What are the conditions required for activation of the hydraulic standby system on the ground?
Flaps extended, wheel speed greater than 60kts
What is the maximum permitted speed with the landing gear extended?

After landing, what conditions need to exist for the autobrake to operate?
Autobrake selector to required mode, right main gear spin up, thrust levers near idle.
Between which speeds on the take off roll will the autobrake not engage for an RTO?
60-90kts
In flight; if the gear is not down and the thrust levers are retarded to idle, what happens to the gear lights?
Red lights illuminate.
Which condition will cause the gear warning horn to sound (cannot be silenced)?

One electrical system, one pack
Up to 17,000 feet, how many electrical systems and how many packs can the APU power?
One electrical system OR one pack
Over 17,000 feet, how many electrical systems and how many packs can the APU power?
One electrical system, NO pack
What is the maximum APU operating altitude?
FL350
Successful APU starts are assure upto what altitude?
25,000 ft
APU fuel is normally supplied by which fuel tank, but can also be supplied by which tanks?
Tank 1, but can be supplied with left pump from centre tank or tank 2 with crossfeed.
What’s the max APU EGT at startup?
760C
What’s the max continuous APU EGT?
710C
To start the APU, what is the minimum voltage required from the battery?
23V
Most pneumatic bleed valves on the a/c are _________ activated and _________ operated.
Electrically activated and pneumatically operated.
During the use of engine anti ice on the ground, in which position should the APU bleed valve be and why?
Closed, because APU bleed air could back pressure the engine 9th stage bleed, causing it to close and losing sufficient bleed pressure for engine anti ice.
Under which conditions does the DUAL BLEED light illuminate?
APU bleed valve open, engine bleed SWITCHES in open position, potential for engines to backpressure the APU
