FLIGHT MANUAL Flashcards
What kind of engines does the C130 have?
T56-A-15
Where are the acceleration bleed valves located?
5th & 10th stage compressors
When are the acceleration bleed valves open?
Below 94% RPM
What RPM does the prop brake engage?
<23% rpm
What is the negative torque required to decouple the engine?
-6000in lbs
What is the difference between the FCU and the TD control system?
Fuel control unit: schedules FF based on engine inlet temp, pressure, RPM and throttle position.
The TD control system refines for TIT and throttle positions when not in NULL, provides overtemp protection
When does ignition occur on engine start?
16%rpm (off at 65%)
What triggers a prop oil flag?
Prop oil below 2 quarts blw normal in pressurised sump
What is the low pitch stop and what prop angle does it act from?
On the ground?
Beta flags occur at?
Prevents an engine overspeed due low pitch angle by stopping blade angle decreasing below 23 deg in flight.
It should retract in the ground range unless already pitchlocked. (Beta flags at 15-17deg)
What triggers the NTS light?
Negative torque exceeds -1260lb +/- 600inlbs
What does the utility hydraulic system furnish? (5)
Landing gear
Flaps
Brakes
NWS
A portion of the surface control boost system
What does the auxiliary hydraulic system service? (3)
Ramp
Emergency brake system
Emergency NLG extension
What is the Nav altimeter tolerances?
+/- 60ft of airfeild elevation
+/- 100ft of other altimeters
> +/-75ft of airfeild, consider US
How many fire extinguishers are provided for the cargo compartments?
3 (1 for the flight deck)
What is the liferaft capacity on the C130?
33
How often do the ELT batteries have to be replaced?
every 5 years
How far does the AC have to be from fuel stores, open fuel lines or refuelling before Hf ground transmissions can be made?
200ft
What is the normal engine start order?
3, 4, 2, 1
What is the approximate HF and SATCOM hazard area?
20ft
What is the radar hazard area?
15ft
What are the engine shutdown conditions?
Engine Fire
Turbine overheat
Nacelle overheat
Uncontrollable power
Certain prop malfunctions
Uncontrollable rise in TIT
Uncontrollable drop in oil pressure
Uncontrollable rise in oil temp
Unusual vibration or roughness
Throttle control failure
Excessive visible fuel leak
What speed is the prop brake designed to hold at?
up to 200KIAS
What is important to note about fuel dumping?
Not blw 5000’
Not in a circular pattern
CMDS master off
What are the methods of gear operation? (5)
OMENM
Overriding LDG gear selector valve
Manual gear extension (main gear)
Emergency hydraulic extension (nose gear)
NLG manual extension (free fall)
Main gear extension after normal and manual failure
