1) In a triplex system, the detection of a failure of one simplex system will disconnect Report

all channels

the failed system and carry on with an autoland

the failed system and continue with a manual approach

2) Stand off errors on localiser approach are washed out by Report

Differentiating deviation signal

Integrating deviation signal

Integrating course error

3) With autothrottle selected in the S P E E D M O D E compatible autopilot modes are Report

V O R Arm and H D G Hold

I A S Hold and A L T Arm

V / S and A L T Arm

4) Which modes are incompatible Report

V O R + A L T I T U D E HOLD

G / S + A L T I T UD E HOLD

H D G + V / S HOLD

5) To carry out an autopilot check first Report

switch off all power

ensure all control surfaces are unobstructed

switch on NAV receivers

6) FAIL PASSIVE means Report

system self monitors, failure does not affect system

system self monitors, failure does affect system

system is duplicated, failure allows aircraft to continue autoland

7) On the approach the autopilot loses the LOC signal; the aircraft would Report

fly a circle

increase its drift angle

fly parallel to the beam

8) The Airworthiness requirements for the autopilot / autoland system are laid down in Report

J A R A W O

C A I Ps

B C A Rs

9) V O R capture can be determined by Report

a predetermined level of the course error signal away from the selected radial

is computed from the vectorial summation of the course error and radio deviation signals

a predetermined level of the V O R deviation signal away from the selected radial

10) Versine is generated by Report

torque receiver synchros

synchros resolvers

control synchro transformers

11) Automatic trim is used to Report

maintain level flight

prevents standing loads on the elevator

allow full authority to be regained by the aileron

12) An over station sensor (OSS) is triggered by Report

measured radio deviation

rate of change of radio deviation

rate of change of course

13) Synchronisation circuits in autopilots ensure Report

that the trim indicators will read zero prior to engagement

that the autopilot control circuits are at zero demand conditions engagement

that the aircraft will always be returned to straight and level flight when the autopilot is engaged

14) In the FMS vertical navigation (V NAV) climb mode the throttles are used for Report

maintaining a computed EPR

controlling to a maximum thrust

correction minor speed deviations

15) The G A mode is usually initiated by Report

pressing a button on the control wheel

pressing a button on thrust levers

making a selection on the mode control panel

16) On selection of the Turbulence Mode Report

the gain is doubled to reduce oscillation

the gain remains the same but signals are phase advanced

the gain is reduced to prevent stresses to the airframe

17) To know the valid data base on the FMS Report

perform a BITE check

call up the relevant page on the CDU

call up the relevant current status

18) Co-ordinated autopilot turns are achieved by Report

yaw rate gyro signals

aileron to rudder crossfeed

aileron to elevator crossfeed

19) A yaw damper system operates on Report

all yaw frequencies

only mid range frequencies

low range frequencies

20) A GCR will trip if what is detected? Report

Under frequency and over frequency

Over frequency and under current

Over current and over frequency
