Expanded Normal Procedures

Checklist UsageTasks are executed in one of two ways:

as a sequence that uses the layout of the cockpit controlsand indicators as cues (i.e., “flow pattern”).

as a sequence of tasks organized by event rather than panellocation (e.g., After Takeoff, Gear – UP, Flaps – UP).

Placing items in a flow pattern or series provides organizationand serves as a memory aid.

A challenge-response review of the checklist follows executionof the tasks; the pilot not flying (PM) calls the item, and theappropriate pilot responds by verifying its condition (e.g., “Pro-peller Anti-Ice” [challenge] –“ON” [response]).

Two elements are inherent in the execution of normalprocedures:

use of either the cockpit layout or event cues to prompt thecorrect switch and/or control positions followed by the nor-mal checklist as a done list.

use of normal checklists as “done” lists.

Engine Starting (Battery)See Limitations chapter for starter/generator limitations.

During engine start, crew duties should be defined and orga-nized. The pilot monitors ITT, N1, and 10-second time limit forlight off; the copilot is responsible for starter time limits and allother indications or abnormalities. The copilot provides verbalconfirmation of oil pressure, ignition, and fuel pressure. Thisallows the pilot to concentrate on the two most important start-ing parameters: ITT and N1. In addition, it prevents both pilotsfrom looking at the same gauge at the same time and leavingother indicators unmonitored.

1 Torque limit applies within range of 1,000 - 1,700 propeller rpm (N2). Below 1000 propeller rpm, torque is limited to 62%.

2 Normal oil pressure is 90 to 135 PSIG at gas generator speeds above 72%. With engine torque below 62%, minimum oil pressure is 60 PSIG at normal oil temperature (60º to 70º C). Oil pressures under 90 PSIG are undesirable. Under emergency con-ditions, to complete a flight, a lower oil pressure limit of 60 PSIG is permissible at reduced power level not to exceed 62% torque. Oil pressures below 60 PSIG are unsafe and require that either the engine be shut down or a landing be made at the nearest suitable airport, using the minimum power required to sustain flight. Fluctua-tion of plus or minus 10 PSI are acceptable.

3 A minimum oil temperature of 55ºC is recommended for fuel heater operation at take-off power.

4 Oil temperature limits are –40ºC and +110ºC. However, temperatures between 99º and 110ºC are limited to a maximum of 10 minutes.

5 This value is time-limited to 5 seconds.6 High ITT at ground idle may be corrected by reducing accessory load and/or Increas-

Air Data ComputerThe air data computer (ADC) processes ram and static airpressure inputs to provide electrical outputs for various flightand avionics equipment. These outputs include:

• indicated and true airspeed

• vertical speed

• pressure and barometric corrected altitude

• altitude alerting

The ADC then provides information from the outputs to thefollowing:• pilot's altimeter • flight management system (if installed)• flight guidance system (FGS) • ATC transponders • automatic flight control system (AFCS)• enhanced ground proximity warning system (EGPWS).

Communications Equipment A typical communications equipment installation includes:

• two audio control panels

• two VHF communications transceivers

• radio telephone

Because of the wide variation of equipment found in these air-craft, please refer to the applicable manuals for more detaileddescriptions and operating information.

Static Discharging Static wicks on the aircraft structure and control surfaces mini-mize the effects of lightning strikes and static charges on avion-ics equipment and the aircraft structure. The wicks bleed off

flight management system (FMS).

AutopilotThe autopilot system provides automatic control and stabiliza-tion of the aircraft about the pitch, roll, and yaw axes. It posi-tions the aircraft elevator, ailerons, and rudder in response toautopilot flight steering commands. Selectable operatingmodes automatically maintain a desired altitude, pitch attitude,or heading, and capture and track localizer, glideslope, andVOR signals.

A typical autopilot system consists of:

• autopilot or flight control computer

• autopilot controller

• air data computer (ADC)

• mode selector

• altitude preselector/alerter

• aileron, elevator, and rudder servo-actuators.

