Louis Vallance Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Hi Everyone, I was messing around at La Paz with a high altutude departure to get a feel for the A/C performance. I notced that the excess cabin altitude ECAM warning sounds shortly after takeoff. I know that this is normal at such cabin altitudes, but I thought this warning might be suppressed (or perhaps delayed) in the event that the High Alt Landing button is pressed. Below is a video of my experience. The takeoff roll begins at the 04:24 mark. My simple question: Is this stuation normal? If not, is there anything I might've done wrong? Cheers, Louis Quote Link to comment
Mateusz Chalupniczak Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Have you considered looking into fcom? Or at least searching forum? Quote Link to comment
Louis Vallance Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 (edited) Hi Mateusz, Thanks for the answer. Quote Or at least searching forum? I should have clarified in my first post: I have already searched the forum and I already studied the post that you linked (following the engine start and takeoff SOP suggested by Bruno). Quote Have you considered looking into fcom? According to Feras Alloush, who posted in the aforementioned forum post: "... airbus sop does not have special section for high apt apts"; I wouldn’t know about the FCOM. I also searched the Normal Procedures document that comes with the FSLabs installation, and I did not find anything pertinent.

Alessandro Loguercio Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 (edited) Why you put GEN 1 and 2 OFF before start engine? Edit: HYD OFF before start?? Really!? Before you doing High-Alt ops you should restart from thebasic. Edited January 7, 2021 by Alessandro Loguercio Quote Link to comment

I can't remember why I switched them off (I never touch those switches during normal operations). I was either getting Bruno's SOP mixed up, or I was just messing around because, you know, it's a simulator? Cheers, Louis Quote Link to comment
