Distant memories of 242 OCU... Derrick Jeans; Pete Fryer (he's still there!); Tom Osbourne and many others. I still have my (1977) groundschool notes and I reckon that I could still teach aircrew prop and engine theory.

98 to 102; torques within a thousand! Flight Idle (reducing); 98.5 - 100.5; torque-rise noted (stops engaged)!

Those big gauges were much better than those small (digital) thingies of today.

Fond memories.

LXX long retired...