The autopilot system receives signals from the ADC, verticalaccelerometer, vertical and directional gyros, and navigationreceivers. With this data, the autopilot drives the servo-actua-tors to maintain a desired altitude, attitude, navigation path, orairspeed.

A typical autopilot system provides:

• yaw damping

• roll rate and bank angle limiting

• automatic capture and track of VOR, ILS, and localizer

• heading, roll, airspeed, and altitude capture and hold

• heading select

• soft ride.

Electrical System

DC SystemDC electrical sources include:

• two 300 amp, 28 volt starter/generators

• an external power DC system

On aircraft prior to FL-215 and FM-10• a 24 volt, 36 ampere-hour air cooled nickel-cadmium (nicad)

battery

On aircraft after FL-215, FM-10, and FN-2• a 24 volt, 42 ampere-hour, sealed lead-acid battery

These power sources supply the triple-fed bus that distributespower to the aircraft through circuit breakers.

BatteryThe battery is used to start the engines and as a redundantpower source. Battery power is connected to the battery bus,the center bus and the triple-fed bus through a battery switchand relay. A hot battery bus allows selected equipment to bepowered without selecting the battery switch. The main batteryfeeds the battery, the center and the triple-fed buses. Selectedequipment is connected to the hot battery bus.

Battery current and voltage can be monitored with the batteryammeter and voltmeter. On aircraft with a nicad battery, a bat-tery charge current detector continuously monitors the battery-charging rate. If the charging rate exceeds 7.5 amps for sixseconds or more, the monitoring system illuminates the BAT-TERY CHARGE annunciator and triggers the flashing MAS-TER CAUTION annunciators. After a battery engine start, theBATTERY CHARGE annunciator normally illuminates after theoperating engine generator is turned on.

Page 114: BE 350 CRH

4B-6 Developed for Training Purposes King Air 350October 2001

CAE SimuFlite

Generators The generators function as starters during engine starts. Oncean engine is running, the generators provide DC power to theaircraft. L GEN and R GEN switches control the generators.The MASTER SWITCH gang bar turns off the battery and gen-erator switches simultaneously.

Reverse-current protection prevents the generators fromabsorbing power from the generator buses if the generators arenot operating, or if generator voltage is less than bus voltage.

Voltage Regulation Each generator is equipped with a generator control panel. Thegenerator control panels are self-contained units, which providethe following:

• line-contactor relay control

• overvoltage protection

• overexcitation protection

• cross-start current limiting

• reverse current protection

• starter/generator priority

• generator load paralleling.

The generator control panel monitors the output voltage andcontrols the shunt field excitation to maintain a constant voltageof 28.25V DC under varying operating conditions. The line-con-tactor relays connect each generator to its corresponding busand, if any fault is detected, the relay will disconnect the gener-ator from the bus. A paralleling circuit provides generator loadequalization. If an overvoltage occurs, the line contactor willopen and the GEN RESET will have to be selected.

Page 115: BE 350 CRH

King Air 350 Developed for Training Purposes 4B-7October 2001

Electrical System

External Power An appropriately rated ground power unit (GPU) can supply theaircraft electrical system through an external power receptacleon the right wing. The GPU should be capable of both deliver-ing 1,000 amps starting and providing a continuous load of300A at 28 to 28.4V DC. Connecting a GPU illuminates theEXT PWR annunciator. The annunciator will remain in steadyillumination while the voltage remains between 24 and 32 volts.Otherwise it will flash approximately 4 times per second.

DC Power Distribution Five primary buses distribute power to all of the sub-buses fromthe three main power sources. The primary buses consist of a"hot" battery bus, center bus, triple-fed bus, and the left andright generator buses. This system is termed a triple-fed bussystem, with each bus receiving power from the three DCpower sources. This design minimizes the risk of a completepower loss should a power source become isolated.

The battery directly powers the hot battery bus. Selecting theBAT BUS switch to NORM will energize the battery bus. Withthe BAT BUS switch in EMER OFF, the battery is completelyisolated from the electrical system.

