HOW TO START AN AIRPLANE [] KING AIR E-90

This video was made specifically to help the students I teach to be better prepared to know the start procedure day one of flying in the King Air. If you find it interesting or useful that is fine but please be advised to NEVER try this procedure WITHOUT proper permission or specific training by a CFI on the King Air you have access to. Also, a reminder to aircraft owners and operators who fly aircraft that do not require keys - please remember to lock your aircraft.
The only thing better than the sensational experience of flight is the joy of sharing it with others!

Great video of the King Air twin engine start. Never realized that there was so much to watch for and monitor with just starting the engines.

[@AviatorMark]

Ben Burns It is a little more complicated than some may think. Several of my students have been struggling to get the flow and muscle memory of it down so I am hoping this video can help them with that. Also, it’s just interesting to see. There are so many airplanes and each one seems to have a slightly different procedure to the process.

[@calvinnickel9995]

Yeah it was a real struggle for me first starting. I’m not sure if the E90 has all the same things, but what we watch for on the B350 are: Start switch on: Ignition (green annunciator) Fuel pressure (red annunciator extinguished) Prop rotation 12% N1 (sometimes I’ll go as high as 18% on hot days to reduce start temperatures) Condition lever low idle. Oil pressure rising (I believe with inverters there are no oil pressure indications.. so the prop coming out of feather is the indication that you have oil pressure) First ITT rise from primary nozzles. Second ITT rise from secondary nozzles (Max 1000C) Starter off at 50%. R generator reset.. then on after line voltage has built. Indications stabilized. White low pitch solenoid annunciator illuminated and prop at or above 1050 RPM. Check current limiters by placing voltmeter to L GEN (should see 28V) and that bus ties are closed (they close automatically with 28V.. open with 24V).

start the first engine with the prop feathered or feather after temp on a crowded ramp, it's old school but ok to not disrupt things at high idle on the ground for the second start. Start the downwind engine first, the chief pilot won't bother you as long as you don't burn the paint. A100s don't count

[@jamesriordan7]

Great video! Do you just go to high idle on #2 to help with the start of #1? I noticed you never advanced the #1 engine to high idle before you brought #2 back to low idle. I’m just a radial engine guy hoping to get into turbines here soon so just learning. Thanks!

[@duncandanard7813]

B200 driver here. Yes, High Idle on 2 to assist with starting 1.

[@AviatorMark]

THIS!

[@johnwinegart681]

Yes, if you dont go to high idle on the engine that's already running (usually that's #2 because of what items run off what side electrically) and you leave the generator on while starting the remaining engine (#1 in this case) you can cause a Voltage/Gen overload and blow the current limiters. Often you'll see King Air pilots start #2, go to high idle, then turn on the #2 generator for 30 seconds or a minute to recharge the battery, then kill the generator and go back to low idle and start #1 off the battery. This can be done for noise reduction since high idle makes more noise, but I've also heard on the maintenance side its good to do battery starts on both sometimes to make sure the battery gets deep cycled...not sure how true that part is but in the military we always did "generated assisted starts" just like this video, not a dual battery start.

[@calvinnickel9995]

This reminds me of the B90 we had at tech school. That Beechcraft tan. Of course ours had the engine gauges mounted horizontally which made it difficult to remember which ones were for which engine. 20 years later I fly them for a living. A Beech 350i that looks like the space shuttle inside. EFIS sure makes things very easy as the torque and ITT are concentric with the same redlines and the gauges flash yellow to alert you and red to warn you of imminent danger. No inverters to worry about and the triple bus system automatically ties buses and load sheds. I am curious. I remember vaguely on the B90 that it was a “cross gen” start much like on the B350 and what you demonstrated here. On early 200s you do a “generator assisted” start where you turn the generator on after the start, but then you turn it off when you hit the other starter to prevent too much current from going from the generator. Once through a certain speed you turn the right gen back on to “assist” with the rest of the start. On the 350.. we have an electronic GCU that limits the current. What does the 90 have or what makes it different that you don’t have to worry about blowing generators doing a cross gen start?

[@AviatorMark]

We follow the Checklist and POH and we have not had any issues yet. Not sure of the exact difference.

[@justadreamin1004]

when you move the condition levers to introduce the fuel --- bring them.* NEXT TO or EVEN with the hook* on the quadrant. once you are stable and out of danger from a hot start then you can move the lever forward beyond the hook

[@AviatorMark]

DONALD COX That’s an interesting technique. Not the way I was taught, but I like the thought process. Thanks for sharing.

