The question states: 'The elevator feel computer gives force feedback based partly on airspeed information taken from the captain’s side pitot tube.'
Option 1: True. To evaluate this, consider how elevator feel (often part of motion feedback or flight control feel) systems typically use airdata inputs to modulate force feedback. If this statement asserted that the system uses airspeed from the captain’s pitot tube specifically, you’d need to verify whether the aircraft’s data bus provides access to the captain’s pitot input for that subsystem. In many aircraft architectures, airspeed data used for control feel is drawn from a shared airdata computer or a central source, not exclusively from the captain’s pitot tube. Therefore, tying the feedback directly to only the captain’s pitot input is unlikely and would be an unusual, cockpit-specific implementation. This makes the statement dubious and likely false.
Option 2: False. A more plausible explanation is that elevator feel systems use airspeed information from a common air data system or from the aircraft’s pitot-static system inputs, which may be shared across pilots and not isolated to the captain’s side pitot tube. The notion of basing force feedback specifically on the captain’s pitot tube would raise concerns about asymmetry between captain and first officer readings and is not consistent with standard, redundant airdata practices. Consequently, this option aligns with typical aircraft design principles, making it the correct choice.
In comparing the two statements, the key distinction rests on data source and system design norms: using a dedicated captain-side pitot input for the elevator feel would be atypical and non-redundant, whereas referencing a shared or standard air data input fits common practice. This helps explain why the claim in option one is unlikely and why option two better reflects standard engineering expectations.
