A spring-loaded locking solenoid.

Hydraulic pressure.

Correct! Wrong!

Landing gear downlocks are disengaged:

By action of the gear squat switches.

By mechanical linkage as the gear begins to retract.

By removing the external downlock pins.

When hydraulic pressure is applied to the retract side of the main gear actuators and the nose gear downlock release actuator.

Correct! Wrong!

The ANTISKID FAIL CAS amber message displays when:

Loss of the emergency brakes.

Loss of the speedbrakes.

Loss of touchdown protection.

Loss of the power brakes.

Correct! Wrong!

Before movement of the aircraft on the ground:

Emergency exit should be removed.

Disengage the rudder (gust) lock.

Flaps should be extended to TO.

Speedbrakes should be extended.

Correct! Wrong!

Each main gear wheel incorporates three fusible plugs that:

Melt, deflating the tire if an overheated brake event occurs.

Is thrown out by centrifugal force if maximum wheel speed is exceeded.

Blow out if the tire is overserviced with air.

Are DC powered.

Correct! Wrong!

The gear cannot be retracted when the airspeed is above _____

185 KIAS.

180 KIAS.

170 KIAS.

175 KIAS.

Correct! Wrong!

Each inboard-retracting main gear uses two hydraulic actuators (one for uplock release and one for gear actuation). Three more hydraulic actuators perform these duties for the forward-retracting nose gear.

True.

False.

Correct! Wrong!

When using the emergency brakes, the pilot shall not:

Pump the emergency brake handle and use the parking brake.

Use the speedbrakes.

Pump the emergency brake handle.

Use the parking brake.

Correct! Wrong!

With the NO TIRE SPINDOWN amber CAS message displayed in the CAS window:

Airspeed should be reduced to 150 KIAS.

The flight crew shall not select flaps beyond approach.

Damage to the wheel well from loose tread. and debris could result.

The flight crew shall not deploy the speedbrakes.

Correct! Wrong!

It takes _____ to extend the landing gear.

Fiveteen seconds.

Ten seconds.

Correct! Wrong!

What landing gear systems are affected if a WOW message appears prior to touchdown?

The antiskid system may not operate normally.

The emergency brake system may be inoperative.

The parking brake may be inoperative.

Correct! Wrong!

At airspeeds up to 250 KIAS, the gear can be extended (VLO). The aircraft can be flown with the gear extended at airspeeds up to _____

250 KIAS (VLE).

230 KIAS (VLE).

255 KIAS (VLE).

210 KIAS (VLE).

Correct! Wrong!

At extension, if the nose gear does not lock in the down position, the gear panel indications are:

All four lights extinguished.

Red light illuminated, green LH and RH lights illuminated.

Red light illuminated and all three green lights extinguished.

Red light extinguished, green LH and RH lights illuminated.

Correct! Wrong!

Normally, the landing gear is hydraulically actuated, but if the normal gear actuation system fails, the gear can be mechanically and electrically released and extended.

True.

False.

Correct! Wrong!

The gear can be mechanically and pneumatically (not electrically) released and extended.
