Spring loaded and single slotted
What does it mean by the ailerons are differential?
They will go higher up than down
The landing gear is….
Hydraulically operated electrically powered
How does the emergency gear extension work?
Gravity powered but wont lock
When will the gear horn go off?
When power is back below 14” without gear down
How is the manifold pressure indicated?
