Narrative

HOLDING SHORT AT RWY 12 IN WATERLOO; IA; DOING TKOF BRIEFING; NOTICED ATTN GETTER LIGHTS; PRESSED OUT; SAW RIGHT OIL CAP LIGHT ON; NOTICED RIGHT OIL PRESSURE GAUGE GOING TO 0; PULLED RIGHT FEATHER LEVER TO SHUT DOWN ENG (ENG WAS ALREADY SHUTTING DOWN). TAXIED BACK TO GATE; DEPLANED PAX AND BAGS. CALLED MEM MAINT; TALKED TO #2 MAN IN MAINT. HE SAID HE FELT IT WAS A FLAMEOUT DUE TO EXCESSIVE WINDS IN WATERLOO ON THE GND; BLOWING INTO THE TAILPIPE EXTINGUISHING THE FIRE. HE SAID IN HIS 3 YRS EXPERIENCE WITH THESE ENGS THAT IT WAS A PRETTY NORMAL THING AND IT HAPPENED A LOT. HE TOLD ME TO RESTART ENG AND MONITOR GAUGES AND RPT BACK. I RESTARTED THE ENG. EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL (RAN IT ABOUT 25 MINS); TALKED TO MAINT AGAIN; HE ASKED ME IF THERE WERE ANY WRITEUPS. I SAID NO. HE SAID THAT I WAS THROUGH WITH HIM AND I SHOULD CALL OPS AND SEE WHAT THEY WANTED ME TO DO. I CALLED OPS; SPOKE WITH DISPATCH; LAUGHED TOGETHER ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED; THEN HE TOLD ME TO REPOSITION THE ACFT IN MINNEAPOLIS. I DID SO WITH NO PROBS AND FULL BELIEF IN THE ENG. THE NEXT CAPT REFUSED TO TAKE THE ACFT W/O A WRITEUP AND INSPECTION. I WROTE UP THE ACFT AS WHAT I SAW AND SIGNED IT. MAINT TEST RAN ACFT FOR ABOUT 25 MINS. THE MECH WAS WRITING IN THE ACFT BOOK HE COULD NOT DUPLICATE WHEN THE ENG SPOOLED DOWN AGAIN. I'VE LOST 6 ENGS IN 12 YRS OF FLYING; (ALL IN THE AIR) 2 WITH THIS COMPANY. I FELT THE ENG WAS ALRIGHT.
