Q

In the event of a Hydraulic leak how does the PES operate

A

Small amount of fluid trapped in the Left system

17
Q

How is the RIGHT system fluid cooled

A

By a heat exchanger located in the right fuel tank

18
Q

How is the Center system fluid cooled

A

By a heat exchanger located in the right fuel tank

19
Q

Which pump in the Center system load sheds and why

A

C2 pump, to reduce electrical loads

20
Q

When does the QTY light illuminate on the Hydraulic panel

A

When quantity less than 0.5

21
Q

When do the letters RF display on the Eicas Status page

A

When Quantity less than 0.75

22
Q

Which pump runs continuously while on the ground and flaps in T/O position

A

Center Air Demand pump and Right Electric Demand Pump

23
Q

When does the PES automatically supply power

A

When failure occures in both Ledt and Center Hydraulic systems

24
Q

How does the PES system function

A

Uses right hyd power to drive PTU.

PTU then pressurizes an isolated portion of the left system to power the PES
