Hi guys,
I called the Bing folks and was advised that rising EGTs during descent
could be countered by using a little choke enrichment. Yesterdays flight
proved that out as we descended from 4000 feet at 500 fpm to 2500 ft.
The EGT hit the set point of 1450-degrees, and the warning light flashed,
so I pulled just a little choke enrichment and the EGTs dropped to
1390-degrees F rather quickly and stayed under 1400-degrees the rest of
the way.
We had a 42-degree ambient temp and none of the rest of the temps were out
of the green. Anyway, it worked.
Fly safe,
Larry McFarland - 601HDS - Stratus at 85 hours - at www.macsmachine.com
