ATLANTA- Airbus has formally requested an exception from the FAA to permit the installation of a front cabin with doors on A321neo aircraft intended for a "U.S. operator (Possibly Delta Air Lines)." The proposed configuration includes 16 Business Class seats, 12 Premium Economy seats (referred to as Premium Select), and 120 coach seats. #AirbusA321neo #DeltaA321neo #DeltaAirLines #DeltaAirLinesA321neo #DeltaAirLinesNews #DeltaAirbusA321neo #Deltaairlines #DeltaAirlinesNews #DeltaNews #DeltaNewsroom

I do wish we would move this debate on. Of course a single pilot can fly the plane. Indeed for the majority of the time (IMHO) the aircraft is being flown by no-human pilot. What we need is a way to see how BEST we can manage the situation where a single pilot is sitting in a single space. Once we turn the discussion there - perhaps we can make progress. Will that happen? Doubtful. All I can say is watch out below and in China. #singlepilot #safety #airlines

Airplane manufacturers produce very performant airplanes which bring in the cockpit some of the newest technologies . Unfortunately, for the last three decades, they made choices that do not provide the pilots with the most logical tools and aids to fly efficiently. Strategy, from the beginning, may have been to get rid of pilots, at the end. For instance, on any airbus types: - Pilots do not have access to the thrust easily, so they let the autothrust control speed and are no longer able to pilot trajectory instinctively and precisely. - Controls are not sensitive/responsive to effort, so pilots lose feel of the airplane when handling the aircraft manually. They prefer to let the autopilot do. - On the flight deck, fans make much more noise than jet engines whose instruments are small and not easy to read. - Normal Flight laws are leading pilots far away from the natural laws: On a basic airplane, losing power in a climb attitude will force the airplane to nose down as it is trimmed to maintain angle of attack. That may be considered 100% safe. On any airbus type, losing power won’t provoke any attitude change and the angle of attack will increase approaching stall. Then the protection will come into action… That may surprise the crew who, then, could be at fault when responding! - Joy sticks may be operated in opposite directions and the result isn’t easily definite.., Year after year, pilots lose their skill and are being replaced by autonomous systems. Private pilots on light aircraft gain more handling experience after a short ride than the airline pilot on long haul duty. This strategy is certainly driven by profit but will it maintain safety? That is the true question.

We know how many times we, pilots are causing incidents/accidents, they say, most of them are caused by us pilots - human factor as we call it. Who will tell to us/media/passengers clearly...how many times we, pilots, humans solved technical failures, avoiding incident or accident, which could have been visible for passengers/media etc.? Only operators/airlines have all statistics, and they should publish them, 'cus current way of communication is giving a fals picture.

I got my first taste of the Airbus A330 very early on in 2006 when Jet Airways bought these to India. One of my earliest memories was standing on the tarmac, on a hot Delhi summer day and doing a transponder wiring modification. I remember being awed by the cockpit layout and the advanced troubleshooting capabilities of the airplane. The A330s remained a big part of the fleet at Qatar Airways too, even making a comeback post COVID. Now years later, I get to reconnect with it's new avatar, the A330NEO. After the A350, it doesn't seem as WOW now (No, I don't mean Weight on Wheel 😊) but this article (link on comments) summarises beautifully the enhancements that the A330 NEO brings to the classic workhorse, many inspired by the advanced designs of the A350. I realise more now as well that it's unfair to compare it to the A350. It's only fair that we see the benefits it brings as compared to the A330CEO. A mistake we do in life as well. Our only competition is our past self. Our only aspiration, is our future self. Theodore Roosvelt famously said " Comparison is the thief of Joy" PS: Love that my favorite "eyeliner" from the A350 is also now showcased on the A330 NEO as well. 😀 #aviation #a330neo #innovation

A top Airbus official said the quiet part out loud – their plan is to bring pilotless aircraft to market, downplaying safety risks and showing unwarranted confidence in technology and automation. Pilots know better than most anyone that technology–no matter how sophisticated—can fail. This is one of the many reasons why there are two pilots on the flight deck at all times. Two pilots serve as the backup to technology on the flight deck by bridging gaps and adapting to unforeseen situations in real-time. And that’s why aviation safety starts with two highly-trained and qualified pilots at the controls of every commercial airline flight.
