    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Razbam A7 Corsair Tacpack - in flight engine flame-out issue

Hello ! I've this problem with the A7 (Tacpack version by Razbam) : When in flight, the engine shut-off by itself with no reason, this can happens after 6/7 minutes after the take-off or also after 20/30 minutes. I don't
slam the throttle back and forward during the flight, I'm gentle keeping the jet power at around 85% and there's no way to restart the engine. I don't ask to Razbam anything being them very careless with their costumers so I ask here if someone here had the same odd behaviour.
Thank you

Stupid question but have you checked fuel?
 
RB has moved on to other sims (DCS), but the biggest thing to watch when flying both Tacpack and non-TP A-7s, engine TOT will exceed limits and shutdown.

You are right! It's also well stated in the manual! My mistake (and my rush to take off without reading the POH)@ Duckie : in aviation there's no stupid questions!

Watch it on letdown too. You can have it at idle, go into a dive from altitude and it will also flame out as you get into thicker, warmer air. Around 15-20K feet or so and higher you can run wide open as the air is cool enough to keep temps in check. The engine in this is almost as hard to keep from flaming out as the Me-262 from Flight Replicas. I have quite a few single engine landings in that one!

Ok, thanks, just yesterday I've had a flameout after a touch and go, and the TOT was not over the red line...
 
Hello Cees! I'm flying the A7 - Tacpack version and the jet gauge we are talking about is the TOT = Turbine outlet temperature.
