Study Notes
Backup System Purpose
- Backup systems are designed to meet safety requirements during critical situations in MMEL dispatch.
- These systems aim to handle temporary or complete power loss.
- They account for situations like losing 5 fly-by-wire computers, both elevators, or full aileron and spoiler failure.
Backup System Reliability
- The backup system is statistically improbable to be triggered, due to the fly-by-wire design.
- This is because alternative operational modes are readily available in emergencies, such as electrical failures or engine flameouts.

Description
This quiz explores the purpose and reliability of backup systems in aviation, particularly during critical situations like power loss. Understand how these systems ensure safety by managing multiple failures within the aircraft's control systems. Delve into the statistical improbability of these systems being triggered and the alternative modes available in emergencies.
