Q

Trouble T mean on SID or Approach Plate

A

An obstacle penetrates the 40:1 OIS and therefore a departure procedure and/or different weather minimums are published. If there is a trouble T, a diverse departure is not authorized. Look in the front of the approach book for specific guidance or procedures.

A

No, they are controlled independently and powered through the PROP AUX PUMP MCBs

75
Q

Holding the Propeller switch to unfeather does what?

A

Used on the ground, activates the auxiliary feather pump and commands the propeller to unfeather and will drive to full reverse unless the switch is released.

76
Q

A

No. 2 Tank

77
Q

What is the APU starter duty cycle - 6.5 NATOPS

A

90 Seconds on, 5 mins off for 3 cycles, wait minimum 60 minutes before trying again

78
Q

Why are there 3 FLCVs in the outboard tank?

A

2 for wing flex and allow greater fuel load in flight and 3rd one is installed but not operational

79
Q

How does the plane pick the working transfer pump in the external tank?

A

Everytime the tank transfer pump is turned on the pump alternates

80
Q

Can both external tank pumps work at the same time?

A

Yes, only in fuel dumping

81
Q

Where does the fuel go when the SPR drain is activated? How long does it take?

A

82
Q

Does the fuel quantity indicator include the fuel in a failed indicating tank?

A

No

83
Q

What will be displayed for a failed fuel tank indicator and a degraded fuel tank indicator?

A
  • Dashed for failed
  • Random fuel quantity if degraded
84
Q

If the transfer pump in the fuselage tank is failed, can the fuel be transferred?

A

Yes, by aircraft pressurization

85
Q

What are the fuel balance limits?

A
  • 1000# between symmetrical tanks
  • 1500# between wings

86
Q

During alternate APU start does the fire detection system work and does the fire handle operate normally?

87
Q

Max MGT for a re-start attempt?

A

175 C

88
Q

Max time for NG indication?

A

10 seconds

No. 2 Boost pump

92
Q

During Cold weather operations, how long must you allow the APU to stabilize before applying a bleed air load?

A

4 minutes

93
Q

How can you tell if external power is on and connected?

The direct pressure gauge in the cargo compartment

102
Q

What is the purpose of the aileron diverter valve and how does it generally work?

A

Improved handling qualities at speeds below 270kts with the autopilot not engaged. It bypasses the pressure reducing valve to supply normal hydraulic pressure to the aileron boost package

103
Q

How is elevator trim controlled in normal and emergency?

A

Normal - Yoke
Emergency - Center Console

104
Q

When does the spring-loaded flap brake engage

A

When the flap gets to the selected position and hydraulic flow is shut off

105

What will happen when the flap lever is set at more 80% with refueling pods and gear not down and locked?

A

Landing gear warning audio will sound and cannot be silenced unless gear is down and locked or flaps set to less than 80%

106
Q

What happens to the chaff buckets on the external tanks when the flaps are extended past 15%

A

They are disabled

107
Q

For landing, what must the flaps be past in order to not get the flaps call?

A

40% but can be silenced via AMU GCAS flap inhibit line select

108
