Tecnam P2006t Systems

Question 1

Describe the wing

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 1

Two central aluminum spars; flaps are ailerons are connected to rear spar; the “torque box” between the spars contains the integrated fuel tank and supports the nacelle; all structures are wrapped in stressed aluminum skin.

Question 2

Describe the fuselage

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 2

Light alloy, semi-monocoque, semi-stresses skin panels.

Question 3

Describe the empennage

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 3

Horizontal and vertical are all-metallic; the horizontal empennage is a stabilator with (anti) trim tab.

Question 4

Describe the primary flight controls

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 4

Manually operated by a conventional control column and rudder pedals, pulleys, cables, bell cranks, and rods. Longitudinal control (stabilator) is push-pull rods. Ailerons are both cables and push-pull rods in the wings.

Question 5

Describe the flaps

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 5

Electrically actuated via switch on the instrument panel. 0*, T/O and LDG. An aural warning sounds if the flaps are full and the gear is not down and locked.

Question 6

Is there rudder trim?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 6

Yes. Rudder trim tab. Operated electrically via a control switch on the central console located between the seats.

Question 7

Is there aileron trim?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 7

Yes. Ground adjustable tab on the left aileron.

Question 8

Is there longitudinal trim?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 8

Yes. Small tab positioned on the stabilator. Manually operated by control wheel positioned between the two crew seats.

Question 9

Describe the cooling system

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 9

Ram-air cooled cylinders; liquid cooled heads. A camshaft-driven water pump moves coolant from the radiator, to the cylinder heads, to an expansion tank above the engine; the expansion tank is closed by a pressure relief and return valve. At atmospheric pressures, coolant flows both ways to a transparent overflow bottle.

Question 10

Describe the oil system

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 10

Dry-sump. Thermostatic valve regulates flow to the radiator on the basis of temperature (cold weather starting). Oil tank is behind the firewall

Question 11

Describe the generators

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 11

14.2-14.8 Vdc, integrated voltage regulator, automatic over-voltage protection

Question 12

Describe the battery

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 12

12-volt, 38 -Ah; an external Dc source can be connected to the Dc distribution system

Question 13

How many microswitches are involved in the landing gear

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 13

6, 2 for each leg (UP/DN)

Question 14

What do the three green landing gear lights mean?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 14

That the pertinent leg is down and locked

Question 15

What does a red landing gear light mean?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 15

That the gear is in transition

Question 16

What does an amber landing gear light mean?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 16

That the pump/power pack is electrically supplied

Question 17

How do you lower the landing gear in the event of power pack failure?
(Tecnam P2006t)

Answer 17

A nitrogen accumulator located in the tail supplies pressure for gear down, activated via a control panel on the cockpit floor

Question 18

When does the landing gear warning horn sound?

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 18

When the gear are in the UP position, and either one or both throttles is set to idle or the flaps are set to LDG

Question 19

Describe the brake system

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 19

A master cylinder is installed beneath each pilot/copilot’s rudder pedal. Vented reservoir –> Pilot-side –> copilot-side –> parking valve –> brake

Question 20

Fuel system pathway

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 20

Tank - selector(s) - gascolator - electric fuel pump - firewall - mechanical fuel pump - distribution to carburetors, fuel pressure unit, and return line

Question 21

What elements of the fuel system are “on” the tanks

Tecnam P2006t

Answer 21

fuel vent, sump, and quantity sensor
