Question 6

Below what voltage or oil temp is a GPU assisted start recommended?

Answer 6

Voltage below 24.5V
or
Oil temp below 5°C

Question 7

Min battery voltage for dispatch

Answer 7

24.2 V

Question 8

What conditions must be met before the COND lever is set to LOW on engine start?

Answer 8

Oil Pressure……………..VERIFY RISE
Ng……………………………12% MINIMUM

Question 9

What is the procedure to follow when starting a cold engine with oil temperature below 5°C?

Answer 9

Set COND Lever to HIGH as soon as Ng is above 12%. Set COND Lever to LOW when Ng is above 51%

Question 10

What is the procedure to follow when starting a warm engine with ITT above 130°C?

Answer 10

After pressing START, wait until ITT reaches 130°C before COND Lever is set to LOW

Question 11

What button do you press and hold to confirm critical takeoff items are configured correctly?

Answer 11

TO/GA Switch

Question 12

What is the initial pitch attitude on rotation?

Answer 12

12.5° UP

Question 13

What is the recommended minimum airspeed for Flaps UP after takeoff?

Answer 13

120 KIAS

Question 14

How long after takeoff must power be reduced to Maximum Climb Power?

Answer 14

5 minutes

Question 15

What is the Typical Climb ITT and how do you determine it?

Answer 15

As torque is reduced below 83.3% at high altitude according to the torque tables, ITT will remain approximately constant during the final climb, establishing a typical climb ITT value for the particular engine being operated.

Question 16

What is the minimum recommended propeller RPM in cruise?

Answer 16

1580

2. TO/GA Switch…………….PRESS & RELEASE
3. POWER Lever…………….MAX T/O POWER
4. Pitch Attitude…………….7.5°
5. Vertical Speed Ind……..POSITIVE
6. Flaps………………………….T/O
7. Landing Gear……………..UP
8. Flaps………………………….AS REQ’D
   (If UP, 120 KIAS min)

Question 18

What are the engine cool-down requirements before shutdown?

Answer 18

a. 60 seconds since touchdown, and
b. 30 seconds since propeller feathered

Question 19

Under what conditions should the IGNITERS be switched ON?

Answer 19

• Operation on wet or contaminated runways.
• Flight in heavy precipitation.
• Flight in moderate or greater turbulence
• During inadvertent icing encounters prior to the INERT SEP being selected to ON.
• When near fuel exhaustion as indicated with a L/R FUEL LOW Caution.

Question 20

Under what conditions should the inertial separators be switched ON?

Answer 20

Prior to flight operation in visible moisture (clouds, rain, snow or ice crystals) with an OAT of +5°C (41°F) or less.

Question 21

What is the recommended max altitude when operating unpressurized and why?

Answer 21

14,000 ft so as to avoid inadvertently deploying the passenger oxygen masks.
