Fine Pitch Circuit test button, Viscount 701

[Anders Samuelsson]

Hi,

A small question, I cannot find the fine pitch circuit test switches on the model for the 701 Viscount, any idea where it is? Thanks in advance!

Hi Anders,

I haven't done a dedicated V701 panel, but my panel which represents the early or non Americanised 700s has a switch in the centre of the coaming panel and associated dual filament amber warning lamp labelled PROP LOCK TEST. The switch is centre sprung and is held up for -ve test and down for +ve test. The lamp lights if a fault exists. There is a similar arrangement on the Americanised panel on the captain's side of the coaming. Hope this helps.

cheers
