When can the ground handling bus be powered?
- A.
On the ground, with either APU or external power available.
- B.
Only when the APU is running while on the ground
- C.
Either on the ground or in flight, with APU power available.
- D.
On the ground, with the ground service switch selected.
Correct Answer
A. On the ground, with either APU or external power available.Explanation
The ground handling bus can be powered when the aircraft is on the ground and either the APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) or external power is available. This means that the bus can be powered by either the onboard APU or by an external power source connected to the aircraft. It is important to have the ground handling bus powered during ground operations to provide electrical power for various equipment and systems, such as loading and unloading cargo, servicing the aircraft, and other ground handling operations.Rate this question:

Which statement is true regarding fuel crossfeed?
- A.
Crossfeed valves are normally open, providing fuel feed from tank to engine.
- B.
Although there are two valves, only open crosfeed valve is required for successful crossfeed operatrion.
- C.
There is only one crossfeed valve even though there are two switches to control it.
- D.
Fuel crossfeed can only be accomplished in the air.
Correct Answer
B. Although there are two valves, only open crosfeed valve is required for successful crossfeed operatrion.Explanation
Fuel crossfeed is a process in which fuel is transferred from one tank to another during flight. In this case, the correct answer states that although there are two valves, only the open crossfeed valve is required for successful crossfeed operation. This means that if one of the valves is closed or not functioning, the crossfeed operation can still be achieved as long as the open valve is functioning properly. This information suggests that both valves do not need to be open simultaneously for fuel crossfeed to occur.Rate this question:

When connecting a Ground Air Conditioning Cart, what action is required in order to allow the cart to operate at maximum efficiency?
- A.
Pack Control Selectors………………MAN
- B.
Pack Control Selectors………………AUTO
- C.
Recirculation Fans Switches…………ON
- D.
Recruitment Fans Switches…………OFF
Correct Answer
D. Recruitment Fans Switches…………OFFExplanation
To allow the ground air conditioning cart to operate at maximum efficiency, the recruitment fans switches need to be turned off. This is because the recruitment fans are used to bring in outside air into the aircraft, which can decrease the efficiency of the air conditioning system. By turning off the recruitment fans, the cart can focus solely on providing cool air to the aircraft without the need to constantly bring in outside air.Rate this question:

After application of de-icing fluids to the exterior of the airplane, how long should you wait before restoring normal Engine and APU bleed air operation?
- A.
Approximately 1 minute
- B.
3 minutes
- C.
5 minutes
- D.
None, normal bleed air operation is allowed during de-icing procedures.
Correct Answer
A. Approximately 1 minuteExplanation
After the application of de-icing fluids to the exterior of the airplane, it is recommended to wait for approximately 1 minute before restoring normal Engine and APU bleed air operation. This waiting period allows the de-icing fluids to properly remove any ice or frost buildup on the aircraft's surfaces. Restoring normal bleed air operation too soon may result in the fluids not being effective in removing all the ice or frost, which could potentially affect the aircraft's performance and safety.Rate this question:

At what fuel quantity would the fuel imbalance pointer be displayed?
- A.
Main tank fuel differs more than 1000 pounds (500 kg).
- B.
Main tank fuel offers by more than 200 pounds (100 kg) and the crossfeed valve is open
- C.
Fuel difference between any tank is greater than 1000 pounds (500kg)
- D.
Main tank fuel differs more than 1000 pounds (500 kg) or the main tank fuel differs more than 200 pounds (100kg) and a crossfeed valve is open.
Correct Answer
D. Main tank fuel differs more than 1000 pounds (500 kg) or the main tank fuel differs more than 200 pounds (100kg) and a crossfeed valve is open.Explanation
The fuel imbalance pointer would be displayed when the main tank fuel differs more than 1000 pounds (500 kg) or when the main tank fuel differs more than 200 pounds (100 kg) and a crossfeed valve is open. This means that if there is a significant difference in fuel quantity between the main tanks or if there is a smaller difference but the crossfeed valve is open, the fuel imbalance pointer will be displayed to indicate the fuel imbalance.Rate this question:

With a combination of light gross weight and aft CG, what considerations should the pilot take to improve take-off controllability?
- A.
None. The airplane automatically compensates
- B.
Use reduced thrust combined with a rolling takeoff
- C.
Use maximum take-off thrust
- D.
Use 1 additional unit of nose down trim
Correct Answer
B. Use reduced thrust combined with a rolling takeoffExplanation
When the aircraft has a light gross weight and an aft center of gravity (CG), it can result in reduced controllability during takeoff. To improve the controllability, the pilot should use reduced thrust combined with a rolling takeoff. This means using less power during the takeoff and initiating the rotation smoothly to prevent any sudden pitch changes. This technique helps in maintaining better control over the aircraft during the critical phase of takeoff, ensuring a safer and more stable departure.Rate this question:

Take of stabilizer trim setting is computed by the FMC using which of the following?
- A.
Only the airplane gross weight
- B.
CG and runway length
- C.
CG, gross weight, and take-off thrust
- D.
CG and takeoff thrust
Correct Answer
C. CG, gross weight, and take-off thrustExplanation
The FMC (Flight Management Computer) computes the takeoff stabilizer trim setting using the aircraft's center of gravity (CG), gross weight, and takeoff thrust. These factors are crucial in determining the appropriate trim setting for a safe and balanced takeoff. The CG affects the aircraft's stability and balance, while the gross weight and takeoff thrust impact the aircraft's performance during takeoff. By considering all three factors, the FMC ensures that the stabilizer trim setting is optimized for a successful takeoff.Rate this question:

When does the EICAS message APU LIMIT display?
- A.
When the APU has increased EGT
- B.
When the APU has increased oil temperature or reduced oil pressure
- C.
When APU operation has exceeded a limit
- D.
When the APU has automatically shut down for exceeding a limit
Correct Answer
C. When APU operation has exceeded a limitExplanation
The EICAS message APU LIMIT displays when the APU operation has exceeded a limit. This means that the APU has been running for a longer period of time or at a higher power output than it is designed for. This could be due to various factors such as excessive heat buildup, increased oil temperature, reduced oil pressure, or any other condition that could potentially damage the APU. The display of this message serves as a warning to the pilot or maintenance personnel to take appropriate action to prevent further damage or potential failure of the APU.Rate this question:
