3. A/C CONFIG. ———————– GEAR UP, FLAPS 0
4. SPEED ——————————– 114kts (or ride donut)
5. OXYGEN MASKS —————— ON if cab. alt. >10,000’

A

AHRS 2 —————— on AV1 BUS and AV2 BUS
EFIS 2 ——————– on AV1 BUS

RMI 2 ——————– on AV2 BUS
EFIS EADI ————— on AV2 BUS
LH PITOT DE ICE —– on GEN 1 BUS

21
Q

What are switches we can turn off in the cockpit (excluding CCBs) to reduce electrical loads?

A
  1. External lights
  2. Internal lights
  3. De-icing systems, ALL besides probe heat
  4. Nav/Comm2
  5. ADF
  6. Transponder
  7. WX Radar
22
Q

Maximum range descent (dual battery):

A
  1. PCL ——————————- IDLE
  2. CONDITION LEVER ———- IDLE/CUTOFF

  7. PAX OXYGEN —————— ON if cab. alt. >10,000’
  8. PAX ——————————- BRIEFED
  9. ELECTRICAL LOAD ———- SHED LOAD
    as follows: external lights, de-ice systems, internal lights, LH PITOT DEICE on GEN 1 BUS out

CAUTION:
Monitor BAT 1 & BAT 2 AMPS. If one is positive, switch off that battery (its feeding the other one, possible overcharge). After 5 minutes the battery can be switched on again. if it happens again shut that battery off.

NOTE: When retracting flaps and/or gear, AHRS and EFIS could go offline and severe battery draw will occur. However, when in clean, it significantly increases gliding distance.

23

27
Wheel brake failure:
Use max reverse and nose wheel steering to maintain directional control
28
What are possible conditions on ground where AIR/GND disagree CAWS would illuminate?
On ground: -Stick shaker could be going off - Pressurization could be trying to set at cruise altitude - Landing gear handle in the up position - Transponder can transmit on ground
29
What systems could be affected when AIR/GND CAWS is illuminated in flight?
**Initially, could be fixed by cycling the gear down and up again, ONLY ONCE.** If no effect: - Stick pusher becomes inoperative - Landing gear handle solenoid goes to locked; gear can be lowered but not retracted - Transponder set to ON or ALT - Hydraulic pump not active if engine not on - ECS; if aircraft goes to GI, cabin could depressurize - Prop deice not operative with engine off Along with this, CAB PRESS, PROP LOW P, STAB TRIM, CHIP, HYDR could be giving false indications
30
What is an indication of flap asymmetry in flight?
FLAP CAWS illumination, followed by PUSHER CAWS meaning flap system has failed and stick pusher in "safe" mode
31
Inadvertent pusher/shaker operation:
1. CONTROL WHEEL -------------- HOLD AGAINST PRESSURE 2. PUSHER INTR -------------------- PRESS AND HOLD 3. PUSHER SYS CCB --------------- PULL on BAT BUS 4. AIRSPEED ------------------------- NOT BELOW 1.3 Vs (your ref speeds per flap setting essentially) **NOTE: AOA may not be reliable**
32
Inadvertent shaker:
1. AOA ---------------- Decrease 2. Airspeed --------- Increase If shaker continues: 3. STALL WARN UNIT 1 CCB ---------- PULL (BAT BUS) 4. STALL WARN UNIT 2 CCB ---------- PULL (GEN1 BUS) **WARNING: Aircraft is not stall protected**
33
Trim runaway:
1. Trim interrupt ---------- INTR if CAWS A/P TRIM blue advisory and/or A/P triple light indicator is on: 2a) A/P CCB ----------------- OUT (AV2 BUS) 2b) Trim interrupt -------- NORM **reduce airspeed if control forces are high** if CAWS A/P TRIM and A/P triple indicator is NOT on: 2a) CB of failed trim ----- OUT 2b) Trim interrupt -------- NORM **reduce airspeed if control forces are high** if main stabilizer trim has failed: Pitch trim -------------------- ALTERNATE STAB **Rule out autopilot then main trim then use alternate trim.**
34
What does an ESTL BUS CAWS light indicate?
Voltage below 18V on BAT, GEN1 or GEN2.
35
In any case when you have a BUS failure, what should you avoid?
Avoid icing conditions. for GEN 1 and BAT BUS failure, consider EFIS to CMPST.