Current sensors, limiters, diodes and relays also individuallyprotect the five primary buses. The triple-fed bus is protectedby a diode and a 60-ampere current limiter wired between itand each feeder bus. This configuration provides overcurrentprotection and prevents current flow away from the triple-fedbus. Load-shedding is accomplished by isolating a faulty busfrom those that are still functional, thereby preventing a failureof the entire electrical system.

AC Power The AC electrical system is a 115V AC and 26V AC, singlephase, 400 Hz system. It operates on 28V DC and provides ACpower to certain avionics and electrical equipment. The ACsystem is designated as No. 1 and No. 2. The No. 1 inverter ispowered from the center bus and the No. 2 inverter is poweredfrom the right generator bus. Selecting the inverter switch toON will supply power to the corresponding AC bus; selectingBUS TRANSFER will transfer the load to the other inverter, pro-viding the inverter is selected ON.

Fire Protection

Fire Protection SystemsFire protection systems include:

• engine fire detection

• engine fire extinguishing

• testing (fire detection and extinguishing)

• bleed air warning.

Engine Fire Detection Engine fire detection consists of temperature sensing cables,two red warning annunciators (ENG FIRE), and two testswitches. When an engine fire occurs, the ENG FIRE light andthe MASTER WARNING annunciator on the glareshield panelilluminate.

Each engine's temperature sensing element consists of asealed stainless steel tube. Within this tube is an inert gas andan inner core with an active gas. The sensing element con-nects to a responder that contains an alarm switch for detectionand an integrity switch for testing.

Exposing a sensing element to temperatures of 360°F (182°C)along its entire length or 800°F (426°C) along a one-foot sec-tion expands the element's core gases. This closes theresponder alarm switch to illuminate the respective ENG FIRElight and trigger the MASTER WARNING flashing lights. Oncethe sensing element cools below its trigger temperature, theENG FIRE light extinguishes. The MASTER WARNING lights,however, do not extinguish until they are reset.

Page 124: BE 350 CRH

4C-6 Developed for Training Purposes King Air 350October 2001

CAE SimuFlite

Engine Fire Extinguishing The engine fire extinguishing system consists of a fire extin-guisher bottle in each main wheel well. Spray nozzles con-nected to each bottle direct fire extinguishing agent to theengine accessory section and power sections. Each bottle con-tains approximately 2.5 Ib of Bromotrifluoromethane (CBrF3)pressurized with dry nitrogen to 450-475 PSI at 72°F (pressur-ization is directly proportional to OAT).

The fire detection system illuminates the ENG FIRE annuncia-tor. Pressing the switch will activate the fire extinguishing sys-tem and close the fuel firewall shutoff valve. Once the systemhas been armed, the EXTINGUISHER PUSH annunciator willcome on. Pressing that light supplies DC power to the extin-guisher bottle's explosive squib. The squib's detonation dis-lodges a sealing disc so that bottle contents flow to the spraynozzles. Once the squib integrity has been compromised, therespective DISCHARGE annunciator illuminates.

Testing (Fire Detection and Extinguishing)The testing system consists of two independent switcheslabelled “ENG FIRE TEST/LEFT/RIGHT” with DET, OFF andEXT positions. When either switch is selected to DET, the cor-responding ENG FIRE and MASTER WARNING lights will illu-minate. Selecting either switch to EXT will illuminate thecorresponding EXTINGUISHER PUSH and DISCHARGEannunciator.

Engine Bleed Air WarningEVA tubing that parallels the bleed air lines from the enginefirewalls into the cabin provides a warning system for a bleedair leak. These parallel tubing lines are pressurized with instru-ment bleed air.

If a bleed air line ruptures, excessive heat melts the adjacentEVA tubing to release pressure. When pressure is reduced, aswitch in the line under the copilot floor closes to illuminate therespective L/R BLEED FAIL annunciator.

