CABIN COOL
DOWN
PROCEDURE
This procedure describes the most efficient way to pull down the temperature to
a comfortable level in a heat soaked parked aircraft. The procedure will also
minimize the amount of moisture and condensation experienced in the air dis-
tribution ducting during temperature pull
−
down in hot and humid conditions.
The procedure assumes right engine running with propeller brake applied.
With HP bleed extracted from the engine, ITT will be high and in some cases
limiting. If ITT is limiting, engine temperature will decrease when closing the X
