    Having experienced a strong dirty socks smell coming from Pack 1 with either engine bleed or APU bleed a month ago, it's really interesting to see how engineers troubleshoot our reports. Thanks for uploading!

      That can be a more serious issue. It is impo5for us to get the smell report and all properly filed

    What’s not mentioned is that it’s not just an unpleasant smell when oil gets in the bleed duct. It’s an extremely toxic vaporized oil the gets mixed into the air you’re breathing.

      But first, it needs to get in the packs. If not this is enough otherwise you must perform decontamination of packs as well

    Could you maybe tell me which of the Austrian A320/A321 are running on EIS1 or EIS2 and what Weather Radar and COM Panels the NEOS are equipped with or is that confidential information of Austrian? I am interested in that, cause I would need that information for Liveries in the new Flight Simulator.

    Is it possible to "jumpstart" another airplane with a bleedair-connection, if there's no ASU available?

    • @zeto.r
      @zeto.r  Месяц назад

      There is no such procedure but if you trick APU by pooling one cb to produce 42psi, I guess it can be done

    Hi Thomas, thank you for showing this task.
    I have a question regarding the video.
    Are you allowed to leave the flight deck with the APU running? Is the APU extinguish button at the nose gear sufficient enough for emergencys?
    Thank you in advance!!!

    • @EstorilEm
      @EstorilEm 2 месяца назад +1

      I feel like there are ALWAYS APU's running all over the airport at any given time, during crew changes, maintenance, just sitting waiting for boarding, etc. It's very common without someone on the flight deck. I BELIEVE (on the Airbus aircraft anyways) that there is an APU fire indicator and shutdown/fire bottle switch in the nose gear well area? Maybe even a horn or something? But yeah, ground crew would have easy access to shut it down if anything happened.

    • @zeto.r
      @zeto.r  2 месяца назад +1

      Nice point, let me explain. A320 on the ground and in the air has auto-shutdown protection controlled by a computer. On the ground, we have also an auto extinguish function which in case of fire releases agentin in APU compartment and it is, controlled by a computer

    Waaaaait... so with that check valve tool, could you theoretically use the APU / plane to ground start another plane? Like, if zombies were coming and you couldn't find a huffer or something lol.

    • @zeto.r
      @zeto.r  2 месяца назад

      Most probably yes, you should pull one c/b to trick APU and create higher pressure and then it will be possible

      CPC one of them and APU will lose info about required pressure so it will go full power
