Q

What stops the pressure relief door from flying away during flight?

A

A lanyard

18
Q

What must be done if a pressure relief door is found opened?

A

Check all the components behind the cowling for air leak

19
Q

What are engines called when mounted on the left or right of the aft fuselage?

A

Side-mounted engines

20
Q

What is an engine called when it is in the tail section?

A

Stabiliser-mounted engine

21
Q

How many engine mounts are there?

A

2

22
Q

What are the engine mounts called?

A

Forward mount and aft mount

23
Q

Where is the forward mount connected?

A

The fan frame

24
Q

Where is the aft mount connected?

A

The turbine frame

25
Q

What mount takes the thrust loads and why?

A

The forward mount takes the loads because of axial thermal expansions of the engine can be more than 20mm

26
Q

How is a turbo-prop engine secured to the upper nacelle structure?

A

By a resilient rubber mount which reduces vibration and torque effects

27
Q

What should happen if cracking or pitting is found on the engine mount?

A

It should be rejected

28
Q

What if heat or fluid deterioration is found on the turbo-prop resilient rubber?

A

It should be replaced

29
Q

How far should pipes be positioned from fixed structures?

A

6mm

30
Q

How far should pipes be positioned from control and rigid moving parts?

A

18mm

31
Q

How far should pipes be positioned from control cables?

A

25mm

32
Q

Why are pipes required to be a certain distance away from certain lines?

A

To prevent chafing from movement or vibration

33
Q

What are feeders?

A

Cables/wires that take power to or from components

34
Q

What is a connector?

A

A device that is semi-permanent between electrical cables

35
Q

How far apart should bundling of a wire take place in an engine?

A

Every 2inches

36
Q

When a wire enters a connector, what is the distance from the last tie?

A

6 inches

37
Q

What are the three methods for an engine change?

A
  • bootstrap method
  • overhead crane supporting sling
  • uplift loader
38
Q

What percentage of time is crane support sling method quicker than bootstrap method?

A

30%

39
Q

What percentage of time is the uplift method quicker than the bootstrap method?

A

40%

40
Q

Why is the uplift loader mouthed not commonly used?

A

Needs expensive equipment

41
Q

Is a leakage acceptable?

A

Yes but check the AMM if its okay

42
Q

How fast should the airspeed be to force all the leaked fluid out the drain collector?

A

200knots
