Topic Reading-Vol.2357-9/24/2018

Dear MEL Topic Readers
Inside the cockpit of an Airbus A220
Do you want to know how pilots fly an airplane? Here is a tour of the flight deck of the brand-new Airbus A220-300. This relatively small passenger aircraft is fully controlled digitally. There are no longer round dial instruments in the cockpit. Instead, digital screens show all the information needed to plan, fly and land the aircraft. You may also notice that there are no control sticks seen in front of the pilots’ seats. Instead, there are side-sticks on the side of the seats, one on the left for the captain and the other on the right for the co-pilot.
Are those side-sticks easy to use for both right-handed and left-handed pilots?
Enjoy watching the video tour of the latest flight deck.
