    If the APU fire warning system is not operating properly you may run the APU.

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    If the APU fire warning system is not operating properly, it is not safe to run the APU. The fire warning system is designed to detect any potential fire in the APU and alert the pilot. Without a functioning fire warning system, the pilot would not be aware of any fire hazard, increasing the risk of an APU fire going undetected and potentially causing a catastrophic event. Therefore, it is important to ensure that the APU fire warning system is working properly before running the APU.
