If the upper display unit fails, the primary engine display automatically moves to either inboard display unit.
False
Departure and arrival prompts are available for the origin airport. Destination airports also have departure and arrival prompts.
False
The supplemental navigation database is accessed by typing SUPP in the scratchpad while on the INIT/REF INDEX page, then selecting the NAV DATA prompt. Access is available on the ground and in flight.
False
If both normal and alternate brake system pressure is lost, trapped hydraulic pressure in the brake accumulator can still provide several braking applications or parking brake application.
True
Antiskid protection is not available with loss of both hydraulic systems.
