Title: Re: High Pressure Start

The high pressure (bottle) is only able to start # 3 engine - and you get only one shot.

Lou, you've made my day with this statement. Now I know why I get that "L. H. Bottle" warning, I've used up my one shot.

I'm just wondering why I used the "high press" setting all the time.

Quote:
The normal engine starting sequence is 3, 4, 2, 1.

and I think i didn't get the No.3 engine to move with the "low press" setting in the 1.0 release.
Might be I'm confused now and I have to check this in the simulator again.

Edited:
KB 6204 seemed wrong to me but now I came across the difference to the manuals.
The KB thing describes a start sequence without external sources (and therefor "high pressure" usage) while the manuals describe the far more common ground source based start, using external power and air together with "low pressure".

If you follow the KB 6204 list, you blow off that one shot of the L. H. Bottle and receive the warning, perfectly normal and correct.
