B757 Flight Controls Flashcards
Why does the Yaw Damper become INOP?
- Fault
- switch off
- IRS not aligned
How many spoilers per wing?
6
SPEEDBRAKES
- Flaps are in the landing position
2. RA 800 feet or below
Which are the takeoff flap positions?
1, 5, 15 & 20
Alternate flaps switches do what?
- Arms the LE or TE flap alternate drive unit
2. Shuts off hydraulic power to both the flap and slat drive systems
AUTO BRAKES - DISARM
- Disengages the auto brake system
2. Releases brake pressure
Which hydraulic systems supply pressure to the Rudder?
All three
What does the Rudder Ratio System do?
Limits Rudder deflection at high speeds.
Which hydraulic system powers the Rudder Ratio Changer?
Left Hydraulic System
When will the speedbrakes deploy if they are not armed prior to landing?
On the ground when either thrust lever is moved to the reverse idle detent.
What happens to the Slats and Flaps @Flaps 1?
- Slats move to the midrange
2. Flaps extend to 1
What does the Auto Slat System do?
Automatically extends the slats from the midrange to fully extended landing position during a Stall Warning.
When do the Slats move to the landing position?
Flaps 25
Flaps Load Relief is armed when and does what?
Flaps are extended to 30 - armed
Airspeed placard Limit exceeded
Flaps retract to 25 position then back once exceedence
TRAILING
EDGE
- Flap Disagree commanded position
- Flap asymmetry
- Flap lever not in a detent for an extended period
- Flap Load Relief is INOP
Hydraulic power shut off with disagree or asymmetry
LEADING
EDGE
- Slat disagree with commanded position
- Slat asymmetry
- Hydraulic power is shut off
What happens when either the ALTN LE or TE button is pushed?
- Arms the LE or TE alternate drive unit
2. Shuts off hydraulic power to both LE and TE drive units
Is any asymmetry or Load Relief protection available when using ALTN extension?
Only LE have asymmetry protection using ALTN
When do slats extend to landing position with ALTN extension?
Flaps 20 selected
How do you override a Jammed Control ?
- Sufficient forward pressure or
Sufficient aft pressure - Column disconnects
- Use free control column for pitch inputs
