    aye, just copying Boeings Autobrake settings :diablo:

    Not at all…on the Airbus it’s much more clever 😉

    No the picture is only available to us.

    The autobrake selector is different on the 500 and 600. It is still a push button to select RTO for take off but a rotary selector for landing settings. The 300 autobrakes quite nicely with the old system so I think this is just Airbus upgrading their products rather than fixing a problem.

    I don’t think the 320 shape carries colour schemes very well. One of a few exceptions to this IMO was Excalibur. This does look like 2 patched together.

    While the 757 still climbs superbly well at MTOW (113.4 Tonnes) this flight probably wasn’t near that. I we assume that the cabin was loaded to the max then it’s weight without fuel would not be greater than 83.5 Tonnes. If we assume the aircraft was going to fly for four hours then the crew would depart with approx 20 Tonnes of fuel so assuming the worst case scenario the aircraft is most probably at least 10 Tonnes under MTOW. The terrain in the picture probably demands that no take off derate can be applied to the take off thrust setting so hence we get a cracking shot of what the type does best.

    I’ve always thought that tower looks like a helter-skelter.

    Shame things didn’t work out differently…I was in Delhi while you were in Mumbai.
