Hi,
my apologies if this question would be a better fit in the technical questions...
How does one inspect Engine #2 on Dassault Three Holers like the 50/900/7x - i think about the visual preflight. Is there a camera inside to ensure that there's not a young bird familiy in there that has founded a new home in there over night? :-)
Don't hit me - I'm really looking for an answer on that question for quite a time. I've found information on some de icing companies that won't guarantee the middle engine's absence of ice, information on aerodynamics of the s-duct etc. - but nothing clear about pre flight inspection.
Kind regards,
Peter
PS: Must be a nuisance to cover the engine intake for longer parking periods etc, too?
PPS: I don't want to bash Dassault - in contrary, I'm quite convinced of the way Falcon Drivers talk about their birds here!
