While starting the engine, you notice your RPM stagnating at 45%, yet your EGT slowly continues to rise after the GTS has shut down. These are indications of a?
Hung Start
In flight, the MASTER ALERT begins flashing, the aural town sounds, and the EGT/RPM warning light illuminates. You observe that EGT is 550 degrees C, and rpm is 108 percent. What condition exists?
Engine overspeed.
In normal flight the caution tone sounds, the MASTER ALERT light flashes, and the HYD light is on. HYD 1 pressure shows 600 psi. HYD 2 is cycling between 2,500 and 3,000 psi. What malfunction has most likely occurred?
HYD 1 and HYD 2 failure (RAT operating).
