POSTS STORIES REELS

For today's maintenance reel, we're removing, overhauling and reinstalling a galley oven on the Boeing 737. I shared something similar a few weeks ago, but this time we're heading inside the overhaul shop with @aceaviations 🔧✈️
Most aircraft components can be overhauled and then reinstalled for another life on the airplane, and the oven is a perfect example. Enjoy!

BOEING 737 GROUND TAXI PROCEDURE EXPLAINED:

0:00 - Overhead check: WIPER PARK, ENGINE START selector to BOTH, Ground Power check.

0:02 - Taxi initiation: Using NOSEWHEEL STEERING TILLER (78° authority) combined with differential thrust. Notice thrust levers advanced to ~35% N1 to break away inertia.

0:04 - Directional control: RUDDER PEDALS + DIFFERENTIAL BRAKING. Captain uses tiller for sharp turns (< 20kts), pedals for fine control. Feet on top of pedals = brakes.

0:10 - Engine monitoring: EEC checking N1, N2, Fuel Flow stable. No hung start.

This is why taxi is critical phase - 70% of runway incursions happen here. Precision matters.

Active leak check on a Boeing 737 with the CFM LEAP-1B. 🔧✈️

An active leak check means the check is done with the engine running, at idle. It's a common procedure, and it works much the same on other aircraft and engines. Some engine components can only be leak checked while the engine is running, since a static check won't show what happens under real operating conditions. A special fixture can also be installed on the drain mast to count the drops and measure the leak rate.

Following the procedures is mandatory, and extra caution is always required around a running engine. Safety first, every time. 🦺

For today's maintenance reel: igniter replacement on the CFM LEAP-1B from a Boeing 737 MAX. The 1A is similar. Easy access, simple job, just a bit of prep and testing. The AMM is never far away. Really more convenient than the PW1100G engine, you'll see later!
Not a bad task for a night shift.
