F-16 Pilot 9 Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 Hi. I believe this mau be a well known issuie with the A300 but if it is please bear with me. Basicley when I am cruising (at FL whatever) I will have an audible alarm and then lose vital instruments like engine instruments and the INS (and Autopilot etc). And I can't for the life of me revive them. I attempted to reset the Yaw dampers but no luck as they don't budge in flight so I will have to tackle this issuie on the ground. Any help would be much apprichiated. Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjorn Comhaire 27 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 The engines are already started when I load up the A/C OK, but are the electrics on ? ==> Go to the electrics subpanel and set the 2 engine generator switches to the ON position...

F-16 Pilot 9 Posted April 4, 2010 Author Share Posted April 4, 2010 Stupid question, is the sub panel on the F/E's panel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bjorn Comhaire 27 Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Stupid question, is the sub panel on the F/E's panel? The easiest way to open it is to go to the 2D panel and press the "Elec" panel link on the left of the captains panel. This will open a pop-up that shows the electrics panel.
