Left eng fail, Right eng fail. Start right engine? B777
Hi there,
B777 type - This is a hypothetical question but just want to hear your thoughts. It involves some system knowledge too. If right eng suffers fire, after fire is extinguished, left eng fails and can't be restarted, will you try to start the right eng considering the urgency?
Side ques:
With regards to the Eng Fire Switch, are those below actions irreversible?
In (normal position, mechanically locked) – unlocks automatically for a fire
warning, or when the FUEL CONTROL switch is in CUTOFF.
Out –
• arms both engine fire extinguishers
• closes the associated engine and spar fuel valves
• closes the associated engine bleed air valves
• trips the associated engine generators off
• shuts off hydraulic fluid to the associated engine–driven hydraulic pump
• depressurizes the associated engine–driven hydraulic pump
• removes power to the thrust reverser isolation valve.
