Captions on HYD panel

[Guest lbb]

Me again :-)Going through the tutorial I'm at the HYD panel. It seems to me that the captions for the Green and Blue system pumps are wrong in that "off" should read "auto", as indicated both by the text in the tutorial and the tool tips.Leo Bakker

Only the Yellow system has an auto selection on the real aircraft. Cheers,JohnBoeing 727/737 & Lockheed C-130/L-100 Mechanichttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg

OK, thanks for the info. Although that does lead me to the question why you have to switch it from shut to off first and then later to on ...Intriguing aircraft, to say the least :-)Leo Bakker

Leo,The Hydraulics should never have to be switched to shut unless for maintenance or inflight abnormal procedures. The normal position for starting is Green/Blue off and yellow Auto. The Green and Blue switches are turned to On after the first engine is started.Cheers,JohnBoeing 727/737 & Lockheed C-130/L-100 Mechanichttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/ng_driver.jpg
