11. POWER ASSURANCE CHECK
−
AUTOMATIC
The power assurance check provides
a means for the pilot to determine, prior to
take off, that each engine is capable of developing specification power.
NOTE
:
The primary purpose of this chart is its use as an engine performance trending
tool to aid in determining whether the engine is producing specification power,
or if engine power deterioration has occurred. Power check data taken at regular
intervals should be plotted to monitor trends in engine condition. Any trend
indicating a reduction in engine performance should be investigated.
If desired, pilots can view the last power check under the IIDS POWER CHECK
menu or other previous power assurance checks in the TREND LOG under
AIRCRAFT MONITOR menu.
NOTE
:
This power check procedure refers to the automated IIDS power check. If unable
to perform the automated power check, use the manual power check method
found in paragraph 5
