B767 Flight Controls Exam 2025

Which hydraulic systems control horizontal stabilizer trim? - Correct Answer-Left and Center What are the 3 ways to move the Horizontal Stab Trim? - Correct Answer-1. Electric Trim - control wheel switches 2. Alternate Trim - switches to the left of the thrust levers 3. Automatic Trim - the autopilot Which method of Horizontal Stab Trim uses only 1 motor/half rate of trim? - Correct Answer-Automatic Trim Which method of trim disengages a single autopilot if actuated? - Correct Answer-Electric Trim Which Horizontal Stab Trim mechanisms use 2 motors/full rate to trim? - Correct Answer-Electric and Alternate Trim Is Electric Trim enabled with multiple autopilots engaged? - Correct Answer-No Does the Alternate Trim disengage the autopilot if used during autopilot operations? - Correct Answer-No, the autopilot will retrim after the Alternate Trim Switches are released Which Trim source cancels conflicting trim commands? - Correct Answer-Alternate Trim Which hydraulic system actuates the Left Autopilot? - Correct Answer-Left Hydraulic System Which hydraulic system actuates the Center Autopilot? - Correct Answer-Left OR Center Hydraulic System Which hydraulic system actuates the Right Autopilot? - Correct Answer-Center Hydraulic System What does the UNSCHED STAB TRIM Discrete Light mean if illuminated? - Correct Answer-trim is moving when not commanded What does PES stand for? - Correct Answer-Pitch Enhancement System Which Hydraulic System powers the PES motor? - Correct Answer-Right Hydraulic System At what rate does the PES trim? - Correct Answer-1/4 the full trim rate Can the Autopilot be engaged if the PES is performing trim functions? - Correct Answer-No How many spoilers are on the aircraft? - Correct Answer-12 How many ailerons are on the aircraft? - Correct Answer-4 How many spoilers function in flight? - Correct Answer-10 What is the function of the outboard aileron lockout feature? - Correct Answer-It locks out the outboard ailerons when in the high speed regime to prevent overcontrolling and possible structural damage or failure. When do the inboard ailerons begin to droop? - Correct Answer-When Flaps are selected to 5, this becomes their new neutral position When do the inboard ailerons droop to half of their full droop position? - Correct Answer-When the Flaps are commanded to a landing position (25 or 30) What are the 5 criteria for the Speed Brakes to automatically deploy? - Correct Answer-1. If the handle is in the ARMED position 2. Main Gear air/ground logic says the aircraft is on the ground 3. Wheel spin up 4. Thrust Levers brought to Idle 5. IF the handle isn't in the ARMED position, EITHER Thrust Lever in Reverse Idle triggers automatic deployment What does the AUTO SPDBRK Discrete Light indicate? - Correct Answer-A fault in the auto speedbrake functioning When does the SPEED BRAKES Light illuminate? - Correct Answer-1. When speedbrakes are deployed while Flaps are beyond 20 or 2. When they are used below 800 feet AGL The Yaw Damper INOP Lights illuminate under what condition? - Correct Answer-1. Loss of respective hydraulic system 2. Loss of electrical power 3. Loss of IRS alignment (only 1 IRU is needed to control both yaw dampers) What is the purpose of the Rudder Ratio Changer? - Correct Answer-Coordinates rudder deflection based on aircraft speed What does the RUDDER RATIO Discrete Light signal? - Correct Answer-The component has failed What happens when the RUDDER RATIO Discrete Light illuminates? - Correct Answer-The Left Hydraulic System actuator is depowered If the Left Hydraulic System is still powered and the RUDDER RATIO Discrete Light is illuminated, what other limitations must we comply with? - Correct Answer-1. Avoid large or abrupt rudder inputs above 160 kts 2. Crosswind limit is 15 kts 3. Autolands are NOT permitted Which hydraulic system powers the Flaps? - Correct Answer-Center Hydraulic System What protections are available with Normal Flap operation? - Correct Answer-Flap asymmetry and Load Relief What positions does the Flap Load Relief function move the flaps to? - Correct
