Question 3

-Aborted Engine Start
Condition; on the ground and an aborted start is needed
objective; shut down the engine and motor it

Answer 3

1. Engine start lever - CUTOFF

Question 4

-Engine Limit or Surge or Stall
Condition: on or more:
-abnormal engine indications
-engine limits are rapidly approaching or exceeding limits
-abnormal engine noise
-no response to thrust lever
-flames engine inlet or exhaust are reported

Objective: to attempt to recover normal engine operation or shut down the engine if recovery is not possible

Answer 4

1. Autothrottle(if engaged) - disengage

2. Thrust lever (affected engine) - confirm - retard until within limit or fully closed

Question 5

-Loss of thrust on both engines
Condition: one of these occur:
-both engines have loss of thrust
-both EGN FAIL alerts show

Objective To restart atlas one engine

Answer 5

1. ENGINE START switches (both) - FLT
2. Engine startlevers (both) - CUTOFF
3. WHEN EGT decreases:
   Engine start levers (both) - IDLE DETENT
4. IF EGT reaches 950ºC or there is no increase in EGT within 30 seconds:
   Engine start lever affected engine - confirm - CUTOFF, then IDLE detent

IF EGT again reaches 950ºC or there is no increase in EGT within 30 seconds, repeat as needed.
