Which component channels conditioned air to outlets at the overhead flight station?

• A. Flight station distribution
• B. Diverter valve
• C. Water separator
• D. Cross-wing manifold

Answer: (A)

In this portion of the air distribution system, conditioned air is delivered from the environmental control system through a network of ducts to various outlets, including those at the cockpit overhead. The specific component that channels conditioned air to the outlets at the overhead flight station is the flight station distribution. It comprises the ducts and pathways that route the conditioned air directly to the cockpit’s overhead vents, providing the pilot and co-pilot with controlled airflow for comfort, defogging, and temperature control.

The diverter valve serves to select among different air paths or zones but doesn’t itself route air to the overhead flight station outlets. The water separator removes moisture from the compressed air, not part of directing air to cockpit outlets. The cross-wing manifold distributes air to multiple zones elsewhere, rather than specifically supplying the overhead flight station outlets.
