Q

What does the PTU during the second engine start sequence?

A

A self test

16
Q

What is the purpose of the priority valve?

A

To cut off heavy users (flaps, slats, gears, emergency generator) if system pressure gets too low to operate flight controls

17
Q

What hydraulic system is used for normal braking?

A

Green

18

What hydraulic system is used for alternate braking?

A

Yellow

19
Q

When does the RAT deploy automatically?

A

Loss of AC BUS 1 and 2

20
Q

Where/ when can the RAT be stowed?

A

On the ground

21
Q

What is the function of the hydraulic leak measurement valves and how are they operated?

A

Measure the leakage in each circuit and are closed by operation of the push buttons on the maintenance panel.
