What is the primary purpose of the R–14 ATHRS?
- A.
Transferring large quantities of fuel
- B.
Blending multiple fuel additives at different ratios
- C.
Servicing aircraft where permanent systems are not available
- D.
Servicing small aircraft and transferring small quantities of fuel
Correct Answer
C. Servicing aircraft where permanent systems are not availableExplanation
The primary purpose of the R-14 ATHRS is to service aircraft where permanent systems are not available. This means that the R-14 ATHRS is designed to provide temporary fuel servicing capabilities for aircraft in situations where there is no permanent fuel servicing infrastructure in place. It allows for the transfer of fuel and servicing of small aircraft that do not have access to permanent fuel systems.Rate this question:

- 2.
On which grades of fuel can the engine on the R–14 ATHRS operate?
- A.
Jet fuel and gasoline
- B.
Diesel fuel and jet fuel
- C.
Diesel fuel and gasoline
- D.
Diesel fuel, jet fuel, and gasoline
Correct Answer
B. Diesel fuel and jet fuelExplanation
The engine on the R-14 ATHRS can operate on diesel fuel and jet fuel. This means that it is capable of running on both types of fuel, allowing for flexibility in its usage. Diesel fuel and jet fuel are commonly used in different types of engines, so having the ability to run on both fuels expands the range of applications for the R-14 ATHRS engine.Rate this question:

At what flow rate does adjustable pilot valve on the R–14 limit high flow?
- A.
300 gpm
- B.
350 gpm
- C.
600 gpm
- D.
650 gpm
Correct Answer
C. 600 gpmExplanation
The adjustable pilot valve on the R-14 limits high flow at a rate of 600 gpm. This means that when the flow rate exceeds 600 gpm, the pilot valve will take action to restrict or control the flow to prevent it from going any higher.Rate this question:

- 5.
Hearing protection is required within how many feet of an R–14 operation?
- A.
10 ft
- B.
20 ft
- C.
50 ft
- D.
100 ft
Correct Answer
C. 50 ftExplanation
Hearing protection is required within 50 feet of an R-14 operation. This means that anyone within a 50-foot radius of the operation should wear hearing protection to prevent damage to their ears. The R-14 operation likely involves loud noises or machinery that can be harmful to one's hearing if proper precautions are not taken. Therefore, it is necessary to wear hearing protection within this specified distance to ensure safety.Rate this question:
-
- 6.
What grade of fuel should be used to flush the R–14 prior to air shipment?
- A.
JP–4
- B.
JP–5
- C.
JP–8
- D.
JPTS
Correct Answer
B. JP–5Explanation
JP-5 should be used to flush the R-14 prior to air shipment. This is because JP-5 is a type of jet fuel that is commonly used in military aircraft. It has a lower flash point and is less volatile compared to other jet fuels such as JP-4 and JP-8. Flushing the R-14 with JP-5 ensures that any residue or contaminants are removed effectively, preparing it for safe air shipment. JPTS is not a recognized grade of fuel and therefore not a suitable option for flushing the R-14.Rate this question:
-
- 7.
What maximum ramp angle can the R–14 negotiate in the high mobility position?
- A.
5°
- B.
10°
- C.
15°
- D.
20°
Correct Answer
D. 20°Explanation
The R-14 can negotiate a maximum ramp angle of 20° in the high mobility position. This means that the vehicle is able to climb a slope with a steepness of up to 20° without losing stability or control. A higher ramp angle would likely exceed the capabilities of the vehicle and could result in it tipping over or becoming stuck. Therefore, 20° is the maximum angle that the R-14 can safely navigate in this position.Rate this question:

- A.
Never
- B.
After initial start up
- C.
Prior to air shipment
- D.
Any time the system has been purged of fuel
Correct Answer
D. Any time the system has been purged of fuelExplanation
Priming the PMU-27M is necessary any time the system has been purged of fuel. When the system is purged of fuel, it means that there is no fuel in the system, which can result in air pockets. Priming the PMU-27M ensures that there are no air pockets in the fuel system, which can cause issues with fuel flow and engine performance. Therefore, it is necessary to prime the PMU-27M after the system has been purged of fuel to ensure proper functioning.Rate this question:

When starting the PMU–27M, the throttle should be placed at
- A.
Idle
- B.
Half speed
- C.
Two-thirds speed
- D.
Full speed
Correct Answer
B. Half speedExplanation
When starting the PMU-27M, the throttle should be placed at half speed. This is because starting the engine at full speed can cause excessive wear and tear on the engine components. Starting at idle may not provide enough power to start the engine smoothly. Starting at two-thirds speed may be too high and may cause the engine to start abruptly. Therefore, half speed is the optimal choice for starting the PMU-27M.Rate this question:

To aid in priming, the PMU–27M is equipped with a priming
- A.
Stem
- B.
Hose
- C.
Valve
- D.
Coupler
Correct Answer
C. ValveExplanation
The PMU-27M is equipped with a priming valve to aid in priming. This valve allows for the controlled release of fluid or air to fill the system and remove any air pockets or blockages. By using the valve, the priming process becomes more efficient and ensures that the system is properly primed before operation. The valve also allows for easy maintenance and troubleshooting, as it can be closed to isolate the system if needed.Rate this question:

For air shipment, the inner tanks of empty cryotainers are pressurized with dry nitrogen gas at a positive pressure of
- A.
10 to 15 psig
- B.
15 to 25 psig
- C.
25 to 30 psig
- D.
30 to 40 psig
Correct Answer
B. 15 to 25 psigExplanation
The correct answer is 15 to 25 psig. When shipping cryotainers by air, the inner tanks are pressurized with dry nitrogen gas to maintain a positive pressure. This is necessary to prevent the collapse of the tanks due to the low atmospheric pressure at high altitudes during air travel. A pressure range of 15 to 25 psig ensures that the tanks remain sufficiently pressurized throughout the journey, providing the necessary stability and safety for the transportation of cryogenic materials.Rate this question:
