Flight Controls Flashcards
The ailerons are controlled via?
Cables connected to the pilots control column.
The roll spoilers are controlled by?
The pilots control column and actuated by the B Hydraulic System.
Aileron Trim is provided by? Which wing?
A Normal and Standby trim motor in the left wing.
The right aileron has a disconnect unit for roll jams. If it disconnects who controls what?
L seat L Aileron
R seat R Aileron
The elevators are controlled via?
Cables that are connected to the control column of each pilot. L seat-L elevator/R seat-R elevator.
If the elevator disconnect is actuated, who controls what?
L seat-L elevator, R seat-R elevator.
Elevator trim is provided by ____ trim motors. Each side has ______ motors.
4 total, each side has 2 motors.
What’s the difference between the slow speed elevator trim motors and high speed elevator trim motors?
What’s the changeover airspeed?
Slow Speed trim motor operates above 200 KIAS.
High Speed trim motor operates below 200 KIAS.
The standby trim switch uses?
A different control circuit to actuate the same trim motors.
The aileron standby trim uses?
A separate standby motor.
The rudder is controlled by?
Cables connected to both pilots rudder pedals.
The rudder is assisted by a servo tab (spring tab) that is active below ______ KIAS.
160, above that it is locked into neutral position.
If the rudder servo tab/spring tab fails to unlock below 160 KIAS, how do you manually unlock it?
A unlock only motor can be activated by a switch on the center console.
Is there standby rudder trim?
No
What controls rudder trim?
A single motor.
The flaps are actuated by which hydraulic system.
Flaps are actuated by the B hydraulic system via two actuators, one on each side of the aircraft.
The LH and RH flaps are connected via?
a shaft
What causes a ‘FLAP AYSM’ amber CAS message and what happens?
Flap positions differ by more than 3 degrees. Flaps are stopped in current position the the ‘FLAP AYSM’ is annunciated.
How many ground spoilers does the aircraft have?
4 (inboard and outboard)
The inboard ground spoilers deploy __ ____ after the outboard spoilers.
2 seconds.
Automatic ground spoiler deployment occurs when what conditions are met?
- Ground Spoilers ARMED (dark)
- at least 45 knots wheel speed sensed by anti-skid control unit
- WOW is sensed by PSEU.
- Thrust levers-IDLE
- Landing gear lever down
Manual deployment of ground spoilers bypasses what requirements of auto deployment?
- wheel speed
2. thrust lever angle
How do you disarm the stick pusher?
Pusher Disarm button on center pedastal.
What does the gust lock protect from movement?
Ailerons, Elevators, Thrust lever beyond taxi power.
Rudder is only dampened from sudden movement.
