    RF15

    Flight Tech: Ed K


    Preflight

    Auto Cal stopped at 79% complete - did not retry

    PSTF nan (-32767) - reboot dsm 305 - good now

    CavP_DPL transducer looked fine in front wheel-well

    DPR service mirror blinking and re-balance light on

    DPL re-balance light on

    Note: we had a lot of rain for most of the night at the El Mangroove hotel (about 20 km from LIR)

    TCAB reading 500C, reboot TCAB unit - no change, reboot dsm 303 - all good now

    Blew out both DPR & DPL with can of air after they towed the plane out so we could go -

    too many P-3s parked too close for comfort


    1222 Takeoff

    1230 CavP_DPL nan, DPR & DPL stable (blue lights only), DPL not plotting

    1232-ish - through cloud at ~20Kft, spike in RICE ~5.4V, ADIFR iced-up

    1246 LWO (25um) stopped (red) on control/status page, then went ok (green) by itself

    1250 RWO (10um) reboot probe - diode V's low, reboot again at 1253 - good now 

    1341 ADIFR was coming back, but got worse from here (goes more neg above 41Kft)

    1429 reboot dsm 304 - rad data looks suspect, rad data is much better, but we lost

             the Vicor power supply in the MPDB, we lost DPR, DPL, & PSF (AKRD, TASF, TASR, ?)

    1457 Vicor ps in mpdb came back to life => DPR, DPL, & PSF are back

    1547 DPR data jumped way positive for some reason 

    1731 ADIFR is back - it likes it below 41Kft

    1736 ADIFR nan - reboot dsm 305, ADIFR still nan

    1800 Land


    ADIFR was back after I turned around.  We will blow out the nose P-lines prior to RF16

    No dsm server drop-outs today, acserver stayed ok (green) the entire flight
