on a t-prop the only thing that makes sense to the airplane is to match torques, so there's no rudder trim required. I can't understand why a pilot wants to match ff or temps - can you shed any light on that?
Yup, going a long way in the electra, great FF gauges, rubbish fuel Quantity gauges, fly a constant fuel flow and thus multiply FF by 4 to get burn (or more likely multiply by 3 on the electra
)
Or more normally,
set a constant turbine inlet temperature (TIT) as that means each engine is performing to a known datum (well theory anyhow)
IFAIR 971C for T/O , 932, Reduced temp TO, 895 climb. As the temp is the most important limit it made sense to be focusing more on that when we were likely to bust it.
