I'm not a pilot but found this interesting. A lot of systems to precheck before even starting on the preflight. Wow!! Thanks for the insight. Looking forward to seeing more.
I just Study initial maintenance training for ERJ 190, for myself, and tis video is excellent explanation about of starting with APU and GPU. Ver y good. Thank you so much
@@sahilsangwan8948 USA, at the time I made this comment I was in Cleveland, working for an airline that’s now shutdown. I’m no longer working on this fleet type, however bigger and better ones. Like Boeing 737, 757, 767, 777, 787, Airbus A319, 320. We apparently have 321s too but they don’t fly into my airport much. To answer the other question, AMT. Not an engineer.

Yeah he forgot to turn EMER light after GPU connected. But on Boeing planes pilot do the fire warn procedure later during IRS aligning. Not sure if he should have done that during FLT CTL test
As the content creator said, the transfer is automatic. The only thing you have to do is push the GPU button out. It will still read “AVAIL” on the button.
APU needs to be started up before adding any other electrical devices, otherwise u will drain the batteries below 21 volts. Nav lights, beacon, inspection and airline insignia go on last...
@@L1011DFW the battery will *eventually* drain with electrical power on and without GPU, APU, or eng power. However, the position (nav) lights should be turned on whenever an aircraft is powered up, especially if hydraulics are on and flight controls are moving. It can be extremely hazardous to those on the ground outside the aircraft to not know when an aircraft is powered up. With light aircraft, the beacon light (or strobes if no beacon present) is used to warn people in the same manner. In all my years of flying, I've never once turned off a beacon light because I've always made sure to keep it on as a signal to others the the aircraft is powered up (and engine start may commence at any moment).
Questions: 1. Does the APU Gen get pressed (white light off) before or after the APU start? 2. Does the DC Pump have to be on? and then after engine start does it come off? Thanks.
The APU GEN pushbutton is normally kept pushed in before start thus the striped bar is off. The DC fuel pump control knob should be kept in AUTO . After APU starting the system automatically shuts off it once APU is feeding the main AC buses and then RH AC fuel pump Will feed the APU. To do that, the RH AC fuel pump control knob should be in AUTO also.
should you really be using the ptu this way? 175/190 checks before departure are at least 25 minutes, the hydraulics will get to temp on their own by then.
what pumps should be on when defueling, or cockpit fuel pumps switch configuration for defueling both tanks simultaneously to avoid fuel imbalance after defuel. Thanks
Depends, If you are defueling both tanks like you mention, no much you can do. The defuel truck will open the valves needed. You will run into fuel imbalance if the pressure fueling system is broken. if thats the case over the wing defuel takes place. But id you just transfering from tank to tank, just turn the opposite engine pump to help out with the transfer.
Im surprised the aircraft doesn't have something like a CMOS battery to keep track of the time. Unless 'm not understanding what I see on the clock screen w hich seems ot be showing the time since you connected GPU power :)
it shows Zulu time, local time, date and chrono. As for the battery there is an alarm that alert the crew that the batteries are draining (ground crew horn will sound)
can you charge the E170's BATT with the APU or do they need to be removed like a S-105 to get a full charge.... I kept getting a Low Volt light starting... mechanic told be it was nothing to worry about... removing the Battery and charging it seemed to solve the problem. I do not use it enough to keep the battery charged..... even though all the systems are off I still drain the battery to the point where I have to do a Manual start (which i might add is Incredibly Dangerous and No one should ever do this with even the smallest beach-craft)
Yo can recharge the batteries with APU. It will ussually take about 45 minutes to charge (depending on how low they are) The batteries get to a point to where it cannot not be recharge, anything less than 10v. So, replacing the batteries is your best option.
AV rated Battery's are How much??? and where in Alberta Do I get a new one? Reconditioned are good but they will only warranty them for a year. I have been renting but he gives me discounts if I do Maintenance. I spend too much time on the ground because of my Vertigo....
yes. but GPU will be disable due to power transfer from GPU to APU (APU has priority as main source of electrical power). but, if APU is broken GPU is use with ground air power
Autobrake isn’t really necessary. Having flown the 145 and now starting into this, you can simply step on the brakes and get as much effective stopping. For autobrake to work, you need weight on wheels and a speed over 60 knots for 3 seconds. The second you touch the toe brakes, they disengage anyway. I’d say they’re helpful on RTO mode, but landing numbers don’t have autobrakes factored, except you do get the runway distances through ACARS.
SEE THE SWITCHES, ON THE CENTER COLUMN-THAT IS WEATHER SERVICES, VOR, LORAN, ETC. YOUR THINKING PRE-1998 AIRBUS@ USC 49 CHP. 7 STATUTE 207 OR TURN ON THE ENGINES WITH THROTTLE 0%, OTHERWISE BEFORE MOVE THE STICK THROUGH ALL POSITIONS-REMEMBER 2018.
In the first 12 seconds, I can tel this will be awful. "Ground Power and GPU power"! Guess what, they are one in the same. Didn't watch past 12 seconds. I have an EMB-145 type and 8000 hrs in this airplane.

Thanks. This is a good refresher. Even though I’ve just recently completed a E175 familiarization class for Maintenance.
Where are you from man
And are you an aircraft maintenance engineer?

