Detonation, etc.
Hi guys,
Just finishing the ATPLs and it's occurred to me that I've never experienced or come across Detonation or Pre-Ignition.
Do any of you learned folks know of any web-site or DVD / Video that demonstrates this? Obviously, it's not something you would want to do purposely so I wondered if anyone knows of a source of info.
The nearest I've come is inadvertently switching the Mags to 'Off' during power checks then back on quickly which resulted in a great big 'bang!' and cloud of smoke, along with a group of onlookers diving for cover. As a matter of interest, what was that?
Cheers,
