T-45A UJPT, E2-C2, ADV & IUT Eng-13
Hydraulic Subsystems
MOTIVATION
Knowledge of aircraft hydraulic subsystems
characteristics and operations is critical to safe flying.
OVERVIEW
In this lesson we will build on your understanding of the
T-45A hydraulic system. For the T-45A, you will learn the
purpose, functional characteristics, and components of--
and the location of controls for--the hydraulic subsystems
systems.
In this lesson we will be covering the:
*
Physical characteristics, functional descriptions, and
operating limitations of the major components of the
hydraulic subsystems, including the nose- and main-
landing gear, nose wheel steering (NWS), launch
bar, wheel brake anti/skid, and arresting hook
systems
*
Purpose, function, and location of hydraulic
subsystems cockpit controls and indicators
*
T-45A systems
REFRESHER
Recall that:
*
In addition to flight controls, HYD 1 supplies 3,000
psi pressure to operate all the "general services"
hydraulic requirements in the T-45A
