DEFINITION OF ICING CONDITIONS
‐ Icing conditions exist when the OAT (on ground or after takeoff) or the TAT (in flight) is at or below 10 °C and visible moisture in any form is present (such as clouds, fog with visibility of 1 sm or less, rain, snow, sleet or ice crystals).
‐ Icing conditions also exist when the OAT on the ground and for takeoff is at or below 10 °C and operating on ramps, taxiways or runways where surface snow, standing water or slush may be ingested by the engines, or freeze on engines, nacelles or engine sensor probes.
DEFINITION OF SEVERE ICE ACCRETION
Ice accretion is considered severe when the ice accumulation on the airframe reaches approximately 5 mm (0.2 in) thick or more.
DEFINITION OF THIN HOARFROST
Thin hoarfrost is typically a white crystalline deposit which usually develops uniformly on exposed surfaces on cold and cloudless nights. It is so thin that surface features (lines or markings) can be distinguished beneath it.
The flight crew should _____ use the rain repellent in the case of moderate to heavy rain.
The flight crew should ONLY use the rain repellent in the case of moderate to heavy rain.
The braking system _____ designed to hold the aircraft in a stationary position when a high thrust level is applied on at least one engine.
The braking system IS NOT designed to hold the aircraft in a stationary position when a high thrust level is applied on at least one engine.
During ground procedures that require a thrust increase with braking, the flight crew must ensure that the aircraft remains stationary, and must be ready to immediately retard the thrust levers to
IDLE.
