What is the airspeed limit when the APU door is failed open and the APU is not operating?

  1. 200 knots

  2. 210 knots

  3. 220 knots

  4. 230 knots

The correct answer is: 220 knots

The correct airspeed limit when the APU door is failed open and the APU is not operating is 220 knots. This limitation is set to ensure that aerodynamic forces do not exert undue stress on the APU door in the event of a failure. The operational parameters are designed to maintain safety and prevent potential damage to the aircraft systems. When the APU door is left open while the APU is not in operation, the aircraft must be flown within specific speed limits to mitigate the risk of increased drag and potential structural issues. By adhering to this limit, pilots can ensure safe handling characteristics and maintain the integrity of the aircraft system until corrective action can be taken.
