Q

How many ICE detectors are on the airplane and how do they report ice?

Q

Describe the heating cycle of the ice detectors.

A

When ice is detected the probes heat to clear ice and turn off when probes don’t detect anymore ice. They turn on and off as needed.

Q

What message will you receive if you have bleed source manually set to APU and you turn wing/cowl anti ice on? What will happen?

A

BLEED MISCONFIG caution message will appear.

The valves will not open to allow APU to supply bleed air. (Interlock protection)

17
Q

Should an engine fail in flight can we still provide anti-ice to both wings?

A

Yes, the crossbleed valve will open and non operating side anti ice valve will close.

18
Q

Following engine failure, will anti ice still be available to the affected engine’s cowl?

A

No, there is no way to cross bleed cowls.

19
Q

What is the difference between “WING OVHT” and “A/I DUCT” warning messages?

A

DUCT = bleed air leak
OVHT = possibly a stuck valve

Wing anti ice valves do not automatically close with wing overheat.

20
Q

What will happen automatically with an “ANTI ICE DUCT” warning message?

A

AILC will attempt to isolate the leak.

21
Q

If you did not turn on the PROBES switches on the ground, which probes will be heated regardless of switch position?

A

L/R pitot probe tip and the standby pitot probe.

22
Q

What happens to Probe heating when weight off wheels occurs?

A

They all enable full heat.

23
Q

When would you enable High windshield heat?

A

To de-ice the windshield.

24
Q

In the high position are all windows and windshield heated the same?

A

No, just the windshield is heated on high, the windows remain on low.

25
Q

Which windshields/windows are heated following the loss of all normal AC generators?

A

Only captain side window is on the essential bus.

26
Q

If Captains windshield wipers are set to low and then the FO selects them to high, what speed would they operate at?

A

Follows last assigned so high.
