Answer 2

ENG 1,2,3,4 AUTOSTART

Question 3

(Atlas) reasons to use continuous ignition

Answer 3

Severe Turbulence
Volcanic Ash
Heavy Rain

Question 4

when do INOP lights for yaw damper extinguish

Answer 4

first IRU aligned

Question 5

Full alignment of IRS must be accomplished…

Answer 5

when time from last full alignment to next expected arrival time exceeds 18hours

Question 6

utility bus has

Answer 6

galley equipment
Main Pump 2/3 FWD
OVD Pump 2/3 FWD
CWT Pump L

Question 7

(aside from fault) how do you disarm autobrakes

Answer 7

• pedals
• speed brake lever moved down (after deployment)
• switch to disarm or off
• any thrust lever advanced

Question 8

How many detectors, what loop configuration, how many extinguishers?
Engines
APU
FWD/AFT cargo
Main cargo deck
Wheel well

Answer 8

Engine - dual loop fire, dual loop overheat, both must detect fire/ovht unless configured for single loop. 2 extinguishers per wing

APU - dual loop fire, NIL overheat detection, either loop detecting fire gives warning, shuts down automatically, fires extinguisher on ground. 1 extinguisher

FWD/AFT cargo - 4 dual loop smoke detectors in each (8 total), both must detect unless in single loop. 4 extinguishers total (cannot use for both FWD and AFT at same time)
MAIN cargo - 16 dual loop smoke detectors, both must detect unless in single loop. Nil extinguishers
(Both - SAMPLE AIR throughout each compartment drawn through detectors by center bleed duct air)

Wheel well - single loop fire detector. nil extinguishers

Question 9

Quick method to know fuel to remain amount during jettison

Answer 9

MLW - ZFW

Question 10

what speed do outboard ailerons lockout

Answer 10

238 kts

Question 11

which faults cause no NAI

Answer 11

PRV failed closed
PRV closed due bleed overheat
PRV closed due starter valve failed to close
HP valve failed open

Question 12

Engine Bleed ‘SYS FAULT Lights due to:

Answer 12

HP bleed valve open when commanded closed
Bleed air overheat
Bleed air overpressure
PRV open when commanded closed

Question 13

when speedbrake lever ARMED, what conditions drive speedbrake lever to UP

Answer 13

• main landing gear touch down
• thrust levers 1 AND 3 near idle

Question 14

when speedbrake lever DN, what conditions drive speedbrake lever to UP

Answer 14

• main landing gear touch down
• thrust levers 1 AND 3 near idle
• reverse thrust levers 2 OR 4 idle

Question 15

when speedbrake lever UP, what conditions drive speedbrake lever to DN (GA protection)

Answer 15

• thrust lever 1 OR 3 advanced from idle

Question 16

How many ZTCs are there?

Answer 16

One

Question 17

PTC autoswitches if:

Answer 17

PTC fails
channel fails

Question 18

What causes Zone SYS FAULT Light

Answer 18

• FOCC
• Fault/overheat - zone temp controller fault/ temperature zone duct overheat
• OFF - trim air switch
• Closed - master trim air valve closed but pack air continues to flow
• Closed - master trim air valve failed closed

Question 19

How does flight deck fan work

Answer 19

• only on ground
• packs off, recirculates cabin air
• packs on, increases flow of conditioned air

Question 20

what about the gears is required to unlock gear switch

Answer 20

• main gear tilted
• body gear centred

Question 21

Question 26

what position should outflow valves be in on ground

Answer 26

both open

Question 27

what controls aft cargo heat

Answer 27

- bleed air from center section of bleed air duct - thermal switch in compartment opens and closes temp control valve - overheat switch opens/closes overheat valve

Question 28

what hyd systems power elevator feel

Answer 28

2 and 3

Question 29

if hyd 2 and 3 fail what provides elevator feel forces and what are its limitations

Answer 29

mechanical springs - not based on speed
