hubinsc Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 Doing cold starts on the field I have been setting the INS to GND then pushing the STD HDG PB on the AMPCD for the quicker alignment. This has worked fine until the last few days. Now the STD HDG option is gone. Is there something I am missing?

The only thing I can think of is that sometimes, when I mess up with the alignement or I am doing it for a second time, the STD option is not present any more. Sorry, can't help more. Saludos.

rob10 Posted February 9, 2022 Posted February 9, 2022 (edited) Parking brake on? Needs to be to get complete alignment and I think if it's not on you won't get stored heading option Edited February 9, 2022 by rob10
hubinsc Posted February 11, 2022 Author Posted February 11, 2022 Thanks for responding, I found the problem, negligent pre flight on my part. My INS rotary was not set to off when I started the engine. Guess I better read the checklist.

Can't tell, I always put the INS in GRD or CV before switching on the APU and the engines... will check again. Saludos. Saca111
