Anyone have an opinion on why there is a 10 sec limit on light up during the start?
Hi Outwest.
I was only type rated a few months ago so i stand to be corrected. Im thinking that its a limit with the supply of fuel from the EEC combined with the FMM. Im just scouting my ground school notes but nothing specific at the moment. Ill do some more research.
Our brief is for first eng start.
"Start the clock, check for start legends and light off within 10 seconds & ITT does not exceed 869, Rotors turning by 40% and start disengaged by 49%, any questions or additions"
