Can someone help me out here, what would a person need that kind of pressure for? Or is it a typo?




Some old airplanes use high pressure compressed air to start.

I once helped a guy start a Yakolev, IIRC he said it required at least 170 bar. He used a scuba tank, but that compressor would be a much more fitting start option if a whole line of those trainer planes needed starting.
