True.

False.

Correct! Wrong!

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

The ANTISKID FAIL CAS amber message displays when:

Correct! Wrong!

Each main gear wheel incorporates three fusible plugs that:

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

Are DC powered.

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

Blow out if the tire is overserviced with air.

Correct! Wrong!

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

Airspeed should be reduced to 150 KIAS.

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

The flight crew shall not select flaps beyond approach.

The flight crew shall not deploy the speedbrakes.

Correct! Wrong!

It takes _____ to extend the landing gear.

Six seconds.

Nine seconds.

Fiveteen seconds.

Ten seconds.

Correct! Wrong!

Before movement of the aircraft on the ground:

Emergency exit should be removed.

Speedbrakes should be extended.

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!

The gear cannot be retracted when the airspeed is above _____

185 KIAS.

180 KIAS.

175 KIAS.

170 KIAS.

Correct! Wrong!

When using the emergency brake:

Differential braking is not available.

Antiskid protection is provided.

The handle should be pumped.

Correct! Wrong!

The landing gear uplocks are:

Mechanically held engaged by springs.

Hydraulically disengaged.

Pneumatically engaged.

Mechanically held engaged by springs and hydraulically disengaged.

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!

Landing gear downlocks are disengaged:

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

By action of the gear squat switches.

By removing the external downlock pins.

By mechanical linkage as the gear begins to retract.

Correct! Wrong!

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

The power brakes may be inoperative.

The parking brake may be inoperative.

The antiskid system may not operate normally.

The emergency brake system may be inoperative.

Correct! Wrong!
