Correct! Wrong!

When using the emergency brakes, the pilot shall not:

Pump the emergency brake handle and use the parking brake.

Use the parking brake.

Pump the emergency brake handle.

Use the speedbrakes.

Correct! Wrong!

The landing gear uplocks are:

Pneumatically engaged.

Hydraulically disengaged.

Mechanically held engaged by springs and hydraulically disengaged.

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).

255 KIAS (VLE).

True.

False.

Correct! Wrong!

Each main gear wheel incorporates three fusible plugs that:

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

Blow out if the tire is overserviced with air.

Are DC powered.

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

Correct! Wrong!

Loss of the emergency brakes.

Loss of the power brakes.

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 mechanical linkage as the gear begins to retract.

By removing the external downlock pins.

By action of the gear squat switches.

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.

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