Default RE: Flame out

Hmm, your pump volt seems to be just above idle but your RPM is low (obviously the ECU is telling you) and the temp seems low (which seems to indicate that the Kero isn't burning).

I really dislike the dreaded low RPM off.

It could be so many things...

Like kinked fuel line, leaking fuel pick up IN A TANK, clogged filter or UAT, debris in the fuel line, the clunk getting stuck to the back of the tank.... Bob Wilcox and the rest of Jetcat crew are really good at trying to explain these things but sometimes, its impossible!

Look for things like that which don't necessarily leave bubbles in your lines.

I hope your airplane did well.
