C. Wings and tail, 6 seconds expanded, 4 seconds contracted
D. Wing, 6 seconds; horizontal stabilizers, 4 seconds

Answer 3

D. Wing, 6 seconds; horizontal stabilizers, 4 seconds

Question 4

4. If the boots are held inflated too long they:

B. Can overheat and deform
C. Can develop a puncture
D. Add dangerous drag

Answer 4

A. Can form the foundation for a new unremovable layer of ice

Question 5

5. If the aircraft is flying through icing conditions, what is the minimum speed necessary to keep the bottom of the wing leading edges ice-free?

A. 100 knots
B. 120 knots
C. 140 knots
D. 160 knots

Answer 5

C. 140 knots

Question 6

6. If the BRAKE DEICE switch in the anti-ice group is positioned to ON, and the BRAKE DEICE annunciator panel is illuminated, :

A. Brake manifolds most likely are receiving hot bleed air
B. Brake manifolds definitely are receiving hot bleed air
C. Brake manifolds are at operating temperature
D. Brake manifolds are receiving an adequate supply of bleed air

Answer 6

A. Brake manifolds most likely are receiving hot bleed air

Question 7

7. After the wheels have retracted into the wheel wells:

A. Brake deice cannot be running at all
B. Brake deice cannot run more than 10 minutes without extending gear again
C. Brake deice cannot run unless it was first turned on prior to retraction
D. Brake deice heat is inoperable be-cause it can eventually cause a fire

Answer 7

B. Brake deice cannot run more than 10 minutes without extending gear again

A ten minute timer is activated when the gear is retracted.

Question 8

8. The windshield temperature is regulated and affected by:

D. An accumulation of ice and snow

Answer 8

C. Heat sensors that sense glass temperature

Question 9

9. During icing conditions in flight, the stall warning:

A. Is reliable as long as the stall warning vane heat is on.
B. Is unreliable unless the wing boots and warning vane heat boots are both on.
C. Is unreliable.
D. Indication speeds are increased automatically to compensate for ice accumulation

Answer 9

C. Is unreliable.

Question 10

10. The engine compressor inlet screen is protected from ice particles by:

A. An electrically-heated structure of in-take vanes.
B. An inertial vane system.
C. A pneumatically-heated intake manifold.
D. Hot exhaust gases blown across the intake.

Answer 10

B. An inertial vane system.

Question 11

11. The windshield wipers can be used under which of these circumstances?

A. On the ground or in flight on a wet windshield
B. On the ground or in flight up to 200 knots on a wet windshield
C. On the ground or during takeoff on a wet or dry windshield
D. Under any circumstances

Answer 11

A. On the ground or in flight on a wet windshield

Question 12

12. Engine air intake lips are:

A. Heated by electrothermal boots.
B. Heated by exhaust gases when the engine is operating.
C. Heated by extracting bleed air when the engine is operating.
D. Not heated because of new nacelle design

Answer 12

B. Heated by exhaust gases when the engine is operating.

Question 13

13. Just prior to brake release with the OAT 5°C (41°F) or lower and visible moisture encountered, what action must be taken?

B. The engine anti-ice must be ON just after liftoff is achieved.
C. The engine anti-ice must be extended only after 500 feet is reached.
D. The engine anti-ice must be extended only after maximum engine takeoff power is achieved.

Answer 13

A. The engine anti-ice must be ON
