41
What are the differences in the flaps in the 3 aircraft?
All the same, "WORM GEAR DRIVEN"
414 has different numbers 15/30/45
414 has Split Flaps
42
What the differences in PRESSURIZATION in the 2 aircraft?
310 is NON-PRESSURIZED
| 414 is PRESSURIZED
43
How does a pilot operate the PRESSURIZATION SYSTEM on TakeOff and Landing?

Engine Oil
46
What is the cool down time for the TurboChargers?
3 minutes
47
What specific condition can occur inside the turbochargers if NOT ALLOWED to cool before shut down?
The oil in the turbo charger can boil, or COKING
48
What is the MAX allowable oil in each engine?

57
What equipment is required to be CERTIFIED "KNOWN ICE"?
Wing Boots (inboard and Outboard / Vertical and Horizontal Stabs), Heated Windshield, Stall and Pitot Heat, Prop Heat, Ice Wing Light
58
When you lose an engine on a TWIN ENGINE AIRCRAFT, how much performance is lost?
80%
59
How do the wing boots inflate and deflate?
Inflate from the exhaust side of the vacuum. It's on a 6 cycle rotation...TAIL first then WINGS.
60
If you start one engine and BOTH RED VACUUM BUTTONS DISAPPEAR is the aircraft safe to fly?
NO.
IF both buttons suck in the one engine running that valve has failed which means if you lose an engine in flight you could lose vacuum pressure which means you could lose the ATTITUDE INDICATOR and the ability for your boots to functions.
61
The ALTITUDE at which the WASTEGATE is fully CLOSED?
Critical Altitude
62
What does the WASTEGATE do on the 414?
ON THE GROUND the compressor provides more air than the engine needs so it opens and dumps the air. As you climb and require more power the gate closes to allow more air into the engine.
63
On the 414 after the air is pressurized and cooled through the heat exchanger how does it enter the cockpit?
Through the environmental system (air conditioner, heat, or normal vents).
64
On the 414 there is an air inlet at the root of the inboard wing what does it do?
It allows air through a heat exchanger that cools the pressurized air for the cockpit
65
How does the cabin on the 414 obtain pressurization?
From the compressor on the turbo charger
66
When you land what safety features are in place to make sure the cabin is not pressurized?
The squat switch senses the weight on wheels and opens the dump valve.
67
What three ways can you test at the gear is down using the gear horn?
1) left throttle below 12" and gear not down
2) right throttle below 12" and gear not down
3) flaps beyond approach and gear not down
68
What are 6 things the squat switch ties to?
Activates/deactivates the landing gear switch
Opens/closes dump valve
Starts/stops Hobbs meter
Activates/deactivates gear lights (3 green no red)
Starts/stops landing gear motor
The gear horn
69
Explain how the props are ADJUSTED on a Constant Speed/Variable PITCH Prop?
Engine oil pushes the piston in the hub based on where the lever is in the cockpit. There are springs and nitrogen in the hub that stop the piston from going too far.
70
Explain how the props STAY at a CONSTANT SPEED on a Constant Speed/Variable PITCH Prop?
Their counter balances on each blade. As the rotation increases or decreases different from what is set in the cockpit the counterbalance Will adjust the pitch of the prop to keep the speed constant.
