Touchdown! Greaser!
So I fixed another airplane thing today, and again got to thinking about how it all played out. The route to achieve a fix is what often interests me more than the fix itself.
We have all read about problems here and the multitude of offered solutions which follow. Usually we do not hear back to learn the result or what would have been the best approach to solve it after all was said and done.
This was a possible ignition or sensor problem. The engine (IO520K) was running fine.
The first symptom was there is a flashing yellow status light on my P1000 Digital Tach during the last flight. It would play a sort of morse code; ditdit, dit, ditditdit, daah, daah ditdit, but I never could see a pattern. Also the RPM indication would periodically roam. What do you think would be a reasonable first step to tackle this?
