Only on the ECAM Fuel page.

#13. During normal operations when should the fuel transfer valves open?

When a low level is sensed in the center tank.

When a low level is sensed in either outer wing cell.

When low level is sensed in either inner wing cell.

#14. What does an amber line across the last two digits of the fuel quantity mean?

The fuel quantity indication is inaccurate.

A disagreement between fuel measured and fuel entered on the MCDU has been detected.

Not all the fuel aboard is useable.

#15. The APU fuel system:

Uses its own dedicated DC powered fuel pump

Obtains fuel from either center tank pump

Obtains fuel from the left fuel manifold via the left side fuel pumps or if needed, the APU fuel pump.

Obtains fuel from the left fuel manifold via the right side fuel pumps.

#16. With fuel in the center tank the CTR TK MODE SEL push button selected to AUTO and CTR TK PUMP push buttons ON (lights out), which of the following conditions cause the center tank fuel pumps to stop?

Extension of the slats (after completion of the short test cycle).

Anytime the slats are extended or an overfill condition is detected in either wing inner cell

For a short test period after the first Engine Master Switch is selected “ON” when the slats are extended.

#17. With fuel in the center tank, the CTR TK MODE SEL push button selected to AUTO and the CTR TK PUMP push buttons ON (lights out), the center tank pumps:

Will operate for a short period after the first engine MASTER switch is selected ON and while slats are retracted.

Both are correct.

They will continue to run until the center tank is empty or slats are extended.

#18. After engine start, center tank fuel pumps run for ______ minutes regardless of slat position.

1 minute.

2 minutes.

3 minutes.

5 minutes.

#19. The message OUTER TK FUEL XFRD appears in the MEMO. What does this mean?

It is a reminder to show that a transfer valve is open

Fuel is transferring from the center tank to the inner tank.

It is a reminder to open the outer tank transfer valve.

Fuel is transferring from the inner tank to the outer tank.

#20. The wing fuel transfer valves are:

Manually controlled and open when the MODE SEL push button is selected to MAN.

Are electrically held closed

Open automatically at the start of refueling

Automatically close if a low level is sensed in either main wing tank, they automatically close at the next fueling.

#21. Why do the center tank pups stop automatically when then slats are extended for takeoff?

To keep the center of gravity as low as possible.

Dumping takeoff, the center tank fuel is pumped to the rear to trim aircraft

To ensure that the engines are fed from the wing tanks for takeoff (feeding segregation)

During takeoff, the center tank fuel is gravity fed only.

#22. What precaution should you observe when gravity feeding fuel?

Operate the aircraft below 15,000 feet.

Use center tank first.

Open the crossfeed when above FL250

No precautions are necessary.

#23. Refueling time at normal pump pressure is _ minutes for the wing tanks and _ minutes for all tanks.

15 & 25.

17 & 20.

15 & 20.

25 & 35.

#24. After engine shutdown, what are your actions to close the fuel transfer valves?

You have to switch the inner tank pumps off.

You have to call maintenance to close the valves.

No action is required. The valves will close automatically during the next refueling.

#25. Fuel can be transferred from tank to tank:

Only on the ground.

In flight if the fuel X FEED push button is selected OPEN.

In flight if the fuel X FEED push button is selected OPEN and center tank MODE SEL push button is selected to MAN.

Fuel can never be transferred.

#26. How has the fuel been transferred from the outer to the inner tanks?

By setting the MODE SEL pushbutton to MAN.

The transfer valve has been opened automatically by the low lever sensor in the center tanks

By setting the MODE SEL PB to AUTO

The transfer valve has been opened automatically by the low level sensor in the inner tank.

#27. What is the minimum fuel quantity for takeoff?

1,000 kg

1,200 kg.

1,500 kg

2,000 kg

#28. The AC powered auxiliary fuel boost pump for the APU operates whenever the APU is operating and no other pump is on. it has an alternate power source on the AC Static Inverter bus for battery-only starts

True

False
