Q

How are the main gear tires stopped during gear retraction?

A

Brakes for the Mains, snubbers for the nose

17
Q

How is the gear held up?

A

the main gear is held up with mechanical locks, while the nose gear is held up by an overcenter lock

18
Q

How is the gear held at full extension?

A

overcenter mechanical locks and hydraulic locks

19
Q

When the manual gear release is pulled what happens?

A

the uplocks are released and the gear free-falls down to the locked position

20
Q

How can the gear be retracted after a manual extension?

A
  • close the manual extension door
  • move the landing gear lever to DOWN with hydraulic system A pressure available and then
  • position the landing gear lever to up
21
Q

What does the brake system include?

A
  • normal brake system
  • alternate brake system
  • brake accumulator
  • antiskid protection
  • autobrake system
  • parking brake
22
Q

Will the A system automatically supply pressure to the alternate brake system if the b system fails or is low?

A

yes

23
Q

How is the brake accumulator pressurized?

A

system B

24
Q

If both normal and alternate braking system pressure is lost can the brakes be used or parking brake set?

A

Yes the brakes can be used for several limited applications and the parking brake can be set due to trapped hydraulic pressure in the accumulator

25
Q

How is the alternate braking anti-skid different from the normal braking anti-skid ?

A
  • Normal provides anti-skid for each individual tire

- alternate braking anti-skid is applied to main gear wheel pairs

26
Q

What system provides Autobrake

A

Hyd System B

27
Q

Will autobrakes work with the alternate braking system?

A

No

28
Q

To ARM RTO what conditions prior to takeoff must be met ?

A
  • airplane on the ground
  • anti-skid and autobrake system operational
  • AUTO BRAKE select switch positioned to RTO
  • wheel speed less than 60 kts
  • forward thrust levers positioned to idle
29
Q

Will RTO work if takeoff is rejected prior to 90kts

A

NO

30
Q

What is more effective MAX manual braking or MAX autobrake?

A

Max manual braking

31
Q

Can the parking brake be set with either HYD system?

A

yes

32
Q

The Air/ground system receives logic from sensors on the landing gear. what landing gear and how many sensors are there?

A

2 sensors on each gear for a total of 6
