1) Wheel speed information is used in auto speed brake systems Report

to stow the spoilers automatically when the aircraft has nearly stopped

to ensure the aircraft has touched down and to give a slight time lapse before spoiler deployment

to ensure the aircraft is still rolling

2) A fusible plug fitted to an aircraft wheel prevents Report

over inflation of tyres during servicing

tyre bursts due to high temperatures created by excessive braking

brakes seizure, if brake stators and rotors weld together under excessive temperatures

3) If the shuttle valve was stuck in the normal position Report

emergency braking will not be available

normal braking will not be available

neither system will be available

4) The breaker strip of a tyre is fitted Report

between the apex strip and the casing piles

between the bead and the casing piles

between the tread rubber and the casing piles

5) Nose wheel steering in a modern aircraft is by Report

rudder pedals

the control column

a separate pilot operated control

6) The fusible plugs installed in some aircraft wheel will Report

facilitate servicing of the wheel assembly

melt at a specified elevated temperature

eliminate the need to check air pressure

7) Excessive wear in the shoulder area of an aircraft tyre is an indication of Report

under-inflation

over-inflation

excessive toe-in

8) Ribbed tyres with marker tie bars may be worn to Report

the top of the tie bar

the base of the tie bar

1 mm from the rib base

9) On large aircraft, bogie type undercarriages are used to Report

spread the weight over a large area

absorb increased landing shock

prevent skidding

10) To position the bogie beam at a suitable angle for retraction and landing, a Report

castoring damper is used

snubber is used

hop damper is used

11) On large aircraft, braked wheel assemblies are normally inflated with Report

nitrogen

an argon and CO2 mixture

nitrogen and not more than 5% of air

12) Brake deboosters Report

increase the hydraulic pressure entering the brakes

reduce the hydraulic pressure entering the brakes

assist the operation of the anti-skid unit

13) A modulator is fitted in conjunction with Report

brake control valves

non-return valve

anti-skid units

14) In the case of pressurized aircraft, the nose-wheel bay Report

is subject to cabin pressure

is pressurized to a value higher than ambient but less than cabin pressure

is not pressurized

15) An undercarriage that has the axle mounted directly onto the shock absorber is of which type Report

Articulated

Direct Acting

Hydro Mechanical

16) The minimum aquaplaning ground speed is Report

9.6 times the root square of the tyre pressure in psi

8.6 times the root square of the tyre pressure in psi

8.6 times the tyre pressure in bar

17) Tubed tyres are stored Report

horizontally, up to 4 in total staggering them to prevent distortion of beads

horizontally, up to 4 in total with the smallest at the top

horizontally, up to 4 in total in a rack with supporting tubes so each tyre is supported at 2 points

18) On a main landing gear, what is positive camber? Report

Top of wheels closer to fuselage

Front of wheels closer to fuselage

Bottom of wheels closer to fuselage

19) When the landing gear is locked up, the cockpit indicator shows Report

red light

green light

no indication

20) When checking the alignment of a main landing gear, check Report

symmetry, tracking, camber

symmetry, tracking, twist

symmetry, tracking, splay
