My Jet is fixed! Flying to Jackson Hole to meet up with CitationMax

[Applause] [Music] so [Music] i'm broke well at least the plane is broke and no it didn't have anything to do with one of my landings yesterday as you know we were taxiing out for uh jackson hole to meet up with our buddy citation max and i noticed a problem with the pitch trim so turned back around came in and pulled the tail of the airplane off on this airplane the actual the horizontal stab actually completely moves it's the trimmable surface and uh that is done by in the cockpit by my thumb raising the uh nose or lowering the nose which adjusts the uh horizontal stab on the airplane so the pitch trim function was not working and so basically the airplane's not flyable so we narrowed it down to two places uh this is the electronic control unit the box that the signal is received into and then the signal goes out to tell the tale to move it actually has some leds here that give you error codes and we are getting an air code which indicates either the box is bad or the actual motor that moves the horizontal stab is bad we've checked this box out there's like five other premiers here at the field so we borrowed one from another airplane checked it out had the same problem so we have uh narrowed it down to the pitch trim actuator which we have a new part here today to swap that out so that is what we're in the midst of doing right now so let's uh keep an eye on this and see how things progress today and hopefully we'll make it to jackson hole yet this afternoon okay here's the other part i was talking about which is the pitch trim actuator it's actually two systems in here there's a main system and then there's a standby system i assume they're kind of geared together in some way but uh this is the component that goes up in up in the top of the tail there so we'll see we'll see if this is it go ahead [Music] that was like the most perfectly timed i'm a former air force pilot with over 1 000 hours in the f-16 today i run a medical equipment business and use my private jet to visit customers or travel with my family and friends i video some of those flights and share them here my name is greg and this is my youtube channel executive traffic niner foxtrot

frequency change is approved and just report back on this frequency no later than 1832 everybody sets their altimeter to standard which is 2992 a chicago build 842 checking in three trio okay so the problem that had made 42 chicago starting a day late i had yesterday when i was taxiing out i lost my pitch trim so my ability to trim the horizontal stab so that is a go no-go item so we came back in and ran some uh fault codes and it was indicating that the electronic control unit that sends a signal up to the pitch trim actuator or the electronic control unit itself was bad we troubleshot those two components found those to be fine and the crazy thing about this is is that with the pitch trim fail i did not get a red light in the panel usually i would get a red light in the panel that says pitch trim fail number two echo charlie the next sector did offer uh going all the way so i did not get that i like uh you can make the request as soon as you check it out it really kind of threw us off in the troubleshooting three point four two one through three and long story short after about six hours of tracing wiring back we discovered that the connection for this system to the main power bus we uh disconnected it it was a basically a cannon plug and reconnected it and everything started working again so uh must have been some kind of bad spurious connection in there um and now everything seems to be working perfectly so we are back in business thanks to the guys at first week's jet center for some awesome troubleshooting we had actually ordered parts preemptively and these guys very wisely didn't uh start swapping parts out they they were investigating the inputs into those parts just to make sure they were getting good inputs and when they realized that they weren't they uh figured that there was no use to change parts if the parts aren't getting a good input doesn't matter if the parts good or bad so i saved me a ton of money cost me a little bit of time but that is okay safely on our way to jackson hall at the moment chicago hello star trek 12 39.5 climbing 4-0-0 star trek 12 chicago sunriders okay so really not much weather all the way there let's take
