Study Notes
Vent Air Supply
- Vent air can be supplied through the heater unit, ram air, or a fan.
- Ram air or fan air is delivered through the upper vent ducts.
- The upper vent system has an inlet on the leading edge of the vertical stabilizer or the left side of the aft fuselage.
- The location of the inlet depends on the serial number.
