Across
  1. 5. Most dangerous carb icing condition range (below 21°C and high __)
  2. 6. Distributes power from alternator and battery
  3. 7. Device that provides a rapid spark during engine start-up by accelerating the magneto
  4. 9. Dissipates static charge built up in flight
  5. 14. High voltage component that creates the spark in the cylinder
  6. 15. Prevents knocking; higher rating allows more compression
  7. 16. Wires that connect airframe parts to prevent static sparking
  8. 17. Fuel system using pumps for low or distant tanks
  9. 18. Independent ignition systems; left and right
  10. 20. Independent of battery; engine keeps running even if master is off
  11. 22. Fuel system relying on height difference (no pump needed)
Down
  1. 1. Switch with ALT and BAT halves
  2. 2. Device that collapses the primary circuit to induce high voltage
  3. 3. Additive that boosts compression resistance in AVGAS
  4. 4. Protects circuits; can be reset once by pilot
  5. 8. Build-up on spark plugs from prolonged low RPM
  6. 10. Rotates to deliver timed voltage pulses to spark plugs
  7. 11. Carb temperature drop due to venturi and fuel vaporization
  8. 12. Measures alternator output; reads zero on failure
  9. 13. Fuel tank type that is flexible and removable
  10. 19. Ice that forms in venturi and throttle valve area
  11. 21. Magneto position for normal dual operation
