2:18 there is no indication in the cockpit about a slide deployment?

I don't think it's needed? Either the door is closed and the slide is stowed, or the door is open and the plane should not move. The situation of door closed, slide deployed is more or less impossible.

[@thevoyager1546]

Yeah, the lower ecam of the A320 only shows you if the slides are Armed/Disarmed and if the doors are opened But all A320’s OW windows are equipped with slides only not rafts.

[@EstorilEm]

@@CuthbertNibbles Uhm, every time the plane is at the gate with the door open, the slide is stowed. He's saying if someone manually opened the door WHILE ARMED, will it give you more than just an open door indication. Since cabin crew has already verified doors armed for departure, you could assume that and open door = slide deployment, but again - I think that's what they are asking, is there something separate? Because who knows, someone COULD have technically disarmed the door then opened it lol. Obviously if it's an over wing exit, the slide is out.

[@CuthbertNibbles]

@@EstorilEm again, why does the pilot need to know the slide is deployed? If the door is open, they must stop the plane, and if the slide is deployed, the door will not close. What time-critical decision would be taken differently if this information were available?

Overwing exit doors are unlocked while taxiing. The lock is a 28V solenoid that locks when powered. The door flight lock will automatically lock during take off, in-flight, landing, and unlock on the ground to allow for opening of the exit in emergency situations. The commands for the flight lock are dependent upon engine speed thrust level position. It also unlocks when power is cut. Once the plane is pressurized, the doors cannot be removed even if unlocked.
