H Overspeed: 1166

47
Q

What triggers the emergency lights, how are they powered, and what charges them

A

Emergency lights are triggered by loss of the L main DC bus, they are powered by the emergency bus (if powered) or their own batt packs. The batt packs are charged by the emergency bus.

49
Q

What are the users of the hydraulic system

A

Brakes, Flaps, Nose wheel steering, Gear, Elevator, Rudder, Emergency Pitch trim

50
Q

How many accumulators in the hydro system

A

5 total: 2 on the left, 3 on the right

51
Q

What’s on the left hydro system

A

Outboard brakes, Emergency gear extension, left outboard elevator, right inboard elevator, Left rudder (actuator 1)

52
Q

What’s on the right hydro system

A

Flaps, Inboard brakes, nose wheel steering, nose gear, mains, right elevator outboard, right rudder (2)

53
Q

What’s the only user of the center system

A

Left inboard elevator

54
Q

What’s a velocity fuse/SOV

A

Activated by a massive or rapid fluid loss, the valve closes trying to prevent total loss of fluid

55
Q

If the Left SOV (velocity fuse) closed what would you lose

A

Potentially the emergency gear extension and outboard brakes (if the accumulator was loosing pressure

56
Q

If the Right SOV (velocity fuse) closed what would you lose

A

Nose gear extension/ retractions, Nose wheel steering, Inboard brakes (potentially), and the flaps.

57
Q

Tell me about the C/R Hydro Pump

A

DC powered, one motor driving two pumps Integrated hydraulic package (IHP), one pump runs the center system one pump on standby to support the right system

58
Q

What kind of flaps

A

single slotted

59
Q

What’s the blowback feature of the flaps

A

In an overspeed condition the flaps automatically retract to a safe setting
(Uses pressure sensor)

60
Q

What is AFR

A

Auto flap retract (AFR) automatically retracts the flaps to 15 to help get the weight on the tires and reduce ground roll. They retract at 2x the normal rate signaled by antiskid reaching 25 kts wheel speed

61
Q

What are the 5 PECU input modifications (feelings)

A

-Stick to gearing vs KIAS: reduces elevator travel with increase in speed
-Downspring: Elevator down command for a speed decrease and an up command for speed increase
-Bob weight: Increased stick force with increased g load
-Trim weight vs KIAS
-Flap Movement

62
Q

What are the required conditions for PBIT

A

-<40 KIAS (if over defaults to CBIT)
-L/R gen online
-Weight on wheels

63
Q

Where are the TRU’s located

A

Left and center are on the left side, right is on the right side

64
Q

How is Wild ac converted to dc

A

TRUs

65
Q

Battery low level waring

A

<16 volts

66
Q

How is the landing gear retracted/extended if the right SOV is activated

A

The nose gear cannot be extended or retracted under this condition (emergency extension). The mains are retracted/ extended normally by a signal from the landing gear selector telling a transfer valve to open allowing normal extension and retraction of mains only

67
Q

How many full brake actuations are provided by the brake accumulator

A

6

68
Q

When will the white gear arrows change to amber

A

takes longer than 20 seconds for the gears to reach up and locked

69
Q

What is the purpose of the nose wheel brake

A

nose steering brake is activated by an uncomanded deflection of the nose wheel and limits it to 20 degrees

70
Q

How does antiskid work

A

Compares wheel speeds within the pairs, if it detects slipping it will release the brakes on the skidding tire and its counterpart (left outboard, right outboard) its inoperative below 10 kts and active at 50 kts wheel speed in 3 seconds

71
Q

What supplies pax oxygen

A

oxygen generators (chemical reaction). pulling down the hose activates the flow, and will run for approx 30 min.
