transient pressures
the OIL PRESS warning light is
acceptable under positive g flight
following a period of zero or
negative g. This is caused by
system pressure recovery, which
may take up to six seconds.
NOTE: Loss of oil pressure will
result eventually in engine seizure.
If more than idle rpm is needed,
the optimum setting is 80 to 85
percent. Engine seizure is
delayed by: minimizing rpm,
minimizing throttle movements,
maintaining 1 g flight. OIL PRESS
may be accompanied by vibration
associated with bearing failure
which may lead to engine seizure.
