25
How does fuel get to the engine?
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.
26
Where are the fuel system EPs?
3.28-3.32
27
Where is fuel system data contained?
VIT 1, 48, 50
28
When does the ignition unit deactivate?
When the starter is automatically deactivated (end of start cycle at 60% RPM)
29
How are numerical indicators displayed on the HUD?
Green if parameter within normal limits Yellow to indicate caution Red to indicate warning
30
Which VITs show comprehensive real-time engine and system parameter readouts on the HDD?
1, 46, 47, 65
31
Is SAS a closed loop?
Yes
32
Is SAS enabled all the time?
Yes, in all circumstances except extreme emergency
33
Where do you see the warnings for the flight control systems?
HDD heads down display
34
How does the prop control system, control turbo prop engine thrust?
Pitch and RPM
35
In flight op mode pitch control passes oil from the propeller governor to what?
The propeller
36
In flight op mode, the prop governor controls RPMs in response to what input?
Speed and throttle lever
37
The DEEC controls your fuel flow in response to what?
The Prop
38
What does negative torque sensing do?
It senses engine failure and partially feathers prop blade to provide relief through the DEEC
39
What does the speed lever set?
RPM
40
How do you know if you have a speed control failure?
You don't get enough RPM, it would be inadequate
41
If you have an oil leak, would it impact your variable pitch prop?
Yes
42
What 3 things does the fuel system do?
Provides fuel to the engine Monitors system parameters Responds to control commands
43
What do the electric fuel pumps do?
Pumps fuel from the header tank to the engine
44
What controls the solenoid valves?
The RCM
45
How does a fuel flow sensor work?
It tracks the fuel used, by calculating the number minus the given fuel
46
Where does fuel jettison from?
The main dump valve is on the header tank return line, the backup valve is located on the return manifold
47
What are three ways you could get a low header tank pressure?
A leak An open return manifold A feeds failed closed
48
When can you turn hold modes off
Above 50kts
49
What heading hold control methods are there?
Control stick or HDD input
50
Default SAS, what axis does it work in?
All 3
51
Should you deactivate SAS?
Only in an extreme emergency
52
Airspeed preference mode, if it's climbing or descending, what is the aircraft going to attempt to fly?
Airspeed has priority, nose down
53
Aileron tip stall active between??
5-9 degrees AOA
54
Autopilot sensor failure is talking about what?
EGIs failure
55
What parameters can you control in preprogram missions?
``` Airspeed Alt IFF Route of flight Payload AV transmitter ```
56
Does preprogram mode limit your AOA ability?
Yes
57
Emergency mission diamond waypoints are what colour
Red
58
You upload and op mission, where would you check it?
VIT 17
59
If an aircraft goes lost link while on an op mission, it will go to the emergency mission unless ...
Lost link OK is selected for the leg its on
60
Where are the IFF antennas
Top and bottom of fusalarge
61
IFF mode two is for what?
Military air traffic
62
How do you get to the different IFF modes?
The tracker display
63
As per your SOPS IFF has to be set to what at all times?
MP Control
64
R2-10 what kind of radio is it? And what frequency does it use?
VHF/ UHF, 30-400
65
How should secure comm sound, and what happens if it drops?
