48
Q

If an outboard engine experiences large HP oscillations when the aircraft is below Vmpr, what does the opposite outboard engine do?

A

reacts with corresponding ATCS oscillations.

49
Q

What is the autofeather criteria?

A

No. 1 & 4 autofeather automatically
No. 2 & 3 either autofeather or remain windmilling at 100%
If below 15,500 ft and 3 other engines are running normally an inboard will autofeather after a 2 sec delay to give the engine time to recover.
At or above 15,500 ft or if another engine is shut down, the inboard windmills at 100%

50
Q

51
Q

Airstart envelope for JP-4

52
Q

Four Engine Flameout Procedure

A 
Aircraft attitude - Adjust to maintain 15-28% NG
Power levers (all) - FLT IDLE
CROSS FEED switches - CLSD
No. 2 &amp; 3 Engine Start switches - Stop, Start, Release
No. 1 &amp; 4 Engine Start switches - Stop, Start, Release
53
Q

Why do we select inboard engines first during a four engine flameout?

A

because at least one of them will have 100% NP

54
Q

Why do we select STOP on the engine start switches first during a four engine flameout?

A

to prevent the loss of all hydraulic and generator power and to clear the FAIL condition before an outboard switch is placed to START.

Placing the engine switch to RUN before the FAIL message is cleared will cause the windmilling prop to autofeather because the MC autofeather logic will determine that an engine is running as soon as START is selected.

55
Q

How can you tell a prop is feathered?

A

Forward rotation up to 1/2 revolution/sec

56
Q

How long does the aux feather pump run for?

A

20 seconds

57
Q

Feathering is limited to how many commands?

58
Q

When is a feather command counted?

A

each time the FIRE handle is pulled or the PROPELLER CONTROL switch is placed to FEATHER.

59
Q

A

complete airstart within 6 cumulative hours and run for 20 mins to reset the 6 hour limit

60
Q

Propeller Windmilling Limitations

Prop fx’d, fire handle in, NG <7%

A

within 3 minutes or accelerate to increase NG above 7% (165 KIAS) or pull the FIRE HANDLE

61
Q

Propeller Windmilling Limitations

Prop fx’d, fire handle in, NG > or equal to 7%

A

within 20 minutes or pull the FIRE HANDLE

62
Q

Propeller Windmilling Limitations

Prop windmilling at 100%

A

within 5 minutes or pull the FIRE HANDLE

63
Q

Why do we not extend flaps greater than 50% until landing is assured with a failed engine?

A

provides an easier configuration for a go-around

64
Q

If you trip all the generators offline, what else do you lose? What could happen?

A

Anti-skid protection is lost resulting in increased stopping distance, possible loss of directional control, and damage to the gear doors if hard braking is applied causing the main tires to fail

A

from the shutdown engine side

66
Q

A

Inboard power lever can be advanced to Takeoff but the outboard power lever should be advanced slowly, and only as far as rudder control allows.

72
Q

Approach and Landing with Two Engines Inoperative

Crosswinds from which side are preferred?

A

failed engine side, but make lineup for touchdown more difficult

73
Q

A

500 feet above the runway

74
Q

Approach and Landing with Two Engines Inoperative

75
Q

Approach and Landing with Two Engines Inoperative

What kind of approach do you want to fly?

A

a shallow AOB approach turn to a long straight-in ILS

76
Q

If normal and anti-skid braking is not available, any braking before when may cause tires to fail?

A

before aircraft slows 30 KIAS below touchdown speed

77
Q

If No. 1 and 2 are out, what do you lose?

A

Wing flaps and MLG have to be operated manually
Aux system to lower NLG
Aux system for emergency brake operation
Flight controls boost to be supplied by booster system
NWS and anti skid not operative

78
Q

If you have a fuselage tank installed and an external fuel leak, what should you do and why?

A

Depressurize the aircraft. It will prevent aircraft pressurization from forcing fuel from the fuselage tank thru a ruptured AR manifold.

79
Q

What should you NOT do when landing with a fuel leak? and why?

A

Reverse thrust. Possibility of a wing fire is increased

80
Q

A

Dump the fuselage tank fuel first using the AR pumps and transfer fuel from other tanks into fuselage tank to be dumped

81
Q

Minimum altitude to dump fuel

A

6000’ AGL

82
Q

Which pumps are disabled when any ICE PROTECTION PROPELLERS switch is in any position other than off?

A

Fuselage AR pumps

83
Q

85
Q

What are some factors to consider in making the decision to land with a hose extended or to guillotine it?

A
  1. Length of hose remaining out of pod
  2. Runway surface and likelihood of snagging the hose
  3. location and rigging of runway arresting gear
  4. usable runway length and the need to reverse

CNI-MU POD CTRL pg 1/2 MSTR PWR LSK - Off

87
Q

Total AC Power Failure

Do not attempt to start the APU if battery voltage is below what? And why?

A

23 volts

a voltage transient may cause an unrecoverable loss of essential equipment

88
Q

Total AC Power Failure

If one or more crossfeed valves were open at the time of failure, do they remain open or close?

A

89
Q

How many minutes do the batteries provide emergency dc power?

90
Q

What are the two categories of ECBU failures?

A

conventional and data bus communication failures

91
Q

What is a conventional ECBU failure?

A

results from a power loss or internal fault

all subordinate components lose power

92
Q

What is a data bus communication ECBU failure?

occurs when the ECBU interface with the 1553 data bus fails

subordinate components generally fail in their last commanded state

93
Q

94
Q

The engine-driven hydraulic pump is geared directly to what?

95
Q

Hydraulic System Pressure LO/LOSS/LEAK Procedure

A

ENGINE PUMPS switches (affected system) - OFF

SUCTION BOOST PUMPS switch (affected system) - OFF

96
Q

Is the hydraulic system operational following a suction boost pump failure?

A

Yes if no hydraulic leak exists and the affected hydraulic system pressure is at least 2500 psi

97
Q

If at any time hydraulic fluid is seen leaking from an engine, turn what off? and why?

A

engine-driven pump because of risk of fire. A line or pump rupture can dump hydraulic fluid into the engine

98
Q

Why do we not want to shut off hydraulic engine pumps if pressure exceeds 3500 psi?

A

if you do.. the pressure line btwn the hyd pump and the shutoff valve is isolated from its means of pressure control. Excessive pressure will build up until the hyd pump or line ruptures, dumping this fluid into the engine nacelle

99
Q

If hydraulic pressure is greater than 3750 psi, what has likely failed?

A

loss of system pressure relief valve and a failed hydraulic pump compensator

100
Q

A

the free movement of the rudder pedals with no corresponding yawing moment, and/or visible damage to the rudder linkage in the aft cargo compartment

102
Q

What’s an indication of a hydraulic failure of the rudder (vice a mechanical one)?

A

rudder can be moved manually with greatly increased effort

103
Q

If you place the ELEV TAB power selector switch to EMER or OFF, what will disengage?

104
Q

If the ELEV TAB is in EMER, can you operate the trim on the control wheel?

A

No. Must use the trim switch on the center console only

105
Q

Protection against asymmetrical extension or retraction of the flaps is provided only when what’s available?

A

when DC power and utility hydraulic pressure are simultaneously available

106
Q

How can you operate the flaps if the flap electrical control system fails? where is this thing located?

A

manually operated wing flap selector valve, located on the utility hydraulic panel

107
Q

What is the purpose of a controllability check?

A

To determine the minimum safe airspeed to maintain during approach and landing.

108
Q

If you get a wing/empennage ice protection zone overheat ACAWS, when should you turn off the that ice protection system?
