B1900D-UE # of static wicks and locat.

[ProPilot5]

Looking for total number of static wicks for the aircraft and their locations.

Thanks.

 

[FlynSuperD]

19

2 each winglet, 3 each aileron, 3 each side of elevator, 1 each tailet and one above tail position light

 

[jbud]

one on each of the strakes?????

 

[FlynSuperD]

There is a spot for one on each strake but they are removed on our aircraft.

 

[cpt190]

Ours have 23...2 on each winglet, 3 on each aileron, 1 on each strake, 5 on each area of the elevator and horizontal stab, and one straight back off of the upper tailcone.

 

[CitationLover]

i think we have 29. one can be missing from each control surface. can't quite recall if this includes the radar dish stripes.

No of Static Wicks

WHY?
I have 1800 hours in the 1900 and I have no freaking idea without looking it up, if one is missing you will notice a fitting with nothing sticking out of it during the pre-flight. Otherwise look it up in the book.

WHY?

I was thinking the same thing...

Why not???

Maybe they need it for a project for school or something along those lines, but even if not, what is wrong with knowing some trivial fact about the airplane you fly. I'm guessing if someone asked you what model of PT6 your plane has you would know it's a -67D, but is it really that important?

I think that's called the "I'm too 'freaking' cool to know that sydrome"

(just throwing some attitude around too)

 

[Mungusaurus]

Too freakin cool to know!

Yeah thats it.

I think it's called.... "You're too freaking ANAL."

67-D

I need to know that because the company I work for flies C and D model 1900's and during 6 month checks it may come up on an oral. If some check airman asked me how many static wicks were on the D, i'd ask him the question right back! I almost guarentee they wouldnt know.
Chper, you get a date yet?
Thanx, Mung.

 

[chperplt]

Not yet... Soon I hope. Cindy is getting mad that I'm playing Blackjack and Poker all the time.

Exactly my point!

I can't think of anything useful that can be derived from knowing the exact model number of your engine....besides knowing it for an oral. Someone might need to know the number of static wicks for some reason or another, just like you need to know the useless information of your engine's model number.

Model #

Jbud, there is a horsepower difference between the 65c and 67d 1100 compared to 1279. Knowing the model # makes sure you know which aircraft you are talking about in regard to limitations, system numbers (blade angles and governor numbers etc.)
And yes there is probably a difference in the # of static wicks but a horsepower etc. difference seems a tad more important than a piece of carbon filled plastic. Hey how many bolts hold the wing on that C-150 youve been flying?

 

[jbud]

Hey how many bolts hold the wing on that C-150 youve been flying?

I can't remember...I've since upgraded to the C-152.

(That's the plane with the Teledyne-Continental-O-200A-45C-5 engine...I had to memorize that for my oral)


BTW...I'm just playing around with you....enjoy your weekend!!!

A bucket full.

 

[AirMiddieFO]

another oral question on shp for the D

what is the SHP for:

takeoff?
max cont?
max climb?
normal cruise?

 

[chperplt]

and another


What is the function of the Normal/Override switch located next to the 1/2 (1 or 2) encoder switch?

and another

How do you tell if the 1/2 encoder switch is working off of the proper encoder?

and another

What is the function of the Yaw left/right switch located on the top right of the center console?

 

[$$$4nothin]

C-150 bolts

6 bolts hold on each wing of a C-150.. For all of you who can add. Thats a total of twelve. And who cares how many stupid ass static wicks any airplane has, as long as you dont get shocked when you get out of the airplane.
