That's very interesting Javier, I hadn't noticed that. But I noticed that on landing the A310 has a *strong* tendency to steer left (while drifting like a car desperately needing an ABS :) ), which I could not explain - until now!
Could it be because it's braking stronger on the left side, which is heavier because of the asymetrical fuel distribution? Maybe...
BTW, this means that anyone that could solve the fuel problem would solve the left steering problem too!
Cheers

i did a flight with a friend once flying the beluga with the A310's panel, i noticed on the memo display(see above pic for reference to display), it had something like "Fuel Control manual" or somthing, i could not find any switch to turn it to auto though :s
EHM-1671 Ben:
Hi there everyone, just have a problem here in that the gauges on the A310 panel aren't there! The picture above which Javier took is the first time I've seen any gauges, instruments or numbers anywhere on the panel. This may have been mentioned above but I'm in a rush at the moment so I've only skim-read. Thanks!

Ben,
When you first load the panel you need to open the Overhead and supply electrical power to the displays - you can click on the 'Ext Pwr' button if you're at the gate or start up the APU and ensure the 'APU Gen' switch is on... This will then make all the displays appear!
Have fun !!

Something as simple as turning on the power ALWAYS GETS ME! ;D
Thanks very much Dom - that's why you get the big money. ;)
