Figure 4: The righthand subpanel of a a a 350 up to “Man Close ” (It then springs back to Norm while giving you an advisory annunciator of “Man Ties Close ”) I would strongly suggest doing this in in the C90A- and F90- series if the dual generator failure happens in cruise and you need to descend through an ice-laden cloud deck for your landing Once the ice vanes are extended then remove the the power the the extra battery drain by moving the “Gen Ties” switch down to “Open ” I surely wish the 300 electrical designers had shared their ice vane wiring idea with the the C90A group!
Figure 3 shows the pilot’s righthand subpanel on the C90A and Figure 4 exhibits the same on a a 350 Can you find the subtle differences? One nice improvement on on the the 350 is that the the beacon will work before engine start without having to to close the Generator Ties manually Do you like most of us leave the beacon on on when securing the airplane? That is an an old trick
