Preheating . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . PERFORMED
Interior – The cabin and cockpit should be preheated for
crew and passenger comfort and also for proper operation
of the instruments.
Engines – The engines should be preheated prior to starting
when the engines have been cold soaked at temperatures
below -40°F (-40°C). Two 850 watt electric blowers can be
used; one in the inlet and one in outlet duct, or a BT-400
ground heater unit (NSN 4520-00-219-7969) or equivalent is
recommended. If the temperature is between -40°F and
-65°F, direct warm air into each engine for a minimum of 30
minutes prior to engine start.
WARNING: Even small accumulations of ice on the wing
leading edge can cause aerodynamic stall prior to activa-
tion of the stick shaker and/or pusher. These ice accumula-
tions can also cause AOA indicator information to be
unreliable.
