What is the Boldface for PITCH TRIM/ROLL TRIM/RUDDER TRIM RUNAWAY?
TRIM INT & A/P DISENGAGE SWITCH - PUSH AND HOLD
In a situation in which the aircraft is stuck above 20 degrees nose high, and you are losing airspeed, what flight controls might you actuate to maintain level flight and stop the decreasing airspeed?
Roll into a 45 degree steep turn to either direction to stop the significant airspeed loss
True or False, in a runaway trim situation, pressure from the CP side on the yoke will help to alleviate pressure on the pilot’s side and make the airplane easier to fly?
true
In what critical phase of flight may the trim horn accidently be actuated by the PNF that is not indicative of runaway trim?
touch and go procedures
True or False. During a runaway trim condition, it is necessary for both pilots to actuate the trim interrupt switch in order to ensure the runaway condition is stopped.
false
How many seconds of continuous trimming are required to activate the trim horn?
5 seconds
Can the autopilot be utilized when the pitch trim switch is in emergency?
No, it uses the same servo as the emergency pitch trim.
Can the autopilot be utilized when the pitch trim switch is in disconnect? If so, why?
Yes, it uses the same servo as the emergency pitch trim.
If a pitch or roll trim failure is NOT due to runaway trim, what should you do?
First attempt to trim using the opposite control wheel pitch and roll trim switch to determine if it is a malfunctioning switch
If any trim axis has been disabled IAW the checklist, what should you do?
land as soon as practical
What should you do if you get the AP PITCH TRIM FAIL annunciator?
Disengage the autopilot and be prepared for an out of trim condition.
How is aircraft performance affected if the speed brakes fail to retract?
Roll forces with speed brakes extended will increase, higher throttle settings will reduce range, and landing distance will increase due to increased threshold speed.
True or False? With jammed flight controls, a controllability check should be performed.
true
When a controllability check is run for a jammed flight control surface, in which case must speeds associated with the check be flown on final/touchdown?
If adequate aircraft control cannot be maintained during the controllability check down to touchdown speeds.
What is the maximum altitude for flight without the Yaw Damper?
FL 280
According to the IFG, what is the straight in contact approach reference for runway 13C?
racetrack
According to the IFG, what is the straight in contact approach reference for runway 31C?
prison farm (4 white barns)
