It seems that JB did not listen to Lewis Zurgen (was rude to Lewis when he tried to help) the original owner of hk36 GXD and he is the one that put in the accumulator solenoid for a real reason to hold pressure in system after a long soaring flight so as to unfeather prop and thus pilot had little chance of learning and pilot did not have an understanding of Bings and throttle setting for start.
I am afraid there are people out there who can pass a flight test but not really understand why they are doing a certain proceedure Another example is taxiing out with electric fuel pump OFF (which checks mechanical) and then ele pump ON just before rolling. JB just left it ON - am I too fussy or is that not done anymore?
