Hi guys,
Trying to figure something out. The A320 has a RAT. Why did Sully turn on the APU if the RAT is providing blue HYD and power? Also heard that the FBW steps down to alternate/direct mode while on the RAT while the APU will allow the plane to stay in normal mode. How did that help US 1549 during this ditching?
Thanks.
There is an airbus beluga currently in Melbourne florida, delivering satellites to SpaceX, I believe. Does anyone know when it is scheduled to depart? I am local and want to see her in the air
Please share your thoughts
A little bit of excitement for an otherwise quiet airport
If we were to say gut the plane and fill it with as much extra fuel as it could carry, could it make it all the way around the planet?
Hello,
I have just been hired as an intern as a Skywise Application Developer. I would like to know if anyone has had a similar internship or has worked in a similar department (quality, engineering). I would like to know what to expect. Thank you.
The plane that will take me back to the homeland from Changi’s terminal 4. This very aircraft, RP-C3342, a 2013-built Airbus A330CEO, was later painted to a new livery between circa January - March 2019, where I rode it for the second time (first time in a new livery) from Manila to Tokyo Narita.
It remained with Cebu until October 2021 where it went to Avolon, then to Hi Fly Malta the next month, then to FlyPOP c. 2022, and finally landed into the hands of her new owner, US-Bangla Airways as S2-ALA. It started flying with them since April of 2024, and has operated with ever since.
When THS moving to down position above of the THS Apron fairing opens up and makes space at tail cone. Is there any disadvantages of this situation?
I recently found out that this part of the fuselage on the Airbus A319 is asymmetrical compared to its left side.
Right where the door to the baggage bays is, it seems to be shorter.
¿Why is this?
I was watching the flaps on taxi out and approach, landing.
This fairing was jumping all around whenever the flaps were down.
Reported and showed to a different crew captain as my crew bailed too fast to catch and he said if that was shown to him on his plane he would have maintenance investigate prior to flight.
However he declined to take the tail number or flight number and said * I * should report it to maintenance lol. Really? I don't work for Spirit lol
i flew on the a380 before and i like it
i also like how its a double decker plane
To me, it’s gonna be the buzzsaw during takeoff and a combination of the APU and brake fans of the A320 Family during boarding/deplaning. How about you?
(Have an A320 pic for today)
Flying an Airbus 330 and saw this. Does anyone know what this part of the airplane is?
Also we were on the runway about to takeoff and then suddenly decelerated and stopped because apparently a cargo door was open, FWIW
Hi guys!
I'm a student at Columbia Business School. For one of my final projects, I'm looking at the aerospace and defense industries through the lens of the carbon composite value chain. I'm specifically looking at upstream companies like Hexcel, Toray, Teijin, etc. A huge portion of these companies' aerospace revenue comes from commercial OEMs like Boeing and Airbus. I'd love to get feedback on the outlook (near term choppiness, long term positivity?). Any vectors of growth or clouds of doom on the horizon? Boeing's certainly had a tough fall, but things look a bit brighter. I'd love to get your feedback.
Are there any current or former employees who would want to jump on a two minute call? It would be hugely helpful to my project.
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
S
Hello Airbus Community,
I am an aerospace graduate with a specialization in systems and control, currently preparing for an interview for the Flight Control Law Designer position at Airbus Commercial Aircraft.
I would appreciate any insights you can provide about the typical challenges and projects an engineer in this role works on. Detailed examples would be especially helpful to help me understand what to expect and to prepare effectively for my interview.
P.S: Any advice or tips for the interview would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much!
I have an interview for the AI placement (12.5 months) next week and I need some advice on how to prepare for it. This is my first interview. What kind of technical and behavioral questions can I expect? Should I practice leetcode or more theoretical stuff for the technical portion?
I ready everywhere that Cathay Airbus A350 have been grounded because of fire/smoke coming out from engines (risky business here).
So are they being fixed or not yet? What was the cause of the fire/smoke?
Airbus is sigma rizz company indeed
Hey guys, I purchased A380-800 on MSFS. I am unable to figure out how to turn on A/P navigation. If someone can help me please.
Hi, a320neo has a range of 3000nm and ACJ320neo has a range of 6000nm. With that logic, if a321xlr has a range of 4700nm, how will be the range of ACJ321XLR?? Could it be atleast 7000nm?
Does Airbus offer such configuration od a321xlr for a private buyer?
The first XLR is currently on its delivery flight to Iberia 🎉
