When using the emergency brake:

The handle should be pumped.

Differential braking is not available.

Antiskid protection is provided.

Nosewheel steering is inoperative.

Correct! Wrong!

Each main gear wheel incorporates three fusible plugs that:

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

Are DC powered.

Blow out if the tire is overserviced with air.

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

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.

False.

True.

Correct! Wrong!

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

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 _____

210 KIAS (VLE).

250 KIAS (VLE).

255 KIAS (VLE).

230 KIAS (VLE).

Correct! Wrong!

The ANTISKID FAIL CAS amber message displays when:

Loss of the speedbrakes.

Loss of the emergency brakes.

Loss of touchdown protection.

Loss of the power brakes.

Correct! Wrong!

Before movement of the aircraft on the ground:

Flaps should be extended to TO.

Speedbrakes should be extended.

Disengage the rudder (gust) lock.

Emergency exit should be removed.

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.

False.

True.

Correct! Wrong!

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

Red light illuminated and all three green lights extinguished.

All four lights extinguished.

Red light illuminated, green LH and RH lights illuminated.

Red light extinguished, green LH and RH lights illuminated.

Correct! Wrong!

The landing gear uplocks are:

Pneumatically engaged.

Hydraulically disengaged.

Mechanically held engaged by springs.

Mechanically held engaged by springs and hydraulically disengaged.

Correct! Wrong!

When using the emergency brakes, the pilot shall not:

Pump the emergency brake handle and use the parking brake.

Pump the emergency brake handle.

Use the speedbrakes.

Use the parking brake.

Correct! Wrong!

The gear cannot be retracted when the airspeed is above _____

180 KIAS.

175 KIAS.

170 KIAS.

185 KIAS.

Correct! Wrong!

Landing gear downlocks are disengaged:

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.

By mechanical linkage as the gear begins to retract.

By action of the gear squat switches.

Correct! Wrong!

On the ground, the LANDING GEAR handle is prevented from movement to the GEAR UP position by:

Hydraulic pressure.

A spring-loaded locking solenoid.

A manually applied handle locking device.

Mechanical detents.

Correct! Wrong!

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

The parking brake may be inoperative.

The emergency brake system may be inoperative.

The power brakes may be inoperative.

The antiskid system may not operate normally.

Correct! Wrong!

It takes _____ to extend the landing gear.

Six seconds.

Ten seconds.

Nine seconds.

Fiveteen seconds.

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.

The flight crew shall not deploy the speedbrakes.

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

Correct! Wrong!
