How many pumps do the A and B system have?

2


1 Engine driven pump


1 AC driven pump

What will cause the OVERHEAT light to illuminate in the hydraulic system?

An overheat in either Electric motor pump

Why is 1675LBS of fuel required in each main tank?

It is an additional source of cooling for the electric hydraulic pumps

System A - If a leak develops in the Engine driven pump how much fluid is available?

~20% as the remaining fluid is collected below the standpipe

System A - If a leak is detected in the electric driven pump what quantity of fluid is available?

0%

If a leak occurs in either Engine driven pump OR Electric driven pump in the B system how much fluid remains for that system?

0%

What happens if 0% fluid remains in the B system?

Fluid will be sufficient to run through the Power Transfer Unit (PTU) which is pressurized from its own Hydraulically driven pump using system A pressure

What is the purpose of the PTU?

Operate Autoslats, leading edge flaps and slats when System B Engine driven pump volume is lost

What does the landing gear transfer unit do?

Provides hydraulic pressure to raise the gear when the Number 1 engine RPM drops below a limit value (engine 1 Hydraulic pumps fails) and the airplane is airborne and gear handle in UP position.

What pressurizes the Standby hydraulic system?

1 Electric driven pump

What will the Standby hydraulic system provide pressure to? (5)

Both TR


Rudder


Leading edge flaps and slats (extend only)


Standby yaw damper and rudder PCU


Autoslats

What are two ways to manually turn the standby pump on?

Positioning either FLT CONTROL switch to STBY RUD or ALTERNATE FLAPS master switch to ARM

When does the Standby System pump automatically engage? (2)

Loss of System A or B, and


Flaps extended, and


Airborne, or wheel speed greater than 60 knots, and


FLT CONTROL switch A or B Hydraulic System ON



OR



Force Fight Monitor activates

What happens when a leak occurs in the Standby System?

The Standby system fluid quantity goes to 0

What is meant when the GEAR lights are RED?

Landing gear is not down and locked or gear is in disagreement with landing gear lever position (transit)

Moving the landing gear lever to the OFF position does what?

Hydraulic power is removed from the landing gear system

Is manual gear extension possible with no hydraulic A system pressure?

Yes

What conditions causes the RTO braking to engage?

When thrust levers are moved to idle at or above 90 knots



**Ground spoilers for RTO will not deploy until Reverse TL are positioned for reverse thrust.



This is the reason we move speedbrake handle to UP during RTO manoeuvre.

How do you know the parking brake is set?

The red light will illuminate

Rudder pedals provide how much nose gear deflection?

7 degrees

The tiller rotates the nose wheel how many degrees?

78 degrees

Is Autobrakes available with both normal and alternate Brakes?

No, just normal brakes

Is antiskid provided on Normal and Alternate braking systems?

Yes and accumulator braking

How is the landing gear held in the up position?

Uplocks

If both A and B systems are lost is it possible to use brakes?

Yes, the accumulator provides limited braking applications

How do you check hydraulic quantity and pressure?

SYS page on the MFD System switch

What has happened if the A or B LOW PRESSURE lights illuminate on the flight control panel?

Low pressure is sensed to the Ailerons, Rudder and Elevator in either system

Where is the hydraulic pressure of the accumulator shown?

Hydraulic Brake pressure indicator on the FO side

What system pressurises the Brake Accumulator?

System B

How do you know the RTO Autobrake self test was successful?

When selecting RTO on the ground a self test is completed. While that test is being completed the DISARM light illuminates for 1-2 seconds. When that light extinguishes the self test is complete.

Does the Autobrake do a landing turn on self test?

Yes, if the Autobrake DISARM light illuminates the test was not successful

How do you release the uplocks of the gear using the manual system?

Open the Manual Extension Access Door and pull each lever to its limit

When is the BRAKE TEMP light illuminated?

When a hot brake condition is indicated on the DU

If a main tyre is damaged during TO, what happens during gear retraction?

Gear will free fall if it doesn't fit in the wheel well.


(Frangible fitting)

After landing when do the autobrakes engage?

Both thrust levers are retarded to idle AND main wheels spin up

How do you disarm the Autobrakes? (4)

Move Autobrake lever to OFF


Speed brake lever to DOWN detent


Advance thrust levers 3 seconds after touch down


Manual Braking

Where are the Hydraulic reservoirs?

Main wheel well area

What pressurizes the Hydraulic reservoirs?

Bleed air

What Hydraulic source does the PTU receive it's fluid from and how is it pressurized?

Fluid from the B system reservoir, the system uses System A pressure to power a Hydraulic motor driven pump

When does the PTU automatically operate?

System B engine driven pump Hydraulic pressure drops below limits


Airborne


Flaps are less than 15 but not up

What Hydraulic system normally pressurizes the Autoslats and LE Devices? If fluid volume is lost what occurs?

The B system. If fluid volume is lost in the B system the PTU takes over and if that is lost than the Standby system takes over

When does the LOW QUANTITY light illuminate on the standby system?

When fluid is 50% in the standby Hydraulic reservoir

When all the landing gear indicator lights are extinguished what does that indicate?

Gear is locked in up position

Which way does the nose gear retract into the wheel well and how are the wheels stopped from spinning?

Forward and snubbers stop the wheel spin

With the manual gear extension door open is extension and retraction still available using the gear handle?

Extension yes, provided there is System A Hydraulic pressure.
