RE: jetcat start problems
matt, it fires right up on the propnae, propane is not the problem, ( i think )
there were two of us jet jocks flying today, i compared my start up to his, ( same turbine, p-80)
his electric motor spools up and stays running thru the cycle.
mine starts to spool up, propane fires, the the electric motor stops spooling to almost a dead stop, for about 2 or 3 seconds, then spools back up and fires on the kero,
the p-80 does fire up and run, but it takes longer, much longer to get it up on kero,
now the weather has been very hot and muggy here the past week, 93 today, and humidity very high, so muggy and hazy all day, it looked like we were in the fog, but again, larry fired his up and it ran fine
