    eng start with pm sys

    i have been running an early version of pm sys...probably a year old.

    i installed the latest build and now i cant get engines to start. well, the port one starts and makes the starboard one cut off and then the n1 values blink as i try to start it again and then they both wont start.

    bugger.

    has anyone experienced this?

    David... I'm glad you ask!!! I thought I was losing my mind. Had the same trouble with the #2 engine, went back to an earlier version and all was ok. But I though it was something to do with my sim. Phew!

    hi nick and hi shadow man.

    did you over-write it mate or did you have to re install the earlier virgin?

    you brushing up for worldflight?...we might be struggling to make it. i ditched all my nerdy creepy sim stalkers so now i have no one to fly the plane. if i tied the dog up on the fo seat would that count as a person?

    If you use external elec power for engine start, provided by engines off + parkingbrake on + anti col. light off, the engines will not start. The External Pwr becomes unavail and the busses will go offline. The starter remains on and the EGT rises to about 800 , you will have N2 below 40%.

    If External Power is provided by the instructor station or the APU GENs are online, engines will start normally.

    I am having the same problem with the Airbus and no matter what I do, no go on RH engine. Using the latest version of PMSystems. Anyone else found a workaround without the instructor station etc. ?

    Thomas came up with the answer. In my start procedure the X-Bleed was not mentioned. Now all ok.

    K Guys,

    I am having this issue Now.

    Latest Build of Pm Systems, and Engine #2 will not start no matter what. Ctrl + E in flightsim is the only way to make it go.

    I have tried everything. Once #1 is started, to get #2 to go.

    Is this an issue with the latest build, or is this supposed to happen?>

    Trev

    What is the correct start sequence? Does #2 get started before #1 in the real world?
