Section 4. Landing Gear and Brakes
a. The emergency landing gear handle releases the actuator brakes allowing
the landing gear to fall to the extended position via gravity.
b. A high-pressure nitrogen charge will force the landing gear into the extended
position.
c. Emergency landing gear extension is automated through the ACS.
8. The maximum gear extension (Vlo) speed is:
a. 200 KEAS
b. 250 KEAS
c. 275 KEAS
d. 185 KEAS
9. The maximum landing gear extended (Vle) speed is:
a. 185 KEAS
b. 200 KEAS
c. 275 KEAS
d. 250 KEAS
10. What must a pilot/operator do in the event of a hard landing indication?
a. Visually inspect the tires on the next preflight.
b. Have a maintenance inspection completed prior to the next takeoff.
c. Check the strut compression on the subsequent preflight inspection.
d. Check the tire pressure before the next flight.
11. What holds the landing gear in the down (extended) position:
a. The landing gear actuator brakes.
b. Over-center folding braces.
c. Continuous mechanical pressure from the landing gear actuator motors.
d. Both A and B are correct.
12. What will happen if the landing gear is in transit for longer than 15
seconds?
a. A LANDING GEAR FAIL caution message is displayed.
b. The landing gear brakes will automatically engage regardless of gear
position.
c. The pilot must recycle the landing gear lever immediately.
d. A LANDING GEAR FAULT advisory message is displayed
13. Which is the only condition where the landing gear warning horn may be
silenced?
a. Airspeed less than 140 knots below 12,500 feet MSL and either or both
throttles at idle.
b. Airspeed less than 120 knots and either or both throttles at idle.
c. Flaps extended beyond T/O setting.
14. The brakes on the Eclipse 500 are:
a. Electrically operated and actuated.
b. Mechanically actuated and hydraulically operated.
c. Electronically operated and mechanically actuated (Brake by wire).
