  1. Initial Ground Training Non Routine Flight Operations (NRFO)

  2. Elements 1) Non-Routine Flight Operations (NRFO) • The classes of NRFO • Explanation of crew requirements • Qualifications required for NRFO operation • One Engine Inoperative Ferry Flights (NRFO III )

  3. Non-Routine Flight Operations (NRFO) Non-Routine flight operations are defined as operations and procedures that require special procedures and operations not found in the normal flight operations profile. They are classified into two categories; NRFO II and NRFO III. All flight crewmembers upon completion of initial Baltia training are qualified as NRFO II. Additional training is required to attain a NRFO III qualification.

  4. NRFO II Operations • NRFO II Operations include: • Maintenance Acceptance Check Flight • Landing Gear Extended Flights This NRFO qualification is achieved by attending a 1 hour familiarization course during Baltia Basic Indoctrination. All qualified crewmembers are categorized as NRFO II qualified.

  5. NRFO III Engine Inoperative Ferry One Engine-inoperative ferry flights are to be flown only by Flight Instructors, Check Airmen, or Highly-Qualified aircrews designated in writing by the Director of Flight Operations. Qualification requires a 2 hour ground school with a simulator qualification.

  6. NRFO II Maintenance Acceptance Flight • Completed in accordance with the Baltia Air Lines Maintenance Acceptance Check Flight checklist • Ground test lasts approx. 2 – 3 hours. • Test flight lasts approx. 3 hours

  7. NRFO II Landing Gear Extended Flights • Extended overwater operations are prohibited • RVSM Operations are prohibited • Max Operating Altitude – FL300 • Flaps – 10 • Performance data located in the PHB

  8. NRFO III Engine Inoperative Ferry • Flown only by Flight Instructors, Check Airmen, or Highly-Qualified aircrews designated in writing by the Director of Flight Operations • Maintenance Preparation Requirements • Weather Assessment • Aircraft Performance Calculations

  9. Ferry Flight Procedures Special Flight Permit • Operations Specification Paragraph D084 • Limitations • Flight Operations • Only flight crewmembers and persons essential to operations of the aircraft shall be carried aboard during ferry flights • Minimum Necessary Operating Weight + Fuel Load • No Revenue or Air Freight • Airworthiness Directive • Company Operating Specifications & Ferry Flight Permit

  10. Responsibilities and Authorities • The Chief Maintenance Inspector • Director of Maintenance Operations • Director of Flight Operations • Flight Operations Personnel • Flight Dispatch

  11. Three Engine Ferry Procedure Maximum Airspeed Do not exceed the following airspeed limits: • Maximum airspeed limitation is 320 KIAS or 0.85 Mach. • If icing conditions are encountered, reduce speed to 270 KIAS or 0.80 Mach. Performance • Due to minimum control speed limitations for takeoff speeds, runways with a corrected length (actual length corrected for slope and wind) must be at least 6,000 feet for ferry flights with an outboard engine inoperative. • The performance data in the PHB covers the regulatory requirements for a one engine inoperative ferry flight in accordance with 14 CFR 91.611. The inoperative engine may be wind-milling, locked rotor, partial locked rotor, or idling.

  12. Three Engine Ferry Procedure The takeoff weight is limited by the most restrictive of the following: • Determine the one engine inoperative maximum runway limit gross weight from the Custom Navtech Runway Performance page. • Determine the one engine inoperative maximum climb limit gross weight from Custom Navtech Runway Performance page. Takeoff Configuration • The inoperative engine must have the thrust reverser deactivated. • The engine may be inoperative or operated at idle thrust. • All air conditioning packs must be off for takeoff.
