Question 1

Caution regarding operating the weapon bay door when the only source of hydraulic pressure is from the electrically driven hydraulic pumps

Answer 1

Do not operate the weapon bay door on the ground using the flight deck weapon control panel when the only source of hydraulic pressure is from the electrically driven hydraulic pumps. The higher flow rate commanded by the flight deck switch cannot be met with the electric hydraulic pumps and may cause damage to the system.
