On the 54H60–117 propeller, which type of valve opens to allow the output of the standby pump to combine with the output of the main pump?
- A.
  
  Check
- B.
  
  Bypass
- C.
  
  Low pressure relief
- D.
  
  High pressure relief
Correct Answer
A. Check

Explanation
The correct answer is "Check." In the context of the 54H60-117 propeller, a check valve opens to allow the output of the standby pump to combine with the output of the main pump. A check valve is a one-way valve that allows fluid to flow in only one direction, preventing backflow. In this case, it allows the output of the standby pump to flow into the system when needed, while preventing any reverse flow from the system back into the standby pump.

Constant speed can only occur when the throttle is positioned from
- A.
  
  RVS to FLT IDLE
- B.
  
  RVS to GND IDLE
- C.
  
  GND IDLE to FLT IDLE
- D.
  
  FLT IDLE to TAKE OFF
Correct Answer
D. FLT IDLE to TAKE OFF

Explanation
Constant speed can only occur when the throttle is positioned from FLT IDLE to TAKE OFF because these positions correspond to the throttle being set at a specific level that maintains a steady engine speed. The other options mentioned do not necessarily indicate a constant speed, as they may refer to different throttle positions that do not guarantee a steady engine speed.

- A.
  
  Reviewing past engine accident investigation reports
- B.
  
  Tracking serially controlled components and modules
- C.
  
  Early detection of performance degradation and/or failures
- D.
  
  Documenting engine overspeed and overtemperature conditions
Correct Answer
C. Early detection of performance degradation and/or failures

Explanation
The primary goal of the engine trending and diagnostics (ET&D) program is to detect any decline in performance or potential failures in turbine engines at an early stage. This allows for timely intervention and preventive measures to prevent or limit damage to the engines. By reviewing past engine accident investigation reports, tracking serially controlled components and modules, and documenting engine overspeed and overtemperature conditions, the program can gather valuable data and insights to identify any signs of performance degradation or failures. This proactive approach helps ensure the safety and reliability of turbine engines.

In the beta range of the 54H60–117 propeller, which cam increases the speeder spring tension?
- A.
  
  Beta set
- B.
  
  Speed set
- C.
  
  Backup valve
- D.
  
  Beta follow-up
Correct Answer
B. Speed set

Explanation
The correct answer is "Speed set." In the beta range of the 54H60-117 propeller, the speed set cam increases the tension of the speeder spring. This cam is responsible for controlling the pitch of the propeller blades, allowing for adjustments in speed. By increasing the tension of the speeder spring, the speed set cam can effectively control the pitch and ultimately increase the speed of the propeller.
