how do they put airbus in reverse like how in a boeing 737 they have a reverse lever, in this plane do they just continue to slide the throttles back pass idle?
@ cruxader27 the purpose for priority swich is to give the flying pilot full control for his stick even non flying pilot trying to move his stick so the plane will take the command from thr flying pilot only
have you guys tried to land on macadam surfaced runway in Toulouse? isn't that the runway is rough? i tried to land planes on macadam surfaced runways in flight simulator, and its like landing on soft ground. HOw about landing in real situation is it rough too?
The old macadam runway in Toulouse (32L-14R) was initially built for Concorde when she first flew in 1969. The runway has then been upgraded to the current version, 75m wide (instead of the previous' 60m), bituminous concrete, for the A380's first flight in 2005. That's the runway we land on in the video.
I've been using macadam surfaced runways, and except for the noise it doesn't make so much of a difference. Landings can take a bit longer though.
@guitarplayerforu i'm not certain but i think it flares automatically. 20 is the altitude and it's warning them that its retarding the throttle (closing) because it knows they are landing. I think there was an accident where the autopilot was getting faulty (low) altitude readings and it retarded the throttle, but didnt tell them, and they stalled and crashed. SO now it tells you that it's retarding the throttle. But i could be wrong about all of that - please correct me if so
It's also to allow your eyes to become night adapted. They also dim the lights in the cabin so that if there is an emergeny evacuation the passengers eyes are also dark adapted and they can see something of where they are going in the darkness.
I think he says 5. If you haven't touch down after he has said for three times "retard", then he says five wich means you're between 0 and 5 ft above the runway.
I pilot "small" planes only, but have just started my commercial pilot lessons (ATPL). Still a long way to go though ...

@cruxader27 it over rides the computers to the pilot can fly manually if he has to or wants to depending on conditions.

Is that Air FRANCE?
I thought Air FRANCE uses only the old style GPWS voice in their A320 family. Or do they use both voice types?
Thanks for answer
AVIATIONSOUNDEXPERT 2 years ago
Yes this is Air France, and that's the usual voice used on the 320 family.
However they still operate some A320-100, not sure about the GPWS voice on those though ...

On take-off and landing, like in the cabin, they turn down the lights to be able to see the outside clearly. Otherwise the panels are too bright ..

It's also to allow your eyes to become night adapted. They also dim the lights in the cabin so that if there is an emergeny evacuation the passengers eyes are also dark adapted and they can see something of where they are going in the darkness.

thank you

Hi !
I think he says 5. If you haven't touch down after he has said for three times "retard", then he says five wich means you're between 0 and 5 ft above the runway.

golfcharlie232 3 years ago
hey :)
nice, wich school ?
uploader1010 3 years ago
Yes that's just about it. The '5' is from the radio altimeter and tell the pilot that he is 5 feet above the level of the runway.
Cat10980 2 years ago
@golfcharlie232 when he says retard does that mean pull the nose up ready to touch the back wheels down first?
