Airframe landing gear 8305-8343

The breaking action of a Cleveland disc brake is accomplished by compressing a rotating brake disc between two opposite brake linings how is equal pressure on both sides of the rotating disk assured

By allowing the caliper to float to automatically equalize pressure is applied to the rotor

When servicing an air oil shock strut with ML 5606 the strut should be

Collapsed and fluid added at the top of the filler opening

The purpose of a relief valve in a brake system is to

Compensate for thermal expansion

It is determined that spongy break action is not caused by air in the brake system what is the next most likely case

Deteriorating flexible hoses

Which statement is true with respect to an aircraft equipped with hydraulically operated multi disc type brake assemblies

Do not set parking brake when brakes are hot

Instructions concerning the type of fluid and amount of air pressure to be put in a shock strut are found

In the aircraft manufacturer service manual

An automatic dampening action occurs at the steering dampener if any reason the flow high-pressure fluid is removed from the

Inlet of the steering dampener

The repair for an out of tolerance Toe in condition of Main landing gear wheels determined not to be the result of bent or twisted components consist of

Inserting removing or changing the location of the washers or spacers at the center pivotal point of the scissor torque links

A sleeve spacer or bump ring is incorporated in the landing gear olio straight to

Limit the extension stroke

What is the purpose of the torque links attached to the cylinder and piston of a landing gear Oleo strut

Maintain correct wheel alignment

The primary purpose for balancing aircraft wheel assembly is two

Prevent heavy spots and reduce vibration

The removal installation and repair of landing gear tires by the holder of a private pilot certificate on an aircraft owned or operated is considered to be

Preventative maintenance

Debooster valves are used in brake system primarily to

Reduce the pressure and release the brakes rapidly

The metering pins in the olio shocks struts serve to

Retard the flow of oil as a stretcher compressed

What type of valve is used in the break actuating line to isolate the emergency brake system for the normal power brake control system

Shut off valve

A stripe or Mark applied to a wheel rim and extending into the sidewall of a tube tire is a

Slippage Mark

A brake debooster valve is installed in systems where the high pressure of a hydraulic system 3000 psi is used to operate brakes

That are designated to work with lower pressure

What action should be taken whenever maintenance is performed that will affect the landing gear system performance

The aircraft should be placed on jacks and a retraction test should be performed

What would be the effect if the piston return spring broke in a brake master cylinder

The brakes would drag

When an air oil type of landing gear shock strut is used the initial shock of landing is cushion by

The fluid being forced through a metered opening

The pressure source for power brakes is

The main hydraulic system

Internal leakage in a brake master cylinder unit can cause

The pedal to slowly creep down while pedal pressure is applied

What is one effect of a restricted compensator port of a master cylinder will have on a break system

The restriction will cause slow release of the brakes

Why do most aircraft tire manufacturers recommend that the tubes in newly installed tires be first be inflated then fully deflated and then re-inflated to correct pressure

To allow the tube to position itself correctly inside the tire

When working with high pressure high performance tires why is it recommended to deflate the tires on removing wheels from the axle

To ensure safety in case of a defective wheel or broken tire bolts

Aircraft brakes require a large volume of fluid to operate the brakes generally

Use power brake control valves

Overinflated aircraft tires made cause damage to the

Wheel flange

in brake service work the term bleeding brakes is the process of

Withdrawing fluid from the system for the purpose of removing air that has entered the system

To prevent a very rapid extension of the polio shock straight after initial compression resulting from landing impact

various types of valves or orifice are used which restrict the reverse fluid flow

A pilot reports the right break on aircraft is spongy when the right brake pedal is depressed in a normal manner the probable cause is

Air and the brake hydraulic system

Aside from external leak in the line what will cause parking brakes to continually bleed off pressure

An internal leak in the master cylinder

Aircraft tire pressure should be checked

At least once a week or more often

On an air valve core system what indicates high-pressure type

Embossed letter H

The purpose of a sequence valve in a hydraulic retractable landing gear is two

Ensure operation of the landing gear and gear doors is in proper order

Many brake types can be adapted to operate mechanically or hydraulically which type is not adaptable to mechanical operation

Expander tube type

On all aircraft equipped with retractable landing gear some means must be provided to

Extend the landing gear if the normal operating mechanism fails

When bleeding aircraft brakes one of the indications that air has been purged from the system is

Firm brake pedals

Exposure two and or storage near which of the following is considered harmful to aircraft tires

Fuel oil ozone electrical equipment hydraulic fluid and solvents

Power boost brake systems are used on aircraft that have

Highlanding speeds
