on ground
anti-skid and autobrakes work
AUTO BRAKE switch in RTO
wheel speed less than 60 kts
thrust less than idle.
32
Q

A

AUTO BRAKE DISARM

33
Q

How is the RTO mode activated?

speed brake lever moved to the down detent
one or both thrust levers advanced
manual brakes applied.

37
Q

T/F: the parking brake can be set with ________pressure

A

accumulator

38
Q

If a spinning tire with loose tread impacts a fitting in the wheel well ring opening

A

retraction is stopped and the gear free falls back down.

39
Q

Main gear is held in the up position by ________.

A

mechanical uplocks

40
Q

if the left engine fails on takeoff, what happens with respect to the landing gear?

A

the landing gear transfer unit will use hyd sys B to supply the fluid volume req’d to ensure retraction of the gear at a normal rate.

41
Q

A

Hydraulic pressure, gravity and air loads.

42
Q

What holds the landing gear down and locked?

landing gear lever lock solenoid.

45
Q

If the gear won’t come up, you should?

A

leave the gear down and retract the flaps on schedule. d

46
Q

If the cabin altitude/configuration warning horn sounds immediately after takeoff, what does this indicate?

A

a failure of the air/ground system or

failure of the ground spoiler bypass to close

47
Q
