LANDING GEAR and BRAKES Flashcards
The Maximum Possible Steering Angle is?
Plus or Minus 43 degrees.
Rudder Pedals (20 degrees)
Asymmetric power/Differential Braking (23 degrees)
The Landing Gear Aural Warning comes on when the Landing gear is not down and locked at Flaps 0, 1, or 2 when:
Difference between pressure altitude and LFE is leas than 700 ft, AND
Airspeed below 160 KTS, AND
Either Thrust Lever is set below 26 degrees with the opposite lever below 40 degrees (2 engines operating)
Thrust Lever of operative engine is below 40 degrees (one engine inoperative OEI)
The Landing Gear Aural Warning comes on when the Landing gear is not down and locked at Flaps 3, or FULL when:
Regardless of Thrust Lever position, airspeed, altitude, and CANNOT be silenced by pushing the WRN INHIB button.
The Landing Gear Aural Warning comes on when the Landing gear is not down and locked and Flaps not Available or a Flaps Failed situation exists, when:
Difference between Pressure Altitude and LFE is less than 700 ft while descending.
The Brake Control Unit (BCU) is powered by what BUS?
EMERGENCY BUS
Anti skid Protection is available above ______ KTS.
30 KTS
System is deactivated below 10 KTS
The Landing Gear Aural Warning comes on when the Landing year is not down and locked at Flaps 3 or FULL when:
Regardless of thrust lever position, air speed and altitude, the landing gear oral warning cannot be silenced by pushing the WRN INIB button.
What happens when you pull the emergency gear extension handle?
Opens the free fall selector valve that releases all residual hydraulic pressure from the landing gear lines to the return line, and mechanically releases the landing gear up locks
What protections do the Main Brakes have?
Locked Wheel
Antiskid
Touchdown
The wheels have fusable plugs that deflate the tires if the wheels become too hot. Brakes are also applied during gear retraction.
How can you tell the parking brake is set (other than the parking brake lever)?
PARK BRAKE light on glare shield.
The light is associated with a pressure switch.
The emergency/parking brake is mechanically actuated and provides pressure to all brakes allowing the pilot to modulate brake pressure in emergency situations. The accumulator has sufficient pressure to provide how many brake applications?
6
RTO minimum brake cooling time
20 Mins
During an EMER BUS OFF situation, will you have a PARKING BRAKE LIGHT?
NO
Since you will be using EMER BRAKES to stop the plane, you will not be able to monitor for the light as you begin to apply them.
