BAC1-11 engine failure

[BAC111FAN]

I have installed the BAC-1-11-400 from DM Flightsim in FSX and everything works well. I have just one problem, after take off the engine shut off automatically and I´ll crash, because I cannot start them again. What did I do wrong or how can I solve this problem?

Hi BAC111FAN,

Welcome aboard. Your cooking the engines, either throttle back or use the "Top Temp" switches which limited the engines to stop them overheating

Let us know if this solves your problem.

P.S I've deleted your other post as its a duplicate of this one

The same thing happened to me -- times two. Both engines were failing. I finally noticed the two warning lights that said too hot!

Hi,

thank you for this brilliant information I turned back the throttles after takeoff and the engines continued to run.

Hi 111FAN

Yup.. as was mentioned, use the 'top temp' switches (from the VC) or keep the little tinker just out of the red on takeoff for fuss-free flying. I don't use the VC so I'm a borderline yellow/red user

When I first started on the 1-11, I just used the water injection (not entirely realistic at Heathrow during 10*C weather!) and throttled as high as I could without going into the red.

Then I figured out where the top temp switches are. If you don't already know, they are located on the pedestal, to the right of the throttle levers. If you had a full load with mild temperatures but the takeoff run was likely to be very long, you could always use the water injection to aid the process. I haven't flown in the "warm weathers" of Europe with the 1-11 recently, but I'm sure it would work quite nicely.

Good luck!

OK, thanks. I will try.

Another question for the 1-11, how can I retract the rear stairs? With CTRL+E I open the main door and retract the front stairs, but I haven´t found the proceedure for the rear entrance, yet.

Hi 111FAN..

I'm not sure if it works in FSX but there's a button on the overhead. You see the door warning section.. clicking on the lamps should open and close the doors too. At least this is what happens in FS9

Rear stairs is tailhook in adition to the switch

I'm sure that's in the instructions

You know what I'm like with multiple doors Garry A mouse click on a lamp is much more ME
