Q. When manually operating cargo door by hand pump and flaps in no 2
position..will flap operation take place??? If no why???
Ans: no. due to PTU inhibition logic which will denergise the PTU solenoid which will
prevent the green system to get pressurized and we require press of all 3 hyd
sytems. So the flaps will not move.
Q. What if we forget to check engine oil quantity? (ANS: give engine the DRY

Q. What are the fuelling precautions?
5. What are the diff. b/w CFM n IAE engines? (ANS: CFM engine’s fan blades r
HOLLOW while IAE engine fan blades hv honeycomb str.)?
6. What is Fan Trim Air? (ANS: when any FOD occurs, then the disturbed air get
enters to the compressor)
11. What is MOMENTUM ? (ANS: Bodies in motion have the property called
momentum.
A body that has great momentum has a strong tendency to remain in motion and is
therefore hard to stop. When a force acts upon a body, the momentum of that body
is changed. The rate of change of momentum is proportional to the applied force.
The momentum of a body is defined as the product of its mass and its velocity.
Momentum=mass x velocity . Now if a force is applied, the momentum changes at a
rate equal to the force or: F=rate of change of momentum).

There is one difference between the American National series and the
American Standard Unified series. In 1-inch diameter size, the NF thread specified
14 thread per inch (1-14 NF) while the UNF thread specifies 12 thread per inch (1-12
UNF).

→ Bouser.
70. Wheel change procedure.
→
1. Place the chock on opposite side wheel.
2. Place the axle jack at the jacking point of L/G.
3. Start jacking the wheel till it is clear off the ground.
4. Start deflating the tire using TPG.
5. After confirming that break fan CB pull out, open the locking washer and bolt
by 7/16 deep socket ratchet, remove fan cover.
6. Remove dust cap.
7. Remove the lock from fan and retainer.
8. Remove retainer nut, which is inserted in fan disc slot, by 13/16 ring spanner.
9. Open the clamp by 3/8 deep ratchet socket. Open the cross bolt.
10. Open the axle nut with MLG socket tool.
11. Insert the thread protector.
12. Place the dolly and take the wheel load. Now slightly push the tire from inside
and remove wheel assembly.
13. Clean the axle and apply aeroshell-22 grease on the axle.
14. Now slowly place the new wheel assembly onto the axle with the help of dolly.
15. Before removing thread protector, make sure that wheel is properly aligned
and fitted on the axle.
16. Remove thread protector.
17. Place the axle nut.
18. Give initial torque 310 lb-ft.
19. Then loose the axle nut.
20. Again while turning the wheel in same direction, tighten the nut to 160 lb-ft.
21. If holes for cross bolt are not aligned, slightly turn the nut to align it.
22. Tight the cross bolt to 75-85 in-lb and locked by cotter pin.
23. Place the retainer and tight the clamp.
24. Insert the fan in its slot tight the bolt and locked.
25. Place the dust cap.
26. Place the fan cover and tight by 4 bolt locked by washer.
27. Lower the axle and remove jack.
1. What are the ground spoiler and flight spoiler? Difference between
them.
A: Flight spoilers are used in conjunction with ailerons to provide lateral control
and prevent adverse yaw during aileron operation. But ground spoilers are
used during landing to greatly reduce the lift on the wings and increase drag to
assist in braking.
Flight spoilers and ground spoilers both uses the same spoiler panels. But
when used as ground spoilers, the spoiler panels are deflected to a higher
angle than when used as flight spoilers.
4. What is acceleration?
A: Acceleration is the rate at which the velocity of a body changes with time.
5. Conversion
A: 1 ft.-lbs. = 12 in.-lbs.
3. Which hydraulic system has electrical pump? How green system can be
pressurized on ground when engines are not running?
A: Only the yellow and blue hydraulic system has electrical pumps. With yellow
hydraulic system pressurized, we can pressurize the green system on ground
with the help of Power Transfer Unit or PTU.
13. What are the primary and secondary flight control surfaces of aircraft?
A: The primary flight control surfaces are Aileron, Elevator and Rudder.
The secondary flight control surfaces are leading and trailing edge flaps,
leading edge slats, spoilers, speed brakes and trimmable horizontal stabilizer.
33. In what unit fuel bousers provide us fuel and in what unit it is showed in
airplane? Also state the reason. How will you convert litre into kg?
A: Fuel bousers provide us fuel in litres and in aircraft, it is showed in kilograms.
The reason is that BTU per kilogram is constant irrespective of fuel temperature
whereas BTU per litre is not.
To convert litre into kilogram, we need to multiply the litre value with the fuel’s
specific gravity. The fuel’s specific gravity can be obtained from the fuelling
sheet or chalan available with the bouser personal.
34. What are the advantages of single point fuelling? What are the precautions will
you take before re-fuelling?
A: The advantages of single point pressure fuelling of aircraft are
a. It takes less time to refuel the aircraft.
b. It reduces the possibility of contamination.
c. It reduces the possibility of static electricity igniting the fuel.
38. Aerodynamics.
a. Centre of Pressure b. Angle of Attack c. Angle of Incidence
d. Critical angle e. Stalling angle and stalling speed f.
Chord line
g. Camber and camber line h. Mean Camber Line i. Sweepback
A: Centre of Pressure: It is the point on the chord line at which the resultant of all
the pressure forces acting on the aerofoil is assumed to be concentrated, which
produces a force that has no moment about this point.
Angle of Attack: It is the angle formed by the chord line of the wing with
relative airflow.
Angle of Incidence: It is the acute angle formed by the chord line of the wing
with a line parallel to the horizontal centreline or longitudinal axis of the
airplane.
Critical angle: It is the maximum angle up to which the wing is capable of
producing lift.
Stalling Angle: It is the maximum angle beyond which, if angle of attack is
increased, the wing will no more be able to produce lift and thus will stall.
Stalling speed: It is the minimum speed below which, if the airplane is flown,
the wings will not be able to generate lift and thus will stall.
Chord line: It is an imaginary line from the leading edge to trailing edge of
wing.
Camber and camber line: Camber is the curvature of the wing. Camber line is
the line that follows the camber of the wing.
Mean Camber Line: A line drawn from wing leading edge to trailing edge such
that all points of the line are equidistant from the upper camber line and lower
camber line.
Sweepback: Sweepback angle is the angle made by a line perpendicular to
the fuselage centre line to the quarter chord of wing.
Boundary Layer: A layer of air that moves closest to the wing surface or
surface of the object under consideration.
Slip stream: The stream of air driven back by the propeller.
