ATR 72-500 ?'s


Recommended Posts

I just bought this awesome aircraft - GREAT job. I have just a couple questions I'm hoping someone can answer.

 

1. Where is the transponder? I can't find it, I searched the manual for transponder but it doesn't find it. Its in the procedures so I figure it's got to be there somewhere.

2. How do you set the nav source for the EADI? It seems to start by being locked to the FMS but I can't figure out how to change that - want to fly the ils down w/ VOR1.

3. I just got done w/ a quick flight and on landing there was quite a bit of buffeting - I'm guessing that's what happens when you're approaching the stall, and I was slow 
so I figure that's what it was. Is that correct?

4. What should the power management setting be for landing? The manual cuts that sentence off. It says "PNF Select gear down – PWR MGT TO" but it doesn't say what to set it to.

Thanks!!

I also bought this recently so still reading trough manuals. But answer to #4 is TO = Take Off. If you look at the Power Management panel the switch has "TO" position. Refer to Manual pages 65-66.
