A Question About the Hydraulic System and NWS

[RglsPhoto]

Last night my left engine was shut down due to an AAA striking.I had to RTB and land with single engine.

After landing I found that I could't turn with NWS(Of course the NWS was engaged), but the rudder moved left or right.

 

It seems that the NWS system relies on the left hydraulic system.

Could any one post a picture of the hog's hydrualic system?

 

Thank you for any replies.:-)

Question Closed

I should search the forum before posting.

Thank you very much,ralfidude.

That's what I need

So with right engine failure you lose speedbrakes, and with left engine failure you lose NWS?

 

Good to know

Wow, nice charts. They look like they're from the actual maintenance book.

Hydraulic Failure

The aircraft has both left and right hydraulic systems and the failure of one still allows adequate flight control response. Failure of either the systems can be indicated by the L and R HYD RES (hydraulic fluid reservoir low) caution light or the L and R HYD PRESS (hydraulic pressure low) caution light. However, the loss of one hydraulic system will reduce rudder authority.

 

If the left hydraulic system fails, you will lose the following systems:

 Flaps

 Nosewheel steering

 Normal landing gear operation

　

 Wheel brakes

 Anti-skid

 Hydraulic control of the left elevator and rudder actuators

 Lose of dual channel pitch and yaw SAS

 

If the right hydraulic system fails, you will lose the following systems:

 

 Slats (will extend with loss of hydraulic power)

 Air refueling slipway and nozzle hatch rollers

 Speed brakes

 Right elevator and rudder actuators

 Lose of dual channel pitch and yaw SAS

FYI...if you loose the right system you can still open your air refueling door, it's spring loaded to the open position, you just won't be able to close the door.

^^ Just gotta love the small details that are implemented in the sim :) ^^

In theory... Yes. In reality, not as easy at it seems. BSEG

Seems silly that while everything else is redundant in the A10, you lose some semi-vital systems when you lose only one hydro system.

 

I know a lot of commercial jets have a pressure distributor so that you can move hydraulic pressure from one system to another with no fluid exchange, so no leakage problems.

 

Though rereading the list, I guess they're not that vital, but still....
