Engine and Related Systems Malfunctions
II. Reduced thrust on takeoff 1.5.3.1.5.2.1
NOTE: This malfunction may be caused by an engine bleed valve failure or
a steam ingestion bleed valve failure (CWS indications) resulting in loss of
thrust. A faulty ECA or intake icing could also cause reduced thrust at
takeoff.
A. Indications
1. RPM low
2. EGT low
4. Reduced climb performance
5. CWS
a. Caution tone sounds
b. MASTER ALERT flashes
c.
ACCEL caution light illuminates
B. Verifications
NOTE: It is not necessary that all of the following verifications be
present to consider the indications confirmed.
1. Throttle at MRT position
2. RPM below normal
3. EGT below computed value
4. Fuel flow below normal value
5. Line speed not met
C. Effects on flight safety
1. Loss of thrust
2. Inability to attain flying speed
3. Inability to maintain flying speed
4. Possibility of total loss of thrust
