What landing gear systems are affected if a WOW message appears prior to touchdown?

The parking brake may be inoperative.

The antiskid system may not operate normally.

The emergency brake system may be inoperative.

The power brakes may be inoperative.

Correct! Wrong!

Landing gear downlocks are disengaged:

By removing the external downlock pins.

When hydraulic pressure is applied to the retract side of the main gear actuators and the nose gear downlock release actuator.

By mechanical linkage as the gear begins to retract.

By action of the gear squat switches.

Correct! Wrong!

On the ground, the LANDING GEAR handle is prevented from movement to the GEAR UP position by:

Hydraulic pressure.

A spring-loaded locking solenoid.

Mechanical detents.

A manually applied handle locking device.

Correct! Wrong!

When using the emergency brake:

The handle should be pumped.

Differential braking is not available.

Nosewheel steering is inoperative.

Antiskid protection is provided.

Correct! Wrong!

At extension, if the nose gear does not lock in the down position, the gear panel indications are:

Red light illuminated, green LH and RH lights illuminated.

All four lights extinguished.

Red light illuminated and all three green lights extinguished.

Correct! Wrong!

Each inboard-retracting main gear uses two hydraulic actuators (one for uplock release and one for gear actuation). Three more hydraulic actuators perform these duties for the forward-retracting nose gear.

False.

True.

Correct! Wrong!

Normally, the landing gear is hydraulically actuated, but if the normal gear actuation system fails, the gear can be mechanically and electrically released and extended.

True.

False.

Correct! Wrong!

The gear can be mechanically and pneumatically (not electrically) released and extended.

Before movement of the aircraft on the ground:
