Dear friends and followers welcome back to my channel and lovely greetings out of an actual Airbus A320 cockpit today
We'll be looking at this little thing right here, and [I'm] sure many of you have seen this before and have asked yourself
What is it good for so let's get right to it?
Big thank you to [videoblocks] who are sponsoring today's video
They are giving you guys a [7] day free trial for all their footage and their aviation
Related videos are absolutely amazing watch until the end to see a little bit [more] about it
Now this whole thing is no, switch. It's not lit up, and it doesn't move what you see. Here is the eye
Position indicator a little bit very important [ok] imagine this you get into your cockpit
And you sit down in your propria team as you gently let your left hand
Hang down towards the floor [you] can reach these two switches
with which the Cop with seat in the air
but can't electrically be adjusted in your horizontal and vertical axis a
Little lower you have the levers to manually adjust the seat and backrest so as you adjust your seat
You keep your eyes on the eye
positioning indicator and either rise or
[lower] your seat
So that the red ball is in line with the white ball behind it
You then have the correct seating position regarding your viewing angle?
Meaning that 50 percent of your peripheral vision is covering the instruments such as the PFD
The primary flight display, and the ND the navigation display, and then the other 50% are covering the outside
Still your eyes would have to refocus from the instruments to the outside
But you wouldn't have to move your head during the scan if you were to sit, too
low or too high
You would have to move your head up and down to see the instrument or the outside and either position would significantly
reduce your visual segment
Especially during low visibility approaches the correct seating position is very important besides now
Having the right
Position regarding your viewing angle you are now also in the correct spot to reach all the flight relevant switches from your seat next
Step is to adjust the outboard armrests this comes down [like] this
and then your forearm rest comfortably on it as you're holding the side stick now there should be no gaps between your
forearm and your armrest your wrist shouldn't be bent when holding the side stick and
Therefore the armrest can be adjusted accordingly by turning these little wheels below here and an indicator window
shows it current position once said this ensures that you can accomplish like new verse by only
Moving the wrist instead of lifting the forearm from the armrest
Symptoms of incorrect armrest adjustment includes over controlling and not being able to make small precise input
Next step is then to adjust the rudder pedals at your feet
Your feet must be in a position so that the full rudder deflection can be applied
instinctively without delay
at the same time you need to be able to apply full brake pressure at the top of the pedals using your toes and
Again you have [a] position indicator
So you can memorize that number to use the position on other Airbus models in your fleet?
Then you bring down the arm brace to your left and then adjust its height so that your forearm rests comfortably
On it and your hand lays on the first [lever]
Then you buckle up the seat belt and shoulder harness and you more or less ready to go and by the way many other airplanes
Have similar indicators to get the correct seating position
here's an example of a
Bombardier Q400 and of a boeing 747 [I] hope you enjoyed this short video about the seating position in a nervous
make sure to tune in next Thursday as I'm starting a
10-Week Airbus system knowledge video series and by the way lovely greetings to Prince aviation flight Academy in Belgrade
Big thank you to their performance teacher
Evaluation which who presented my take of these videos to his class she is [even] appreciated?
Wishing you all the best your captain Joe
