Two more little curious questions;

1. Airbus main gear brake cooling fans, almost sure electrically driven and presumably automatically switched on and off based on brake temp sensors feedback. Is there any pilot manual override control on this ? and is it possibly only run while the a/c is on ground?

2. Weather radar , is it consume large current of electricity ? will it be first to shed during certain a/c electrical problem?

Thank you All,
