internal tolerances. (4) Engine mount—for cracks, looseness of mounting, and looseness of engine to mount. (5) Flexible vibration dampeners—for poor condition and deterioration. (6) Engine controls—for defects, improper travel, and improper safetying. (7) Lines, hoses, and clamps ... mounting. (10) All systems—for improper installation, poor general condition, defects, and insecure attachment. (11) Cowling—for cracks, and defects. (e) Each person performing an annual or 100-hour inspection shall inspect (where applicable) the following components of the landing…

During starting, the boost pump forces fuel through a bypass in the engine-driven pump to the metering device. Once the engine-driven pump is rotating at sufficient speed, it takes over and delivers fuel to the metering device ... specified pressure. The airframe fuel system begins with the fuel tank and ends at the engine fuel system. The engine fuel system usually includes the engine-driven pumps and the fuel metering systems. In aircraft powered with a reciprocating engine…

typical two-stage turbine engine driven pump is illustrated in Figure 2-60. The impeller, which is driven at a greater speed than the high pressure elements, increases the fuel pressure depending upon engine speed. The fuel is discharged from ... discharge port of the pump. This valve opens at a predetermined pressure and is capable of bypassing the total fuel flow. This allows fuel in excess of that required for engine operation at the time to be recirculated. The bypass…
