Pressurization issue

[Kjeld]

Hi,

I have about 20 hrs on this great airplane and now out of the blue I have the problem that the cabine pressure doesn´t hold. No crash etc. before.

I tried already:

-Setting manual or FMS LFE in the secondary display

- Switching on and off bleed and pressurization

- Checking Mainanence- nothing broken so far

- Double checking that doors are closed and latched (tried manually and via the Payload menue)

 

Anyone have an idea before I have to give up the Airframe?

 

Best,

 

Kjeld

Found the reason: the emergency air ram was pulled

That's why you follow a check list... You should actually commit the whole checklist to memory. Then you use the checklist as it should be used, as a check to see that each step was done.

I totally agree.

I was following just the simplified G1000 checklists.

This way I was missing this item on the pre flight checklist as well as in the engine startup
