Q

How would a functional check of the left wing SBY pump be conducted?

a. Ensure the Inner tank quantity is above 1,000 kg, check Main pumps are selected ON, then select the STBY pushbutton to ON, check positive pump pressure on the FUEL page
b. With the main and standby pumps selected ON and, no PUMP LO PR message displayed, open the crossfeed valve. This creates a momentary pressure drop within the fuel delivery system and the standby pump operates.
c. Ensure the Inner tank quantity is above 1,000 kg, check Main pumps are selected OFF, then select the STBY push button to ON, check positive pump pressure on the FUEL page.

A

c. Ensure the Inner tank quantity is above 1,000 kg, check main pumps are selected OFF, then select the STBY pb to ON, check positive pump pressure on the FUEL page.

Q

What is the fuel feed sequence in normal operations?

A

Fuel is always fed to the engines from the inner tanks. The sequence is as follows:

  1. Each inner tank empties down to 4000kg
  2. Trim tank fuel transfers to the inner tanks
  3. Each inner tank empties down to 3500kg
  4. Outer tank fuel transfers to the inner tanks

It always must end up in the inner.
Trim to inner, outer to inner.
