Question 1: Landing gear retraction checks are not required after replacing landing gear components.
A. Ano
B. Ne
Explanation: Landing gear retraction checks should be accomplished after replacing landing gear components.
Question 2: Landing gear shock struts should be regularly inspected for fluid leakage.
A. Ano
B. Ne
Explanation: Landing gear shock struts should be inspected regularly for leakage of fluid and for proper extension.
Question 3: Landing gear retraction checks are only accomplished during annual inspections.
A. Ano
B. Ne
Explanation: Landing gear retraction checks are accomplished during annual and other type inspections, after replacing landing gear components, and after any hard landing, not only during annual inspections.
Question 4: An oleo type landing gear shock strut is inflated with a high-pressure source of dry air or nitrogen.
A. Ano
B. Ne
Explanation: An oleo type landing gear shock strut is inflated with a high-pressure source of dry air or nitrogen.
Question 5: Is the independent brake system designed to decrease pressure and increase the volume of fluid going to the brakes?
A. Ano
B. Ne
Explanation: The study materials state that the debooster in a hydraulic power brake system is responsible for decreasing pressure and increasing the volume of fluid going to the brakes, not the independent system itself.
