JetPROP Startup and Short-field takeoff

- The JetPROP is an incredible performing aircraft. Runs with the Pilatus but at half the fuel burn. In this video we show you the complex start procedure for the JetPROP as well as a full-gross take off.

One of the most important things when comparing a JetProp to a Meridian is the lower cost of maintenance. Since the airframe was not initially certified as a turboprop, the inspection requirements are the same as the Malibu. I own a TBM 700 and could afford the airplane but what makes it such a luxury is the high cost of maintenance. A JetProp would be about half the cost. I’m thinking about it just for that reason. The TBM is a solid 35-40kts faster but uses ten gph more so the range is about the same. It also maxes out at FL310 which can be a real asset for getting over more weather. These features cost about another $30K a year in maintenance and fuel over the JetProp.
8:10 your radio voice is amazing... :)
Man, I love the JetProp !!!
Got my first couple hours in a JetPROP recently and these videos really helped me get familiar beforehand. Appreciate it!
Great video.
AMAZING!
Wow, what a great plane.
TYVM. Best turboprop start video I've seen. Right on par with the TBM start video. Kudos.
This is wonderful, subscribed. Thank you . Batteries, Pumps, Ignitors and Go!
Christoff du Plessis Thanks for the kind words!
Really well done. Wonderful explanation of the start up process; what's important and what you're looking for. Enjoyed it & learned a lot.
Mark G thanks for letting us know. I flew a couple weeks ago in a Meridian and it was so simple in comparison.
Helped me alot ! thanks for the video !
Henrique We’re glad the video was useful for you.
@@MrCannonls Started flying Jet Prop last week, and during my studies i watched this video at least 10 times ! That made everything easier to understand.

Which button did you hit to deploy that co pilot at 7:45 😆 thank you for the introduction. Love the sound of that start up
Cannon, when watching the actual start it seemed that the ITT needle was climbing quit rapidly. So rapidly in fact that there did not seem to be time to catch a hot start before an exceedance occurred unless the pilot had razor sharp reflexes. Is that the case or does it just appear that my due to the camera angle? Thanks for posting.
Happy Safe🛫
Interesting to see. It has a lot in common with starting a turbine helicopter.
Whats the best way to prevent a hot start on a quick turnaround? Like a cross country flight in the south where your just stopping to refuel. Do you just keep the starter engaged longer when starting waiting for the ITT's to cool? I feel like the starter will be engaged for longer than 30 seconds before NG stabilizes trying to allow the ITTs to cool to below 130 before introducing the fuel.
"where you are stopping for fuel"
Yeah, motoring the starter a little longer to bring down the ITTs a bit will work. Having a GPU-assisted start will typically let you get a higher Ng, bring down ITTs, and give you a cooler start overall.
So your landing roll was 1200 feet?
Q: Why are you going of the Markers and not V1 ,VR because your Stall Horn was going of while you were taking off .
He was measuring the take-off distance, not when to rotate. He did a short-field take off.
Are the ice door and inertial separator the same thing on the jet prop, or do you have both? Thx.
Scott Major It’s the same thing. “Ice door” is a name and “inertial separator” is the function.
Also for your interest, when you close the ice door/separator the torque increases by 150 lb ft with the same fuel burn
Alternately, you can reset to the same torque and reduce fuel burn by 4 goh

@@MrCannonls Thank you for the info. I suspected that was the case, but I am only a piston driver myself, so I wasn't sure. :-)
Why was the standby gyro toppled on takeoff?
kilr4d It’s been slow coming up, so we’ve got the plane in the shop now with the dash apart. Additionally, we’re installing a Garmin G5 with AHRS. Also, we’ve got another functional attitude indicator on the copilot side.
Show.
well......complicated...
Ju Teint. The startup procedure certainly is complicated. After that it’s pretty standard. Watch your ITT and push forward to go faster.
Why is it complicated? I mean he said a lot about it but that is a good thing and makes it easier to understand. You have a few steps to follow (and monitor) and the turbine is running. When wrestling with piston engines you still have several steps to follow and you then need a feeling/knowledge of what to do if the engine doesn't start. I see a lot of guys cranking their engines until they cry for mercy while I am doing my preflight. With the plane I know I only need 1 or 2 seconds to start normally but I still would like to just turn the starter on give it some fuel after stabilizing on a certain percentage and watch ITT and that's basically it. Works every time as long as the battery is ok.
