thanks for your detailed input....that is exactly what is happening here in kuwait now days while on transite ....

what will you really do incase that 'AIR L (R) WING LEAK' warnings ...i have been with a captain who advised me to select the respective eng bleed valve off..that day was a right wing leak..so eng bleed #2 selected off...and while the apu bleed is on...the x-bleed valve selected open .

and then he told to be in this config till airborn...on the other hand,the ecam only in case of wing leak..will advise you to avoid icing conditions...and there is no actions to be done..

some captains try only selecting eng's bleed valves off to cool them down...but i don't really see this troubleshooting right because the engines are off and selecting the eng's bleed off is not going to help...is it ?
