intelfx Posted September 13, 2020 Report Posted September 13, 2020 (edited) Greetings. This is just a "curiosity" post really. So I've been messing around with the TBM900, trying to see just how badly I can wear it out if I'm super sloppy with everything (but not to the point of crashing). After a couple of tail strikes with repairs, the cabin pressure vessel has degraded to a "deathtrap" condition (which got a chuckle out of me ;)), but I'm too bored to do even more tailstrikes to see where it gets next. So: seeing as the pressure vessel becomes "worn" or "very worn" after just one repair, skipping the "good" condition completely, what exactly happens when the pressure vessel degrades? what is the worst possible condition? Can it break completely (become irreparable)? Edited September 13, 2020 by intelfx Quote
Goran_M Posted September 13, 2020 Report Posted September 13, 2020 The cabin won't pressurize, as indicated on the MFD, and you'll get hypoxia at higher altitudes. The screen will slowly turn black. Quote

Goran_M Posted September 14, 2020 Report Posted September 14, 2020 (edited) It could definitely go at any time. Once it does, you'll need to use the oxygen mask, and once on the ground, you'll need to create a new airframe. Edited September 14, 2020 by Goran_M 1 Quote
intelfx Posted September 14, 2020 Author Report Posted September 14, 2020 Ah, now it's clear. Thanks. Quote
Cassio Posted October 25, 2020 Report Posted October 25, 2020 (edited) @Goran_M I'm using version 1.1.12 and facing issues with pressurization system. the system is not working, looking to the picture below It seems the cabin rate climb in the same way as Vertical speed and cabin doesn't pressurize. I did a fresh install, created a new airframe (many times) but none of this actions worked. Log.txt Edited October 25, 2020 by Cassio Quote
Goran_M Posted October 25, 2020 Report Posted October 25, 2020 Did you check your LFE (Landing Field Elevation) before takeoff? Did you hit the tail on the ground at any point? (Check the maintenance Manager for a damaged Pressure Vessel.) Quote
Cassio Posted October 26, 2020 Report Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Sure. As you can see in the picture the LFE is set (57ft-destination elevation altitude)such as the altitude of 1500ft AGL ((traffic pattern) in the destination. I didn't hit the tail on the ground. There is no alert in maintenance manager for any system or part. I created new airframe, tried a brand new installation but none of those actions worked, unfortunately.

I had to do a complete uninstall to make it work. After deleting TBM900 folder on OUTPUT x plane folder. appreciate your availability, Goran! Quote
