What does the amber FLAP EXT LIMIT message indicate?

• A. Flaps extended past 15 in Pusher Ice Mode or past 0 in Pusher Safe Mode
• B. Flaps retracted to minimum
• C. Flaps in transit between positions
• D. Flaps have a hydraulic fault

Answer: (A)

The amber FLAP EXT LIMIT warning means the flaps are extended beyond what the current mode allows. In the NGX, the flap extension limit depends on the selected Pusher mode: in Ice Mode the flaps may extend up to 15 degrees, while in Safe Mode they are limited to 0 degrees. If this alert appears, you’ve exceeded those limits with the flaps in use, so you should retract the flaps back within the permitted range or switch to the appropriate mode and verify the flap position. It’s a caution to prevent improper flap deployment, not a primary hydraulic fault or an indication that the flaps are simply moving between positions.
