Q

What will give a level 3 LANDING GEAR NOT DOWN alert? can the alert be cancelled?

A

when gear is not down and locked
aircraft is in app config (less then 1000ft RADALT, and either flap greater then 23 degrees or thrust lever less then in TO)

Can be canceled via MWL if caused by thrust lever. If by flap, cant be canceled unless putting gear down

Q

Where and when is nose wheel steering switched on and off?

A
  • when selecting landing gear down in flight will be restored 5 second after touch down
  • when conducted alternate gear extension
  • towing switch
  • max 76 degrees exceeds
21
Q

What happens if steering inputs exceed normal limits?

A

system disengages and will connect once tiller deflection is reduced.

22
Q

A
  • when selecting landing gear down in flight, nose steering is disabled will be restored 5 second after touch down
23
Q

What hydraulic system powers which brakes?

A

1 powers alternate

2 powers normal

24
Q
