First off - what a fantastic forum! Huge fan of aviation but alas on the wrong side of the apron
Anyway, I'm a regular flyer (twice a week UK>Holland) and more often than not I fly on the Airbus A319. Great aircraft but when even we disembark in the UK the engines make a very disconcerting metal on metal noise as the fan slowly winds down.
Can any of the experts out there tell me what this noise is? I notice this in pretty much 50% of my flights.
Many thanks!
