Phantom_737 3 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 I was curious if this system component would be modeled. The company I flew the CRJ for had a first flight fuel feed check valve check that we did. I should be able to start number 1 on the first flight, then turn both fuel pumps off and get a R FUEL LO PRESS light. Then prior to shutting down after the first flight, shut down number 1 first, turn off both fuel pumps again and see L FUEL LO PRESS. But this system does not appear to be modeled. Would be nice to see this implemented since it was required for us to check on every first flight. I believe it was a no go item for us. I can provide more system detail if needed.

Nicco54 24 Posted March 17, 2021 Share Posted March 17, 2021 We do it as well for the CRJ 1000 on the first flight of the day. I tried it in the Aerosoft CRJ and it actually appeared to work. Maybe I read the EICAS wrong, will try again tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom_737 3 Posted March 17, 2021 Author Share Posted March 17, 2021 Actually I was just trying this again, and it worked this time. Lol maybe I had a weird bug or something the first time I tried. I'll see if it works on the taxi in as well. Will report back shortly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom_737 3 Posted March 18, 2021 Author Share Posted March 18, 2021 Yup, appears to be working now. Strange. Welp this can be closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicco54 24 Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 Yes it does work, but the R FUEL LO PRESS / L FUEL LO PRESS appears instantly which has never been the case for me in the real plane. It normally took a good 5 to 10 seconds, and with one specific aircraft it actually took close to 1 minute each time. As a matter of fact it can take up to 2 minutes according to the manual, and if it doesn't appear within those 2 minutes the manual actual states that you have to dry motor in order to force it.
