recommended.

elevators.

elevators.

11) In the yaw axis, pilot inputs act directly on the:

Rudder.
Rudder tab and through a spring on the rudder itself.
Rudder via an HYDRAULIC ACTUATOR.

12) Spring tab function reduces pilot’s effort:

At high speed.
At any speed.
At low speed.
13) How is controlled and operated the yaw trim action?
Electrically controlled and hydraulically operated.
Mechanically controlled and electrically operated.
Electrically controlled and operated.

14) How works the rudder trim?

Rudder moves as well as the control neutral position.
Rudder moves but the control neutral stays in position.
Rudder and the control neutral stay in position.

15) The yaw trim position indicator shows:

Units of trim motor displacement from neutral.
Rudder position.
Tab position.

16) An aural whooler alert is generated by CCAS in case of:

Pitch trim rocker use for more than 1 second..
1° Movement on pitch trim position indicator.
1° Movement on yaw trim position indicator.

17) The gust lock system acts on:

Roll control, pitch control and rudder control.
Roll control and pitch control.
Roll control and rudder control.

18) Stick shaker advice is activated by:

One STICK SHAKER ACTUATOR, attached directly on F/O’s control
column.
One STICK SHAKER ACTUATOR, attached directly on CPT’s control
column.
Two STICK SHAKER ACTUATORS, each one attached directly on F/O’s
and CPT’s control columns.

19) The stick pusher actuator is attached to the linkage of:

CPT’s control column.
F/O control column.
CPT’s and F/O’s control columns.

20) The flaps are controlled by actuators powered by the BLUE hydraulic system. How is the
flap hydraulic valve block controlled?
Electrically by DC STBY BUS.
Mechanically.
Electrically by DC BUS 1.

21) What is the meaning of the blue EXT flag on the flaps position indicator?
Flap valve is hydraulically commanding flaps extension.
With flaps extended, it indicates a hydraulic leak.
Flap valve is hydraulically commanding flaps extension. With flaps extended,
it indicates a hydraulic leak.

22) How is flaps asymmetry detected?

The maximum asymmetry authorized by the system is approximately 9?, no
specific alert is provided.
By the CCAS activation (MASTER WARNING).
By the CCAS activation (MASTER CAUTION).

23) What happens when flaps asymmetry occurs?

Electrical power to the flap control system is isolated and flaps are locked in
position.
Flaps control lever has no control on the system.
All of the above.
24) Flap unlock red light on CAP and warning alert is triggered when:
Flaps retract untimely more than 3° when flaps are selected at 30? or more.
Flaps retract untimely more than 3° when flaps are selected at 15? or more.
Flaps retract untimely more than 10° when flaps are selected at 45?.

25) The stick pusher actuator is attached to the linkage from which control column?
Captain’s
First Officer’s
Both control linkages

26) If the STBY PITCH trim switch on the pedestal is used for more than 1 second, an aural
whooler alert is generated by the CCAS.
True
False

27) The pitch trim switches on the yokes use power from which bus?
