Answer 13

500 lbs per side

Question 14

Do we need fuel anti-icing additive as long as the minimum oil temperature is achieved?

Answer 14

No, Fuel is heated thru the fuel/oil heat exchangers

Question 15

The powered fuel transfer valve fails to open, what is the backup way of moving fuel between the wing tanks?

Answer 18

Gravity transfer

Question 19

In “AUTO” when do the electric fuel pumps come on?

Answer 19

Run switch to “RUN” - for engine start

Low fuel pressure indication

Right pump for APU operation when right engine is not running
