The parking break can be set with either the normal or alternate breaking system pressurized

33
Q

When will the AUTOBREAK disengage after landing?

A

Manual breaking, thrust advanced, disarming the autobreak system

34
Q

The RTO mode is activated by:

A

Airplane on the ground

Groundspeed above 85 kts and

All thrust levers are closed (idle)

(FCOM 14.20.5)

35
Q

Reverse thurst after landing influences the break pressure provided by the autobreak system. True or false

36
Q

The Anti Skid system with normal or alternate breaking always protects each main wheel individually. True or False

37
Q

If the Anti Skid system is lost, what other system will you lose?

38
Q

The ANTI SKID msg indicates the loss of

A

Lost the Anti skid system for one wheel or more

39
Q

The parking break accumulator stores enough pressure to set the parking break but is not designed to stop the airplane. True or false.

40
Q

What causes the gear to extend when the alternate gear extension switches are used?

A

Gravity, freefall and spring locks

41
Q

When is the EICAS msg BREAK TEMP displayed?

A

5 or higher (FCOM 14.10.8)

42
Q

After Takeoff how is the autobreak selector positioned to OFF?

A

Automatically

43
Q

If the antiskid system is lost…

A

ANTISKID displays on the gear synoptic adjacent to the affected wheels, Longer landing distances, Braking and autobrakes effectiveness reduced and, Tire blowout, Locked tire. (FCOM 14.20.4)

44
Q

The ANTISKID message indicates the loss of

all thrust levers are closed, ground mode is sensed, and the wheels have spun up (FCOM 14.20.5)

55
Q

To what speed will the autobrake system provide automatic braking?

A

to a complete stop. (FCOM 14.20.5)

56
