FADEC furnishes information to which system?

FADEC furnishes information to which system?

• A. Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System (EICAS).
• B. Primary flight display.
• C. Total air temperature sensor.
• D. Auto pilot computer.

Answer: (A)

FADEC is the engine’s digital control unit that manages parameters like fuel metering and ignition, and it sends key engine data to the cockpit for monitoring. The system that receives this information and presents it to the crew as engine indications and alerts is the Engine Indicating and Crew Alerting System. This arrangement lets pilots see real-time engine values (N1, N2, EGT, fuel flow, oil pressure, etc.) and receive fault messages. The primary flight display shows flight instruments such as attitude and airspeed, not engine data from FADEC as its primary function. The total air temperature sensor is a separate measurement, not a recipient of FADEC data. The autopilot computer uses flight path and control inputs, not engine indication data, for automated flight control.
