@@bigsmoke7054 these are a ton of switches, relays, contactors and other magic electric stuff. why you dont hear it in the a330 i dont know. maybe the primary electrical power distribution (pepdc) is sitting somewhere else

literally no noise compared to older airbus models :)

Yea, fortunately the A320 with LCD screens and NEO versions are more quiet than the first version of the A320 but this A350 is more quiet than the more quiet of the A320 :)

[@UltimateAlgorithm]

Yeah, this is exactly my mind when the batteries are turned on. On A320 you either need GPU or APU for the displays to boot-up. Yet here only batteries, I even double check if the GPU button pressed or not.

@@johankarlsson1866 I don't think he navigated away from the APU screen, it appeared to happen automatically because of warnings popping up.

[@l33wan]

Was told the batt on and off sequence for this aircraft must be closely followed to prevent DM. Switching on is left to right and off right to left. You don't seem to be following it. Any messages encountered so far ?

[@dennisvijverbergbrakesrele6098]

Hi, battery on sequence when starting APU isn’t a big deal, but you have a sequence when starting up and shutting down aircraft on external power. Just to have the least amount of relay switching. But all power up can cause DM’s even if you keep to the correct sequence.

[@l33wan]

@@dennisvijverbergbrakesrele6098 Just got my license on the A350 and this was drilled by the instructors. The SAA video on A350 reiterates this point as well. Can I check for the ext power. Ext 2 is the first and last to be switched on and off ? GPU is rarely used in my side.

[@ArmyofSeaturtles]

@@l33wan ugh battery sequence and ext power sequence was drilled into me too along with fueling and setting parking brake procedures

[@dennisvijverbergbrakesrele6098]

Hi, the sequence I us is when using ext power batt 1,2,3,4,ext 2 and ext 1, when turning aircraft off ext 2, batt 1,2,3,4 ext 1. With this you should have the least amount of power transfers. But experience tells that all sequences sometimes create DM’s you have to deal with, and yes it’s just better to have APU on all the time.

[@M4A1Nerve]

You are correct. Airbuses documents say the same and that is what we do at Delta too. From cold and dark, its left to right, APU battery, APU start. To turn off, its a "G" pattern. Bat 2, emer bat 2, emer bat 1, bat 1 and APU battery. Two GPU connections is required to run the full plane and from there, you just need the batteries on, and a normal APU start can be done.

[@davidsocorroromero5824]

On ground and Eng1&2 OFF and APU available but APU Bleed PB OFF, ¿Crossbleed valve will be closed with the selector in AUTO mode? Thanks for the feedback

[@dennisvijverbergbrakesrele6098]

[@tomstravels520]

How come the A350 doesn’t have an ATT HDG switching knob like the Air Data one? How do you switch to IR 3 if you loose 1 or 2?

[@djonymorais]

The A350 has 3 ADIRS switches on the upper panel (OFF, ATT, NAV), and each ADIRS has a turnoff push button. That switch you see between the ECAM screen and the left side EFIS is the AIR DATA SELECTOR. On AUTO mode, it it automatically reconfigures PFD and ND information source, based on the availability of the ADIRS. IF the switch is on either CAPT ON BKUP or F/O ON BKUP, the computers provide backup speed and altitude information, provided by the engine’s FADEC system, which will give you speed info with a 10KTS error margin, and altitude with a 500 ft error margin. Please have in mind that this is the last case scenario, because even if the aircraft loses or rejects the 3 ADIRS information, it will collect information from the ISIS (standby instruments) and present it at the pilots PFDs, and the airplane’s controls will revert to ALTERNATE LAW ( autopilot will still be available, but with no managed modes, but still capable of performing instrument approaches). However, if the aircraft loses all ADIRS, and the information from the stby instruments, only then it will colect information from the FADECs, and the airplane’s controls will revert to DIRECT LAW ( no autopilot, no auto-trim, you will be pretty much flying a 200 ton Cessna 152). I’ve been flying the A350 for 3 years now, and I’m still amazed by how awesome it is.

[@tomstravels520]

@@djonymorais so in previous aircraft ADIRU 1 provided information to the captains display, ADIRU 2 went to the FO then ADIRU 3 was an unseen backup which could be switched to if either ADR or IRS stopped working but they were on 2 separate switches. One to switch to ADR 3 and one to switch to IR 3. So what you’re saying is now it’s all automatic for both IR and ADR? If in the auto position? Cause I’ve seen older A350’s with the ATT HDG selector switch. And is the backup not done by GPS/AOA too like it was in the BUSS on older aircraft?

[@djonymorais]

@@tomstravels520 I don’t remember having ever seen that ATT/HDG NORM switch on the A350, only on the A330, right in front of the thrust levers. As far as ADIRS, same thing on the A350. ADIRU 1 for capt, 2 for F/O and 3 for backup, that can automatically switch to Capt or F/O in case of ADR 1(2) failure, and a ECAM message may pop up, or you can prompt up a so called not sensed ECAM procedure, witch replaces most of QRH procedures( with autopilot, managed modes; CAT2 capabilities, normal law, etc), but in case you lose 3 ADIRS, you can still revert to stby instruments on PFD ( autopilot, selected modes, alternate law, etc), and in case you lose everything, instead of backup speed scale (like the A330), you get information from the FADECs, with the aforementioned error margins, but direct law. The airplane still flies like a dream, but no auto-trim. I fly both the A350 and the A330 where I work, and it is amazing how the A350 managed to make the A330(an already extremely advanced airplane) look like stone age technology.

[@tomstravels520]

@@djonymorais so basically the switching to ADR or IR3 is now just done automatically instead of having the switches like A320/A330 as the aircraft can detect when it is getting bad data or failed indications etc. And the ATT HDG switch on the A350 might have been concept or pre entry into service images From what I’ve seen they’re looking at bringing this technology to the A320 and A330 NEO’s kzbin.info/www/bejne/gISTdmVvh9KCjpY
