Not really. On the T56 engine TIT = (T)urbine (I)nlet (T)empreture.

Yes really, on every jet engine TIT is Total Inlet Temperature.

Yep.

I ask because I came across an interesting paragraph in the T56-A-15
service manual yesterday. Went like this...

Same for any MM, the data does not need to be accurate.

grief !
so if that were the case, then a generic manual would suffice.
heck ! why bother, why not use the manual for a 1957 ford zeypher instead


Any engine temperature station using more than one probe is a Total.

That is how it works.
