Challenger 300 “Hell Hole”
Have you ever looked inside the “Hell Hole” of a Challenger 300? :)
This is a very simple overview of some of the things you see inside the Aft Equipment Bay of a Challenger 300 during your pre-flight inspection.
I could go into more detail, but I kept it brief just to satisfy some curiosity!

King Air Engine Anti-Ice Demonstration
zhlédnutí 6KPřed 3 lety
This demo shows the Inertial Separator Engine Anti-Ice System of the PT6 engine. As comments show, I stand corrected in the reason why it’s called a reverse flow engine. It is a reverse flow engine due to the fact that the airflow reverses between intake and combustion. It changes direction entirely (reverse) as opposed to a normal turbine engine where the airflow is always in the same direction.

In essence, regarding prop lever settings, the only pilot action ...

    If you’re on final in the C90 and you both have the runway made, and you intend to use full prop reverse, activate the anti-ice vanes on short final. It will help protect against FOD when using reverse.

    Very interesting indeed ! Thanks for this demonstration. I am not used to turboprops, flying only small piston engines. What about the fuel consumption during feathering ? Does it increase because of the higher resistance of the prop ?

    • @Mode_Sierra

      It’s neglible. Remember that the engine is never working any harder throughout the process. The “Power Levers” are never touched during the demonstration… it’s idle power throughout.

    Wouldn't it be fascinating to be able to see through the whole of the engine as if it were glass and be able to observe all of the internal workings. CGI animations can provide this but they're not the "real deal", maybe in the future a material will be designed that would allow this.

    its a reverse flow engine as the flow of the air in the engine changes direction between the compressor and turbine section

    0:55 I love that sound when a king air starts! I've gotten to work on some king airs in the hangar I work at, while they're a little difficult as far as their engineering goes, they are a joy to look at, and a joy to be around. King Air is easily one of the best planes ever built.

  • @paulhatfield498
    @paulhatfield498 Před rokem

    Does running in the feathered position make the power turbines run hotter ? Going from fine to featherd lost you something like 65% prop RPM. Are there any drawbacks to that kind of speed loss ? Great video by the way!!

    • @Mode_Sierra
      @Mode_Sierra Před rokem

      In my experience the turbines might run slightly hotter but totally negligible. To me, the benefits of starting with the props feathered outweigh the disadvantages. Things like: Quieter, friendlier to ramp personnel, if there is snow/ice etc… inadvertent taxying if the parking brake loses pressure etc.

We transfer patients to the local airport and its most often a PC12 that picks them up. Spool up time is so fast on these things. I fly RC jets and our miniature turbines take longer to start than a pt6.

    The term reverse flow engine refers to an engine design where the combustor air flowing in the opposite direction as the turbine air (folded back over to save space) not how the engine happens to be oriented on the airplane. The PT6 on the Avanti is also a reverse flow engine.

      Without getting the POH out, I can tell you that I have many times taken the C90GTX into and out of a grass airfield that is 800 meters long. Max 4 occupants and 1,400lbs of fuel. That’s just over two hours endurance.
