A gas turbine engine (20) is provided having a nacelle (80) and a compressor section (24) constructed and arranged to generate hot air. An anti-icing system is constructed and arranged to discharge the hot air from the compressor section (24) to the nacelle (80). An anti-icing valve (88) is positioned in the anti-icing system and constructed and arranged to control a flow of the hot air from the compressor section (24) to the nacelle (80). The anti-icing valve (88) includes a partially open position (154) to constrict a flow of the hot air from the compressor section (24) to the nacelle (80).
