flagg Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 As the title. I've managed to land with 100lbs of fuel. While taxiing the plane shut off and I couldn't restart even with ground power and after repair. The APU simply won't turn on. Track is 50mb. The problem is at the end of the track Link: https://www46.zippyshare.com/v/hkuUJ2lr/file.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldur Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Thanks for putting this up. Was going to report today as well. Here are 2 tracks with some extensive testing I made after encountering this issue. Landed and taxi'd off with 80lbs left, then in the process of refueling the eniges stalled and I couldn't put them up again. APU ACCM warning, several hydraulics messages coming up as well (and with HYD 2A showing up you can't start the APU again AFAIK) as well as all the hyd pressures down in the drink. So I decided to give it a try and burnt up my little amount of fuel while being hooked up on the flight deck and could nicely reproduce this. What I did not try and probably would work (stumbled across this yesterday reading these forums) is calling for ground air supply and firing up the engines with that instead of using the APU. That way the APU ACCUM should recharge due to WOW and the hydraulics should come up as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagg Posted July 16, 2018 Author Share Posted July 16, 2018 already tried with air supply in that track but it doesn't fire up. maybe not implemented? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack McCoy Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) already tried with air supply in that track but it doesn't fire up. maybe not implemented? Compressed air start is modeled and should start the starboard engine under normal circumstances. Left engine can only be started using cross-bleed air, at least in DCS Hornet. There is another thread discussing engine start failure following fuel starvation.

mvsgas Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=213833 To whom it may concern, I am an idiot, unfortunately for the world, I have a internet connection and a fondness for beer....apologies for that. Thank you for you patience. Many people don't want the truth, they want constant reassurance that whatever misconception/fallacies they believe in are true..
