Chapter 1 Flashcards
Wet gross weight w/ 2 pilots
12,800 lbs
Engines
J85/GE/5R (8 Stage axial flow turbojets)
Mil thrust
2,200 lbs
Max thrust
3,300 lbs
Start requirements
Airflow, DC (ignition relays), and AC (ignitors)
Start push arms ignitors for ____
30”
Selecting idle during start _______
Fires main & AB ignitors; adds fuel flow
Selecting MAX with engine off ______
Fires main & AB ignitors; adds fuel flow; resets the 30” timer
Deselecting MAX during engine start _____
Ends the 30” cycle
Another way to extend the 30” cycle?
Press and hold the START button
What gives right engine fuel flow indications and oil pressure during a start?
The static inverter converts DC to AC to power the indicators.
When the throttle is cutoff, what happens to fuel flow?
It is MECHANICALLY cut off at the main fuel control; it is ELECTRICALLY cut off at the fuel shutoff valves
What is the “idle to mil” restriction with respect to time?
It should take longer than 1”
How is the EED wired?
It is wired in parallel to the analog inputs; it is repeatable master and slave, and can also be displayed on the MFD, though for this, one EED must be working (processing inputs)
What powers the EED?
The right essential DC bus; without the motor running, the battery can power it.