Flight Controls

Flight ControlsPrimary flight controls include the ailerons, elevators, and rud-der. These control the aircraft through the pitch, roll, and yawaxes. Each of the primary flight controls has a mechanicallyoperated trim system; the elevator trim system also has anelectrically operated trim system. The flap system is the onlysecondary flight control system.

Related flight systems include the stall warning, rudder boost,and yaw damper systems.

Primary Flight Controls Ailerons on the outboard trailing edge of each wing provide rollcontrol mechanically through the control wheel or electricallythrough the autopilot servo. Rotating the control wheel left orright from neutral mechanically actuates the ailerons through asystem of cables and bellcranks. Mechanical stops on the aile-rons limit total movement to approximately 24 degrees up and16 degrees down from neutral. The autopilot also actuates theailerons through a servo connected to the aileron control circuitcables.

A trim tab on the left aileron provides lateral trim capability.Rotating the AILERON TAB knob left or right from the neutral or"0" position mechanically drives the trim tab up or down respec-tively. Rotating the aileron trim knob to the left drives the tabdown for a left-wing-down movement; rotating it right producesthe opposite effect.

The elevators on the trailing edge of the T-tail horizontal stabi-lizer provide pitch control. Pushing the control column fore andaft from neutral mechanically deflects the elevators down andup through cables and bellcranks. Stops limit total elevatormovement to approximately 20 degrees up and 14 degreesdown from neutral. An autopilot servo connected to the controlcables also operates the elevators.

Page 130: BE 350 CRH

4D-4 Developed for Training Purposes King Air 350October 2001

CAE SimuFlite

A mechanically or electrically operated pitch trim system drivesthe elevator trim tabs to reduce elevator control forces and trimthe aircraft in the longitudinal axis. Rotating the ELEVATORTAB wheel forward or aft from neutral mechanically drives thetrim tab actuators. The jack-screw type actuators then extendor retract to move the elevator trim tabs in the necessary direc-tion to pitch the nose up or down. With the ELEV TRIM switchin the ON position, the electric pitch trim system is activated.Actuating a set of TRIM switches toward the NOSE UP orNOSE DN position powers the electric trim tab actuator. Theactuator's clutch then engages to connect the motor to thecable drum. The motor then operates the trim tab actuatorsthrough cables.

A bi-Ievel, pushbutton, momentary-on trim disconnect switch isinboard of the dual-element thumb switch on the outboard gripof each control wheel. If an autopilot is installed, pressing theswitch to the first level disconnects the autopilot and yawdamper system. Pressing the switch to the second level addi-tionally disconnects the electric elevator-trim system. If noautopilot is installed, pressing the switch to the first level has noeffect. The second level disconnects the elevator-trim system.

The rudder provides directional control of the aircraft about thevertical axis. A direct connect cable system from both sets ofrudder pedals to the tail section drives the rudder. Deflecting aset of rudder pedals from neutral mechanically deflects the rud-der to produce a yaw movement. Total rudder movement isapproximately 25 degrees left or right from neutral.

Rotating the RUDDER TAB wheel left or right from neutralmechanically moves the rudder trim tab to reduce rudder pedalcontrol forces. Total tab deflection is approximately 15 degreesleft or right from neutral.

Page 131: BE 350 CRH

King Air 350 Developed for Training Purposes 4D-5October 2001

Flight Controls

Rudder Boost and Yaw Damper A rudder boost system positions the rudder to compensate forasymmetric engine power differences. If the engine torquedrops below the preset value, the electric servo is activated anddeflects the rudder proportionally to the torque loss. The rudderboost system is disabled if the RUDDER BOOST switch isselected to OFF and is momentarily interrupted when the DISCTRIM/AP/YD switch is pressed to the first level.The yaw damper system is controlled through the autopilot;pressing the YAW ENG or the AP ENG a second time willengage the yaw damper system.

Flaps Each wing contains two flaps on the trailing edge inboard of theailerons. With flaps extended, stall speed decreases approxi-mately 7 to 9 knots.

