Chris, FWIW, I've got a different opinion...uwochris said:Let's say you're flying a 152 (or something similar), and you experience an alternator failure... According to most POHs, the emergency checklist will be similar to the following:
- Shut off ALT side of master switch;
- Turn off non-essential electrics;
- Land as soon as practical.
Now, is there any harm in not turning off the ALT side of the master-switch? ie) will you be using extra current in keeping it on and thereby reduce the battery's reservoir power even more? I just do not understand the reason behind turning off the switch.
But of course... If I don't, the Garretts run really rough when we do the mag checks.TrafficInSight said:I bet you lean for taxi too, huh
