@@Rsantana380 Isn't flex a derate, because Airbus goes from toga, flex, climb once it reaches altitude I thought? And thank you

[@Rsantana380]

@@pilerks1 It is, but you will never hear a bus pilot saying, derate takeoff to any temperature they select, on the contrary, i say flex take off 55 degrees, take off set, air speed is alive, 100 knots, v1 rotate, after ceratin altitude you set on the mcdu, then its climb power, after acceleration speed is reached flaps are retracted, on the neos and some ceos auto flap retraction is available :)

Those compressors make such a cool sound. It’s like a giant refrigerator kicking in.

Spectacular footage!! It is always outstanding to hear the turbines pass through FLX/MCT and then CLB during thrust reduction.

Nice video. This is the only Delta widebody I haven't flown on.

All of the PW4000 variants turns out to have the "down-spool" sound during early spool-ups. I thought only the PW4000-112 who have the sound
