service bulletin
SB 36-13 is pre mod (duckt leak)
How is DC and AC power generated in the aircraft
2 x 400amp 28V DC starter/gen
2x 150amp 28V DC Aux gen
1x APU gen same as starter gen (400amp 28vdc)
AC power from 2 inverters
Can you start the aircraft without the battery?
No all starts must be a generator assisted start therefor the battery is required.
No batt= no start
Aircraft fuel amount?
437US Gal each side (1660L , 2927lbs)
total = 874 US gal (3321L, 5854bls)
meaning of NL and NH
low pressure
high pressure
Cabin pressure and altitude?
7psi
sea level up to 16800ft
Control actuation?
controls
flaps
Aileron and elevator are both cables
Rudder is hydraulic with manual reversion and hydraulic trim
Flaps are electrically controlled and hydraulically actuated.
Pitot and static sources?
3 pitot static combinations
how many autopilots?
1 autopilot but 2 guidance computers
Certification altitude?
32,000ft
Rwy distance factors for dry and wet rwy?
1.43 dry
1.67 wet
Isa temp deviation Altitude per degree
Calculating density altitude
120ft
Standard call out for Pilot flying or Captain during failure
“I have Control, Identify, Cancel”
“_____ QRH”
Loss of Hydroulics Flap setting approach speed adjustment
Flap 45 normally is 116kts
0-15 Flap VREF45+35 (eg151)
15< VREF45 + 10 (eg126)
No antiskid landing factor
increase distance by 2.65 (0-15 flap)
MEL Categories?
Deferable by :
B= 3days
C= 10days
APU types?
all Garats AA versions
Max wind limits
Tailwind 10kts
xwind 30kts
Aircraft is operated under what Part?
FAR part 25
Nose wheel angle of deflection
50deg
What does TMM stand for?
Turbo machinery module
What is the difference between Nearest Suitable and Nearest Practical Airport?
Nearest suitable basically means land now but on a runway that can take your aircraft.
Nearest practical means land soon but you have more options (call ops, maintenance available, refuel?)
What’s the difference between the PW118 engine variants
PW118 lower temp limit (33deg)
A , B models (42,48deg)
Temperature limit difference.
Describe Vfs
Final segment speed take off with critical engine inop.
MEL codes (O) and (M) stand for?
(O) = operational
(M) = Maintenance action (some are pilot approved)
When writing a defect the word ‘inoperative’ means.
That system is not 100% functioning.
eg
if a light is broken it is inoperative
if the light is on but at the wrong time then it is also considered inoperative.
After takeoff and in the climb what value should you set the power levers to?
T6 value of 710-720’C until reaching 14,000ft then set as per the chart.
