Q2 Whatis the difference between anti-ice and de-icing in aircraft? A2 Rebecca Williams, Experience inAviation16h Anti-ice and de-icing are two different methodsof ice protection for aircraft. Theyhave different purposes and applications, depending on the type and location ofthe ice. Anti-ice is a method that prevents ice fromforming on the aircraft surfaces, such asthe wings, the engine intakes, the propellers, or the windows. Anti-ice systemsare usually activated before entering icing conditions, which are areas wherethe temperature and humidity are favorable for ice formation. Anti-ice systemscan be either passive or active. Passive systems use special coatings or shapesthat reduce the adhesion or accumulation of ice. Active systems use heat,electricity, or chemicals to prevent ice from forming or sticking. De-icing is a method that removes ice that hasalready formed on the aircraft surfaces. De-icing systems are usually activatedafter detecting or observing ice on the aircraft. De-icing systems can also beeither passive or active. Passive systems use aerodynamic forces or vibrationsto shed the ice from the surfaces. Active systems use heat, electricity,chemicals, or mechanical devices to melt or break the ice and remove it fromthe surfaces. The maindifference between anti-ice and de-icing is that anti-ice prevents ice fromforming, while de-icing removes ice after it forms. Anti-icesystems are more effective and efficient than de-icing systems,as they avoid the negative effects of ice on the aircraft, such as increaseddrag, reduced lift, altered aerodynamics, impaired visibility, or enginefailure. Anti-ice systems are also more complex and costly than de-icingsystems, as they require more energy and maintenance. Some aircraft use acombination of both methods to achieve optimal ice protection. Q3 Whydon’t male mosquitoes drink blood? A3 Ken Saladin,CEO Ken's College ofArcane Knowledge (2016–present)13h The onlypurpose served by the blood meal is maturation of the female mosquito’s ovariesand eggs.

Power/ position? Or doyou really, truly give a damn? A5 Dr. Rutuja T,Intern at MGM MedicalCollege and Hospital, Navi Mumbai (2023–present)Fri I won’t lie; my motivation wasn’t from one source! The firsttime someone asked me what do you want to become, as a two year old, I lookedat my dentist who pulled out my premolars, and blabbered out ‘I’ll become adoctor one day, and will pull your teeth out too!’. Other day;it was when I got a doctor set as a 7 year old; with a plastic stethoscope, anda fake prescription pads, all I wanted to do was stab people with syringes asan adult; for sure! 😂 Yet another motivation was looking at my cousinsbecoming doctors; when I was barely 9–10,hearing them share their life stories of patients, professors, medical cases,ragging, hostel life, I somehow somewhere knew this was something I am going todo. As a late teenager, I grabbed the best scholarship inAakash and I knew there’s no looking back from there, Idropped out maths (duh!); but physics had my back for all the three years tobug me enough, but I did not want to do anything else, it’s like when you know;you just know! Money, prestige and power are hoax. Trust me;Indian doctors have nothing. You see doctors having alavish life. They are in their late 40s or maybe 50s; don’t look at theirwealth. Look at younger struggling doctors, who get lashed out even by thenursing staff! I’ve seen junior residents in my college, I know how theystruggle to find a syringe for a patient! Giving adamn about the profession is subjective. Love for medicine is reallybitter sweet. It’s like poisoning yourself to death, but with pleasure. What have Inot done during these 5 years, laughed, cried, stressed out, panicked, have hadenough anxiety attacks, felt insecure, felt less about myself! Just what not!So sometimes it’s not about social media image. People have their reasons honestly, to get into thisfield. And no one can pinpoint one. There arepeople who want money, who want power, who want respect, there are some who believe in sacrifices, some believe in hard work, somebelieve in the theoretical subject interests, some believe in the power ofdiagnosis, it’s a matter of deep thought. If you askme, my plain answer would be, because I wanted to?As of now, I’m yet again busyeating small babies, they make me the happiest. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thatha_Patty" group.
