APU

Featured Replies

Does the first officer start it. Or does the pilot flying. I'm talking about during preflight. FO is not starting it.

Hi,If you run the PF (Pre-Flight) and your PWR SRC is set to "APU" then yes the FO should be turning on the APU.If you are running the PF and using EXT/AS or EXT/AC then no.If you skip the PF then no.If using External Power, you are responsible for manually starting the APU if required for engine start.Hope this helps.Regards
