Engine Fire Warning Switch

[dr_anthony]

Engine Fire Warning Switch is not simulated in IXEG 737 correctly.

According to FCOM:

Ok. Go to the our aircraft:

Fuel valve closed - OK

Hyd shutoff valve closed - OK

Eng hyd pump LOW PRESS light deactivates - OK

Eng bleed air valve not closed - Fail

Thrust reverser not disabled - Fail

Gen cntl relay not trips off - Fail

All tests have been done in air,  except thrust rev

Your observations are correct - there is an entry in our bug-fix-list to correct these.

For the operation of the aircraft these deficiencies have no effect, however, since with the engine shut down:

• Operating the reverser will have no effect on thrust
• The engine delivers no bleed air, so the position of the bleed valve has no effect (we don´t simulate the possible contamination of the air supply with smoke/fire retardant gas)
• The engine driven generator will drop off-line very soon when N2 decays, so the Control Relay tripping would have no effect

Thanks

Would be correct in 1.3.1?

[Litjan]

Mostly. The reverser will be disabled and the generator breaker will be openend.

The bleed air off is not implemented yet...

Well, for the bleed air I could say that it works - the engine isn´t putting out any pressure anyway so there is no way to really confirm this ;-)
