to provide a backup for the ACARS FDP It must be used to provide data for reduced thrust takeoffs as that is the only means to obtain that information In the event that ACARS is not available and the TLR is invalid

Flight crews must manually check that the actual aircraft weight and CG are within limits

When the Flight Crew arrives at the aircraft, the logbook and DI log must be checked for current MEL/CDL deferred items. The aircraft will be loaded in accordance with all MEL/CDL restrictions. These restrictions, however, do not appear and are not accounted for, on the load manifest. The current weight and balance system is not capable of incorporating such restrictions and will produce a load manifest as long as the load falls within the normal unrestricted limits. What must flight crews do when restricted by an MEL/CDL item? Flight crews are not required to do anything to address this issue as maintenance personnel will electronically check that the actual aircraft weight and CG are within limits Flight Control will verify that the restrictive MEL/CDL item is removed so that aircraft weight and CG are not limiting Flight crews must manually check that the actual aircraft weight and CG are within limits

Advise ATC of a minimum fuel state by declaring "MINIMUM FUEL"

The stall can occur prior to stall warning if the contamination is significant

Which of the following is true regarding the effects of frost, ice, or snow on aircraft performance? The aerodynamic characteristics of the aircraft may remain substantially the same so the aircraft take off in ground effect A higher than normal pitch attitude will allow the aircraft to climb safely out of ground effect The stall can occur prior to stall warning if the contamination is significant
