vent open and I opened the vent and opened the in­
let snorkel and set the recirc at 45 degrees in
pretty fast order. But, all the fancy calculations
by the ECS people are dead wrong, because there
isn' t enough in that repress or the o2 HIGH RATE
to keep up with that differential drop off.
We
got fumes too, but not many.
Boy, I dind't think they were hardly noticeable,
at all.
It was noticeable .
Just a musty smell,
But it was noticeable . I 'm suxe
the o2 HIGH RATE and the REPRESS
it helped to have
on all the way down.
But then the one thing that we did do then at 2000.
We closed it back up.
Closed it back up and left
t he REPRESS and o2 HIGH RATE on, so that I expect
that we had a little bit of delta pressuxe in the
cabin when we touched.
Oh, we did.
We had about a pound.
It was very
sl owly coming up.
It was up .....
We had about a pound.
Now I think this kept a l ot of the fumes out.
