Q

APU; what happens when moving the battery switch to OFF, on the ground or in flight?

A

Ground & Inflight; Causes an automatic shutdown of the APU

24
Q

If the APU does not reach the proper speed with the proper acceleration rate within the time limit of the starter, what happens?

A

The start cycle automatically terminates.

25
Q

A

Automatically after a 60 second delay.

26
Q

Operate the APU for ____ before using it as a bleed air source, in order to extend the service life of the APU.

A

ONE MINUTE!
