How does the Sub-Idle Fuel Control Unit work?
A fuel pressure signal from the High Pressure Pump Governor is given to one side of a spring-loaded diaphragm assembly. A reference pressure from the LP fuel pump is fed to the other side. The resulting pressure difference moves the diaphragm and meters the fuel to achieve a desired N2 speed up through ground idle.
Which ECA lane has priority?
The lane indicating the lowest fuel flow setting.
What job does the ECA have during start?
Provides a signal indicating N1 is rotating at 100 RPM and in the correct direction thereby illuminating the READY light.
How much useable fuel does the fuel system contain? How many gallons of fuel are trapped (unusable)?
427 Gallons / 11 Gallons
Under what two circumstances do the boost pumps automatically turn on?
- GTS operation
2. When engine speed is above 42%, the generator is on, and the ENGINE switches are set to ON.
When does the fuel caution light illuminate?
When a float switch in the negative G compartment indicates useable fuel falls below 350 lbs
Correct range for emergency oxygen?
1800 - 2500 psi
How much exposed chrome should be showing on the nose gear strut? main gear struts?
Nose - 3.25 inches
Mains - between 7/8ths of an inch and 1 & 7/8ths inches.
How many degrees AOB is the Break Turn Stall?
70 - 80
How many degrees AOB in the Min Radius Turn?
85
What type of fuel system does the T-45 have?
Flow scheduling with acceleration control.
When does F PRES illuminate?
When there is an insufficient pressure differential across the fuel pumps.
GENERATOR WARNING
- Confirm Engine Operation
- GEN switch - RESET
If Generator resets and voltage returns to normal:
- CONTR AUG switch - RESET, then back to all
- Continue normal operations
If GEN fails to reset or voltage is abnormal you would continue through diagnosing bad battery and return for landing. Call strike to read the book or read book yourself.
HYD Caution
break out the book
- Airspeed - Below 300 KIAS
- Hyd Gauges - Monitor
If HYD1 failure is indicated - Land as soon as practical
Before Landing: Airspeed - Below 200 KIAS EMER FLAPS switch - DOWN LDG GEAR handle - DOWN EMER GEAR handle - DOWN ANTI-SKID switch - OFF BRAKES - DO NOT TEST MAKE SHORT FIELD ARRESTED LANDING
What 8 things are lost with HYD1 below 1500 psi
Landing Gear Normal Extension Flaps Normal Extension Slats Speed Brakes NWS Launch Bar (extend) Normal Brakes/Anti-skid Arresting Hook (retract)
VFR straight in distance and altitude
Configure prior to 5NM and 1,000 MSL.
“Begin descent as appropriate to intercept the desired glideslope”
Altitude at the 90 in a PA
1,500’ AGL & 175 KIAS
Airspeed and altitude at the 45 in a PA
slowing to 160 on final and 1000 AGL
PA Abeam Distance
1 to 1.5 NM
Difference between nose high UA’s above/below 150 KIAS
> 150 - smoothly roll inverted to nearest horizon
<150 - maintain neutral aileron and rudder. Push the nose over to maintain an AOA between 5-10 units. Hold until nose falls through the horizon to capture 150.