Selection of a flap position on the FLAP handle controls travel ofthe flaps by powering the flap motor through limit switches and aflap motor relay. The flap motor drives a gearbox connected tofour flexible driveshafts that, in turn, connect to a jackscrew actu-ator at each flap. To prevent overtravel, the flap motor has adynamic braking system with two sets of motor windings. A safety mechanism interrupts power if 3 to 6 degrees split flapsituation occurs. The landing gear warning system provides an aural and visualwarning of improper flight configurations. With the FLAP handlein UP, APPROACH, or DOWN, retarding the power leversbelow about 84-86% N1 RPM setting with the landing gear notdown, and locked, sounds the gear warning horn and illumi-nates the landing gear lever in-transit light. The landing gearwarning horn may be silenced by the buttons located eithernext to the landing gear lever and/or on the left throttle assem-bly and while the flaps are selected in the UP or APPROACHposition. Advancing the power levers or extending the landinggear cancels the warning completely. With flaps down, the horncannot be silenced by advancing the power levers or by press-ing the horn silence button.

4D-6 Developed for Training Purposes King Air 350October 2001

CAE SimuFlite

Stall Warning System The stall warning system provides an audible warning to notifythe crew of an impending stall.

With weight-off-wheels, an electrically heated lift transducermeasures the aircraft's angle-of-attack (AOA). The system's liftcomputer then processes the transducer's inputs and modifiesit based on flap setting.

If a stall is imminent, the lift transducer triggers and the warninghorn sounds.

With weight-on-wheels, placing the STALL WARNING TESTswitch in the test position magnetically deflects the lift trans-ducer to the pre-stall position. If the system is working normally,the stall warning horn sounds.

NOTE: Stall Warning system may be unreliable during oper-ations in icing conditions with accumulation of ice on air-frame surfaces.

Fuel System

FuelThe airframe fuel system includes fuel storage, venting, indicat-ing, and distribution. Refer to the Powerplant chapter for enginefuel and fuel control systems. Refueling is covered in theServicing chapter.

StorageWing and auxiliary fuel tanks hold a usable total of 539 US gal-lons. Each wing tank consists of five interconnected tanks anda nacelle tank behind the engine. These tanks are either blad-der or integral type. Fuel from the wing tank gravity feeds intothe nacelle tank.

From the nacelle tank, an engine-driven fuel boost pump sup-plies fuel under pressure to the engine through a firewall fuelshutoff valve. Placing a firewall shutoff valve switch in theCLOSED position electrically drives the valve closed.

The auxiliary fuel tank consists of a center section tank in eachwing root. Because these tanks are lower than the rest of thefuel tanks, transfer jet pumps are used to pump fuel to thenacelle tank.

Drain valves at tank low points permit fuel sampling and waterremoval. These drains are forward of the wheel well (nacelletank), outboard of the nacelle (leading edge tank), halfway outon the wing (integral tank), and on the middle of the wing root(auxiliary tank). A drain valve permits removal of contaminantsfrom the gravity feed line that connects the wing and nacelletanks.

IndicatingA capacitance-type fuel indicating system provides accuratemeasurement of fuel quantity regardless of fuel temperatureand type.

As fuel level rises and falls in a fuel tank, probe capacitanceincreases and decreases proportionately. The fuel indicatingsystem then produces an output current to drive the fuel gages.Normally, the fuel gages display main tank quantity in pounds.Placing the fuel selector switch in AUXILIARY displays auxiliaryfuel tank quantity.

VentingThe wing and auxiliary fuel tanks vent to atmosphere through apair of vents on the wing underside near the engine nacelle.Each pair of vents has an unheated recessed vent and aheated ram air vent. If one vent clogs, the other continues toprovide tank venting.

The outer wing tanks vent to each other and then to atmo-sphere through a vent float valve near the wing tip and a pair ofvents on the lower wing surface. The float valve connects to avent line running the length of the outboard wing section. Thevent line then connects to an unheated recessed vent througha check valve and to a heated ram air vent through a flamearrestor.

An air inlet and two suction relief valves in the wing tip preventfuel siphoning through the venting system. One of the pressurerelief valves connects to the air inlet while the other one con-nects the float valve to a siphon break line.

