Q

How does fuel get to the engine?

A

From header tank via 2x electric fuel pumps connected in parallel.

Operate independently for 20min with 10sec overlap on switchover.

Equipped with check valve to prevent reverse flow when 1 pump activated.

A

1, 46, 47, 65

31
Q

Is SAS a closed loop?

A

Yes

32
Q

Is SAS enabled all the time?

A

Yes, in all circumstances except extreme emergency

33
Q

Where do you see the warnings for the flight control systems?

A

HDD heads down display

34
Q

How does the prop control system, control turbo prop engine thrust?

A

Pitch and RPM

35
Q

In flight op mode pitch control passes oil from the propeller governor to what?

A

The propeller

36
Q

In flight op mode, the prop governor controls RPMs in response to what input?

A

Speed and throttle lever

37
Q

The DEEC controls your fuel flow in response to what?

A

The Prop

38
Q

What does negative torque sensing do?

A

It senses engine failure and partially feathers prop blade to provide relief through the DEEC

39
Q

What does the speed lever set?

A

RPM

40
Q

How do you know if you have a speed control failure?

A

You don’t get enough RPM, it would be inadequate

41
Q

If you have an oil leak, would it impact your variable pitch prop?

A

Yes

42
Q

What 3 things does the fuel system do?

A

Provides fuel to the engine
Monitors system parameters
Responds to control commands

43
Q

What do the electric fuel pumps do?

A

Pumps fuel from the header tank to the engine

44
Q

What controls the solenoid valves?

A

The RCM

45
Q

How does a fuel flow sensor work?

A

It tracks the fuel used, by calculating the number minus the given fuel

46
Q

Where does fuel jettison from?

A

The main dump valve is on the header tank return line, the backup valve is located on the return manifold

47
Q

What are three ways you could get a low header tank pressure?

A

A leak
An open return manifold
A feeds failed closed

48
Q
