Wow that brings back memories.

We used to have regular meetings on that Bleed Air annunciator problem.

We were finally convinced by Raytheon-Beech staff at Wichita that the 18psi like (which is the bleed air line) is "not that hot" and the Deferred Maintenance Item was in fact safe. We were worried about a possible wing fire, but they told us that they had experience with "an incident from another airline" where all it caused was "some spotting on the metal inside the wing leading edge."

That may have been you! Was this in 1999 by any chance?
