    The Poh for O says if you have fire while starting, continue to crank, and if it starts, continue to run it for a few minutes and then inspect for damage. That sounds like they expect damages to be limited. Hopefully that will turn out to be the case with yours.

    Then how do you call the one where you get to reuse the underwear?

    All you need is a nutcase who insists on succeeding despite the unfavorable odds. There are not many of them around. Occasionally one appears, and the result is an Austro or ..... G100UL.

    If it feels difficult pushing up 30 degrees, it's probably the envelope protection trying to push the nose down to normal attitude

    I have a feeling you didn't mean in one flight, but if you did, where do I send you the congratulatory case of beer?

    Funny story: you need to know your systems. I didn't know that the overhead vents don't pass through the heat exchanger. That ignorance was rewarded with a memorable flight

    The problem with these threads is that I tend to discover that I actually don't know anything...:) When flight planning, do you actually look at OAT to figure out what climb performance you can expect at flight levels? Or do you reliably see the same performance at FL200? Or is the performance difference not significant for flight planning purposes?

    Like the jet operating BA38?

    There are two factors that would be an improvement I think. First is that, an algorithm would pick up a condition sooner than an eye scan would, and offer a suggestion quicker than a trained person can reason out the situation. Second, the annunciator could be made to be drastically different from normal display. Think about the old school warning light. Quite effective when it comes on, compared to picking up changes in a somewhat busy display.

    We have nice engine monitors. What is preventing the software from annunciating abnormal conditions? Is it regulation or lack of demand/ROI?

    I'm prepared to bet a quart of oil that you haven't encountered these in your flying

    Neat, thanks! have to go read the manuals again.
  13. hais
    Thanks!

    Looking at your post-it makes me wish: wouldn't it be nice if the g3x had "power setting bugs"?

    Haven't seen these before with this wavy pattern. Whole area overcast like this. 1. Are they stratus? 2. Would you say they are benign to fly into?

    It sure must cost a pretty penny to operate Jepp. Why would Boeing otherwise sell a unit that has high margins? I'm not defending the prices...just wondering whether it's truly expensive to maintain the data.

    Reminds me of this: someone remarked that they should change the safety video in airliners from "in the unlikely event of water landing..." to "in the unlikely event you survive a water landing...."

    And with the lighter airplane, I can slam the brakes harder, right?
  19. hais
    Thanks for the heads up

    In case you haven't yet, you might find this useful: https://youtu.be/X-tKyiUZ3ts?feature=shared

    Did you perceive any reduction in fatigue after a long flight due to increased smoothness? That would be valuable. First time I flew a Continental, I was confident my teeth would fall off before I complete one pattern

    Yes. No issues with CHTs, no problem staying around 380F. But we did suffer an inexplicable detonation.
  23. hais
    It does? Ours is set at 24, when I asked, the shop said that's what TCM requires, so we left it at that.

    EFBs can handle that easily. The language is fairly standard, so quite trivial to let the user set priorities and filters. GP already has a useful feature for runways. There's also a graphical notam feature. When I file IFR, I filter out obstacle NOTAMs as an example.

    Please allow me to go on a tangent. Suppose the advisory system could give you actionable information rather than just display raw data or alarm (like, "set FF to X"). Would that be: 1. Useful 2. Ever pass certification 3. Pass lawyer/insurance approvals?
