I believe you’ve got your N1 and N2 mixed up there.

Also - note the “550” has electric flaps vs the 560 you referenced.

And with severe engine damage, there won't be any core rotation.

Yup, sorry.

Seemed logical that N1 should be the turbine which drives N2. Weird that they decided the fan was N1.

I remember another case in the sim where motoring the eng gave us the hyd back was L eng failed and right hyd pump failed. Motoring the L eng gave us the hyd for gear and flaps. We landed with flaps 15 in case of a GA. Eng did not have severe damage or N1 or N2 seizure.

Perhaps we should create a “Flying the Mustang” thread?

Love the ‘stang.

It’s a little beast. 5,000 feet a minute climb...sips fuel...big boy airplane capabilities.

I always thought they were named from the front of the engine to the back. JT-15 Fan is first so it gets N1. GE CF-700 has the fan on the back of the engine. On it N1 is turbine and N2 is fan.

Nice Mustang video Mark. Thanks for posting. One question: does that Mustang have Safe Taxi in its Nav subscription? Just curious. Also, the igniters on the Mustang are FADEC controlled, so you don’t need to turn them on/off. Just one more thing you don’t have worry about in the Mustang. Nice to see you enjoying it.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, given your experience with other Citations. What I was going to suggest with Safe Taxi (if it has it) is to leave the MFD on the map page and adjust the range to 3000 ft. You’ll have a nice active airport diagram and you won’t need to toggle to the chart. You can then have the SID as the chart to toggle to. It’s handy after landing as well. If it has it, you’ll like it.

Mark - Nice video! I would suggest you try climbing in pitch mode - think you'll find it works much better. Down low and light 7.5 degrees and as the speed starts to decay (around 170 KIAS) 5 degrees. I don't use VS in the climb and FLC hunts, so I don't use it either.

Does the Mustang G1000/GFC700 have envelope protection? Meaning, in pitch hold if power levers come back or speed decays excessively due to distraction, will the airplane pitch down to avoid a stall?

Username Protected · **Posted:** 05 Mar 2019, 19:13

The Mustang does not have overall envelope protection. The only mode it comes into effect is during a coupled VNAV descent. In that case, the VNAV will increase pitch to avoid overspeeding.

Great video from our humble navigator. Thanks Mark.

For those interested there’s quite the fan club over in the CJP community. Everyday I wait for the mission that says the Mustang is the one. Hard to beat the economics unless you go legacy, and even then it’s debatable.

Things you don’t want to find on a customs ramp. :lol:

I kid you not. Strangest FOD ever. And no I did not touch it.
