The advantages of grounding negative pole of the a/c structure are:

the school in Cranfield not mentioning anynames say: weight saving, easy fault detection, reduction of short circuit risk

The big groundschool school in the SW of the UK say: weight saving, easy fault detection, increase of short circuit risk

The other qu - wing anti ice systems used to protect the?

The big school in cranfield say: leading edges, slats, leading edge flaps

the school in the SW of the UK say, leading edges only

Does anyone know who the Oxford teacher of ASP, Air gen is? Is he a pprune surfer ?

Just had a reply:

1)During flight , the wing anti-ice is used to protect

the:

a) Wing leading edges only

b) Wing leadings edges, slats and leading edge flaps.



ANSWER: Anti icing is used on leading edges and leading edge slats but NOT leading edge flaps



2) The advantages of grounding the negative pole of the aircraft structure are:

1. Weight Saving

2. Easy fault detection

3. Increase of short circuit risk

4. Reduction of short circuit risk

5. Circuits are not single- wired lined



The answer given is


a) 1, 2 ,4

b) 1, 3 ,5

c) 2, 3 ,5

d) 1, 2, 3

ANSWER: 1 2 3 is correct answer although you could argue that an increase in short circuit risk is not an advantage but it is a characteristic of that type of system

Good to clear it up Thanks Ox
