REL Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 Manual page 272 : "The throttle levers should only be moved to the “АВТОМАТ” (Auto) position after the engines have warmed up sufficiently.” What is the sufficient temperature for the engines?
AlphaOneSix Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 (edited) What is the sufficient temperature for the engines? 30*C EDIT to add: The extended version of the manual, which will be available in print form one of these days, includes complete check lists, and this item is in those checklists. Specifically: Wall panel (top) Transmission and engine oil temperature gauges check Wait for oil temperature to reach 30°С Edited February 11, 2009 by AlphaOneSix
Zorrin Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 Does the sim model any ill effects of ignoring such? Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.
Esac_mirmidon Posted February 11, 2009 Posted February 11, 2009 Maybe asking to much. Alpha, did you know if the printed manual have perfomance charts about rate of climb, range, speeds vs altittude, parameter curves, engine limitation charts, etc? " You must think in russian.."

AlphaOneSix Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Does the sim model any ill effects of ignoring such? Not that I'm aware of. I doubt it, since this wold be something that causes long term problems, and the game doesn't have persistent airframes that remember their abuse over time. Maybe asking to much. Alpha, did you know if the printed manual have perfomance charts about rate of climb, range, speeds vs altittude, parameter curves, engine limitation charts, etc? There are no power charts per se. The is a list of operating limitations which includes things like airspeeds, engine temps, etc., but no charts really except for a vortex ring safety zone chart and a critical airspeed over altitude chart for single engine failures.
ARM505 Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Is there going to be any other way of getting these other than via the printed manual? Not to sound like a cheapskate or anything, and I suppose it's worthwhile to have a degree of exclusivity for those ordering the manuals (another path to earn some cash for ED, a good thing).
Esac_mirmidon Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Thanks Alpha. Really any flight manual for this kind of simulation isn´t complete without perfomance data curves. Anyway, i will appreciate the extra info of the printed manual. " You must think in russian.."
