Q

What is the function of the flap load relief system?

18
Q

What does the STAB TRIM light during trimming indicate?

A

Stabilizer trim is moving at half the normal rate

19
Q

If speed brake lever is not armed, will the spoilers deploy upon landing?

A

Not automatically, but they will deploy when thrust reverse is actuated

20
Q

Which hydraulic system powers stabilizer trim?`

A

Left and center

21
Q

Which hydraulic system operates the flaps

A

Center

22
Q

What may be indicated when the “AILERON LOCKOUT” light comes on at high speed?

A

One or both of the outboard ailerons failed to lockout

23
Q

Why should the speedbrake lever be moved from ARMED to DOWN detent if the AUTO SPDBRK light illuminates?

A

To prevent inadvertent speedbrake extension in flight

24
Q

With the AUTO SPDBRK light illuminated can the speedbrakes be operated manually?

A

Yes

25
Q

What is the function of the rudder ratio system?

A

Decreases maximum rudder pedal input from the pilot to reduce rudder deflection as airspeed increases

26
Q

Which hydraulically powered rudder actuator is automatically depressurized when the RUDDER RATIO light is illuminated?

A

Left

27
Q

What is indicated by an illuminated SPOILERS light and SPOILERS on EICAS

A

One or more spoiler panel has failed to operate

28
Q

Which hydraulic systems power the left and right yaw damper respectively?

A

Center and left

29
Q

What action can be taken to possibly regain full stabilizer trim rate when the STAB TRIM light is illuminated?

A

Alternate stabilizer trim

30
Q

What systems must be available to the yaw dampers to pass a yaw damper test?

A

One aligned IRS and hydraulic power for the system tested

31
Q

During normal operation, at what flap oisition do the leading edge slats extend to the landing position

A

25

32
Q

What does UNSCHED STAB TRIM indicate?

A

Stabilizer movement without a trim signal

33
Q

If the stabilizer moves in the opposite direction as commanded by the autopilot will the UNSCHED STAB TRIM light illuminate?

A

Yes

34
Q

The loss of which hydraulic system prevents auto speedbrake deployment?

A

Center

35
Q

Hydraulic power for the elevators is provided by which hydraulic system?

A

Left, center and right systems

36
Q

What overrides all other stabilizer trim system inputs?

A

Alternate stabilizer trim switches

37
Q

What is the stabilizer trim rate during autopilot operation?

A

Half the electric trim rate

38
Q

How can stabilizer movement be stopped?

A

Move the control column in the opposing trim direction

39
Q

What does the rudder ratio light illuminated inflight mean?

A

Control inputs to the rudder are not being correctly modified

40
Q

What is indicated when the right yaw damper switch has an ON indication and the INOP light is illuminated?

A

A fault exists in the system

41
Q

What is indicated by the AUTO SPDBRK light when the system is armed?

A

A fault exists which may cause inflight extenstion

42
Q

How are the flaps operated after a failure of center hydraulic system?

A

The alternate flap system operates via electric motors

43
Q

What is significant to note about the alternate flap system?

A

Takes four times longer than normal. About 2mins to go from flaps UP to flaps 20. Alternate Flap positions of 25 and 30 are not used because it would take too long in the event of go-around

44
Q

Is flap load relief available with alternate flaps?

A

No
