Captain_Crow Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Hi, I flew the340 very often. Since yesterdsay the following occurs: Starting both Engines #1 and#2 using External power. After Generators switching on,disconnecting EXT Power. At begin of taxi ENG#2 gets off again without any reason to see. What can be wrong?

Goran_M Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Definitely need more information on this one. Can you go through your entire start procedure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Crow Posted April 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Sorry Goran, yes Here we are: Batt1 + 2 on Connecting External Power via the Menu left Switching EXT Power on on Overhead panel Bringin up both Cond levers to start position Starting number one, waiting until BEEP then to UNF position Starting number two, waiting until BEEP then to UNF position Waiting for generators getting into work Switching all the electronics on plus Standby Pitot and bleeds Flaps first position, Trimm checked Parking brake released, Steering enabled thust to taxi thrust, blocked by the barrier Engines spooling up, but Eng 2 spools down after spooling up to getting off.. Never had this before, changed nothing in the sim. I have to do a research what this can be. Curious. Best Steffen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran_M Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 If it happens again, can you please post your Log.txt file and GizmoLog.txt files immediately after shutting down the sim and make sure you shut it down with the Saab loaded. Both files are found in your X-Plane root folder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YQRninja Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I'm no expert on the saab, so I will wait for others more qualified. However... Shouldn't the Cond levers be advanced to MAX before Taxi? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goran_M Posted April 25, 2018 Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 I thought about this as well, but it's only engine 2 that is doing this. The log files will tell us everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain_Crow Posted April 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2018 Guys, it is how it is: It works again. No idea why. Can´t reproduce the failure/mistake, sorry. But thank you all for jumping in and try to help!! Best Steff 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