The nacelle tank also has a vent float valve and two suctionrelief valves. From the float valve, a vent line connects this tankto the two wing vents.

Fuel System

When the auxiliary fuel tank is full, its float-operated checkvalve closes to prevent fuel loss through the venting system.The tank then vents to atmosphere through the vent line con-nected to the integral wing tank. As the fuel level in this tankdrops, the check valve opens and the tank vents directlythrough the two wing vents.

Table 4E-A; Usable Fuel Capacity

DistributionFuel either gravity flows from the wing tank or is pumped fromthe auxiliary tank to the nacelle tank. Each nacelle tank sup-plies fuel to its engine through the firewall fuel shutoff valve.

During engine operation, the engine's fuel boost pump drawsfuel from the nacelle tank and provides it under pressure to theengine. If this pump fails, an electrically driven standby fuelboost pump in the nacelle tank provides pressurized fuel. Thestandby boost pump also moves fuel during crossfeed.

With the respective STANDBY PUMP switch on, 28V DC fromthe Triple-fed Bus powers the standby boost pump.

A jet transfer pump transfers fuel from the auxiliary tank to thenacelle tank. With the engine-driven or standby fuel pumpsoperating, motive flow fuel operates the transfer pump. Withthe AUX TRANSFER switch placed in the AUTO position, con-trol of the motive flow valve is maintained by the AuxiliaryTransfer Control Module. The control module will prevent the

motive flow valve from opening if any or all of the following con-ditions are detected: selection of crossfeed, ignition on, no fuelpressure, or auxiliary tank empty.

With the motive flow valve open, fuel is directed from theengine-driven or standby pump into the jet transfer pumplocated in the auxiliary tank. The transfer pump moves fuelfrom the auxiliary tank to its nacelle tank. Excess fuel deliveredby the transfer pump flows back into the auxiliary tank througha float valve and overflow line at the top of the nacelle tank.

A pressure switch downstream from the motive flow valve mon-itors fuel pressure in the motive flow fuel supply line. If a boostpump fails, ignition is activated, crossfeed is selected, ormotive fuel pressure falls below 6 PSI with fuel remaining in theauxiliary tank, the motive flow pressure switch illuminates theNO TRANSFER annunciator. Placing the AUX TRANSFERswitch in OVERRIDE bypasses the control circuitry to open themotive flow valve.

Once fuel is consumed from the auxiliary tank, the tank floatswitch provides an empty signal to the Auxiliary Transfer Con-trol Module. After a short time delay to allow for fuel sloshing,the module removes power from the normally closed motiveflow valve, closing it.

Once the auxiliary tank empties, the tank's float switch providesan empty signal to the control circuitry. After a 30 to 50 seconddelay, the motive flow valve closes.

A single-valve crossfeed system supplies fuel from an inopera-tive engine's tanks to the opposite engine. Its use is restrictedto single engine operation. With an inoperative right engine, forexample, place the CROSSFEED FLOW switch to the left. Thisaction opens the crossfeed valve, energizes the right engine'selectric boost pump, and closes the left engine's motive flowvalve. A CROSSFEED annunciator provides indication that thecrossfeed valve has reached an OPEN position. Fuel underpressure then moves from the right side to the left side.

Landing Gear and BrakesThe aircraft has an electro-hydraulic, tricycle-type landing gear.The nose and main gear have conventional air/oil struts toabsorb taxi and landing shocks. A position indicating systemprovides indication of safe and unsafe landing gearconfiguration.

The nose is a single wheel assembly while the main gear is atwo-wheel assembly with dual hydraulic brakes.

Hydraulic Landing Gear The King Air 350 aircraft has a electro-hydraulic landing gearsystem with an electric-driven hydraulic pump (powerpack),selector valve, hydraulic gear actuators, accumulator, andrelated plumbing and valves.

