8.1 General
Two Pratt & Whitney PW-610F-A engines, each producing 900 pounds of takeoff
thrust, are aft-mounted on the airplane. The engine is a two-spool (N1 and N2), high-
bypass turbofan. The N
turbine. The N
compressor, driven by a single stage high pressure axial turbine. The N
rotors are mechanically independent and counter rotate to reduce the effects of
torque. An accessory gearbox connected to the N
fuel pumps, and oil pumps. The PW 610F-A engines do not use thrust reversers.
The engines are controlled by two dual-channel Full Authority Digital Engine Control
(FADEC) units through the dual Aircraft Computer Systems (ACS).
All engine parameters are displayed on the MFD. Primary parameters are
continuously displayed, while secondary parameters are displayed on the Engine
(ENG) synoptic page.
Each engine has individual flight deck controls. Thrust is set by positioning the
throttles, either automatically by the autothrottle system or manually by the pilot. The
engine start sequence is automatic when an engine start switch is placed to the
ON/START position.
