- what is the minimum number of wire supports per deck pendants on the chain arrest gear?
- eight
- the deck pendant on the E-5 chain gear may be inspected in the installed position under what condition?

- what is the primary and secondary method used to measure aircraft runout and the length of chain pullout for the E-5 arresting gear?
-
primary= painted marks on the runway
secondary=painted marks on the chain - what will the runout distance normally be?
- twice the chain length plus 1/2 the arresting cable length
- how should one decide the maximum chain length that should be used for a given available runout area?
-
available runout length
subtract 1/2 the arresting cable length, then divide the remainder by 2 - concerning the CF4000L fire-fighting truck, what is the effective range, in feet, of the roof turrent and the bumper turret?
