Explain boost pump logic
Two conditions must be met: pump switch must be armed and must have low pressure in that sides fuel feed manifold; if both are met, then the pump will turn on and if one is on, they are both on. All logic for one pump must be met. If half the logic is met for one and the other half is met for the other pump, they will not turn on.
How long is APR armed for and how long will it be engaged after firing?
Armed for 5 minutes and will be engaged for an additional 5 minutes after firing.
How much will APR boost N1?
2% above the current thrust setting.
If you take off reduced thrust, APR will NOT increase thrust to max allowable. APR will only increase thrust to 2% above the reduced thrust setting.
When is N1 speed control engaged?
Engine speed switches must be on and N1 above 79%
N2 speed control is always available. Below 79% N1, N2 speed control is in use.
