RANDOM FAILURES
The Random Failures panel
allows you to experience what
it is like to expect the unex-
pected. To set up a random
failure simply enter the failure
time window interval(s). As
previously described, you can
use these intervals to invoke
failures immediately, at speci-
fied times, or within a defined
failure time window. Then
dial in the number of failures
you would like to occur. If for
example we entered in a fail-
ure time window of between 3
and 12 minutes, then entered
2 in the Instruments window,
ELITE would randomly fail two of the six instruments (each at some
random time between 3 and 12 minutes).
NOTE: “Engines” does NOT refer to the number of engines but
rather to the number of possible engine failures. Depending on the
aircraft there might be as many as 5 failure types (power loss, oil
pressure, oil temperature, hot starts, hung starts, etc.) as shown on
the engine failure panel.
