Is there ever any reason to have both pumps on at the same
time??
Dana Overall
I think you'll find that
most pilots like to have both on at low altitudes, as Paul mentioned. I
actually run both of mine all the time, except when I'm transferring fuel
(because the extra return flow makes it hard for my transfer pump to
work). I'd personally like to find out about a pump failure when I check
them individually during the run-up.
The only other concern
about the way you're going to hook yours up, would be if there is any chance
that the other pump won't instantly produce pressure. You might get a
momentary loss of fuel pressure when you switch. You've got that HUGE
panel on the -7, so you can afford space for one more switch
:-)
Cheers,
Rusty
