Abstract: An aircraft fuel scavenge system incorporates a scavenge pump receiving fuel from a center tank and depositing the fuel in a wing tank. A water separator receives fuel through an inlet tube providing a plurality of momentum changes to incoming fuel, the water separator having a fuel outlet connected to the scavenge pump and a water outlet. A water manifold is connected from the water outlet to an input to a fuel supply line to an engine.

Abstract: A fire seal (52) for an aircraft propulsion system including at least one mating plate pair (54) formed between a nozzle body (44) and an outer structure (24) and a support pylon (26). The mating plate pairs (54) each include an upper plate row (58) and a lower plate row (60), both rows extending in an arc (66) about an upper region (56) of the propulsion system, with a vertical overlap (88) existing between the upper and lower plate rows. A gap (90) exists between the upper plate row (58) and lower plate row (60) of each mating plate pair (54), preferably at all times. A seal region (62) exists between the forward-most mating pair and the aft-most mating pair. A pressure equalization mechanism controls pressure between the area forward of the seal region (62) and the area aft of the seal region (62). A number of endplates (110) are positioned at various longitudinal locations near the lateral ends of the mating plate pairs.

Abstract: Flight deck information warning system for notifying the flight crew of abnormal engine operating conditions in the sub-idle region. The warning system is responsive to signals representative of engine exhaust temperature, engine core rotor speed, total air temperature, engine fuel flow and, airframe calibrated airspeed.

Abstract: A logic controlled APR system including arming logic, engine failure detection circuits, and test circuit means for testing system operating condition without engine operation. The logic controlled APR system detects an engine failure in a multi-engine aircraft and provides solenoid controlled increased fuel flow to the remaining normally operating engines, and includes a disarm mode in the event of an RTO (rejected take-off).
