The system is in primary mode.

3 / 15

When do the alternate pitch trim levers move the stabilizer?

Only on the ground.

The levers move the stabilizer directly at all times.

When the autopilot is disengaged.

During flight control secondary and direct modes.

4 / 15

Which statement is true when the primary flight computer disconnect dwitch is positioned to DISC?

All of the above.

Protection features are NOT available.

The system operates in direct mode.

Autopilot is not available.

5 / 15

What can you say about the FLAPS DRIVE EICAS message?

The flaps will operate in secondary mode.

The EICAS flap indicator display turns magenta.

Arm the alternate system.

The message is displayed when the flap drive mechanism has been shut down due to an asymmetry.

6 / 15

What is the correct statement?

Moving the alternate pitch trim levers with the autopilot engaged does not move the stabilizer.

Moving the alternate pitch trim levers during stall or overspeed protection does not move the stabilizer

Aileron trim in inhibited when the autopilot is engaged.

All statements are correct.

7 / 15

What is the effect of placing a stabilizer cutout switch to cutout?

Disconnects hydraulic supply to STCM.

Engages gust suppression.

Connects hydraulic supply to STCM.

Disable direct rudder control.

8 / 15

Under what conditions does the SPEEDBRAKE EXTENDED EICAS message display?

Speedbrakes are extended and the airplane is above 800 feet RA.

Speedbrakes are extended and landing flaps are selected or RA is between 15 and 800 feet.

Any time speedbrakes are extended.

After landing, if speedbrakes fail to extend.

9 / 15

Which of the following is not a stall protection feature?

Stab trim is inhibited in the nose up direction at approximately the minimum manoeuvring speed.

The out-of-trim forces increase above normal for a condition above the minimum manoeuvre speed.

The pilot must apply continuous aft column force to maintain airspeed below the manoeuvring speed.

Use of alternate pitch trim levers reduces the column forces below the minimum manoeuvring speed.

10 / 15

What causes the SPEEDNRAKE EXTENDED message to display on the EICAS?

Speedbrake is extended when radio altitude is between 15 and 800 ft.
