29
What does the Rudder ratio changer do?
* Uses airspeed information to vary the amount of rudder displacement providing structural protection for the rudder
* LOW SPEEDS = Full displacement
* HIGH SPEEDS = Limited displacement
* Powered by the LEFT hydraulic system
30
What happens if there is a rudder ratio changer fault?
* Left HYD system automatically rudder actuator automatically depressurises to provide structural protection for the rudder
