Q

If a shock absorber does not fully extend on takeoff, what might be the result?

A

The PSEM senses an aircraft on ground condition. The result is the landing gear lever is locked down. DO NOT USE THE DOWN LOCK RELEASE BUTTON UNLESS TERRAIN CLEARANCE IS IN QUESTION.

Q

What does the ELECTRICAL OVERRIDE EXTENSION accomplish?

A

It bypasses the PSEM in the event of a landing gear control box failure and extends the gear in the same sequence as normal operation.

Q

What are the functions of the BCM - Brake Control Module

A

Locked wheel Protection
Anti-skid protection
Automatic wheel braking
Touchdown protection

17
Q

When is locked wheel protection active?

A

At wheel speeds above 30 kts

18
Q

What is the system logic for wheel protection?

A

It compares the wheel speed of either the Left AND Right OUTBOARD brakes, or the Left AND Right INBOARD brakes and commands zero pressure to the brake of the slower wheel if wheel speed is 33% or below it’s paired wheel speed.

19
Q

When is the Anti-skid system active?

A

Wheel speeds above 10 kts

20
Q

Does the anti skid system protect against tire skidding when using the parking brake?

A

NO

21
Q

What is touch down protection?

A

Prevents the aircraft from touching down with the main landing gear brakes applied

22
Q

When is touch down protection active?

A

On landing until 3 seconds WOW or

wheel speed of + 50 kts

23
Q

What powers the emergency parking brake?

A

Hydraulic systems 1 and 2

24
Q

How many full brake applications are available with the parking brake accumulators?

A

6 applications

25
Q

What might cause a STEER FAIL message?

A

After power up, the first steering engagement must take place with the aircraft stopped. The reason is there is a hard over test that won’t be successful.

26
Q

If taxiing at 28 kts, what is the maximum steering deflection?

A

20 degrees

27
Q

The maximum steering deflection as the aircraft approaches 100 kts is what?

A

7 degrees

28
Q

The maximum steering deflection is ___ up to ____ kts?

A

76 degrees up to 10 kts

29
Q

What is the maximum steering angle using the rudder pedals?

A

7 degrees

30
Q

What is the minimum turn radius with max steering input?

A

59 ft 2 inches… Good Luck with that!!
