35
How is fuel normally delivered?
Under pressure
36
What are the AC pumps in the fuel system?
2 AC boost pumps in each main tank 2 Overide Jettison pumps in Main 2 & 3 2 Overide Jettison pumps in CWT
37
Explain the fuel Crossfeed system.
4 Crossfeed valves to allow fuel delivery from the CWT or any Main to ANY engine or the APU. All normally closed.
38
Where does the APU normally get fuel?
- Main tank 2 - w/ AC power fuel is supplied by main pump 2 aft. Main 3 aft operates to prevent tank to tank transfer and provides fuel if main 2 fails. - w/o AC power a dedicated DC pump in main 2 provides fuel.
