38
Q

Where is the landing gear HORN CUT button (used to silence the landing gear warning tone) located?

A

on the outboard grip of both control yokes

39
Q

What is used to raise the landing gear if the landing gear downlock release level fails to release in flight?

A

Downlock release button

40
Q

When turning the aircraft on the ground, you can cause the nose wheel to caster beyond 25 degress (up to _____ deg) by applying rudder, differential power, and differential braking.

A

45 degrees

41
Q

During the gear extension sequence, when does the main landing gear lower?

A

After the inboard gear doors are fully open

42
Q

How are the uplock assembles released during emergency gear extension?

A

43
Q

What is the maximum allowable altitude for inflight gear extension?

A

20000 feet MSL

44
Q

What must be true for the anti-skid system to operate?

A

The power brake system must be functional and the anti-skid control switch must be in the ON position

45
Q

What does a transducer do?

A

Electrically sense a change in wheel rotation speed and provides data to anti-skid control box

46
Q

Locked wheel protection is available above what tire speed?

A

14 knots

47
Q

What three positions does the anti-skid control switch have?

A

ON, OFF, TEST

A

the only indication is on the hydraulic gauge iteself

64
Q

In the event of loss of total hydraulic pressure, what should you do?

A

Emergency gear extension, no-flap landing, expect landing distance to increase 90% over computed 30-flap landing distance, consider reducing ross weight to lower approach and landing speeds
