A330 Eng#2 failure and Y Elec HYD Pump?
Hi,
Just wondering what are different views on what to do with Y HYD pump after Eng#2 failure. For those not familiar with the type, Y Elec Pump operates automatically after fail if flaps are out and will continue to run till landing.
The caveat is that elec pumps are supposed to run only for short periods of time and could overheat otherwise. Do your company SOPs tell you to switch it off, or leave it alone?
Mine does not say anything, nor the Airbus procedure ask for switching the pump off, so till now I have always left it alone. Any opinions on that, or even better, any Information directly from Airbus on that?
