Abnormal Avionics Operations Flashcards
What happens to the T-38C warning/caution/advisory system when the MDP fails or is OFF?
The visual/aural alerts would be inoperative since they are MDP-generated, but the existing caution and warning system (MASTER CAUTION light and caution light panel) would still operate normally
True or false: The visual ALTITUDE, FIRE, and GEAR warnings displayed on the HUD/MFD are also accompanied by voice messages
True
What happens when the visual and aural GEAR warning indications when activated?
Only the aural gear warning tone is removed by pressing the silence button next to the gear handle
True or false: A blinking CAUTION appears on the HUD and MFD whenever the MASTER CAUTION light illuminates, and is removed when the MASTER CAUTION light is pressed
True
Which EGI advisory messages on the HUD is displayed during a GC alignment on the ground to indicate the EGI is still in the coarse alignment phase, and that the aircraft should not be moved?
WAIT
True or false: Only the most recent alert is displayed on the HUD/MFD when there is more than one alert activated at a time.
False
After all electrical equipment/switches have been turned OFF for an electrical fire, what switch configuration would be correct if you want to operate the UHF radio only?
Turn battery switch ON, AAP mode switch to UHF B/U position, and UHF backup panel knob to ON.
True or false: With just battery (DC) power (i.e., AC generators and transformer rectifier units are inoperative), electrical components on the non-essential DC bus are not powered, to include both UFCPs
True
Which key avionics components are inoperative with a total MDP failure?
HUD and UFCP
What happens when the RPM or oil pressure exceeds the operating limits or the EGT displays an overtemperature?
- The pointer on the applicable EED display turns red
- An ENGINE caution is generated on the HUD / MFD and an “ENGINE, ENGINE” voice message is transmitted in the headset
