APU Out

Capt's PAQB trick question:

What do you do if your APU won't start at an outlying station with no ground support equipment and you know you won't be able to restart after you shut down?

Answer:

Shut down.

It happened to me once. Maintenance arrived a few hours later with everything that might have been needed to get it started. But by the time the got it running, the entire crew was beyond duty time limitations.

RON!!!

Party!!!

I wonder if it was a mere coincidence that the entire maintenance rescue crew were native either to the province or to the city itself.

(wink, wink)
