Robski Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 Had an unusual experience last night. After a flight I taxied to parking. After shutting down I got the Ground Crew to hook up the ground power. I then turned off the battery..... Ground Crew starting repeating "Hey.. What are you doing" and large side panels on the a/c opened up? Anyone seen this before? Is there a point to it? 1.1.10

Snoopy Posted November 28, 2011 Posted November 28, 2011 well one you have to have the battery and inverter on when using ground power. Did you have damage sounds like what happens when you are being repaired. v303d Fighter Group Discord | Virtual 303d Fighter Group Website
Eihort Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 I agree. Shutting everything down starts a repair script. The plane actually lifts a foot or two, all the panels open, and then it drops. If you move at all while hooked up to ground anything or while rearm/fuel, the ground crew freaks out. 1

If you move at all while hooked up to ground anything or while rearm/fuel, the ground crew freaks out. All you need to do is shut down the engines to get your repairs to start. So if you're damaged just land, taxi to the parking area. Contact ground crew and turn on external power. Shut down your engines. Wait 3 minutes. The repairs will happen. Then rearm or refuel, reset your DSMS. Start up your engines and disconnect ground power once you're up. Then go. No need to realign or redo any other systems.

isaac18 Posted November 29, 2011 Posted November 29, 2011 It happens to me once. I tried to start taxi while grownd power is still on, well that's crazy!

Spectre_USA Posted November 30, 2011 Posted November 30, 2011 Only one problem with that, most arm crews have a pair of big ol' chunky chocks they lug around. I've seen some folks sling `em under the mains before the pilot comes to a full stop and jerk the guy forward until the inertia reels catch. Plugging in and chatting is always an adventure after some stunt like that... 1 [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] A tale of 2 hogs

Is there a point to it? 1.1.10 Probably you ordered a refit as the aircraft was lifted by the invisible crane for the maintenance repair boys to work on your holes. Wait 7 mins after engine shutdown and then order refits. AWAITING ED NEW DAMAGE MODEL IMPLEMENTATION FOR WW2 BIRDS Fat T is above, thin T is below. Long T is faster, Short T is slower.
