(D)FDR on Concorde
Hi Guys,
first, thank you for this wonderful thread!!! AFAIK , the FDR of Concorde hasn't been discussed here yet. What are it's capabilities, i.e. parameters logged, speed, capacity, etc. ? Where is it located? Did it survive the Paris crash? If so, did the investigators get useful data from it? Thanks much in advance.

RE: Debow
In the ITVV documentary, the SFE Roger Bricknell mentioned the selection of debow of #3 engine upon startup on the JFK to LHR leg, due to the downtime of the engine. This essentially delays the heat-up of the turbine shaft in favor of a more evenly temperature distribution.
Why wasn't the debow selected for all the other engine? (Roger explicitly mentioned to not needing to select the other engines for debow) Forgive me, I'm probably missing something that was mentioned earlier in this great thread.

Thanks Gordon and CJ,
Is this 26V @ 1.8kHz system used anywhere else in the industry? How many Inverters and with what redundancy where on Concorde? Subjects: None |
