For electrical heating, the power is supplied primarily by DC current.

Correct! Wrong!

For electrical heating, the power is supplied primarily by AC wild current.

Freezing rain is a precipitation composed of large super cooled water droplets which may be transformed into clear ice when impacting the skin of the aircraft in negative temperature condition. Nevertheless, if the SAT is slightly negative, these large droplets may not freeze immediately when impacting: clear ice builds up behind the leading edge. The ice detector may become inefficient.

Aircraft Performance Monitoring (APM) triggering thresholds - Depending on the flight phase, if drag and speed degradation exceed predefined threshold values, messages and/or alerts are triggered. They are organized on three levels of alerting depending on aircraft performance degradation. DEGRADED PERF alert indicates a significant performance degradation (in the order of 22 % or 28 % of drag increase). In climb, the alert is triggered by an increase of drag that generates a drastic reduction of:

Correct! Wrong!

MODE SEL AUTO pb pressed in - Two modes are available. First mode is 'NORMAL' and it is to be used when SAT is between -10 deg.C (14 deg.F) and 0 deg.C (32 deg.F). Second mode is 'ON' and it is to be used when SAT is between:

Correct! Wrong!

Below -30 deg.C (-22 deg.F) icing problems should not be present (no supercooled water).

When DE ICING OVRD mode is selected, boots inflate:

Correct! Wrong!

The emergency deicing activation is selected (timing cycle = 60 seconds), the light comes on white and all deicing lights turn off. This position is used when the associated FAULT light comes on.

The ice detector system is self-tested when the aircraft is in flight, and any failure generates a FAULT light with single chime.

Correct! Wrong!

The system is self-tested constantly, and any failure generates a FAULT light with single chime.

Aircraft ice protection is provided by electrical heating of:

Rain removal from front windshields is provided by two wipers: Each wiper is driven by a two-speed electric motor. They are controlled by two WIPER selectors on the overhead panel: one for the captain, and one for the F/O. Maximum speed to operate the wipers is _____.

Correct! Wrong!

Horns heating is inhibited on ground.

Correct! Wrong!

MODE SEL AUTO pb pressed in - MODE SEL is operative and available depending on the temperature. When selected on, the propeller anti-ice system starts to heat the blades only when NP is sensed above _____.

Correct! Wrong!

The push to test pushbutton is used to check the ice detector correct operation. Press and hold test button for _____

Correct! Wrong!

ICING amber label is displayed flashing on FMA (with associated warning) if system works correctly. A ICING DETECT alert is displayed with associated procedure on EWD. Master caution light and single chime are activated.

The ice detector indicates that ice accretion is building up on the aircraft. Therefore, the amber icing light turning off must be regarded as an end of ice accretion and not as an absence of ice on the aircraft. Consequently a visual check must be performed to assure aircraft is cleared of ice after having encountered ice accretion conditions.

Correct! Wrong!

When the ice detector detects ice accretion:

Correct! Wrong!

The side windows are protected by an electrically heated system consisting of small wires embedded between two plies of glass. It is supplied with 28 V DC and keeps the inner temperature over:

Correct! Wrong!

For the pneumatic system, the engines supply bleed air through the LH and RH deice valves (also called Pressure Regulator and Shutoff Valves, PRSOV) regardless of the engine bleed valves position.

Correct! Wrong!

Aircraft Performance Monitoring (APM) triggering thresholds - Depending on the flight phase, if drag and speed degradation exceed predefined threshold values, messages and/or alerts are triggered. They are organized on three levels of alerting depending on aircraft performance degradation. CRUISE SPEED LOW message indicates a limited performance degradation (in the order of 10 % of drag increase compared to theoretical drag in the same conditions) with a speed decay at least _____ below the expected cruise speed.

Correct! Wrong!

With boots that equip the ATR 72-600, there is no need to wait for ice accretion on airframe before selecting it ON. This system MUST be selected ON as soon as and as long as ice accretion develops on airframe.

Correct! Wrong!

Aircraft Performance Monitoring (APM) triggering thresholds - Depending on the flight phase, if drag and speed degradation exceed predefined threshold values, messages and/or alerts are triggered. They are organized on three levels of alerting depending on aircraft performance degradation. All messages or alerts (cautions and/or warnings) are triggered after a confirmation time of _____.

Correct! Wrong!

Propeller anti-ice is performed by resistors installed near the surface of the inboard sections of the blade leading edges. On each propeller, the heating elements are electrically connected in three blades (every other blade). Propeller 1 ANTI ICING PWR and Propeller 2 ANTI ICING PWR are supplied:
