Autopilot NORMAL and CUTOFF

Answer 3

NORMAL - normal operating position

CUTOFF - deactivates control wheel trim switch operation

NORMAL - normal operating position

CUTOFF - deactivates autopilot stab trim operation. autopilot disengages if engaged

Question 4

Flap load relief system 40 and 30

Answer 4

When flaps set to 40, flaps retract to 30 if flaps 40 airspeed is exceeded. extends to flaps 40 when airspeed is reduced

When flaps set to 30, flaps retract to 25 if flaps 30 airspeed is exceeded. extends to flaps 30 when airspeed is reduced

YAW DAMPER Amber light

Answer 5

yaw damper not engaged

Question 6

SPEED BRAKE DO NOT ARM Amber light

Answer 6

1. abnormal condition exists in system
2. test input in system
3. illuminates when wheel speed is below 60 kts and speed brake lever is not down
4. light deactivates when speed brake lever is DOWN
