Q

Name one reason that the REVERSER light on the aft overheard panel would be illuminated.

A
  • Isolation valve or thrust reverser control valve is not in the commanded position
  • Thrust reverser sleeve position sensors are in disagreement
  • Auto-reset circuit has been activated

The REVERSER light illuminates when the thrust reverser is commanded to stow and extinguishes 10 seconds later when the isolation valve closes. Any time the REVERSER light illuminates for more than approximately 12 seconds, a malfunction has occurred, and the MASTER CAUTION and ENG system annunciator lights illuminate.

Q

What is the Elevator Feel System?

A

The elevator feel system uses the elevator feel computer to provide simulated aerodynamic forces using airspeed (from the elevator pitot system) and stabilizer position. Feel is transmitted to the control columns by the elevator feel and centering unit. To operate the feel system the elevator feel computer uses either hydraulic system A or B pressure, whichever is higher. When either hydraulic system or elevator feel pitot system fail, excessive differential pressure is sensed in the elevator feel computer, and the FEEL DIFF PRESS light illuminates

39
Q

When is the Feel Differential Pressure light armed?

A
  1. The first one is related to a differential of A & B hydraulic pressure to the elevator feel system. When either hydraulic system pressure drops > 25% related to the higher pressure, the FEEL DIFF PRESS light illuminates on the flight control panel with a 30 second delay. The 30 second delay prevents the light from “flickering” when pressure drops in either system by a high demand such as gear selection.
  2. The second is related to the dynamic air pressure supply to the Elevator Feel Computer. It receives dynamic pressure from the two pitot tubes mounted on either side of the vertical stabilizer. When the computer receives an eratic signal it’d be the same as the pressure drop and the light illuminates. (failed probe heater and icing conditions)
  3. The third is related to the Stall Management and Yaw Damper (SMYD), and a so called Elevator Feel Shift module (EFS), which creates a ±4 times higher forward control column force when approaching the stall region. This force uses a reduced system A pressure and when this reducer fails, opening prematurely providing a higher than normal A system pressure to the feel actuator, the FEEL DIFF PRESS also illuminates after 30 seconds.

Note on the last system, it’s inhibited <100 ft. RA and AP selected, and when the EFS is not operational.

Q

What is the Speed Trim System?

A

The speed trim system is designed to improve flight characteristics during operations with a low gross weight, aft CG, high thrust. It monitors inputs of stabilizer position, thrust lever position, airspeed, and vertical speed and then trims the stabilizer using the autopilot stabilizer system. Operates most frequently during takeoff and go-arounds.

142
Q

What is the Landing Gear Transfer Unit?

A

It supplies pressurized hydraulic fluid needed to raise the landing gear at the normal rate when system A is lost due to number 1 engine RPM loss. The B system engine driven pump supplies the pressurized hydraulic fluid needed to operate the landing gear transfer unit.

A

Yes. But antiskid is limited to wheel pairs instead of individual wheels.

152
Q

** On the -800 we have them in both normal and alternate **

153
Q

A

Yes

154
Q

When the AUTO BRAKES selector is positioned to RTO or one of the landing settings, if the AUTOBRAKE DISARM light illuminates briefly, is that normal?

Retracts from 40 to 30 if A/S exceeds 162 knots
Re-Extension when A/S is below 157 knots

164
Q

A

With flaps selected to 1, 2, and 5, autoslats will automatically drive the slats to the fully extended position if the aircraft approaches a stall

165
Q

What is the function of the power transfer unit?

A

The power transfer unit supplies the additional volume of hydraulic fluid needed to operate the auto-slats and leading edge flaps and slats at the normal rate when the system B engine-driven hydraulic pump volume is lost. The PTU uses system A pressure to power a hydraulic motor- driven pump, which pressurizes system B hydraulic fluid.

166
Q

When will the PTU operate?

A
  • airborne
  • system B engine-driven pump hydraulic pressure drops below limits
  • flaps are less than 15, but not up
167
Q

Is there an alternate means of extending the flaps and slats? If so, how does it function?

A

Yes. The trailing edge flaps can be positioned electronically using the ALTERNATE FLAPS switch. The leading edge flaps and slats can be extended using power from the standby hydraulic pump, but cannot be retracted once they are extended

168
Q

When will the auto speed brake system operate on landing?

A
