FAA AMT (Aviation Maintenance Technician) Airframe Practice Exam

Question: 1 / 1030

What should not be set when brakes are hot in an aircraft equipped with hydraulically operated multiple disk type brake assemblies?

Parking brake

When brakes are hot in an aircraft equipped with hydraulically operated multiple disk type brake assemblies, the parking brake should not be set. This is because the parking brake is also hydraulically operated and setting it could lead to overheating and potential failure of the brake system. The landing gear, hydraulic pumps, and brake pedals do not have a direct effect on the brakes and can be set when the brakes are hot. Therefore, they are not the correct answer.
