How well do you know the hydraulic systems of an airplane?

• The airplane has three hydraulic systems: A, B, and standby.
• Standby system is used if system A and/or B pressure is lost.
• Each hydraulic system has a fluid reservoir located in the main wheel well area.
• System A and B reservoirs are pressurized by bleed air.
• Both A and B hydraulic systems have an engine-driven pump and an AC electric motor-driven pump.
• The system A engine-driven pump is powered by the No.1 engine and the system B engine-driven pump is powered by the No.2 engine.
• An engine-driven hydraulic pump supplies approximately 6 times the fluid volume of the related electric motor-driven hydraulic pump.
• The ENG 1 or ENG 2 pump ON/OFF switch controls the engine-driven pump output pressure.
• The ELEC 2 or ELEC 1 pump ON/OFF switch controls the related electric motor-driven pump.
• If an overheat is detected in either system, the related OVERHEAT light illuminates.
