Operating characteristics/limitations
Sg 8, fr 37
Flaps Normal
(1) Flaps raised and lowered via single
Operation
actuator
(2) Powered by HYD 1 via push-pull control
rods and bellcrank levers
(3) Extension of flaps via wheel brake/emer-
gency flap accumulator in event of HYD 1
failure
(4) Forward and aft cockpits FLAPS/SLATS
switches are mechanically interconnected
(5) Full extension of flaps is approximately
50 degrees, half approximately 25 degrees
(6) EMERG FLAPS switch fully extends flaps
by commanding wheel brake/emergency
flap accumulator to discharge; no flap
extension if accumulator pressure is less
than 2200 psi
(7) Maximum speed for full or one half
extension 200 KIAS
(8) Maneuvering envelope with flaps extended:
0 to +2.0 g max; maneuvering envelope
with a split flap condition: +1.0 to +1.5 g
max
NOTE: Because of their design, it is highly
unlikely that split flaps will occur in the
T-45C. Should this occur, it will cause
serious control problems.
