AOM Alert Operations Bulletin (AOB) No. 23 regarding “Ruptured de- ice boots” implemented in AFM. General information from AOB: There has been reported events with ruptured de- ice boots on the horizontal tail. Recently an event with a ruptured de- ice boot resulted in slight vibrations starting at a speed of approximately 220 KIAS, with a gradual increase in vibrations with decreasing speed. With flap 15 selected, a further increase in vibrations was noted. Selection of flap 20 resulted in a repetitive nose down pitch every 3 to 4 seconds together with rumbling and shaking of the flight controls. The nose down pitch was counteracted by pilot input and a go- around was initiated. The aircraft made a flap- less (flap 0) landing with only slight vibrations felt in the flight controls. The following recommendation from AOB added in Abnormal Procedure: Should a TIMER master caution together with the STAB light not illuminating - indicating a faulty STAB boot system - be experienced during flight, the landing shall be performed as a flap 0 landing. 4- 6 000 Page shift. 6- 2.11 000 A parenthesis added to clarify that the demonstrated crosswind values include gust.

### AIRSPEEDS (cont’d) MINIMUM AIRSPEEDS FOR ICING CONDITIONS The minimum airspeeds below must be used for operation in icing conditions and, with Mod. No. 3529 installed (improved stall warning system) whenever the blue ICE SPD status light is illuminated. Definitions VCLEAN = Final climb speed in accordance with Final Climb charts in section 6- 4. Maneuvering = A bank angle in excess of 15 degrees in a coordinated turn.
General 10 knots shall be added to the speeds below for maneuvering with bank angles between 15 and 30 degrees. At higher bank angles, increase speed by 10 knots for each 10 degrees of bank above 30. For all- engines operating climb below minimum sector altitude (MSA): Maintain a minimum speed of “Enroute Climb Speed - with residual airframe and propeller ice” (V CLEAN +15) after transitioning to the Enroute Climb configuration (after initial power reduction from Take- off power). For all- engines operating climb above minimum sector altitude (MSA), cruise, descent, holding and approach: Flaps 0 160 KIAS

............ Flaps 7 150 KIAS

............ Flaps 15 145 KIAS

............ Flaps 20 140 KIAS

............ Flaps 35 130 KIAS

............ If a lower airspeed must be used to exit the icing conditions, “Enroute Climb Speed - with residual airframe and propeller ice” (VCLEAN +15) may also be used for flaps 0 climb. For single- engine climb after transitioning to the Enroute Climb configuration (after initial power reduction from Take- off power) and for driftdown: Flaps 0 “Enroute Climb Speed - with residual airframe and propeller ice” (VCLEAN +15).

............ For final approach: V REF +10 Increase landing distance for the 10- knot speed increment applied to the reference speed in accordance with the performance data in Section 6 of this manual. For missed approach/go- around: Maintain a minimum speed of “Approach Climb Speed - with residual airframe and propeller ice” until above minimum sector altitude (MSA), then the speeds specified above.

### SYSTEMS (cont’d) Vertical Navigation The vertical guidance mode of the VNI 80 A, if installed, is not certified for use as a primary source for vertical navigation. Cargo Fire The cargo compartment is classified as a Class C cargo compartment and has been demonstrated to provide the following minimum fire protection duration, based on cargo compartment configuration and fire protection system installation:

−70 min for aircraft with lavatory aft and Mod. No. 1149 incorporated (2 bottles)

−60 min for aircraft with lavatory forward and Mod. No.1149 incorporated (2 bottles)

−35 min for all other aircraft. Attitude/Heading Reference System During initialization on ground the aircraft must not be moved. Take
− off is not permitted:

− until 2 minutes after initialization is completed

−if attitude difference between the attitude displayed on both EFIS EADIs and the standby attitude indicator is

3 degrees or more (bank and pitch)

− if the heading on the compass card is slewing away from the aircraft heading. Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) Navigation is not to be predicated on the use of the Terrain (or Obstacle) Awareness Display. NOTE The Terrain Awareness Display is intended to serve as a situational awareness tool only. It does not have the integrity, accuracy or fidelity on which to solely base decisions for terrain or obstacle avoidance.To avoid giving nuisance alerts, the predictive TAWS functions must be inhibited by selecting the TERR INHIBIT button when within 15 nm of take
− off, approach or landing at an airport that is not included in the airport database. Refer to Honeywell document 060
− 4326
− 000 for airports contained in the installed TAWS Terrain Database. The TAWS Pilot’s Guide (060
− 4314
− 000, dated April 2000, or later version) or equivalent TAWS description (e.g. AOM description) shall be carried on board and be immediately available to the crew.

### RUDDER LIMITER LIGHT ON Reduce speed until light goes out but not below 140 kts. If light still is ON at 140 kts, select the rudder limiter switch to OVERRIDE. Max speed with the rudder limiter in OVERRIDE is 180 KIAS. Avoid large rudder deflections above 150 KIAS. If rudder limiter light is on below 140 KIAS, use if possible a runway with less than 10 kts crosswind for landing. 

