ACGEN_003
(All) Explain the function of the 3 positions of the EMER LTS Switch (Flight Deck):
OFF
- Prevents emergency evacuation lights from illuminating.
- EMER LIGHT NOT ARMED message is on.
- Can be overridden and emer. lts. switched ON at EMERGENCY LIGHTS switch on fwd FA’s panel.
ARM
- Normal flight position. Emer. evacuation lights are off.
- Connects batt. packs charging circuits to EMER DC BUS.
- Emer. evacuation lights illuminate automatically w/ loss of power to EMER DC bus.
ON – Simulates elec power failure. All emer evacuation lights & EMER LIGHT NOT ARMED message illuminate.
ACGEN_004
(All) Can emergency lights can be activated from the Flight Attendant’s Panel regardless of flight deck switch position?
• Switch to ARM (mometary) then releasing to ON illuminates emergency evacuation lights regardless of position of flight deck EMER LTS switch.
ACGEN_005
(All) Specify the number and location of all emergency exits.
10 aircraft emergency exits: • Two flight deck sliding windows. • Forward cabin door. • Forward galley door. • Aft galley door. • Aft cabin door (through tailcone). • Four overwing exits.
ACGEN_006
Purpose of emergency lighting? How long the battery packs will provide power?
Emer. lighting system provides minimal illumination of flight deck, cabin & exit areas to facilitate aircraft evacuation
• W/ flight deck EMER LTS switch in ARM position, emergency lights automatically illuminate when power from DC Emergency Bus is lost.
• System uses incandescent bulbs powered by rechargeable batt packs which provide power for 15’
ACGEN_007
Locate the flight deck indications for access, emergency and cargo doors:
OAP will display amber caution msg and illuminate DOOR cue if any of following doors is not closed and/or latched:
• Access: ACCESS COMPT, ELECT COMPT, AFT STAIRWAY
• Emergency: FWD CABIN, FWD GALLEY, AFT GALLEY, AFT CABIN, AFT STAIRWAY.
• Cargo: FORWARD CARGO, MID CARGO, AFT CARGO
ACGEN_008
Describe the standby lighting that is available on Emergency Power:
When EMER PWR (emergency power) switch is selected ON w/ normal electrical power off and BATT switch ON, standby lighting will illuminate CA’s and First FO’s instrument panel floodlights.
• Lights receive pwr from emergency DC bus and DC transfer bus.
• Floodlights can be individually adjusted from min - max intensity using respective floodlights knob.
• Immediate bright floodlighting can be obtained by moving the THDRSTRM LT switch to ON.
ACGEN_010
Recommended pavement width for a 180 turn:
Recommended pavement width for a 180° turn is 125 feet.
ACGEN_011
Describe relationship of the nose, wing and tail during a turn:
Nose clearance guarantees tail or wing tip will clear, however, if wing tip alone clears, the tail may not clear.
ACGEN_012
Describe how nose gear landing and taxi lights are affected when the landing gear handle is moved to the up position:
- Nose gear landing and taxi lights automatically extinguish when gear handle is moved up.
- Light circuit is interlocked so that nose lights only illuminate when gear handle is in the DOWN position.
ACGEN_013
Understand how the strobe lights are affected when the aircraft becomes airborne:
Wing tip strobes operate only when POS/STROBE switch is in BOTH and nose wheel is off the ground
ACGEN_015
Function of AUTO position of NO SMOK and SEAT BELTS switches:
NO SMOK Switch
• AUTO - Chime sounds when landing gear is extended.
SEAT BELTS Switch
• AUTO - FASTEN SEAT BELTS and RETURN TO CABIN signs illuminate when slats are extended. Chime sounds.
ACGEN_017
OAP / Master Caution alerts for an open DOOR indication:
- With parking brakes set, door open annunciations will not appear on display screen. DOOR cue light flashes 4x when first door is opened and remains on steady as other doors are opened.
- Master Caution light will not illuminate for a DOOR cue.
- The DOOR cue light cannot be dimmed
ACGEN_019
Understand the function of the MD-90 Status Cue Light on the Enhanced Overhead Annunciator Panel (EOAP):
• Status Cue Light (blue) below EOAP screens. Replaces MONITOR light. Advises second level message is stored in status buffer requiring no procedural action by flight crew.
ACGEN_024
Understand the operation of the Master Caution lights:
MASTER CAUTION Light (2) (amber)
• Both lights will illuminate when caution messages are displayed on the OAP.
• Pushing either light will extinguish both MASTER CAUTION lights and reset the system for subsequent indications.
ACGEN_018
Describe the operation of the Master Warning lights:
MASTER WARNING Light (2) (red)
• Both lights will illuminate when red lights on annunciator panel illuminate.
• Pushing either light will extinguish both MASTER WARNING lights and reset the system for subsequent indications.
ACGEN_020
Recall flight crew oxygen system location and indications.
- Flight crew O2 system uses quick donning mask regulators located at each crew station. O2 is supplied from single cylinder located behind FO’s seat.
- Cylinder is equipped w/ bottle pressure gauge and a shutoff valve that controls oxygen supply to the system.
- System line pressure is indicated on aft ovhd panel.
ACGEN_021
Describe the function of the PASS OXY MASK Switch:
- EJECT - (Momentary) Energizes circuit to release door latches and open all oxygen compartment doors at any altitude.
- NORM - Door latches on all oxygen compartments will open automatically any time cabin altitude reaches approximately 14,000 feet.
CAUTION: Holding switch in EJECT position in excess of five seconds may cause damage to the oxygen compartment latches
ACGEN_022
Recall the OAP Blue Advisory Lights associated with an activated passenger oxygen system:
CABIN OXYGEN ON - Left and right aft cabin oxygen door latches have been activated.
ACGEN_023
Recall minimum crew oxygen pressure:
• Minimum Pressure 1,000 psi
