My AeroWeek #3

Hello, welcome to this third post of my blog about my year in Globalia. This week we worked again doing repairs on the hydraulic system of the Turbocommander. This week we have finished the practice of the auxiliary hydraulic pump.

After that, we started the practice with other aircraft, the Piper Seneca. We measured the hydraulic level of the system and jacked the plane. We jacked the plane because we need to make the test of the hydraulic pump and see if the Landing Gear could retract and extend.

By using a portable power supply we can apply voltage to the plane to make the pump test.
Unfortunately, the pump is not operative and the Landing Gear couldn't retract and extend because without high hydraulic pressure it's impossible its operation. In addition, we put sealant to the rubber of a register so that it closed properly.

Meanwhile, in the soccer team we had two games. The first against the Unión Latina of Manacor, which we won 1-6 quite easy and with a hat trick of one of our players. However, the second game against Atletico de Marratxí we lost 4-1 in a match in which we deserved more, but defensive mistakes hurt us too much.

This has been my week explained in summary, I hope you liked it and that it was good to read.

Thanks and see you soon!
