Ground Interconnect

[Marius_S]

I'm currently trying the first tutorial and I have small problem on page 18. After I have turned one b pump, I'm supposed to open the ground interconnect. After I have opened it, shouldn't the A system be pressurized also? That doesn't happen to me.
Thanks for any help!

Edit: After posting this post, I tried to open the ground interconnect and it seems to be working now. At least I got the a system pressurized. But I don't know why it didn't work before. I haven't done anything after posting this post. Strange...

Hello Marius

I always start with C&D in from Configomatic.
The Ground Interconnect works.
You need to have BUS TIE 1 & 2 connected even with APU only running.

I have noticed that the interconnect doesn' t work after I complete a flight, bring APU online, Shut down my engines, and all bus ties remain connected.

But..... if you leave the aircraft for some 5 or so minutes, Ground interconnect works again..... magic!!!!!!

I hope it helps....


Happy NEW YEAR to all.
