Fuel Filter Bypass
Recently we've had a high speed abort because of the FILTER BYPASS light illuminating during T/O. (734)
Of course the Captain was called by the boss for a coffee no biscuits meeting.
Besides that, your thoughts would be appreciated on the following:
is it right to say that if the fuel is really contaminated, the first thing to be clogged will be the booster pumps filter?
That illumination of the Filter Bypass light alone is virtually impossible?
We've had several false cautions last year with this problem, and it always was a faulty indication.
How the dirt in the fuel could block the filter in the MEC without accumulating first at the booster pumps filters?
