    Hi great videos, i am a big fan of your book, app and videos. Question: on a 400 I was taking out of MX and each time we went to start the L engine - we would get light off but then the EGT gauge kept flashing at us around 628. It didn't hit the hot start numbers and it didn't hung start. We went through this several times before we took off. Somehow the indication was reset by mx but I never understood the cause. Mystery. However, we didn't know to do this BITE Test on the EIS, I assume its normally a MX Function.

I have got the actual old FMC with me if you still interested on a picture :) You video did help me out to understand the different version of equipment and then realize how much I can do with it. At the moment I'm trying to realize if the 737 classic had other subsystems shown in the MCDU or it was only able to show FMC. Have you ever seen more option aside from FMC on a classic?

It's written as such in the FCOM and it is a common question during type rating courses but I actually never had the slightest clue what it meant. (and once again many thanks for your very informative videos!)

      No problem, it simply means that although the switching, logic and control is electric; the thing that does the heating is pneumatic (hot bleed air), not also electric as you get on some aircraft.

If so, what part of the process starts when you turn the switch on? I have noticed that this way, first on (lets say while we are taxiing) and then start (entering the gate), the start process takes "less time". Thanks in advance.😢

    Thanks for the quality work. I just started as a software engineer at Teledyne Controls two months ago so it's nice to have a video I can forward to friends to show where all of our parts go in the airplane, and to see how it all fits together. I'm a little surprised that the 3.5" floppy disks were twice as slow as the portable data loader. ARINC 615 is pretty slow, but I can see how the 3.5" disk would make it even slower. Newer planes have ARINC 615A over Ethernet which is much faster. The selling point for the newer models of ADL and PDL is support for verifying digital signatures on the LSPs (Boeing or Airbus) before the software can be installed.

    Great explanation and analysis of the PSEU, quite a few times Fcom isn't enough and this system is one of them, Thanks to your effort and your altruism, now I'm more aware of all the consequences of an orange light at the back of the AFT overhead panel. In my short experience in B737 I´ve had a couple of times this PSEU light illuminated while disembarking only though the from door and most of the pax remaining on the plane still in the back. I´ve heard that fault is because the sensor of the Nose Gear does not agree with the Main gears so the fault is triggered. I´ve seen people even stopping the pax at the front to evenly distribute the weigh on the plane to avoid the plane from pitching up. I haven't found anything about this nor any limitation for pax disembark. Did you hear about this or ever happened to you? Thanks again, looking forward to watch your next master class.

Is it actively exhausted by a fan? Or does it just utilise positive pressure in the cabin with some path to the exhaust valves?

    Excellent presentation Chris👨🏻‍✈️I flew all models of the B737, with the exception of the MAX. My question, would normal, QRH “runaway stab trim” abnormal, have saved the two MAX crashes? My instincts, say yes, but I can’t seem to get a straight answer since I have retired. I always took this abnormal very seriously, and always checked the stab cutout switches, as part of my preflight. Once again, great work👨🏻‍✈️

    • @ChrisBrady737
      @ChrisBrady737 Месяц назад

      My issue with that procedure for this scenario is that it doesn’t fit the criteria. The MCAS accidents were not a runaway stab trim, they were an intermittent spurious application of stab trim. When electric stab trim was applied the “runaway” disappeared for 5sec than reared its head again. Hardly a runaway.

    Hi Chris - Location of O2 bottles on BCFs - I see from the video at 1:09:38, that the bottles are stated to be "just aft of door 1L on the 9G bulkhead", which would make them inside the cargo compartment...? If I cross-reference this with the Freighters video at 1:00:00, the decompression door is just aft of the 1L door on the BCF... I think the O2 bottles on the BCF must then be on the supernumary vestibule side of the 9G bulkhead, which would make the bottles just aft of the *1R* door on the forward side on the 9G buklhead, not the 1L? Or perhaps just *forward* of the 1L door? I also think placing the bottles in the cargo compartment would make them susceptible to damage in the case that the cargo moved and impacted the 9G barrier, rendering them unusable or may breach them in an accident, which might ruin ones' day...

    Thanks Chris - I learn so much from these! 🙏

    A key aspect of dual failures is that the first failure mode is often a "latent failure" that exists for several flying hours prior to the incident, and then the second failure mode occurs acutely at the time of the accident itself. This means that the two failures don't need to begin at the same time, and the probability of the double failure increases dramatically. The way to correct this is for engineers to design the control system to intentionally lose some (but not a dangerous amount) of functionality when the first failure occurs, so that the pilots will become aware of the first failure before the second failure has a chance to occur. This is hard to understand, so let me provide an example, when the new RSEP servo valve was rolled out, both of the two linkages connected to the main PCU had jam override couplings where the torque tube meets each rod. This means that, if one valve jams, the rudder pedals immediately require 18lb of extra pressure to move the rudder the same amount. This creates an immediate indication to the pilots that something is wrong, but does not place the aircraft in any immediate danger. In this way, the airline is forced to perform an immediate inspection of the PCU servo valve, which will inevitably catch the single failure before there is any significant chance of a double failure developing.

    The water repellant coating is supposed to be refreshed periodically by the airline, which my airline has never done. I apply RainX repellant as a fix.
