The yaw damper is typically disengaged at ground level and turned on shortly after takeoff; an active yaw damper during the takeoff run could potentially mask serious issues such as engine failure. [ 2 ] [ 1 ] Equally, the system is commonly disengaged prior to landing, as it could inhibit the control authority to the pilot at the critical ...
The 6000-series machine's basic instruction set has more than 185 single-address one-word instructions. [11] The basic instructions are one word; the instruction format is an extension of that of the GE-600 series, with the opcode field extended to 10 bits by adding bit 27 as the low-order bit; that bit is zero in all GE-600 series instructions.
