@@halhobenshield5931 Correct. The procedure for an aborted engine start is to pull the feather lever. When the stop button is pressed the fuel accumulator is purged into the combustion chamber. That is why during a normal shutdown the engine briefly accelerates before it winds down. If you were to abort an engine start (particularly for a hot or hung start) with the stop button you would actually exacerbate (increase egt) the issue. The feather lever simply closes the fuel valves, removing all fuel flow to the engine. Granted I am working from memory and I haven't flown the J31 since 1999!!
You don't taxi the jetstream with the power levers above flight idle detent. Your input on the power levers beyond that point has no effect on prop blade pitch(torque) at all. That aircraft is going to "run away" with you. You will not be able to control it. Always taxi with the power levers in ground idle range below flight idle detent. Reverse is only the small last bit of the ground idle range.
Amazing, getting ready to do the initial on this aircraft for a small airline! Thank you captain
I have 1000 hrs on this plane …. Loved each moment of flying it
Exactly what I wanted. Thanks
question, why is the torque meter sitting at 100 percent ? thanks
i didnt understand what happens with the engine when changing the settings.
Actually, rather than guard the STOP switch, it is safer to guard the manual STOP control in case it's necessary to abort the start.
Excellent comment, makes sense because it would manually shut the fuel off. I appreciate the input.

Great video! I am looking for IPC of Jetstream 31/32, do you have any suggestion where I can download one?
BAE hood them pretty tight. Old printed manuals are hard to come by. Sorry I can’t help more.

Very easy.
Mostly right but not completely. Read the flight manual and Garrett TPE-331 manual.
