Q

What is the function of the landing gear transfer valve during gear retraction when #1 engine RPM drops below a limit value that is less than idle

A

?

2
Q

When does the landing gear transfer unit operate (aircraft airborne)

A

?

3
Q

How is wheel rotation stopped during gear retraction

A

Nose wheel by snubbers and main wheels by auto- hydraulic braking

4
Q

How is the landing gear extended manually

A

Individual manual extension handles release up locks

5
Q

Which conditions are necessary to use the nose wheel steering

A

“A” system pressurized, gear lever in DOWN position, nosewheel steering switch NORMAL

6
Q

Which hydraulic system supplies pressure for normal brakes

A

System “B” for all main wheel brakes

7
Q

How does the ANTI-SKID system control normal braking when a single wheel skid is detected

A

Modulates pressure to the individual wheel brake

8
Q

Autobrakes are available with a system “B” failure as long as the alternate brakes are operational

A

False

9
Q

What does a momentary AUTO BRAKE DISARM light indicate when RTO mode is selected

A

Successful automatic self- test

10
Q

A successful test of the Autobrake RTO feature is indicated by

A

After the RTO position is selected, the AUTO BRAKE DISARM light illuminates briefly and extinguishes

11
Q

What occurs during a rejected takeoff between 60 and 90 knots with RTO selected

A

Autobrakes will not be applied; AUTO BRAKE DISARM light illuminates

12
Q

Autobrakes may be disarmed after landing by

A

All answers are correct

13
Q

What occurs if a landing is made with RTO selected

A

No automatic braking, AUTO BRAKE DISARM light comes on

14
Q

When would braking with only accumulator pressure occur

A

With loss of “A” and “B” system hydraulic pressure

15
Q

What is the hydraulic pressure source for the alternate brake system

A

Hydraulic system “A”

16
Q

How is the alternate brake system activated

A

Automatically when “B” HYD pressure is low

17
Q

While setting the parking brakes, the ANTI-SKID INOP light illuminated. This indicates

A

A malfunction in the parking brake system

18
Q

Auto Brakes are available

A

With “B” system pressure

19
Q

Brakes should not be applied until after touchdown

A

True

20
Q

A Landing Gear Transfer Unit provides a backup hydraulic power source to

A

Retract the landing gear in the event #1 engine fails on takeoff

21
Q

What is the maximum speed at which a pilot may extend the landing gear

A

270 kts

22
Q

Is the RTO position of the autobrakes required for takeoff if the autobrakes are operational

A

Yes

23
Q

A check of the brake wear indicators is valid when the parking brake is

A

Set with hydraulic pressure

24
Q

When the aircraft is towed, the ____ should be off or a steering lockout pin must be installed

A

“A” system pressure

25
Q

With failure of both “A” and “B” hydraulic systems, approximately what will the brake pressure indicator read when no more accumulator braking is available

A

1000 psi

26
Q

What is the maximum nosewheel turning angle in either direction that can be commanded by the rudder pedals

A

7 degrees

27
Q

In flight , with the landing gear up, a warning horn that can not be silenced with the HORN CUTOUT will sound

A

Anytime the flaps are at 25 degrees

28
Q

What is the maximum speed at which the pilot may retract the landing gear

A

235 kts

29
Q

The gear is down and locked with three green lights. What is the speed limit

A

320 kts

30
Q

When must the autobrake RTO feature be selected

A

For all takeoffs with autobrakes operative