Very nice,thanks for sharing. Now i can see how it works in my flight simulator(X-Plane with Embraer 175).
Same.
X-Plane 12 looks very realistic
Thank you very much, really helpful! If you can do others video about the E195 would be appreciated.
i do maintenance to Emb-170,190 and 145. It is so interesting your channel 😊
Thanks sir i have seen video cockpit view realy i feel i am commercial pilot so nice of you sir
you are forget about fire test and emer light
very good catch! I hope everyone take a note on that. Thank you :)
Greetings from Russia
Yeah he forgot to turn EMER light after GPU connected. But on Boeing planes pilot do the fire warn procedure later during IRS aligning. Not sure if he should have done that during FLT CTL test
this cockpit is the baby of Airbus and Boeing. Airbus color theme, button layout, but with boeing yoke
Interesting video. Where's your accent from?
Very good video and very well explained! congrats!! really, very good
Good afternoon my friends, if someone has a video making the oil service of the IDG PW1900G E2 family, please share it, thanks.
Thank you sir. Nice work.
5:21 You didn't do the APU Fire test.
Thanks, now I am able to steal an Embraer
Hugo Woesthuis hahaha kon ik al met dank aan de sim 😋
Hugo Woesthuis a lot more is there to fully start it up. That was just a simple video. You try to steal it then you’ll be caught easily
Not if the Ground Power Unit (GPU) is disconnected... he didn't show an APU (Auxiliary Power Unit) cold start for this aircraft.
@@johncarroll6063 Stealing an aicraft today is still very easy... As proven by someone taking a Horizon Q400 and doing actual barrel rolls with it...
@@rkan2 RIP Skyking
Good explanition.... thanks
Is the transfer automatic from GPU to APU power?
yes, APU takes priority. it is the same when you kill APU ground power takes over batts
As the content creator said, the transfer is automatic. The only thing you have to do is push the GPU button out. It will still read “AVAIL” on the button.
Wouldn't you normally put the nav lights on once you have electrical power established?
APU needs to be started up before adding any other electrical devices, otherwise u will drain the batteries below 21 volts. Nav lights, beacon, inspection and airline insignia go on last...
Rocco Santa Fe Once GPU Power is introduced, Nav light should have been on, especially since he was running hydraulic tests.

1.APU Gen should always be press. auto mode
2.correct, DC pump will stnd by when engine start
The APU GEN pushbutton is normally kept pushed in before start thus the striped bar is off.
The DC fuel pump control knob should be kept in AUTO .
After APU starting the system automatically shuts off it once APU is feeding the main AC buses and then RH AC fuel pump Will feed the APU. To do that, the RH AC fuel pump control knob should be in AUTO also.
Hello!! Why does not the aircraft have Autobrake panel??
Very informative
very nice video. please make more about EMB 170
I subscribed - good content
Great video!
i was watching videos about Xplane 11 and first i thought - damn, the graphics here are real xDDDDD
Fire test?
should you really be using the ptu this way? 175/190 checks before departure are at least 25 minutes, the hydraulics will get to temp on their own by then.
This is only done by maintenance when acft needs to be relocated and no time to wait 25 min
Cool video
Great video please do a only apu start video
you forgot to do the fire test
Not sure if he forgot,boeing pilots do that during irs aligning
What is hydraulic PTU switch for?
what pumps should be on when defueling, or cockpit fuel pumps switch configuration for defueling both tanks simultaneously to avoid fuel imbalance after defuel. Thanks
Depends, If you are defueling both tanks like you mention, no much you can do. The defuel truck will open the valves needed. You will run into fuel imbalance if the pressure fueling system is broken. if thats the case over the wing defuel takes place.
But id you just transfering from tank to tank, just turn the opposite engine pump to help out with the transfer.
Please do more maintenance videos
Great tutorial!!!!
Great vid! What's that high-pitched whirring sound that comes and goes - like at 3:06?

Clock will get time from GPS as soon as a fix is established
Different than Boeing and Airbus hehe.
totally. when I work in BOEING 737s feel like going back in time
what i need to do for the steeer off message to go away? i cant taxi!
Most likely your steering manifold is bad…. If the reset didn’t work. Let me know
He said: "ground power and GPU star"....aren't they same things ???
good catch! I meant to say "APU POWER"
So there's no ignition key?
Maybe on the next upgrade lol
I like Erj. It’s modern jet
i love this jet ;) i fly it on X-Plane 11 ;) awesome hehe

Where is the transponder ?
EPIC BLAST NAV Page on CDU
MCDU, Radio button. You have XPDR 1 & 2.
Did you still need apu to startup the engine if GPU available ?
yes. but GPU will be disable due to power transfer from GPU to APU (APU has priority as main source of electrical power). but, if APU is broken GPU is use with ground air power
Meu Brasil Brasileiro
fala meu grande blz?
You forgot to inflate the copilot and give him a cigarette 🤣🤣🤣
Forgot to do the fire test of the APU before the APU start
Lots of fingerprints... they aren't touchscreen folks...hands off
Forgot to check the battery voltages.
21 volts to start minimum. When turning on the batteries most show up around 23 to 24 volts...
Rocco Santa Fe Hsuhdjsiusjijusjuwjjw

I guess I didn't study the the aircraft carefully enough! APU and Ground Power are different. Maybe a language thing?
Just run into your comment. And I meant to say APU. I'm sorry didn't finished my video.