Placing the landing gear lever to DN actuates the power packdown solenoid. Hydraulic fluid is pumped to the extend side ofthe actuators. As the actuator piston extends the landing gear,fluid on the other side of the actuators exits through the retractport and flows back to the power pack through retract plumb-ing. Fluid from the pump flows through the selector valve,opens a pressure check valve, and then allows the return fluidto flow into the primary reservoir.

When the actuator piston positions to fully extend the nosegear, an internal actuator downlock switch interrupts power tothe nose gear portion of the power pack. Additionally, this inter-nal locking mechanism holds the nose gear drag brace in anover-center condition.

The main gear is held in the extended position by a mechanicalover-center lock hook and a lock-pin assembly on the dragbrace. The downlock switches, along with the right nose gearsquat switch, interrupt power to the power pack main powerrelay.

Page 151: BE 350 CRH

King Air 350 Developed for Training Purposes 4F-5October 2001

Landing Gear and Brakes

Moving the landing gear handle to UP provides hydraulic fluidunder pressure to the retract side of the gear actuators. As theactuator pistons move to retract the gear, the fluid in the otherside of the actuators exits through the extend port and flowsback to the power pack through the extend plumbing.

When the gear reaches the fully retracted position, hydraulicsystem pressure holds the gear in the up position. Whenhydraulic pressure reaches approximately 2,775 PSI, theuplock pressure switch opens the landing gear relay to interruptcurrent to the pump motor. The same pressure switch actuatesthe pump that increases hydraulic pressure if it drops below2,475 PSI. The normal landing gear cycle takes approximately7 seconds. Should the pump motor run longer than 14 sec-onds, power is removed from the main power relay, and thelanding gear control circuit breaker is shorted.

Up and down position switches on the nose and main landinggear illuminate the landing gear handle’s red intransit light andthe three green down-and-locked lights. The intransit light illu-minates when either landing gear up and down position switchis de-actuated (i.e., with a landing gear transitioning betweenpositions).

The red intransit light illuminates whenever:

• the landing gear handle is in the up position with weight-on-wheels.

• any landing gear is between the fully retracted and down-and-Iocked position (i.e., intransit).

• landing gear is not down-and-Iocked with a power lever set below 84% to 86% N1.

• landing gear is up and flaps are extended past the approach position. Warning horn can be silenced by extending landing gear or raising the flaps to the UP or APPR position.

If the normal landing gear system fails, manually extend with ahand-operated hydraulic pump. Pull the LANDING GEARRELAY CB on the pilot inboard subpanel to interrupt electricalpower and then place the landing gear handle in the DOWNposition. Remove the LANDING GEAR ALTERNATE EXTEN-SION hand pump handle from the securing clip and pump upand down until three green indicator lights illuminate. The handpump supplies fluid to the extend side of the gear actuators.Refer to the AFM Abnormal Procedures for detailed instructionabout landing gear manual extension.

If the landing gear system hydraulic reservoir level drops to acritical level for more than four seconds, an optical sensor illu-minates the yellow HYD FLUID LOW annunciator. When theannunciator illuminates, sufficient hydraulic fluid remains tomanually extend the landing gear.

BrakesEach main gear wheel carries a multiple disc brake assembly.Each assembly consists of two rotating discs keyed to thewheel, a piston housing, carrier and lining (stationary disc), andtorque plate. The stationary disc and torque plate provide a fric-tion surface for the rotating discs.

Depressing either set of brake pedals compresses the mastercylinders' piston rod. Piston rod movement generates hydraulicpressure that flows through rigid and flexible lines to the brakeassembly. The brake assembly pistons then extend to force thelinings and discs together; braking occurs. Releasing brakepressure allows the brake assembly pistons to retract, the lin-ings to move away from the discs, and release of the brakes.

With either the pilot or copilot brake pedals depressed andbrake pressure applied, pulling the PARKING BRAKE handleout closes left and right brake valve assemblies. Trapped fluidin the brake lines then maintains pressure against the multi-disc wheel brake assemblies. The parking brake can bereleased by depressing with the pilot or copilot brake pedalsand then releasing the PARKING BRAKE handle.