[@justadreamin1004]

@@AviatorMark My father was a corporate jock with over 7000 hours in one particular E-90. I remember him saying come even with hook but not in it. if it hot starts you can easily and instantaneously pull back the lever to cut fuel. if it's in the hook - it could be a problem. I dunno where he learned it - Beech maybe?

[@tomgei]

I’m working on the Dash-8 and we go from fuel cut-off to feather during start-up. Any reason you would start up your engines with props in max? (What engine is it btw?) The Dash-8 uses a PW120-family engine with free turbine. Maybe the answer lies there....?

[@AviatorMark]

Geir Ove Tømmerbakk It’s the bullet proof good old PT6. I’m sure there’s a few differences from the Dash. That’s the proper procedure tho. I’m sure it’d start the other way too but they’ve got their reasons. Always interesting learning the different procedures for other aircraft.

[@seanriley1603]

I thought starting with props in feather was proper procedure too.

[@calvinnickel9995]

You (almost) always start a free turbine engine with the prop in feather to reduce start times and help the gas producer accelerate. This is because the power turbine can’t as easily absorb the power when the prop is feathered. One exception is on seaplanes that have pitch locks and this is to prevent unwanted thrust as the prop goes from feather to fine and vice versa. The PT6 is started with the prop levers in fine but by the time there is enough oil pressure from the governor to overcome the counterweights and feathering spring the engine is pretty much started. Unlike a PW100... you can’t keep a PT6 in feather for a long time since it needs airflow from the prop to disperse the (now hotter) exhaust gasses. The PW100 was designed for airline service so for long taxis and delays you can keep it feathered for a long time and almost always see one feathered during taxi on a classic dash. The Q has a different hydraulic system which allows for safe single engine taxi instead.

Christofer Riche It does. There is system logic we use that favors the number two engine start first but that isn’t to say the number one can’t be started first. It’s just not the favored one.

[@calvinnickel9995]

Almost always it’s #2 engine due to it being closer to the battery. But I’ve started #1 first a few times because the right side wasn’t entirely clear (safe.. but just as a courtesy to people on that side of the aircraft to allow them to depart the area) or because I accidentally grabbed the wrong switch (I always check both sides before any start).

[@tommywatkins1747]

Why start the right engine first? I'm 21,000 hours ATP, and have always started the engine closest to pilot first.........

[@AviatorMark]

TOMMY WATKINS Good question. Our checklist specifies the right engine to be started first as the battery compartment is in the right wing, at least on the King Air 90. There is less resistance due to the cable length being shorter to the right engine. You could certainly start the left first especially if the engines were already warm or you were using a cart to start but in most cases it’s best to minimize the strain you put on the batteries and then on the generators after start as well - that is also why we come to high idle before starting the next engine.

[@andrewchoyoung8667]

Also could be habit, I instruct part time as well but in the airline we always start right side first because usually there is a gate and ground crew maneuvering on the left. We start left side on the push back. When i go back to instructing i tend to continue with that habit lol (for aircraft that dont specify which side to start first)

[@andyr8413]

You don’t have to go on high idle on left engine?

[@gregfarbo8035]

On my 300 you do, its not for more electricity but actually for air flow on the generator you are about to hammer with max output. If you don't it is hard on the operating generator.

[@AviatorMark]

Andy R Not on our E-90. It’s for the electric draw. On our 300 it’s the same as Greg said I believe. I’ve only flown that one a few times SIC though so I’d have to confirm.

[@seanriley1603]

Why not wait for the battery to build back up, then turn off the generator and start number one? The battery can handle it.

[@seanriley1603]

As for the props, why can’t you leave them in feather for the start?

[@AviatorMark]

Sean Riley Actually that would not be a good idea. All our mechanics do not like us putting those kind of loads on the battery.

[@alecfriedman4330]

I was under the impression that it's a carryover from old DC3s and the like, where the pilot in the left seat couldn't see the right engine so they'd start the right first to identify issues by sound then start the left, which they'd be able to see out the window. Is there any validity to that or is it just a rumor?

[@vinceocratic]

Siegwart Aviator that mentality right there is why you’re a pilot and not an aviator. The fact you replied in this manner is a clear display of your arrogance and know-nothingness. Let me break this down simply since you have a KZbin channel and that entitles you to publish your inaccuracies: axial compression to centrifugal... think real hard now... engine is spinning, drawing in air, u hear the ticking sound from the plugs and... when you introduce the fuel guess what - it has to be spinning at a certain speed to kick out the initial hot gas from the light off. So numbnuts, that’s why when you get more compressor speed you’ll see cooler starts. 12-13% NG is a minimum, retard!!!!
