{Flight Safety's General PC-12 Questions} Flashcards
What is the first step taken after a CAWS warning ENG FIRE and voice callout is received on the ground?
PCL idle
What action should be taken to prevent smoke or fumes from entering the cockpit as a result of an engine fire in flight?
ECS emergency shutoff - pull
Due to the composite construction of the engine cowling and possibility of toxic gases during a fire, what must be shut off when a fire condition is suspected?
ECS emergency shutoff - pull
What are you looking for when you push the FIRE test button?
6 lights - 2 caution, 2 warnings and 2 CAWS lights
What indication can be expected if the engine fire detection system fails?
A master caution CAWS - FIRE DETECT
True or False: The type of flight control system in the PC12 is electrically actuated, hydraulically boosted?
False
In pusher ice mode, when will the shaker and pusher activation occur?
8 degrees lower Angle of Attack, or approximately 10 degrees faster
When does Pusher Ice Mode advisory CAWS illuminate?
Inertial Separator OPEN & Prop Heat ON
How will the stick pusher function in pusher safe mode?
Stick pusher will activate based on the lower flap when asymmetrical flap deflection happens.
Stick pusher is inhibited for how long after takeoff?
5 Seconds
What is required for stick shaker and pusher to operate?
One AoA computer activates the shaker, Two AoA computers activate the pusher
What are the indications in the cockpit when approaching a stall?
Shaking, beeping with mushy controls
What effect will stick pusher / shaker activation have on the Autopilot?
Autopilot disengages
True or False: The flaps on the PC12 are electrically actuated, single piece fowler.
True
Which flap positions are available?
0 - 15 - 30 - 40
What action must be taken if you get PUSHER on the ground and persist after completing the test?
No FLY
What action must be taken if the PUSHER CAWS illuminates when the aircraft is in flight and remains on after testing?
The aircraft is no longer stall protected - Follow the QRH
Which conditions could result in FLAPS illuminating in flight?
Asymmetrical flap deflection
After a FLAPS CAWS message appears what is the first step to take?
Check the Flaps CB - follow the QRH
FLAPS and PUSHER CAWS illuminated together means:
Flaps are asymmetrically deployed
What does a Green PUSHER ICE MODE CAWS mean?
Pusher computer set to ice mode
