Instruments 1-46

Question 1

The ______receives pitot/static air inputs and develops airspeed, altitude, and climb rate parameters for use by the navigation and flight instrument systems

Answer 1

air data computer (ADC)

Question 2

The air data computer provides air data corrected for temperature, position or
instrument error.

Answer 2

False. It does not

Question 3

The ADC provides air data outputs to the following instruments/systems:

Answer 3

ASI
Altimeter
VSI
EFIS
Transponder
TAD
Overspeed warning system
TAS
PMU
GPS
AHRS

Question 4

A ____________ indicates maximum operating airspeed.

Answer 4

striped red and white barber pole pointer

Question 5

Mach information is blanked

below _____ Mach.

Answer 5

0.40

Question 6

What are the STANDBY FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS?

Answer 6

Standby mechanical attitude, altitude, airspeed, and turn/

bank indicators and compass

Question 7

The standby instruments are normally powered by the _______

Answer 7

battery bus

Question 8

In event of a battery bus failure, the standby instruments are
powered by the _____

Answer 8

auxiliary battery

Question 9

Standby instrument lighting can be controlled by the light panel on the left side of the cockpit, when til AUX battery is powering the system?

Answer 9

False. Standby instrument lighting operates at a fixed level when the auxiliary battery is powering the system.

Question 10

The standby attitude indicator operates from the auxiliary battery during a main battery
electrical failure, and retains sufficient energy in the gyro to provide accurate pitch and roll indications within ____ for a period of ____ minutes after all electrical power.

Answer 10

6°; 9

Question 11

If the auxiliary battery, is lost together with the battery, the standby ATI will stop functioning immediately.

Answer 11

False. It will provide accurate pitch and roll indications within 6° for a period of 9 minutes after all electrical power, including the auxiliary battery, is lost.

Question 12

When should the ST BY ATI be caged and locked

Answer 12

Whenever power is to be applied to, or removed from, the standby attitude indicator

Question 13

How can you determine if there is no electrical power being supplied to the standby attitude indicator?

Answer 13

a red off flag, placarded OFF,

will be visible on the left side of the indicator

Question 14

In the event of a main battery/electrical failure which has required the use of the auxiliary battery, when will the OFF flag show?

Answer 14

the OFF flag will remain out of
sight until the auxiliary battery fails. Once the flag is visible
after auxiliary battery failure, the indicator will be operable
for at least 9 minutes.

Question 15

At altitudes below zero feet MSL, what is shown in the standby altimeter?

Answer 15

NEG is displayed in the 10,000-foot counter

Question 16

Turn rate information is displayed whenever the off flag is not visible on the instrument
face. How is the off flag indicated?

Answer 16

As a red dot in upper left corner of the indicator

Question 17

Slip/skid information is always available since the slip/skid indicator is mechanical and requires no electrical power.

Answer 17

True

Question 18

The standby magnetic compass is only accurate when?

Answer 18

during level, unaccelerated flight. Errors may be introduced by turning, acceleration, or deceleration.

Question 19

What is the digital clock timer’s operating range?

Answer 19

From 1 second to 99 hours and 59 minutes

Question 20

A recording accelerometer in each cockpit displays instantaneous normal acceleration (G load) from____
to _____

Answer 20

-6 G; +10 G

Question 21

A difference of up to, but not including,_____ between the accelerometers in the front and rear cockpit is acceptable

Answer 21

1 G
