Q

If a main wheel tire is damaged on an NG during takeoff roll, braking of the main gear during retraction may be affected.

What protection is provided to prevent damage to components in the wheel well?

A

A fitting is provided in the wheel well ring opening.

If a spinning tire with loose tread impacts the fitting, the affected gear stops retracting and free falls back to the down position.

Q

What happens when the LANDING GEAR lever is placed in the OFF position?

A

Hydraulic pressure is removed from the landing gear system.

17
Q

In the CL, how can you verify the main landing gear position?

A

Main Landing Gear
- Use the viewer in the main passenger cabin located adjacent to the third window behind the aft overwind exit and one foot left of center.
~ You must lift the carpet to sight through the viewer.
~ The WHEEL WELL switch light switch should be placed ON

-

18
Q

What visual indications are you looking for when checking the main landing gear via the viewer?

A

If the gear is down and locked the red paint stripes should be aligned on the down lock and the side struts.

19
Q

How can you verify landing gear position in the NG?

A

The landing gear indicator lights on the overhead panel provide a verification of landing gear position.

20
Q

How can the gear be manually extended?

A

Manual gear extension can be attempted by pulling the manual gear release handles on the floor of the flight deck.

21
Q

What happens when the gear handles are pulled?

A

Pulling the handles releases the unlocks which allows the gear to free-fall to the down and locked position.

22
Q

Is the gear warning horn still available after manual gear extension attempt?

A

YES

The landing gear warning horn is deactivated only when all gear are down and locked.

23
Q

Is normal gear available after manual gear extension?

A

YES

Would have to do manual extension because of loss of system A. System B is still fine which powers normal brakes.

24
Q

Is nose wheel steering available after manual gear extension?

A

Yes,

Unless the gear lever was stuck in the OFF position

25
Q

Are there any immediate action items for Wheel Well fire?

A

No

26
Q

Is Wheel Well fire on the QRC?

A

No

27
Q

Could the wheel well fire indication be coming from the nose wheel well?

A

No

The nose wheel well does not have a fire detection system.

28
Q

Does the main wheel well have a fire extinguishing system?

A

No.

29
Q

Is the Wheel Well fire system a single or dual loop detection system?

A

Single loop.

30
Q

What is the maximum operating speed with the landing gear extended?

A

320 KIAS

31
Q

If the Wheel Well Fire light does not extinguish with the landing gear extended, what are some things you must consider?

A

Among other things:

  - landing at nearest suitable airport
  - range / fuel burn
  - possible passanger evacuation
32
Q

Where is the evacuation checklist located?

A

Back cover of the QRH and the YOKE

33
Q

Where can you find more detailed information regarding a planned passenger evacuation?

A

AOM Chapter 5

34
Q

Pertaining to an emergency / evacuation, If time allows, what are some things the CA should brief the FAs on?

A

Type of emergency

Time available

Who will notify PAX to evacuate (CA or FA)

Exits to be used

Possible adverse conditions

35
Q

Is full completion of the evacuation checklist mandatory?

A

NO

Full completion or sequence is not mandatory but good judgement and an evaluation of the situation must be considered.
