Turboprop PT6 general questions

[rigpiggy]

#1 the check valves on the min flow circuit pressurise/open around 12% n1 higher rpm gives a bigger initial spurt due to higher pressure

#2 it is an electrical limitation to have a higher n1 for power/cooling cl to max should meet that minimum.many cl's rigging is off not meeting min N1 for hi draw generator ops. Easier to just push up rather than get it rerigged
#3 pulling TO below are idle with engine off is good way to bend linkages in the beta block setup. Prop levers are fine.
#4. Cond lever not in max rpm during reverse operations. The main reason for this is during stol applications to reduce the time for beta reverse application. Been a while, but if I remember it
The overspend governs 106% in forward range and 96% in reverse.

5.wrt the runup. You push up throttle lever to 2000 , and reset speeder spring on the HOG from 106%(2120?) To about 1835. Then check that the main prop gov is actually attached to the prop levers by bringing the prop levers back and governing according. A check of manual feather is required before each flight. I would start the turn and at idle feather, also nice not to blast the terminal/handler
