A

Use the elevator or the aileron trim control system

95
Q

What is the yaw trim system?

A

A spring cartridge attached to the rudder control system that provides a centering force whenever the rudder is deflected. It is ground adjustable only

96
Q

Describe the power lever (throttle)?

A

It adjusts the engine throttle setting in addition to automatically adjusting propeller speed. Cables connect the lever to the throttle body?s fuel-metering valve and to the propeller governor. The system is set to maintain 2500 rpm throughout cruise power settings and 2700 rpm at full power

97
Q

What backup flight instruments are available if the PFD fails?

A

Altimeter, airspeed, attitude indicator, and magnetic compass

98
Q

The airplane does not have a flight-control gust lock, and you are not required to secure the control yoke with a seat belt when the airplane is tied down. Why not?

A

Because the rudder, aileron, and elevator trim spring cartridges have sufficient power to act as a gust damper

99
Q

Can you stand or kneel on the seats?

A

No. The seat bottoms have an integral aluminium honeycomb core designed to crush under impact to absorb downward loads during a CAPS landing

100
Q

Where is the throttle-friction control wheel located?

A

On the right side of the center console

101
Q

You are required to visually inspect the fire extinguisher before each flight. What must you ensure?

A

The nozzle is unobstructed, the pin has not been pulled, and the canister has not been damaged

102
Q

Describe the fuel drain valve locations and function?

A

Five total. Each wing has two drains, one for the fuel tank and one for the collector tank. The gascolator drain is located under the forward fuselage just aft of the lower engine cowl. The fuel must be sampled prior to each flight

103
Q

Can you slip the SR-22?

A

Yes, but if the fuel tank being used is less than 1/4 full, do not allow the airplane to remain in uncoordinated flight for periods in excess of 30 seconds. The fuel tank outlets may become uncovered

104
Q

Where are the flight time and Hobbs meters located?

A

Inside the armrest storage compartment

105
Q

Where is the parking brake located and how is it activated?

A

Below the instrument panel to the right of the pilots right ankle. Depress brakes and pull parking brake on.

106
Q

Describe the voltage, capacity, and location of each battery and alternator?

A

BAT 1 - 24V, 10 amp/hr battery located on the right firewall; BAT 2 - Two 12V, 12 amp/hr batteries connected in series to provide 24V located behind the aft cabin bulkhead below the parachute canister. ALT 1 - A gear-driven, 28.0V, 60-amp alternator mounted on the right front of the engine. ALT 2 - A gear-driven, 28.75V, 20-amp alternator mounted on the accessory case at the rear of the engine. (Note: The alternator voltage difference (28.0 and 28.75) is a critical factor for electrical system operation.)

107
Q

Describe the electrical system?

A

There are two batteries and two alternators. BAT 1 and ALT 1 supply the MAIN DISTRIBUTION BUS which powers the ESSENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BUS, the NON ESSENTIAL BUS, and the MAIN BUS 1. BAT 2 supplies the ESSENTIAL BUS. ALT 2 supply the ESSENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BUS 2 which powers the ESSENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BUS which powers the ESSENTIAL BUS and the AVIONICS ESSENTIAL BUS. Note: Find the two diodes?circles that contain a black arrowhead that?s perpendicular to a straight line?between the two main distribution buses and the essential distribution bus in Figure 7-10. Diodes act like switches if power failure occurs in the SR-22. Just remember that voltage is like water pressure, and the higher voltage (pressure) always dominates over lower voltage (pressure). If ALT 2 fails, the 28.75 volts disappears and the diodes will let ALT 1?s 28.0 volt current pass through and power whatever ALT 2 had been powering. However, if ALT 1 and BAT 1 fail, the diodes block current flow and will not let ALT 2 power what BAT 1 or ALT 1 were powering

108
Q

Why can?t BAT 1 or ALT 1 power what ALT 2 is powering during normal operation?

A

Because ALT 2?s 28.75 volts (higher pressure) prevents ALT 1?s 28.0 volts current from crossing the diodes. In summary, if only BAT 2 or ALT 2 are functional, they will only power the ESSENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BUS, but if only BAT 1 or ALT 1 are functional, they will power all busses. The SR-22 is an all electric airplane with excellent redundancy. This knowledge is mandatory

109
Q

Why should the batteries not be turned off in flight?

A

Because both alternators are self-exciting (will continue to run without battery power) but require battery voltage for field excitation in order to start should they shutdown

110
Q

What equipment is powered by the ESSENTIAL DISTRIBUTION BUS?

A

Engine instruments, stall warning, roll trim, pitch trim, BAT 2, NAV 1, COM 1, ADC AHRS, standby attitude indicator, and PFD, and GPS 1 (the upper Garmin 430)

111
Q

LOW VOLTS warning light illuminated procedure?

A

Cause: Voltage is 24.5 volts or less on the ESSENTIAL BUS and you are on battery power only because both alternators have failed or are off. Procedure: If both alternators have failed, land as soon as possible

Momentarily press HDG button on autopilot and note that HDG illuminates. Rotate HDG knob and note that control yoke follows movement to the left and right. Vertical speed test: Press VS button and note that VS light illuminates VS+0. Rotate the VS control knob to 500 fpm up and the control yoke should move aft after a short delay. Rotate the VS control knob to 500 fpm down and the control yoke should move forward after a short delay. Altitude hold test: Depress the ALT button. Note that ALT annunciator comes on, VS annunciator goes out, and yoke does not move. Overpower test: Grasp control yoke and input left and right aileron and nose up and nose down to overpower autopilot Overpower action should be smooth in each direction with no noise or jerky feel. Radio check: Turn on NAV 1 radio with a valid NAV signal and select VLOC for display on the HSI. Engage NAV mode and move OBS so that VOR deviation needle moves left or right. Note that control yoke follows direction of needle movement. Autopilot disconnect test: Press the Coolie Hat switch on the control yoke. Note that autopilot disconnects. Move control yoke to confirm that pitch and roll control is free with no control restriction or binding. If a pilot is in the copilot?s seat, repeat disconnect test using the copilot?s disconnect switch.

145
Q

From where does the autopilot receive its signals?

A

The turn coordinator, the HSI,and the #1 NAV/GPS radio

146
Q

AP GS (glideslope) mode?

A

Autopilot will capture and track an ILS glideslope. The airplane must be 60% or more below the glideslope centerline during the approach to the intercept point, and within 50% needle deviation of the localizer centerline at the point of intercept? usually the outer marker. When these conditions have existed for 10 seconds, the GS annunciator will illuminate indicating that GS arming has occurred. The ALT light will go out when the glideslope is captured.

147
Q

AP ALT (altitude hold) mode?
