Q

Describe how the primary pitot static system operates.

A

The primary pitot tube on the right wingtip and the primary static ports on both sides of the aft fuselage route their dynamic and static pressure information to the Air Data Computer located in the left avionics bay. The ADC uses this data to generate airspeed, altitude, and climb rate information for use by the primary instruments.

Q

How many degrees does each line on the EADI represent?

A

The scale is graduated in 2.5 degree increments until 30 degrees NH/NL, then the scale is graduated in 5 degree increments

17
Q

In a standard rate turn, how far is the pointer displaced?

A

It is displayed the width of one full pointer, or center on the outer box

18
Q

If the pitch angle exceed ____ or ____, or the roll angle exceeds _____, only the attitude presentation will remain and all other information presented on the EADI will be removed.

When the aircraft returns to a pitch angle of less than ____ up or _____ down and _____ of bank, the normal EADI presentation will appear.

A

30 degrees or -20 degrees
or the roll angle exceeds 65 degrees.

25 degrees up, or 15 degrees down
and 60 degrees of bank

19
Q

At what attitudes do the recovery chevrons appear and what do they indicate?

A

Between 40 and 90 degrees nose high/low

Indicates the nearest direction for a level attitude recovery

20
Q

If the EHSI is displaying a GPS source, what 4 display objects will pressing the MAP button cycle through?

A
  1. Waypoints
  2. Waypoints with ground stations
  3. Waypoints with airports
  4. Waypoints with ground stations and airports
21
Q

What are the full circle ranges on the EHSI while in NAV MAP mode?

40
80
160
240
320
1000

The inner circle is the full circle ranges divided by 2
