Q

Will there be an increase or decrease in fuel flow when the recirculation fans are operative?

A

The recirculation fans circulate discharged air back into the mix manifold. This allows a reduction in cabin air ventilation, permitting
the packs to operate at a reduced flow. This will result in a decrease in fuel flow

Q

How do the pack controllers control temperature?

A

They regulate the pack output air temperature to satisfy the temperature requirement of the compartment requiring the coolest air.
Hot trim air is then added through the trim air valves to control temperature in each of the other compartments

Q

Can wing anti-ice be operated on the ground?

A

Wing anti-ice is inhibited on the ground by the air / ground logic system. If a landing is made with the switch ON, the wing anti-ice
valves automatically close at touchdown

Q

What are the two types of fuel scavenge systems?

A

Older aircraft vs. newer aircraft modifications
1) A scavenge system will operate automatically to transfer any unused centre fuel into the main tanks. This begins when the
main tanks are approx. half empty
2) Centre fuel pump power is automatically removed several seconds after CTR FUEL PUMP messages are displayed. It is
installed to ensure continued centre fuel pump operation is terminated

Q

Is engine operation still possible without the fuel pumps turned on?

A

Yes. When main tank fuel pressure is low, each engine can draw fuel from it’s corresponding tank through a suction feed line that
bypasses the pumps. However, at high altitude thrust deterioration or engine flameout may occur as a result of the fuel flow reduction

are off with more than 1200lbs in the centre tank. The FUEL CONFIG light also illuminates when the LOW FUEL caution message
appears because either main tank quantity is below 2200lbs

Q

What is the purpose of the Nitrogen Generation System (NGS)?

A

The NGS converts bleed air to nitrogen-enriched air during all phases of flight. The nitrogen-enriched air is delivered to the centre
fuel tank to reduce flammability in the tank

Q

What is the purpose of selecting FLT on the engine start selectors following a loss of dual engine failure?

A

FADEC equipped aircraft have auto-relight which will operate BOTH ignitors when N2 drops below idle speed. Non-FADEC
equipped aircraft do not have this feature, so the engine start selectors must be switched to FLT to ensure BOTH ignitors are active.

trim switches are inhibited. Alternate trimming does not cause autopilot disengagement

6-9-20 (5)

108

operate the stabiliser. It will automatically activate if both the left and centre hydraulic systems are lost in flight. Only electric trim is
available at approximately ¼ the normal rate

6-9-20 (6)

109
Q

What are the operational considerations if the EICAS advisory message RUDDER RATIO is displayed?
