Q

 The propagated wave is direct from transmitting to receiving antenna and does not travel along
the ground. And it is also called line-of-sight transmission disturbances.

Q

give the capability of tuning all communication radios. The
frequencies are tuned by using the 2 concentric knobs.

A

Radio Management Panels

22
Q

operates at 118-135 MHz frequency range.

23
Q

is a digital data link system for the transmission of messages between aircraft and ground stations,
which has been in use since 1978

24
Q

ACARS

A

Aircraft Communication Addressing and Reporting Systems

25
ACARS messages may be of three types based upon their content:
 Air Traffic Control (ATC)  Aeronautical Operational Control (AOC)  Airline Administrative Control (AAC)
26
 Records the conversation of pilots and ambiance sound on flight deck every 30 mins.
CVR
27
records the last 2 hours of the flight crew conversations and communications and aural warnings. It records automatically in flight and on ground when at least 1 engine is running and for 5 minutes after the last engine is shut down.
SSCVR solid state cockpit voice recorder
28
Avoid static electricity discharging noise and ensure a good quality of radio transmission, without interference.

5 per side; 1 maybe missing
32
flap track fairing
3 per wing; 1 maybe missing
33
2 kinds of static discharger
typical trailing edge installation typical tip installation
34
allows the flight crew to communicate with flight attendant or ground personnel.
interphone system
35
The interphone communication system includes:
Flight interphone Cabin Interphone Service Interphone Passenger service
36
ACP There are____Audio Control Panels (ACPs) located next to an RMP. The ACPs control the channel and volume of transmission /reception.
Two are located on the center pedestal, a third one on the overhead panel. In case of a faulty CAPT or F/O ACP, the third occupant ACP can be selected by a manual switch.
37
function makes interphone links between pilots themselves and the ground mechanic at the jack connection on the external power panel 108 VU.
flight interphone
38
Is made of eight service interphone jacks located around the aircraft to facilitate communications between personnel during maintenance operations
Service interphone
39
On ground only, The Landing Gear Control and Interface Units (LGCIUs) send a ground signal to the SVCE INTPH SYS, integrated in the CIDS directors
Automatic mode
40
The SVCE INT OVRD pushbutton, on the maintenance panel, must be pressed. When the SVCE INT OVRD pushbutton is pressed or when the aircraft is on jacks, a ground signal is sent to the CIDS directors.
Manual mode
41
Provides communication between Cabin Attendant and flight crew
Cabin Interphone
42
If the Cockpit wants to communicate to the Flight Attendant.
On the ACP, Push the ATT Button and On call panel, choose what station they want to call. On Cabin, the Area call Panel illuminates Blue (Cockpit call)
43
If the Flight Attendant wants to communicate the flight crew, On their handset, push the cockpit pushbutton.
On ACP, the CAB pushbutton switch illuminates and has aural warnings on Loudspeaker
44
To establish the communication between cabin to cabin.
On the Handset, the crew can call any of the cabin station areas: FWD, AFT and AFT R and ALL
45
give the capability of tuning all communication radios. The frequencies are tuned by using the 2 concentric knobs.
The Radio Management Panels (RMPs)
