Week 2 Q/A Airframe

8299 The maximum time a 100 hour inspection may be inspected

10 Hours

8339 What type of valve is used in the brake actuating line to isolate the emergency brake system from the normal power brake control valve system?

A shuttle valve

8302 For an individual (not a repair station) to conduct a complete 100hr inspection on an aircraft and approve it for return to service requires a mechanic certificate with

A&P ratings

8309 A pilot reports the right brake on an aircraft is spongy when the brake pedal is depressed in a normal manner. The probable cause is

Air in the brake hydraulic system

(8295)Which statement is correct regarding an aircraft that is found to be unairworthy after an annual inspection, due to an item requiring a major repair?

An appropiate rated mechanic may accomplish the repair, and an IA may approve the aircraft for return to service

8300 Which statement is correct when an aircraft has not been approved for return to service after an annual inspectionbecause of several items requiring minor repair?

An appropriately rated mechanic may repair the defects, but an IA must approve the aircraft for return to service

8323 on an air valve core stem, what indicates high pressure type

An embossed letter H

(8310)-Aside from an external leak in the line, what will cause parking brakes to continually bleed off pressure?

An internal leak in the master cylinder

(8315)-The braking action of a Cleveland disk brake is accomplished by compressing a rotating brake disk between two opposite brake linings. How is equal pressure on both sides of the rotating disk assured?

By allowing the brake lining to automatically equalize as pressure is applied to the rotor

8355 How can it be determined taht all air has been purged from a master cylinder brake system?

By noting whether the brake is firm or spongy

8375 Nose gear centering cams are used in many retractable landing gear systems. The primary purpose of the centering device is to

Center the nosewheel before it enters the wheel well

(8340)-When servicing an air/oil shock strut with MIL-5606 the strut should be

Collapsed and fluid added at the filler opening

(8293) Which statement about ADs is true?

Compliance with an applicable AD is mandatory and must be recorded in the maintenance records

(8316)-If it is determined that spongy brake action is not caused by air in the brake system, what is the next most likely cause?

Deteriorated flexible hoses

8338 Which statement is true with respect to an aircraft equipped with hydraulically operated multiple disc type brake assemblies?

Do not set parking brake when brakes are hot

(8297) An aircraft may be flown beyond the 100 hour inspection requirement to reach a place where the inspection can be accomplished, provided it

Does not exceed 10 flight hours

(8320)-When bleeding aircraft brakes, one of the indications that the air has been purged from the system is

Firm brake pedals

8354 What should be checked when a shock strut bottoms during a landing?

Fluid level

8356 the left brake is dragging excessively on an airplane on which no recent brake service work has been performed. The most probable cause is

Foreign particles stuck in the master cylinder

(8341)-Instructions concerning the type of fluid and amount of air pressure to be put in a shock strut are found?

In the aircraft manufacturer's service manual

(8371)-A pilot reports that the brake pedals have excessive travel. A probable cause is

Lack of fluid in the brake system

(8345)-What is the purpose of a compensating port or valve in a brake master cylinder of an independent brake system?

Permits the fluid to flow toward or away from the reservior as temperature changes

(8348)-Extension of an oleo shock strut is measured to determine the?

Proper operating position of the strut

8370 On most aircraft, the oil level of an air and oil shock strut is checked by

Releasing the air and seeing that the oil is to the level of the filler plug

(8347)-What is the function of a cam incorporated in a nose gear shock strut?

Straightens the nosewheel

(8350)-If a shock strut bottoms after it has been properly serviced, the?

Strut should be removed, disassembled, and inspected

(8333)-When an air/oil type of landing gear shock strut is used, the initial shock of landing is cushioned by?

The fluid being forced through a metered opening

8334 Internal leakage in a brake master cylinder unit can cause

The pedal to slowly creep down while pedal pressure is applied

(8332)-What is one effect a restricted compensator port of a master cylinder will have on a brake system?

The restriction will cause a slow release of the brakes

8311 Why do most aircraft tire manufacturerrs recommend that the tubes in newly installed tires be first inflated, fully deflated, and then reinflated to the correct tire pressure?

To allow the tube to position itself correctly inside the tire

(8344)-If the extended longitudinal axis of the main landing gear wheel assemblies intersects aft of the aircraft, the wheels can be termed as having

Toe out

8352 If an airplane equipped with master cylinders and single disc brakes has excessive brake pedal travel, but the brakes are hard and effective, the probable cause is

Worn brake linings

8336 - The purpose of a sequence valve in a hydraulic retractable landing gear system is to

ensure operation of the landing gear and gear doors in the proper order

8368 When an empty shock strut is filled with fluid, care should be taken to extend and compress the strut completely atleast two times to

ensure proper packing ring seating and removal of air bubbles

8346 If an aircraft shock strut (air/oil type) bottoms upon initial landing contact, but functions correctly during taxi, the most probable cause is

low fluid

8329 What is the purpose of the torque links attached to the cylinder and piston of a landing gear oleo strut?

maintaining correct wheel allignment

8312 The metering pins in oleo shock struts serve to

retard the flow of oil as the struts are compressed

8337 The pressure source for power brakes is

the main hydraulic system

8301. An aircraft that is due an annual inspection may be flown

if a special permit has been issued for the aircraft

8335 A sleeve, spacer, or bumper ring is incorperated in a landing gear oleo shock strut to

limit the extension stroke

8308 To prevent a very rapid extension of an oleo shock strut after initial compression resulting from landing impact

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

8307 In brake service work, the term bleeding brakes is a process of

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