Flight Control System Warnings Quiz

If one of the elevator autopilot servos failed, the other servo could still drive the movement of both controls due to the mechanical interconnect, allowing continuous operation.

The autopilot system interfaces with the flight controls through autopilot servo actuators that connect to the cockpit controls.

The stall reference speed increase function helps prevent stalls by increasing the stall reference speed in certain situations.

<p>In an autopilot trim fail condition, the pilots would need to manually trim the aircraft using the pitch trim switches/wheels.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The stall protection mode likely adjusts the stall reference speeds and may also provide stick shaker/pusher warnings or inputs to prevent exceeding the stall angle of attack.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The mechanical interconnect allows either autopilot servo motor to drive the movement of both the aileron and elevator controls. This arrangement provides continuous operation if one side becomes jammed.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The autopilot interface to the flight control system is through autopilot servo actuators that connect to the cockpit controls. The autopilot inputs are supplied through electric servo motors that connect to the flight control mechanical input sectors.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>If one of the elevator autopilot servos failed, the other servo would still be able to move the controls, allowing continuous operation. The pilot would also be able to override the autopilot system by applying sufficient force to the control wheel.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The autopilot system maintains pitch control through the use of the elevator autopilot servos, which are connected to the cockpit controls. The servo motors directly move the control wheels to control the elevator surfaces and, consequently, the aircraft's pitch.</p> Signup and view all the answers

<p>The pilot servo motor is controlled by AFCS No. 1 located in Modular Avionics Unit (MAU) No. 1, while the copilot servo motor is controlled by AFCS No. 2 in MAU No. 2. The AFCS systems provide the inputs to the autopilot servo motors to control the aircraft's flight.</p> Signup and view all the answers
