Answer 3

30 to 70 seconds

Question 4

In DG mode, how long does it take the AHRS system to initialize?

Answer 4

10 to 11 minutes

Question 5

What sends information to the captain’s flight instruments?

Answer 5

Air data computer 1 (ADC1)

Question 6

What sends information to the first officer’s instruments?

Answer 6

Air data computer 2 (ADC2)

Question 7

What sends pitot-static information to air data computer 1?

Answer 7

Pitot static port 1 (P1-S1) on the left side of the nose.

Question 8

What sends pitot-static information to air data computer 2?

Answer 8

Pitot static probe 2 (P2-S2) on right side of the nose.

Question 9

From which source does the integrated standby instrument receive pitot-static information?

Answer 9

Pitot probe 3 (P3) under the left side window and two static ports (S3) on either side of the lower, forward fuselage.

Question 10

Where is the total air temperature (TAT) probe located?

Answer 10

Under the right side window

Question 11

What is the definition of total air temperature (TAT)?

Answer 11

Air temperature corrected for compressibility and friction.

Question 12

On the ground with the probe heat switch selected ON, which air data probes are heated?

Answer 12

All 3 pitot probes are heated at 50% power while their bases remain unheated. The angle of attack vanes and system 3 static ports are heated at full heat. NOTE: the TAT probe and pitot bases will always remain unheated on the ground.

Question 13

Which air data probes are heated in flight with the probe heat switch selected OFF?

Answer 13

All air data probes and pitot bases are fully heated in flight, regardless of probe heat switch position.

Question 14

Is there a LOC and GS indication on the integrated standby instrument (ISI)?

Answer 14

Yes. NOTE: The ISI receives navigation data from NAV1 only.

Question 15

When will the radio altitude digital readout be displayed?

Answer 15

0 ft to 2,500 ft AGL

Question 16

When will the green radio altitude tape be displayed?

Answer 16

0 ft to 1,000 ft AGL

Question 17

When will the yellow hashed rising runway indication be displayed on the radio altitude tape?

Answer 17

0 ft to 200 ft AGL

Question 18

What does the speed trend vector indicate?

Answer 18

Predicted airspeed in 10 seconds

Question 19

When will the MACH readout appear above the airspeed tape?

Answer 19

Appears when accelerating through .45M. Disappears when decelerating through 0.4M

Question 20

What does the green line on the airspeed tape indicate?

Answer 20

1.27 Vs

Question 21

Where is the slip and skid indicator located?

Answer 21

A solid rectangle located just under the sky pointer (the brick).
