Hi guys

Thanks for the reply; well it is a procedure written by the local Aviation Regulator (Eurocopter Malaysia) for performing a Certificate of Airworthiness on EC135T2+

This procedure say: Condition,engine to be tested in "flight, other to "idle"

I guess it is for injector check; but TeeS, I think you made the right point about the twist grip should be turned to "min" , stabilized, then Eng selector to Off

When I read the procedure again I think the mistake was made as follows in writing up the procedure:

Line 6 says Turn twist grip to Neutral (on my collective T2+, it means back to center mark or full fuel flow)

It should really say :turn twist grip to "minimum" to ensure no flame out?
Then switch engine selector to off?

I don't know; they have about 10-15 EC 135 P2 here, and nobody has ever said anything negative about the procedure;maybe I need to check the markings on the collective of a P2 powered 135?
