What is the maximum starting ITT for the King Air 350?

In the King Air 350, the maximum starting Interstage Turbine Temperature (ITT) is 1000°C. This limit is crucial during engine start procedures as exceeding it could lead to engine damage. ITT is a key indicator of the thermal load on the engine during start-up, and adhering to the specified limits ensures the integrity of the engine components by preventing overheating.

Understanding these limitations is essential for the safe operation of the aircraft, as exceeding the maximum starting ITT could cause deformation or damage to the turbine materials, ultimately affecting engine performance and reliability. Operating within these limits is a fundamental aspect of pilot training and aircraft operations to maintain safety and ensure the longevity of the aircraft engines.
