2. Nose on horizon
3. Center the ball

5. Control airspeed

Question 2

Electrical power failure/dual generator failure

Answer 2

1. Safe altitude and airspeed establish
2. Stab - check position, slew as required
3. APU emergency start procedure - perform
4. Computer power, SAS 1, SAS 2, TRIM, autopilot, and STAB auto PB - ON

Warning: ensure airspeed vs stab angle limits are not exceeded. Stab auto mode is inop.

Note: the stab position indicator will be inop with no power to the AC essential bus. Attempt to check visually.

The capability of slewing the stab is retained by the DC essentially bus. Travel is limited to 35 degrees if full down and 30 if full up when a power failure occurs.

A loss of electrical power to the engine will result in activation of the engine anti ice system regardless of the position of the engine anti ice switch or the de ice master switch, reducing max torque available by up to 18%. A malfunction inlet anti ice valve can reduce torque available by up to 49%.
