Where are the cup holders?
There’s 2 on each side but they’re out of shot.Where are the cup holders?
Love it. And surprisingly accurate, apart from the spelling.Would this be reasonably accurate for the A380 ?
By the sidewalls. And they’re big enough to hold large water bottles.Where are the cup holders?
The most likely explanation is that he was additional crew, especially as they would seem to have kept the seat unoccupied for him. So, perhaps a check pilot, or if some training was happening, then the ‘safety’ pilot (who really only needs to be there for climb/descent).Just flew TK on an A321NEO LGW-IST and there was no one in 1A on take off. After, a person in flight crew uniform occupied the seat, chilled out, ate etc. Then just before landing, back into the coughpit.
Unlikely given that the company had left a seat open for them. As for whether it’s allowed, that would depend upon the airline and local regulator’s rules.Is it likely he was either Captain or FO and just left his peer to it? Is that even allowed...?
Oh, and note that the 737 pilots have nowhere to eat lunch.I’d say that’s accurate. This helped me with my type rating.
Can you please explain the architecture. There are 3 FCPC (primary) and 2 FCSC (secondary) with FCPC#1 as the "master'. (A330)27-93-01A. Prim 1
I did once know this off the top of my head, but now my brain hurts just thinking about it.Can you please explain the architecture. There are 3 FCPC (primary) and 2 FCSC (secondary) with FCPC#1 as the "master'. (A330)
My understanding is that all 4 FC + Master FC whether primary or secondary operate concurrently in all circumstances. In other words, they are not necessarily redundant and used only in a failure?
So does that mean the Master delegates Flight control tasks to the other slaves during normal ops?.The Master PRIM has the priority to operate AP(s), FDs and A/THR.
I use the flight plan, most times, it's pretty much all it's good for.Oh, and note that the 737 pilots have nowhere to eat lunch.
No, though there are some spoiler panels that are controlled by an individual computer. Loss of that computer means loss of those panels, but I doubt that you'd notice.So does that mean the Master delegates Flight control tasks to the other slaves during normal ops?.
Direct law really relates to the reliability of inputs, so it's possible to be in direct, but with all of the computers functioning. Any one FCC, be it a PRIM or a SEC can fly the aircraft.How many flight control computers are required in Direct law?
Got a reference? In any event, the SECs would be waiting their chance.There was a triple PRIM failure in 2020
Being made of paper, I thought it might have other uses.I use the flight plan, most times, it's pretty much all it's good for.
IIRC I think it was a A330 ?China airlines around 2019-20??Got a reference?
Neither, it's running out of the international terminals.In the FB feed an article about using an A380 for domestic MEL-SYD to cover some flights. As it's a domestic flight can they park it at the domestic terminal? Or will they just park it away from the terminal and bus in 500 pax?
Very interesting read.IIRC I think it was a A330 ?China airlines around 2019-20??
Edit :CI A333 Triple Prim failure Investigation Executive summary in English (original investigaton report in Chinese)
A mate was paxing on it, so I got a heads up. I think it was the first 380 I’ve seen fly past my home in about 4 years.Neither, it's running out of the international terminals.
How does that go with customs and so on? ie. you have to pass through there normally in order to get to the gate.Neither, it's running out of the international terminals.

What are you looking at? It looks normal enough to me.
