Hello, I got the dassault mercure 100 for FSX Steam with all textures, I flown for a while but whenever I fly the plane right now (after a day I got the plane) the left engine keeps failing, and the fire hydrant says engine on fire. I cleared it on failures (I do not fly with failures, ever) but no change. it first occured when I was doing a 500nm flight and half way the engine failed which I had to divert. anyway to fix this? thanks.

Hello!
Generally, engines overheat when abused during take-off and climbout. You shall not exceed 97% N2 and 630°C EGT. Stay within green ranges. If enough damage is done to the engines, they will reach a point of no return, when no matter how much you lower the throttle, they will keep overheating.
You may have been flying within the safe limits until your external temperature increased and put you above the safe thresholds.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEP .... good advice Mario  Maintain high power for too long (or exceed power limitations limits) and one "WILL" blow an (or both) engine/s .... and which (like the DMFS BAC ONE-ELEVEN) is precisely what this simulation is programmed to replicate  For LOCKHEEDL1011C2 .... here's an extract from my forum based online manual for the AMD MERCURE 100 (see SECTION 4.00) .... In case you've missed this manual or are otherwise unaware of it .... please use the following link .... DASSAULT MERCURE 100 INSTALLATION & HANDLING NOTEStonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/8797/amd-mercure-installation-handling-notesEverything one needs to know in order to get the very best out of this AMD MERCURE 100 simulation is discussed within each of 5 sections within the above-linked manual. Mario has produced a "SUPERB" simulation, but, it must be "flown strictly by the book" .... and which requires adherence to both flight-planning and the recommended procedures. Mark C AKL/NZ |

That's precisely what's supposed to happen. It's been a while since I last flew the MERCURE "in depth" .... but .... I suspect if one allows the remaining engine to run at excessive power for too long (too long after the first engine failure) then it too will likely eventually fail as well. Once an engine failure has occurred it won't be possible to restart that engine inflight or within the same FS session .... for reason of a damaged engine scenario being simulated.Again .... that's what's supposed to happen If you can get safely back on the ground again after such an engine failure and shut down the remaining good engine normally .... then temporarily exit the MERCURE 100 in favor of a default MSFS aircraft, then, reload and reconfigure the MERCURE 100 once again, or alternatively just shutdown and restart FS and launch another MERCURE 100 flying session, then either of these actions will restore everything back to normality again.
