    @jampilot25 Sorry by zero i meant the brakes “running out” when no hydraluic power is left, as you said, after the “limited time” is up. Yes you helped qiute a bit. Thank you :) Good luck for your aviatoin career.

    …with both engines off and the person said that there’s only a limited amount of braking with both engines off as hydraluic power isnt supplied. Hence when this pressure runs out, you have no brakes. and i remember seeing the pressure indicator on the top of the gauge moving to the left, to zero.

    @jampilot25 Yeah as i know the RAT comes in in the air when both engines are off as well as APU, because then there’s nothing else! But how can there be a difference between normal and alternate braking if both rely mechanically on the wheels, if you know what i mean? By any chance has the alternate braking got to do with rhe pressure gauge of the wheels situtated to the right on the gear lever? I saw a video once, a tutorial so to speak, on flight simulator, of an airbus going down the runway..

    @jampilot25 Oh so blue can run with both engines switched off? And what’s the alternate brake? Ye ive been in smarcockpit befre. its great but there’s a lot to read! So does the emergency generator come in when neither the engines and neither the APU supply power?

    @jampilot25 Ah cool! Yeah i read about ENG2 and the yellow system. So yellow is used for powering big moving parts like cargo doors and landing gear? What about the green? and what powers the blue?

    Though it is strange the gate is so close to the runway.

    @jampilot25 OK i guess you right! What i also noticed at the beginnning of filming is that the turning ND shows that he is indeed being pushed back. I also just noticed that while the ND is turning, the captain is moving the rudder pedals, so i guess that means the truck was pushing. So when is ENG 2 started last?

    makes me laugh when people say about you should turn of all electrical equipment, when what happens? the PILOTS USE THEM INSTEAD :L

    @Jonte7RM But my reasoning tells me 1 engine was on and used 1 for taxiiing.

    @Jonte7RM Actaully you may have a point. Like i said in a previous comment, notice now the compass on the ND turns, meaning they’re moving forward and turning. Yet while moving, the pilot never touches the throttles to increase power. This leads me to 2 possible conclusions:

    1. Power was applied to move the plane before filming. OR
    2. A truck is towing the plane.

    Now please note that im not a pilot. So whats actaully happening i dont know, as he didnt film outside until later.

    @Jonte7RM No im not sure and nobody can tell because he didnt film leaving the gate. But if you look closely at the Navigation Display at 1:06 notice how close the plane is to the runway, which leads me to the conclusion that they’re on the taxiway and not at the gate. If this is so, he was taxiing with 1 engine. Btw i love the noise of the engine spool up on takeoff :D

    You were right this time, check out 1:02 captain says starting number 2. But are you sure, that it wasent pushback what turned the plane?

    @Jonte7RM Nope you’re wrong. Notice how at the beginning of the video ENG MASTER no 2 is off while 1 is on, meaning engine 1 is on and two is off. Notice from 0:37 till 0:57 the compass on the Navigation Display is turning, meaning the plane is taxiing, meaning only one engine was on, as he only starts number 2 until 1:02. Notice at 1:35 that the plane is already on the taxiway, not at the gate, so until he got there he was on Engine 1. Conlusion: he taxiid on one engine. ;)

    Was he taxiing with one engine on? You can do that?
