Good video - J41 prop test flight

Featured Replies

Andrew,Sorry, no, I haven't had a chance to do much flying... Thanks for reminding me, though. My first thought is that it might have something to do with the way the flight is loaded (from the default cessna versus directly into the J41 from Create-a-Flight). So when I get a chance, I'd like to explore that avenue first.If I don't respond here by the end of next week, you can ping me via PM.

OK, thanks for the feedback Nick... sorry to bump it, I was just wondering about this, but I didn't want to come across as impatient or such... Look forward to hearing from you in due course...For your info, I load the Cessna default at the airport of choice, then switch to the JS41...I got out of the habit of selecting the plane of choice in the initial menu years ago in FS9, it hardly ever worked for me...Andrew

air-start : the way I proceed step by step Let's say for example the right engine is suddenly out of service in cruise flight, both throttles set to 93%, conditions levers set to 98% and prop sync switch set to ON.As soon as right engine has failed :- prop sync switch is set to OFF- left condition lever is moved full forward- left throttle lever is moved full forward- right condition lever is moved to the feather/shut-off position- right throttle lever is moved to idle positionThe right engine EGT is quickly dropping down below 200°C and from the spot outside view you can see the right engine is shut off and the prop blades are steady set to feather. Thrust, power an the rest are supplied by the left engine and you are now ready for a prop-windmilling air start. From the AOM "An electrically operated unfeather pump is supplied for each propeller. This allows the propeller blades to be moved from the feathered position to a blade pitch angle where a propeller-windmilling air start can be done"- right unfeather pump is activated. Check from the spot outside view the blades are moving to the unfeather position- both condition levers are moved full forward (CTRL+F4 to avoid to move them inadvertently to taxi position...)- both throttle levers are moved full forward (F4)- start master switch is set to AIR- right stby pump is set to ON- right engine START switch depressedthe right engine should start... check the IES : EGT, FF, RPM and torque and, when everything is back to normal :- right stby pump is set to OFF- proceed engines & rpm cruise settings + prop sync ON
