Which data point does the FSC monitor for fuel temperature?

• A. Fuel temperature in the Right wing tank
• B. Cabin temperature
• C. Outside air temperature
• D. Fuel temperature in the Left wing tank

Answer: (A)

Fuel temperature data is used to manage fuel properties that affect engine performance and safety, such as fuel density and the operation of any fuel heating or cooling systems. The FSC gathers this information from the tank that feeds the engines, which in this setup is the right wing tank. That’s why the fuel temperature in the right wing tank is the data point the FSC monitors. Environmental readings like cabin temperature or outside air temperature aren’t used for fuel-temperature management, and although there can be sensors in other tanks, the right wing tank’s fuel temperature is the one the FSC relies on here.
