16
Q

Is pitch trim motion rate a function of airspeed in both Normal and Backup modes?

A

Yes, in both Normal and Backup, the higher the airspeed – the lower the trim rate, and vice versa.

17
Q

Are roll and yaw trim rate a function of airspeed?

A

No, roll and yaw trim operate at a fixed rate.

18
Q

What are the 3 functions of the Multi-Function Spoilers?

A
  • Roll Spoiler
  • Ground Spoiler
  • Speed Brake
19
Q

What criteria must be met for the Multi-Function Spoilers to deploy or remain deployed with the SPEED BRAKE switch in the OPEN position?

A
  • Flaps UP
  • Thrust Lever below MAX CRZ
  • Airspeed > 125 Knots
20
Q

What criteria must be met for the Ground Spoilers to arm with weight on wheels?

A

Wheel speed above 50 knots

21
Q

What criteria must be met for the Ground Spoilers to arm with weight off wheels?

A

WOW > 10 sec

22
Q

When armed, what criteria must be met for the Ground Spoilers to deploy?

A
  • Both thrust levers less than 24° (halfway between IDLE and CRZ)
  • Weight on wheels OR Wheel speed > 50 knots
23
Q

Below what wheel speed are the Ground Spoilers disarmed?

A

45 knots

24
Q

Do the Ground Spoilers retract in the event of a bouncing touchdown?

A

No, the Ground Spoilers remain deployed for 10 seconds following weight off wheels, unless the thrust levers are advanced above 24°.

25
Q

Do the Ground Spoilers retract automatically in the event of a touch-and-go maneuver?

A

Yes, the panels retract if any thrust lever is advanced above 24°.

29
Q

Which component commands the Spring Loaded Rudder Booster (SLRB) activation?

A

FADEC

30
Q

Describe the function of the Spring Loaded Rudder Booster (SLRB).

A

When activated, a hydraulic actuator extends two springs, providing force to assist the pilot in moving the rudder to its limit.
