a combustion section where fuel is added and ignited, one or more turbines that extract power from the expanding exhaust gases to drive the compressor
· Over wing free refueling of aircraft through 1½" hoses and nozzles for suction from the refueller tank. · De-fueling of fuel from aircraft through under wing coupling and delivery into the refueller tank. · De-fueling operating through the ...
The fuel storage facilities are normally sited in remote locations at the airport, far from where the aircraft receive their fuel. So, transfer fuel lines often pass under aircraft runways or taxiways. This is a significant factor when piping is installed or repaired. For example, at San Dieg...
The fuel tanks should not be filled completely to the top when aircraft are stored in hangars, especially if the outside temperature is cooler than the inside temperature. If it is warmer inside the hangar than outside, fuel in the tanks expands and causes overflow through the fuel tank's ...

clogged fuel nozzle Which gas is used for purging an aircraft fuel tank? carbon dioxide if an aircraft is fueled from a truck or storage tank which is known to be uncontaminated with dirt or water, periodic checks of the aircraft's fuel tank sumps and system strainers are still necessary ...
The combustion section receives compressed heated air from the HP compressor and fuel from the fuel nozzles. The mixture of hot air and fuel is ignited and burned in the single-annular combustion chamber to generate a HP stream of hot gas to turn the HP turbine and LP turbine. The turbine...
engineer. In simple terms it is an attention getter that also directs the pilot toward the problem area concerned. The system annunciators (shown above) are arranged such that the cautions are in the same orientation as the overhead panel e.g. FUEL bottom left, DOORS bottom of third ...
