Expanded Normal Procedures
Taxi
If Airport Surfaces Are Contaminated with Ice, Wet Snow or
Slush:
Engines. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .START BOTH FOR TAXI
Use the brakes to build up the temperature of the disks to
prevent them from freezing when the aircraft is stopped.
Allow greater stopping distances on the ramp and taxiways.
Anti-Ice Systems . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . USE AS REQUIRED
Flaps . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . RETRACTED UNTIL REACHING
THE RUNWAY
Avoid the exhaust wake or propwash of other aircraft and be
alert for loose ice or crusted snow that can be ingested into
the engines.
Many pilots use thrust reversers to aid directional control
while taxiing on slick surfaces. This is very risky and can
easily cause foreign object damage to the engine.
Slick surfaces can cause nosewheel steering to be mar-
ginal. Differential braking can be used to aid directional con-
trol. However, be careful not to make turns too sharp and
damage the steering system. Also, be alert for slick spots
causing the nose wheel to spin, possibly coming 180° out of
alignment with the direction of travel.
