Default Question for PDT guys

In your 300s, do you guys run your bleeds in NORM or MAX?

Flew with a check airman last week and got into a little discussion about it and since the 300s are relatively new to us, wondered what you guys did with them.

Yes, Max in the summer and Norm usually in the winter but some still run it in Max. Wont hurt it to always run it in Max

Good to know. That seemed to be the consensus around here to run it in max all the time (we always run the 200s on max though they're the rotary knob instead of the selector knob), but this check airman had this theory that max could cause some freezing in the packs under the right conditions and lower their effectiveness.

Thanks for the info guys.