### HYDRAULIC WARNING Switch off the hydraulic pump.

− If both emergency and main pressures are low, extend the landing gear and land at the nearest suitable airport. Leave flaps in present position; use hand pump if brake pressure needs to be restored. WITH MOD No. 1463 installed:

− If only emergency pressure is low, use hand pump for landing gear, flap and brake operation.

− If only main pressure is low, set the hydraulic pump to OVERRIDE; if main pressure increases, switch between OVERRIDE and OFF so as to maintain pressure. If there is no increase in pressure during override, switch off the pump and use hand pump for landing gear, flap and brake operation.

− If main pressure and hydraulic quantity are low, pull emergency landing gear handle for gear extension. Leave flaps in present position and use hand pump if brake pressure needs to be restored.

− If all pressures are normal, use hand pump for landing gear, flap and brake operation. WITHOUT MOD No. 1463 installed:

− If only emergency pressure is low, extend the landing gear and land at the nearest suitable airport. Leave flaps in present position; use hand pump if brake pressure needs to be restored. 

### AC GENERATOR FAULT Try to reset the generator once. If it will not reset, place the generator switch in OFF/R position and, if possible, exit icing conditions.

### ICE PROTECTION SYSTEM FAULT Reset affected switch once. If the airframe or powerplant de
− icing/anti
− icing system is not restored, exit the icing conditions if possible. During landing with iced − up or inflated de − ice boots, use the following flap settings and speeds: With Mod. No. 1462 installed: Without Mod. No. 1462 installed or with Mod. Nos. 1462 and 1793 installed: Wing fault: Flaps 20 and V REF20 +10 KIAS Flaps 20 and V REF20 +10 KIAS or Flaps 35 and V REF35+ 10 KIAS Stabilizer fault, or Wing and stabilizer fault: Flaps 20 and V REF20+ 10 KIAS Flaps 0 and V REF20+ 30 KIAS During landing with Master Caution (ICE PROT) and TIMER light illuminated and green STAB light not illuminating, use the following flap settings and speeds (required by AD) : With Mod. No. 1462 installed: Without Mod. No. 1462 installed or with Mod. Nos. 1462 and 1793 installed: Flaps 0 and V REF20+ 30 KIAS Flaps 0 and V REF20+ 30 KIAS 

### ALTERNATE EXTENSION OF LANDING GEAR (WITH MOD No. 1463 INSTALLED) Select landing gear down and use the hand pump to extend the landing gear. Hand pump selector must be set to LDG GR position. If an emergency extension has to be made, pull the emergency landing gear handle, then set landing gear handle to DOWN. 

### ANTI − SKID INOPERATIVE CAUTION Use of wheel brakes above 40 knots without anti
− skid will likely result in flat tire(s). Avoid braking until speed has decreased to 40 knots (on long runways, use reverse thrust as far as possible to avoid braking). Review landing performance, as the delayed use of brakes increases the landing distance as for a ”very low friction runway” (aircraft braking  0.05). 

### SINGLE ENGINE LANDING Use Flaps 20 and V REF20+ 10 KIAS. Switch off the bleed system on approach. 

### OIL BYPASS If engine oil pressure is within limits, continue normal operation monitoring oil pressure. EASA Approved Mar 27/15

### CHIP INDICATION Reduce power and monitor engine instruments. If engine parameters deviate from normal, consider shutting down the engine. 

### UNCOMMANDED ENGINE OPERATION NOTE Small TRQ indicator fluctuations (max 3%) in the form of oscillations or minor movements repeatedly are acceptable if the fluctuations disappear after a Power Lever (Ng) or Condition Lever (Np) adjustment. Larger or uncontrollable fluctuations are to be considered as uncommanded engine operation, to be handled as below. Uncommanded engine operation may be caused by sensor failure, electrical control failure or mechanical failure. The failure may create actual variations in power (increase and/or decrease in TRQ, ITT, Ng, PRPM and Fuel Flow). The failure may also be indicated on the cockpit indicators only, without any actual variations in power. Uncommanded engine operation may affect aircraft controllability both in the air and on the ground e.g. during takeoff or during landing, depending on the cause of the condition. In all cases of an UNCOMMANDED ENGINE OPERATION the Torque Motor must be locked out immediately and the Autocoarsen System set to OFF. If actual power variations continue after the Torque Motor has been locked out, consider shutdown of the affected engine. 

### ENGINE TRQ AND/OR TEMP OVER LIMIT Reduce power. If engine does not respond, shut down the engine. 

### PROP RPM OVER LIMIT Set the propeller sync switch to OFF and retard the condition lever. If the propeller does not respond, shut down the engine. 

### AUTOCOARSEN FAULT Set the autocoarsen switch to OFF. Use a minimum V REFof 111 KIAS. NOTE This procedure does not preclude dispatch in accordance with the MMEL. 

### PROPELLER BRAKE (if installed) If hydraulic warning light comes on with the propeller brake engaged, shut down the engine.
