TomAce 78 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 Hi! In the Vol3 tutorial documentation (page 54) is says the continuous ignition should be activated before take-off. But I can't find a place that tells me when to deactivate after take-off. When should it be deactivated? After flaps is up? At FL100/10000ft?

KuntaKinte 210 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 In my company continuous ignition is not a basic requirement for take-off. Aside, whenever deemed necessary, there are certain conditions, where its use is mandatory: Take-off and landing on contaminated runways Flight through moderate or heavier intensity rain Flight through moderate or heavier intensity turbulence Flight in the vicinity of thunderstorms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you use it, at what stage do you turn it off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuntaKinte 210 Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 You just use it as the situation requires. E.g. you are on the ILS and your weather radar shows a CB with moderate precipitation on short final. So, you would switch continuous ignition on some time in advance and switch it off again when leaving the runway or with the after landing items.
