WDR.

53
Q

Define icing conditions.

A

OAT (on the ground) or TAT (in flight) is 10°C or below and any of the following exist: visible moisture is present, or ice, snow, slush or standing water is present on the ramps, taxiways, or runways.

54
Q

Define visible moisture.

Clouds, fog with visibility of one statute mile (1600m) or less, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals, etc.

55
Q

A

When engine anti-ice is required and the OAT is 3°C or below.

56
Q

What is the engine run up procedure during taxi in icing conditions?

A

Run the engines up to a minimum of 50% N1 for approximately 1 second duration at intervals no greater than 15 minutes. (60% N1 for 30 seconds in 767-300s with GE engines)

57
Q

When engine anti-ice is required and the OAT is 3°C or below, which type of takeoff is required?

A

Standing takeoff - hold the brakes in position until engines are stabilized at or above 60% N1 before the start of the takeoff roll.

58
Q

When is engine anti-ice required in flight?

A

Engine anti-ice must be AUTO or ON during all flight operations when icing conditions exist or are anticipated, except during climb and cruise when the temp is below -40°C SAT. Engine anti-ice must be AUTO or ON before, and during descent in all icing conditions, including temps below -40°C SAT.

59
Q

What is the fan ice removal procedure during flight in moderate to severe icing conditions for prolonged periods with N1 settings at or below 70%, or if fan icing is suspected due to high engine vibration?

61
Q

64
Q

Maximum depth of dry snow on runway for landing.

65
Q

For performance purposes, when is a wet runway not wet?

A

If the runway is grooved or has a porous friction overlay in the last 2/3s of the stopping area.

Note: the 757-300 is the exception and cannot benefit from this logic, AWABS will automatically default to “wet” performance numbers when the runway is reported wet.

66
Q

True or False: During hot weather operations, use of RECIRC FAN(s) is recommended.

A

False. Turning on the RECIRC FAN(s) has a negative effect on passenger comfort. This introduces hot ambient air from around the cargo compartments to the mix manifold.

67

A

Moderate to heavy rain, hail, or sleet.

68
Q

How much additional airspeed should be added to the flaps up maneuvering speed on the 757-300 if wing anti-ice is selected on in flight?

A

Up to 5 knots may be added to flaps up maneuvering speed. This additive ensures full maneuver margin (40° bank capability).
