My questions is if Agent 2 is not available on the ground why bother with discharging it??Any comments?
Bottle 1 is on HOT BUS, while bottle 2 is on DC BUS. If all engines have spooled down, you might run out of DC power and thus wont get any current anymore. While if engines still turning you could, so it would make sense to push both agent buttons.
We also got a brand new 320 so I will check next time...
