11.9 EXTREME CLIMATIC CONDITIONS
11.9.1
DUST
Dust induced into the carburettor air intake system is probably the greatest single cause of
early engine wear. When operating under high dust conditions, the carburettor air filters
should be serviced regularly as outlined in Paragraph 11.7.4. Servicing intervals for
aircraft operating in extreme conditions are at the operator’s discretion.
11.9.2
SEACOAST AND HUMID AREA
In salt water areas, special care should be taken to keep the engine and accessories
clean to prevent oxidisation.
In humid areas, fuel should be checked frequently and drained of condensed moisture.
