Q

What happens if a leak develops in either pump line or component of system B

A

the quantity in the reservoir steadily decreases to approximately zero and system B pressure is lost, however the power transfer unit is still operational

22
Q

If System B has a leak is the standby hydraulic system affected?

A

No

23
Q

Which system can power all flight controls with no decreases in aircraft controllability?

A

Either A or B

24
Q

Max tire speed

A

195 knots

25
Q

brake wear indicator should extend beyond the brake flange with the parking break

A

set

26
Q

What hydraulic system powers the nose gear retraction?

A

system A

27
Q

the alternate brake system is powered by…

the normal brake system is powered by

A

system A

system B

28
Q

What brake system is anti skid provided

A

Both

29
Q

What stops the rotation of the landing gear during retraction

A

the brakes automatically

30
Q

What stops the rotation of the nose wheel on retraction?

A

snubbers

31
Q

What happens Moving the landing gear lever to the off position

A

Hydraulic pressure is removed from the system

32
Q

What does an extinguished green landing gear light indicate?

A

landing gear is not down and locked

33
Q

Red landing gear light indicates

A

gear not down and locked
disagreement or in transit
(below 800 feet and thrust lever idle)

34
Q

With the landing gear lever to down how does the system work?

A

Hydraulic pressure releases the uplocks

Combo of Hydraulic pressure, gravity and air loads

35
Q

What effect does opening the Manual Extension Access door have?

A

It disables landing gear retraction.

36
Q

What position must the landing gear lever be in in order to do manual extension of the gear

A

position does not affect the manual extension.

37
Q

How does the manual release work?

A

It unlocks the up hooks, gravity and air loads secure it down and locked

38
Q

Nose wheel steering is available when

A

down and locked with weight on wheels

39
Q

Nose wheel steering with the rudder pedals is

A

7° side to side

40
Q

What must be in place to push or tow the plane without depressurizing the hydraulic system

A

a lockout pin

41
Q

Switching the nose wheel steering to

A

uses System B

42
Q

If both systems fail can one sill use the brakes?

A

Yes, there should be residual pressure in the accumulators for several brake applications and parking brake

43
Q

Normal and Alt braking systems both provide

A

Locked wheel, skid, touch down, and hydroplane protection

44
