Q

How does engine or wing anti-ice affect stall warning logic?

A

Stall warning logic adjusts stick shaker (S/S) and min maneuver (M/M) speed bars on the airspeed indicator. FMC displayed VREF is unchanged. Stall warning logic resets when engine anti-ice turned off, unless wing anti-ice was used (resets upon landing).

Q

What is the definition of icing conditions?

A

OAT (on ground and for takeoff), or TAT (in flight) is 10°C (50°F) or below, and visible moisture in any form is present (clouds, fog with visibility of one mile or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals), or operation on ramps, taxiways, or runways where surface snow, ice, standing water, or slush may be ingested or freeze on the engines or nacelles.

Q

When must wing anti-ice be used?

A

On the ground –
• Between engine start and takeoff, when icing conditions exist or are anticipated,
! unless the aircraft is, or will be protected by Type II or Type IV fluid
In flight –
• Primary method is to use as a de-icer, allowing ice to accumulate before turning wing anti-ice on
• Secondary method is to use as anti-icer only, using wing anti-ice prior to ice accumulation. This method is required during extended operations (including holding) in moderate to severe icing conditions.

• frost/ice observed on lower wing surface outboard of fuel measuring stick #4

18
Q

A

No, but the contamination may be removed with limited amounts of heated deicing fluid.

19
Q

What amount of frozen contamination on the fuselage is acceptable?

A

It is acceptable to have a thin coating of hoarfrost on the fuselage, provided all vents and ports are clear and the hoarfrost does not extend down to the area of the windows. Otherwise, the fuselage must be deiced.

20
Q

When may adverse weather maintenance procedures be required prior to engine start?

A

At ambient temperatures colder than -40°C/F (see OM1 GEN 30.3)

21
Q

When must engines be idled for 2 minutes prior to changing thrust lever position?

A

At ambient temperatures colder than -35°C (-31°F)

22
Q

What engine indications might be observed after starting in extreme cold weather?

A

Oil pressure may be above the normal range and the OIL FILTER BYPASS Alert may illuminate for several minutes. Operate the engine at idle until oil pressure returns to the normal range. If oil temperature stabilizes within limits and oil pressure is still above the normal range, shut down the engine.

23
Q

When should ground engine run-ups be accomplished in icing conditions?

A

• 70% N1 (or as high as practical) for 30 seconds at 30-minute (or less) intervals when engine anti-ice is required and OAT is 3°C or below
• 70% N1 for 1 second at 10-minute (or less) intervals
when operating in freezing rain/drizzle/fog or heavy snow
• 70% N1 for 30 seconds prior to brake release at start of takeoff roll when engine anti-ice is required and OAT is 3°C or below (confirm stable engine operation)

24
Q

When should ground engine run-ups be accomplished in icing conditions?

A

• 70% N1 for 1 second at 10-minute (or less) intervals
when operating in freezing rain/drizzle/fog or heavy snow
• 70% N1 for 30 seconds prior to brake release at start of takeoff roll when engine anti-ice is required and OAT is 3°C or below (confirm stable engine operation)

25
Q

When should in flight engine run-ups be accomplished in icing conditions?

A

Run up to 80% N1 (one at a time) at 15-minute intervals in moderate/severe icing conditions

26
Q

After deicing/anti-icing is complete, when should flaps be extended to ensure maximum anti-icing fluid effectiveness and to avoid a significant decrease in holdover time?

Q

Are takeoffs authorized in heavy snow conditions?
