Q

Does Autopilot trim at the same rate as electric or manual?

A

No it trim as at one half the rate as it has only one trim control module.

25
Q

When are the Electric trim switches inhibited?

A

During auto-land or Go-around with multiple autopilots engaged.

26
Q

What are the 2 types of unsched stab trim?

A

Stabilizer moves without a trim signalStabilizer movement is opposite the direction signalled

27
Q

What do the STAB TRIM CUTOUT switches do when in NORM & CUTOUT?

A

NORM- keeps hydraulic supply shutoff open.CUTOUT- shuts off respective Center or left hydraulic system power to the related stab trim control module.

28
Q

What powers the rudder? Can it still operate if two systems are lost?

A

Pedals control 3 hydraulic actuators that move the rudder. Each system powers one. Can still operate if two systems lost but displacement limited.

29
Q

What does the Rudder ratio changer do?

A

Uses airspeed information to vary the amount of rudder displacement providing structural protection for the rudder.LOW SPEEDS= Full displacementHIGH SPEEDS= Limited displacementPowered by the LEFT hydraulic system.

30
Q

What happens if there is a rudder ratio changer fault?

A

Left HYD system automatically rudder actuator automatically depressurises to provide structural protection for the rudder.RUDDER RATIO- EICAS message displays.

31
Q

What does the failure of a one Yaw Damper do?

A

Reduces the total yaw damping authority by one half.

32
Q

What does no white band indicate on the stab trim indicator?

A

Stab trim indicator malfunctions other than power failure.

33
Q

How many ailerons are there?

A

2 each wing- inboard and outboard.

34
Q

How many spoilers are there?

A

12, 6 each wing= 2 x inboard. 4 x outboard.

35
Q

What system powers the ailerons how many to have aileron control?

A

All three power them.If one or two systems are lost you still have aileron control.

36
Q

What do the ailerons do with flap extension?

A

The inboards droop in conjunction with trailing edge flap extension.

37
Q

When if ever are spoilers inhibited from responding to control wheel commands?

A

At cruise speed, two spoilers on each wing are inhibited this prevents over controlling.

38
Q

Are ailerons ever locked out?

A

Yes at high speeds, prevents operation of outboard ailerons to protect against over controlling.

39
Q

How many spoilers are used withe the Speedbrake lever inflight?

A

All but 2 are used. (4&9) 3rd from the fuselage, the first outboard.Should not be used with flap greater then 5 to avoid buffeting.

40
Q

When will the speedbrakes extend if in the armed position?

A

Thrust levers idleHYD pressure to gear tilt actuatorsSensors detect airplane on the ground.

41
Q

When do the speedbrakes automatically retract?

A

When thrust levers are moved from idle on ground.

42
Q

When does the SPEEDBRAKES EXT and caution appear?

A

Speedbrakes are extended when RADALT is 800ft or BLW ORLaps are in landing position

43
Q

How are the flaps and slats powered in the Normal and Alternate operation?

A

NORMAL- Hydraulic poweredALTERNATE- Electric

44
Q

How many slats are there?

A

10 outboard- 5 a wing2 inboard- 1 a wingCenter HYD system powers through 3 separate power drive units

45
Q

What happens when flaps are moved to position 1?

A

Just the slats extend to takeoff position.

46
Q

What happens with flaps 5,15 & 20?

A

Slats- remain in takeoff position.Flaps- extend to required position & inboard ailerons droop in conjunction with flap extension.

47
Q

What happens at Flaps 25 & 30?

A

Slats- Extend to their landing position.Flaps- extend to selected position. Inboard ailerons droop.

48
Q

When does the flap load relief system arm and what does it do?

A

Arms at flaps 25 or 30.Retracts flaps position to 20Prevents flap extension to position 25, 30.Automatically reselects flap after speed is ok.Slats remain in LDG config.

49
Q

How does the ALTN FLAPS work and what has priority?

A

Driven by electric motor.Overrides flap lever control inputs.

50
Q

How long does the ALTN system take to extend to Flaps 20?

A

3 minutes.

51
Q

Do you still have Flap Load relief protection during ALTN flaps selector?

A

No flap load relief!

52
Q

Does the ALTN slat switch provide asymmetry protection?

A

No SLAT assymetry protection provided,

53
Q

What system powers the spoilers?

A

Long range cruise cuts costs lots- for Left wingLong range cruise cuts costs right- for right wing

54
Q

When is the alternate brake system pressurized and from where?

A

When right side pressure is low the center system automatically supplies pressure to the alternate system.

55
Q

What does the Center hydraulic system power in regards to the LDG gear?

A

Retraction, extension & steeringAlternate brake system.

56
Q

What system is the Autobrakes provided with?

A

Only normal system not Alternate.

57
Q

How many power sources does each hydraulic system have?

A

L/R- each have two sources. EDP and an AC motor pump which operates on demand.Center- 4 sources. 2x AC motor pumps. 1 ADP (Demand). 1x RAT

58
Q

Rudder ratio changer powered by?

A

Left system only and has only one actuator.

59
Q

Why do you depressurize the right HYD system last?

A

-C & R systems share a part of the brake lines.-If R system is turned off prior to C system the brake source is changed to the C system and fluid transfer from R to C system occurs, the prevent this depress the R first.
