Q

If position is lost from all sensors or is inhibited, FMS goes into?

A

DR mode using AHRS / IRS, heading, airspeed and wind data. (AHRS is not on the circuit breakers it’s the IRS on there)

25
The APU is available to provide power to the system after?
7 seconds after the APU accelerates through 95% RPM
26
Bus Tie Contactors (BTC) connect the APU and or GPU to the
Central DC Bus
27
Generators 1 and 3 provide power to the
left network driven by engine 1
28
Generators 2 and 4 provide power to the
right network driven by engine 2
29
Oder of priorities for the FMS
1. GPS 2. DME/DME 3. VOR/DME 4. IRS
30
During take-off and go-around one electric pump is required for each engine and the APU
Cross feed selector knob must be off for take-off
31
All the pumps are submerged via the
collector box being submerged
32
Purpose of the collector box is to?
prevent cavitation and it keeps the pumps submerged
33
Fuel system low level warning
210-265kg per tank
34
Fuel imbalance on each tank
363kg
35
EICAS caution is removed when the difference is less then?
45kg
36
Bleed air used for various aircraft systems
9th stage – always open | 14th stage – commanded open
37
Fuel cooled oil cooler (FCOC)
Fuel is warmed, oil is cooled
38
The Lubrication system holds
12 quarts of oil (quantity checked on engine t/o data page on the MFD) Always check this along
39
The Store button is pressed
4 times (alt t/o, temp, anti-ice on or off, stores data)
40
Air turbine starter commanded by the FADEC which?
controls the SCV which controls the air turbine starter (ATS) and starts engine.
41
How many FADECs?
2 FADECS A&B (Edna and Gladys) A = 1&2, B=1&2
42
If flaps fail
we can check on the RMU back up page and check the flaps and it will tell us where it has failed.
43
EICAS has a dash when the flaps are?
in transit / moving
44
Air-conditioning
Cockpit = pack one = 60% cockpit 40% cabin | Passenger Cabin = pack two = 100% cabin
45
Cross bleed valve can automatically switch to open
* During APU start * Engine cross bleed start * During ICE encounter
46
During an ice encounter below 24,600ft
the number 1 (left) pack will shut off – it will use its capacity for anti-icing.
47
The Air conditioning system consists of?
Recirculation fans x2 | Gasper fan x1
48
Digital (electric) controller controls the?
Electro pneumatic valve | But slaved to the Electro pneumatic outflow valve is the pneumatic outflow valve.
49
Hydraulic system pumps
2 on each engine (1 electric and 1 mechanical) = 4
50
Hydraulic Fluid amount?
6 litres of Skydrol fluid
51
Quantity and temperature of hydraulic fluid are sensed
at the reservoir
52
Hydraulic Pressure is sensed at?
the manifold
53
Number one hydraulic system has a priority valve to maintain pressure for
aileron and flight controls
54
If the engine driven pumps drop below 1600psi the
electric pump kicks in
55
Electric pump pressure
2900 psi
56
What will the MFD system page show quantity (in a graph), pressure
(3000psi or 2900psi) and electric pump status
57
MFD system page doesn’t show
Temperature
58
Quantity of hydraulic fluid
green above 1 litre and amber below 1 litre
59
Hydraulic pressure range colours
Pressure green is in range, Amber and boxed below 1300psi or above 3300psi
60
if we have Total system failure
nose landing gear doors will open (because they are hydraulically locked up), Emergency brake only, no spoilers (don’t use speed brake)
61
The APU can provide
electrical (electricity) and Pneumatic and it can do it at the same time
62
Normal indications on the EICAS are
Green
63
The APU is controlled by
Electronic sequence unit (ESU) / FADEC | Switched on orange box comes on (3 seconds self-test)
64
Normal APU working load
400amps
65
The APU can provide power when over
95% (wait +7seconds in order to provide power to the buses)
66
The APU can withstand
600amps for 2 minutes | 800amps for 5 seconds
67
Max APU start temp
884 degrees
68
Maximum APU starting limit altitude is
30,000ft
69

37,000ft
70
APU fire extinguisher
On the ground it automatically detects a fire it shuts down after 10 seconds
71
APU fire switch
* Signals ESU to stop (normal shutdown) * Closes APU fuel shutoff valve * Discharges the APU fire extinguisher bottle
