Question: 1 / 1030

Are periodic checks of the aircraft's fuel tank sumps and system strainers necessary even if the aircraft is fueled from an uncontaminated source?

No, it's not required

Yes, due to the possibility of contamination from other sources

It is important to perform periodic checks of the aircraft's fuel tank sumps and system strainers regardless of the source of fuel because there is always a possibility of contamination from external sources. Even if the fuel comes from a trusted and uncontaminated source, there is still a chance that other factors such as debris or water could enter the fuel system. Therefore, regular checks are necessary to ensure the safety and proper functioning of the aircraft. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as they do not address the potential risks of contamination from external sources and suggest that checks are not necessary, which is not true.
