Inoperative Items (Center System Loss)

WARNING

Center Hydraulic System Loss 시 사용 불가 항목:

  • Primary flap and slat operation → Plan more time for slower flap/slat (alternate operation)
  • Main landing gear hydraulic operation → Alternate gear extension 필요
  • Main gear steering → Inoperative
  • Auto speedbrake → Inoperative
  • Spoilers → Reduced effectiveness
