Q

When in the descent mode, will the cabin altitude controllers program a positive or negative pressurization at touchdown?

A

Small positive pressurization at touchdown

17
Q

What action would allow manual operation of the pressurization system?

A

Turn both outflow manual switches to ON
All automatic cabin altitude control functions are bypassed

18
Q

When does the cabin altitude controller switch controllers?

A

-Automatically selects A or B on alternate flights

-Automatically switches if other fails

19
Q

How many cabin altitude controllers are provided?

A

Two, A and B, both control both outflow valves

20
Q

How can you gain manual control of the landing altitude?

A

By pushing the (LDG ALT) switch
Set by rotating Landing Alt Selector
MAN displayed on primary EICAS
EICAS advisory message LANDING ALTITUDE displayed

21
Q

What does the Zone System (SYS) Fault Light indicate?

A

1)Temp Zone Duct Overheat or ZTC fault has occurred

2)Master trim air valve failed closed

3)Master trim air valve closed and pack air continues to flow

22
Q

Under what conditions would High Pressure (HP) air be used?

A

Descent
Other low power setting operations

23
Q

How would you isolate a bleed air duct secetion in the event a bleed duct leak is detected?

A

-Close respective isolation valve
-Close engine bleed air valves

24
Q

What does a bleed duct isolation (ISLN) VALVE light indicate?

A

Isolation valve position disagrees with switch position

25
Q

When bleed air pressure is available the Engine Bleed Air Switches control which valves by system logic?

A

PRV
HP Bleed Valve
Engine Bleed Air Valve

26
Q

Describe the general function of pressure regulating valve (PRV)

A

Prevents damage to ducting and equipment downstream by limiting bleed air pressure

27
Q

Under what conditions would intermediate pressure (IP) be used?

A

High power setting operations

28
Q

With a right duct isolated, how will this affect hydraulic systems

A

-Hydraulic demand pump 4 off
-No hydraulic system 3 and 4 reservoir pressure

29
Q

With ECAS message STARTER CUTOUT 1,2,3,4 shown, will NAI be available for the related engine?

A

NO

30
Q

With a right duct isolated, how will the affected leading edge flaps extend?

A

Right wing LEF electronically in secondary mode, expect EICA - FLAPS PRIMARY
