I want to love this plane but omg the view is so bad, especially in VR. If I'm not clipping into the ceiling, I can't see anything. Thing might as well, not even have windows :p
I've always thought those tiny little windows on the door in pressurised aircraft have a worryingly simplistic latch mechanism. Maybe I'm overestimating the level of pressures you can have in aircraft like this? 🙂
@@tallishyeti2756 I never started a PT-6 without it being in feather. Of course in the sim it doesn't really matter. I just wanted to know if there was a reason. Thanks for the reply.
@@jameswebb2856 usually I’ll only start them in feather if there is gonna be a line guy disconnecting the GPU with both engines running. Otherwise it’s just extra steps
@@jameswebb2856I worked on 1900s for a few years, and the manuel states to put the prop levers to full before starting, you can start in feathered if doing a GPU start though.
@@TheSwedishSalamander I flew the 1900 for over 2,500 hours and just over 1,000 hours in the Shorts 360 and we always started the PT-6's in full feather even without a GPU.
Love the Rush reference :D
Agree with PT6 being started in the feathered position.
You haven’t pulled the condition levers back…pull the RPM back after takeoff.

Well the pressurization of the aircraft is trying to close the window, not open it. You could un-fasten the latch and the window would stay closed.
@@tallishyeti2756 This. You're always going to have more pressure inside than out. If not then you're going to have larger problems than the window :)
Why did you start the engines with he props un-feathered? I have never started a PT-6 un-feathered.
It’s operator preference. Nothing wrong with doing it either way.

USELESS you talk SO FAST that no one can follow
just play the video slower or rewind, really not that hard
