What type of brake assembly has its own reservoir and is entirely independent of the aircraft’s main hydraulic system?
|
Independent type.
|
|
On a Goodyear master brake cylinder, how is the hydraulic fluid fed from the external reservoir to the master cylinder?
|
Gravity.
|
|
What method is used to bleed a brake system employing a Goodyear master cylinder?
|
Top down method.
|
|
The main system pressure in a power boost brake system is used for what function?
|
Used only to assist pedal movement.
|
|
Because of the weight and size, what type of brake system is used on aircraft requiring a large volume of fluid to operate the brakes?
|
Power brake control valve system.
|
|
What connects the brake pedal linkage to the control valve of the power brake control valve (pressure ball type)?
|
Tuning fork.
|
|
What is the purpose of the brake debooster cylinder?
|
It reduces the pressure to the brake and increases the volume of fluid flow.
|
|
With the exception of those aircraft equipped with independent-type brake systems, what additional brake systems are provided?
|
Emergency brake systems.
|
|
What types of disc brakes are usually installed on medium-sized aircraft?
|
Multiple or trimetallic disc brakes.
|
|
On disc brake assemblies, brake linings are often referred to by what name?
|
Pucks.
|
|
When are operational checks on disc brakes usually performed?
|
When the aircraft is being taxied.
|
|
What types of brakes are used on aircraft where more braking friction is desired with lower pressures?
|
Dual disc brakes.
|
|
What is the total number of pucks installed on dual disc brakes?
|
Sixteen (16).
|
|
What traps a predetermined amount of fluid in the brake to give correct clearance between the rotating discs and the stationary discs in multiple/trimetallic brake systems?
|
Automatic adjuster.
|
|
What types of brakes are designed for high-pressure hydraulic systems and are considered heavy-duty brakes?
|
Segmented rotor.
|
|
What type of brake system uses utility or main hydraulic system pressure from the aircraft, which allows for higher brake line pressure?
|
Power brake system.
|
|
What is used to check the reservoir fluid level on an independent brake system?
|
Sight gauge.
|
|
What power source should be removed from the aircraft prior to operationally checking the emergency braking system?
|
External hydraulic and electrical power.
|
|
During the operational check of the braking system, the antiskid light will illuminate when the antiskid switch is placed in what position?
|
Off.
|
|
When checking brake linings, what is the wear limitation that requires the entire set of linings to be replaced?
|
Worn to a thickness of less than 1/16th (one-sixteenth) inch.
|
|
How many minutes must the emergency brake system be purged with heated nitrogen?
|
15 (fifteen) minutes.
|
|
When you bleed aircraft brake systems, what factor generally determines the method to be used?
|
Design.
|
|
In the bottom-up method of bleeding a brake system, what is the portable tank called that supplies the pressure?
|
Bleeder bomb.
|
|
What is the minimum period of time that an overheated wheel brake assembly must be allowed to cool in ambient air?
|
45 (forty five) minutes.
|
|
After a brake reservoir has been cleaned and cure-date parts have been installed, how many minutes should the reservoir be submerged in a tank of water to check for leaks?
|
2 (two) minutes.
|
|
What substance should all internal parts of the power brake valve be immersed in before reassembly?
|
Filtered, clean hydraulic fluid.
|
|
How much hydraulic test stand pressure is required to perform an operational test on a power brake valve?
|
0 to 4,500 psi.
|
|
What fluid should be applied to all sealing devices during reassembly of the master brake cylinder?
|
Hydraulic fluid.
|
|
What device should be installed on the end of a piston rod before disassembling a master brake cylinder to prevent personal injury due to preload of the springs?
|
An AM350-4 nut.
|
|
What letters are used after the applicable step to identify steps that require quality assurance verification in the Maintenance Instruction Manual (MIM)?
|
QA.
|
|
During single or dual brake assembly maintenance, what prevents the piston from returning to its original position when the brakes are released?
|
An adjusting spring.
|
|
What fastness the wheel brake disc guide linings to the disc guide?
|
Rivets.
|
|
How long should you hold the brake pressure when testing for fluid leakage and proper operation on the duel disc brake assembly?
|
Two (2) minutes.
|
|
As brake disc wear occurs, what components provide automatic adjustment through the split collar?
|

|
|
What is the minimum percentage of the circumference allowed on rivets used on the wear pad of the formed head flush with the sides of the countersunk area?
|
Fifty (50) percent.
