BigMike,

Can see what you mean, had some problems with the EDU's on the 'Power' in the past, the first one just went blank so the other went to reversionry, interesting to start because now there is no start page so it's faith in the Fadec, one off flight only guv.

The second one was fuel indications, won't bore you with the whole story but the engineers were looking forward to getting in to the tank's but every time a pilot came back there was a different story on the indications so they swapped the screens as they are identical which sorted that out, of course this now involved $30,000 for an exchange screen (again) if I remember rightly.

The above is just a thought but those indications are strange because of the difference in cautionary range, in theory the test page goes well then it works, hmm.

The main transmission indications in the pictures show the pressure going down as the temp goes up which seems to be right, note that all of the Powers and the few Grands I have flown seem to remain in the very bottom of the cautionary range when up to temp, used to complain about it and the engineers would try something new every time till they had run out of thought's, seems that is the way it is.
