10) Undercarriage retraction - extension handle - black
back = retracted,
The undercarriage is locked in the extended position by an overcentre
locking arrangement and an additional safety catch. The handle is to be
turned towards the cockpit wall, so that the locking catch will engage.
In retracted position the landing gear is locked over centre.
With TN1000/13 executed, standard from ser. no. 10-133 on:
An additional landing gear positive locking device (notch and latch at the
landing gear struts) secures the landing gear in the extended position.
An additional catch in the front upper area of the landing gear box secures
the landing gear in retracted position.
11) Airbrake handle - blue
The wheel brake is operated at the end of the airbrake handle travel.
Parking brake combined with an airbrake securing device (Piggott-
hook): Pull the airbrake handle back to actuate the wheelbrake and rotate
the handle to the cockpit wall. A detent will engage in one of 4 notches to
hold the system in this position.
In case the airbrakes mistakenly haven't been locked, a detent engages in
one of several notches to avoid inadvertent deployment of the airbrakes. To
open and to close the airbrakes the operating handle must be rotated into
the cockpit so far that the detent passes the notches.
