A

1) SAT is 10C or below and visible moisture in any form is present,

and/or

2)SAT is 10C or below and operating on runways, taxiways,
ramps, etc., where surface snow, ice, standing water or slush
may be ingested by the engines or freeze on the engines,
nacelles, or engine sensor probes.

257
Q

Freezing Precipitation - is departure permitted with these conditions?

A

May only depart in LIGHT freezing rain or drizzle

check holdover times

258
Q

Type III anti-ice fluid

Fluid penalty is not required, unless:

A

temperature is LESS than -16C

259
Q

Type III anti-ice fluid

How many HOT charts are there?

A

Two:

“Low Speed” - used if temp is equal to, or above, -16C

“High Speed” - used if temp is below -16C

260
Q

Type IV anti-ice fluid

When does fluid penalty apply?

A

at all temperatures

261
Q

When may flights depart into MODERATE icing conditions?

A
  • point of departure meets alternate weather minima & conditions allow for a safe return

**except at YTZ, where YYZ can be used if suitable

262
Q

When may flights operate within known SEVERE icing conditions

A

never.

263
Q

Icing Protection:

“STANDARD” (2)

A

1) pitot-static heat on

2) engine intake doors closed in non-icing conditions

264
Q

Icing Protection

“STANDARD PLUS”

“Standard systems”, plus (3)

A

1) prop heat
2) windshield heat
3) engine intake bypass doors

**must be on any time we are in icing conditions (air or ground)

265
Q

Icing Protection

“ON”

All of the previous systems, plus: (2)

A

1) Air frame mode selector rotary switch to FAST
2) INCR REF SPEED switch ON

**used whenever ice is accumulating on the air frame, EXCEPT for Supplement 76

“take-off into icing conditions to 1,000 AGL with ref speeds switch off”

266
Q

Icing Conditions

Approach Speed additives:

1) Flap 15
2) flap 35

A

1) Increase Vref by 20 kts
2) Increase Vref by 15 kts

**always bug Vref, but mentally fly the faster speed

267
Q

CONTAMINATED runway: (Bombardier definition) (2)

A
  • more than 25% of the runway within the required length or width is covered with standing water, slush, snow, or ice

OR

  • 100% of the runway is covered by compacted snow
268
Q

CONTAMINATED RUNWAY (Bombardier definition)

Runway may be considered non-contaminated when:

A
  • standing water, loose snow, slush is less than 1/8” depth AND braking action is good

OR

If the contaminant is loose, blowing or drifting snow and is not adhering to the runway surface

269
Q

Is there a document that supersedes the CRFI chart?

A

Yes, the Contaminated Crosswind Table, found in the QRH and Route Manual

(approved by Bombardier)

270
Q

CRFI - YTZ Operations

1) Operations are restricted when:
(refer to route manual)

2) Operations are prohibited when:

A

1) CRFI is below 0.60
a) departures - no tailwind,NTOP/MTOP, FL15, Bleeds OFF)
b) landing - NORM NP, no STEEP if runway is contaminated

2) CRFI is below 0.50

271
Q

Q400 Representative Surface

A

Outboard Roll Spoilers

check within 5 minutes of starting the take-off roll

272
Q

WET RUNWAY (Bombardier definition)

A

when there is sufficient moisture on the runway

surface to cause it to appear reflective, but without significant areas of standing water

273
Q
