When in alternate law , all protections except ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, protection will be lost
- A.
Pitch attitude
- B.
Bank angle
- C.
Load factor
Correct Answer
C. Load factorExplanation
When in alternate law, all protections except load factor protection will be lost. This means that the aircraft will no longer have the automatic systems to protect it from exceeding certain load factors, which are forces acting on the aircraft in various directions. Load factor protection is important because exceeding certain load factors can lead to structural damage or even failure of the aircraft. Therefore, when in alternate law, pilots must manually monitor and control the load factor to ensure the safety of the aircraft.Rate this question:

- C.
Can be overridden by the pilot , and it is posible to exceed Vmo, Mmo and stall the aircraft
Correct Answer
C. Can be overridden by the pilot , and it is posible to exceed Vmo, Mmo and stall the aircraftExplanation
Alternate law stabilities refer to the different modes in which an aircraft's flight control system operates. In this case, it means that the high and low speed stabilities can be available in alternate law mode. However, the correct answer states that in this mode, the pilot can override the system and potentially exceed the maximum operating speeds (Vmo and Mmo) and stall the aircraft. This means that the pilot has the ability to override certain limitations set by the system, which can be dangerous if not used properly.Rate this question:

Which of the following statements is always true when operating in alternate law ?
- A.
Extending the landing gear will place the aircraft in mechanical back up law
- B.
Extending the landing gear will place the aircraft in direct law
- C.
Extending the landing Gear will have not effect on the status of the flight controls
Correct Answer
B. Extending the landing gear will place the aircraft in direct lawExplanation
When operating in alternate law, extending the landing gear will place the aircraft in direct law. Alternate law is a mode in aircraft fly-by-wire systems where certain flight control protections are lost, and the system reverts to a simpler mode of operation. In direct law, the flight controls are directly linked to the pilot's inputs without any additional protections or assistance from the flight control system. Therefore, extending the landing gear in this mode will trigger the transition to direct law.Rate this question:
