The FEEL DIFF PRESS light indicates

Answer 11

excessive differential hydraulic pressure is sensed in the elevator feel computer

Question 12

how does the Mach Trim system engage and disengage?

Answer 12

Automatically as a function of airspeed

Question 13

When MACH TRIM FAIL is illuminated only when the master caution annunciator recall is activated it means

Answer 13

a single channel has failed in the mach trim system

Question 14

The Elevator Feel Shift Module increase hydraulic system A pressure to the elevator feel and centering unit during a stall for what purpose?

Answer 14

To increase the forward control column force to approximately double the normal feel pressure to try to assist in not stalling the plane

Question 15

There are two mode on the main electric and autopilot stabilizer trim,

Answer 15

high speed flaps extended

low speed flap retracted

Question 16

if the autopilot is engaged actuating either pair of stabilizer trim switches

Answer 16

disengages the autopilot

if takeoff is attempted with the stabilizer trim outside the take off limits what can one expect

Answer 17

a intermittent horn, (takeoff config horn)

Question 18

If manual trim is used to trim beyond the electrical trim limits can the stab trim be used to return it to normal limits

Answer 18

yes

Question 19

The stab trim main electric cutout switch and the stab trim autopilot cutout switch are provided to allow the autopilot or main electrical trim input to be

Answer 19

disconnected from the single stab trim motor

Question 20

when the control column movement opposes the trim direction what will occur?

Answer 20

The control column actuated stabilizer trim cutout switches stop operation to the main electric and autopilot trim.

Question 21

Switching the Stab trim into OVERRIDE

Answer 21

the electric trim can be used regardless of control column position

Question 22

the speed trim system is a speed stability augmentation system designed to improve the flight characteristics during any operation
