Well, I use a headset to listen to the cockpit ambient sounds and Vatsim ATC, but how do you listen to the discord with the other pilot? Earplug underneath the headset with dangling mic? Or another clever set up?
Probably stupid question, how to talk to one another in shared cockpit? We were now using another communication channel, but of course I could not hear the cockpit sounds. How can you talk, and still be 'in' the cockpit?
Hi Oisin, checked with the pilots, we have the white box when you preselect local QNH whilst still being in STD QNE. So it could be programmed for completeness, yes
In a long conversation with BBA yesterday we learned that BBA advises to equalize left and right mains BEFORE departure using the L (usually) to AUX pumps, even if the difference is lower that the limit of 400 lbs. This in order to avoid CAS fuel imbalance messages after departure which could be triggered by banking and 'sloshing' in the tanks
Thanks, I flew the Chally a couple of hundred hours and never refilled. Lately I started getting occasionally high oil temperatures, and than on yesterday's flight warning oil pressure below 25psi. Time to take action!
Amazing that Hotstart has modelled this oil consumption...
Not there yet - replenishment tank empty, engines nowhere near full. How can I fill the replenishment tank?
Edit - Hotstart thought even about that! Btw to fill the tank, click on the cap on the tank on the approx 1 o'clock position
13 quarts in all - will avoid the maintenance dept for a while...
