A

A positive rate of charge (>0)

29
Q

Where does the Pneumatic System supply air pressure to?

A

Gyro operated instruments:
- Attitude Indicator
- Direction indicator
- Horizontal Situation Indicator
- Autopilot
- Turn/Slip Indicator

De-icer boots on wing/tail/elevators

30
Q

What should you not do if the Pneumatic System fails?

A

Use the autopilot

31
Q

What are the gyro pressure limits?

A

4.3 - 6.1”

32
Q

What are the icing condition limits for the Panther?

A

10°C or less AND visible signs of moisture

33
Q

What does the boot solenoid valve do?

A

Sends air to the boots and cuts off air to the copilot’s gyros to prevent damage.

34
Q

What should be considered when de-icing?

A

Airframe noise may be heard.

Copilot’s gyroscopic instruments may be effected.

35
Q

What parts of the aircraft are heated for de-icing purposes?

A

Left and right pitot tubes

Pilot side windows

Propellor mats

36
Q

What is TAS?

A

Traffic Advisory System

Warning system only, only shows transponder equipped aircraft, so the flight deck must self deconflict.

Following the system saying “Warning Warning” visual of the aircraft should be acquired.

Q

What is the AIMS quick start process?

A

Launch the software

Create a new mission

Enable capture mode and record

Stabilise on the platform position

A

P - Pressure - Disturbance of air flow on static valves.

Instrument - Imperfections in manufacture.

Temperature - Difference in ICAO temperature and reality.

Hysteresis - Differing elastic response at different temperatures.

Barometric - Difference in ICAO pressure and reality.
