Page 5 of 10 RADIO FREQUENCIES In order to receive radio communications from other mission entities and have your transmitted messages received, it is vital that you have your radios set up properly! If not, you will be essentially talking to yourself. When a mission is created, each friendly flight and airfield is provided a VHF AM and UHF frequency. These are generally noted in the mission briefing and should be set to your radios at the start of the missions. Generally, the following rules apply: Your flight is most often assigned a UHF frequency. You will use this channel for inter-flight communications. Other friendly flights operate on a common VHF AM frequency assigned to the operating area. When set correctly, you will hear radio communications from other flight operating in the area. AWACS is assigned a unique VHF AM frequency. The JTAC is most often assigned a unique VHF FM frequency. Each airbase ATC is assigned a unique VHF AM frequency.

As such, you may have to juggle multiple frequencies during the course of a mission and the frequency preset features on the radio will become a big help.

Page 8 of 10 APPENDIX III: EMERGENCY PROCEDURES Engine Fire If an engine fire is detected in either engine, the engine fire right or left T-Handle will illuminate red. In case of such a fire, follow these steps: 1. Reduce power to affected engine and monitor if the fire light goes out. If the fire persists 2. Set the throttle of the affected engine to OFF. 3. Pull the fire T-Handle of the affected engine. 4. Press the fire discharge agent switch left or right. 5. If both presses of the discharge agent switch fail to put out the fire, land as soon as possible. APU Fire If an APU fire is detected the APU fire T-Handle will illuminate red. This will likely be accompanied with a Bleed Air Leak caution light. In case of such a fire, follow these steps: 1. If the APU is operating, set the APU switch to OFF. If the fire persists 2. Pull the fire T-Handle of the APU. 3. Press the fire discharge agent switch left or right. 4. If both presses of the discharge agent switch fail to put out the fire, land as soon as possible.

Page 9 of 10 Single Engine Restart If an engine needs to be restarted while in flight you can either use the APU to restart the engine or perform and windmill airstart. APU Restart. Using the APU to restart an engine is performed as follows: 1. Move the inoperative engine throttle to the OFF position. 2. Observe that the shut down engine ITT value cools down rapidly. 3. Aircraft altitude should be below 20,000 ft AGL and increase airspeed. 4. When below 15,000 ft AGL, move the APU power switch to the PWR position. 5. Move the still operating throttle to MAX 6. Set the Engine Operate switch of the affected engine to the MOTOR setting 7. When affected engine ITT is below 100-c when below 15,000 ft AGL, restart the affected engine by moving the throttle from OFF to IDLE 8. Move the Engine Operate switch of the affected engine back to the NORM position. 9. If engine restart is successful, reengage the SAS switches and set engine operate switch back to NORM.

Page 10 of 10 Windmill Restart This method will use the bleed air from the operating engine to provide the power to start the affected engine. Using a windmill start will take 6,000 to 8,000 ft to complete because it requires a steep dive of at least 30-degrees. Given the altitude requirement, this is not an option when below 10,000 ft AGL. To perform a windmill restart: 1. Place the aircraft in a 30-degree dive. 2. Set the Bleed Air switch to OFF. 3. Set the Crossfeed switch to Crossfeed. 4. Once ITT of affected engine is below 150-c, set both throttles to MAX. 5. Set the Engine Operate switch of the affected engine to IGN. 6. Once engine is operating, move Engine Operate switch back to NORM. 7. Move Crossfeed switch to OFF. 8. Set Bleed Air switch to ON.

Engine Start after a Failed Start If an engine fails to start using the automatic NORM mode, the engine combustion chamber maybe flooded with fuel and needs to be purged before it can be restarted or risk a hot start. A failed start can happen if you fail to set the Inverter switch, which fails to provide power to the engine igniters. To purge an engine of fuel: 1. Set the Throttle of the affected engine to OFF. 2. Set the Engine Operate switch of the affected engine to the MOTOR position for 30 seconds. After completing the purge, you can attempt to restart the engine after correcting what prevented the engine from starting earlier.
