Jean tardiff Posted January 22, 2019 Report Share Posted January 22, 2019 When you are starting up your plane from a cold and dark state, do you do this connecting ground power or using the APU. I think most pilots would use ground power. Most videos on youtube seem to do this with APU Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BjornMa Posted January 25, 2019 Report Share Posted January 25, 2019 Depends on airport regulation (and company procedures), due to environmental impact (and fuel usage) from the APU. Most modern airports today have fixed electrical ground power to minimize the use of both the APU and the GPU. You would then start the APU before startup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
