Watch how to start up and A330 with the APU from cold & dark. With any aircraft, you can't go too fast. Otherwise, you could have potential problems.

    I was getting late for work, thanks for the tutorial, I am now on the runway ready for take-off. Thanks

    As a A320, A330, and A350 typed pilot, you missed a couple things. Fire test first and foremost, check the fire detection and suppresison system is functional. You can connect all the batteries in quick sucession, they're all being connected to the same DC BUS as long as all systems are in normal operation. You do not need to wait for the display to read "FLAP OPEN', Airbus recommend at least 3 seconds, that's all. Love the video though, miss the simpler airbusses haha. So many more tests and procedures we have to do on the A350

    Always check the left seat for loose change too. It's actually the first item on the checklist.
  • That must be so exhilarating starting up and flying a big beast like this 😊

    Y'all make it seem so easy and make me really want to take the plunge and get my pilots licenses like i've been dreaming of since i was a youngin. Thanks.
  • Before starting the APU remember to always test the APU’s fire detection system.
  • @cjmillsnun
    APU fire test? Should always be done before starting APU from cold and dark
  • @srcuso

    Where is the blinker fluid refill reservoir ?

    Meanwhile in the A220 (BCS3). Turn on batteries, turn apu switch to on for 3sec (self test), and the airplane is powered on
  • Instructions unclear, My A330 started hovering vertically above the ground. passengers not happy
  • @deanb3033
    Why does exhaust gas rise so high the dramatically drop when starting? Probably a dumb question, but just curious. Thanks
  • @ifsg359
    Would really like to see more cold and dark startup videos of other aircrafts without commentary, may I ask if it’s possible in the future?
