Question 1 — 2.7.5.1.2.1
Once the desired course has been set in the
course selection window, how is the intercept

REDUCTION
a.
Procedure: Sufficiently prior to
descent, adjust controls as necessary
to preheat the windshield and canopy
to aid in defogging during descent from
altitude
b.
Reason: Cockpit fogging/water
collection on the windshield/canopy
can build to the point of creating a
hazard, unless adequate preheating
has been accomplished prior to
reducing engine rpm for descent
