July 11, 200421 yr Hi guys,Can someone fire up the Peregrine for me and report back their Annunciator Panel Status?After Engine start up.....I still have 2 annunciatior lights displayed (Ice Protection Selected and Stall Indent)Is this normal? ............and why are they displayed?Thanks for your HelpRegardJohn
July 11, 200421 yr John, that is correct. Everytime I have flown the Hawker the two lights stay on. Turning the anti-icing system on does not turn the lights off. Why this is someone else will have to answer. May be a warning that the systems are working.
July 11, 200421 yr Hi,I gave it a try this afternoon.Used auto-start , I cannot fly this bird , worked OK.NO lights.Everything OK.I think the announciater only points to things which are NOT OK.In flight there should be no warning.Regards
July 11, 200421 yr Hi Leen,Thats strange that Wayne and me are seeing the same lights!!.............I'm curious to what other flyers are seeing?RegardsJohn
July 11, 200421 yr Thanks for that Wayne,Do you also get a fuel annunciator display until you manually switch on the pumps on the overhead panel?RegardsJohn
July 11, 200421 yr Author G'day John,Have you got the B747 in your aircraft folder???I don't think you have :-)I just did a quick flight in the hawker and had NO Lights. If I switched on engine anti-ice then the ENG anti ice lights would illuminate.It is normal practise to have lights ON for operation of engine anti ice/pitot heat and window heat mainly as a confirmation to the pilot that the system is ON and also as a reminder not to forget to turn it OFF.Many a pitot cover has been charred beyond recognition and the pitot head ruined by forgetful pilots (and maintenance guys :-) ).Cheers,Roger @YSSY Cheers,Roger @YSSY Cheers, Roger http://forum.avsim.net/public/styles_images/flags/au.png
July 11, 200421 yr Correct! Ever since Fly!2, you must turn on the Left & Right Fuel Pumps. This turns out the overhead low pressure warnings by the switches and extinguishes the Fuel warning on the Annunciator panel. Randall Rocke
July 11, 200421 yr Hi Roger,Just to confirm I don't have the B747 in my aircraft folder, and I don't understand why these lights remain on, seeing that I have not modified the Hawker in anyway.I'll investigate further.Cheers John
July 11, 200421 yr Hi Randall,I thought I could'nt remember having to do this in Fly2k.Many ThanksJohn
July 12, 200421 yr Author G'day John,The reason that I mentioned the 747 is that on the O/H panel of the Hawker I have 6 ?????? engine start switches showing. :-) Sure only the normal 2 are active but I suspect that a file from Jeans 747 may somehow be also involved removing those icing lights as I do vaguely remember them working as you state. From memory I also think the anti-icing system is/was broken in Fly! II. Another good theory shot down in flames! :-) I tried removing the 747 pods. That got rid of the extra 4 start switches but still I don't get the icing lights. I KNOW I used to get them.Cheers,Roger @YSSY Cheers, Roger http://forum.avsim.net/public/styles_images/flags/au.png
