Interesting.
I will ask the company concerned for their thoughts.
I note that certification testing involves (LOTS) less ground idle time???
Do they specifically wait for Eng / Xmon temperature stabilisation on shut down, or not?
By Gees???
There are no comments re the maneuvres on the certification test regime????????
There are no comments on the extraordinary high loads imposed upon the M/R spindle bearings by ab-initio training????????????
note. Auto RPM exceedance is often done even by experienced instructors who seem to think it fair game to have high auto RPM set on their machines.
By Gees again!
HIGH AUTO RPM ALWAYS GIVES HIGH ROD UPON IMPACT.
NUFF SAID.
There are no comments on the extraordinary high power fluctuations imposed by very gusty wind conditions with "Governor" selected "ON".
I think we will find many more holes the size of floodgates as we look into the report.
However ATSB must be complimented for pursuing the argument and putting to bed a lot of unecessary criticism of what is a very good product.
We in the world of product use will still have criticism's, I hope Frank can handle it.
