1)Any reason for the deletion?
Some SOPs forbade its use to save training costs?

2) Why was EXPED not carried over on the A330/A340?

Many thanks!

A320 EXPED Deleted?

As from MSN 5000, EXPED is no longer supplied on new A320 and variants.
This is the case for UL.
It now is an option.
Has anyone seen an A320 w/o EXPED?

Above FL250 Airbus says it does not "recommend" to use BUSS but that does not mean "do not use" and that it is non-functional.

Airspeed was working normally though αlpha PROT was in an unusual place and thus pitot and static not blocked.

The BUSS procedure for UAS are different from non-BUSS.
The BUSS procedure is now the norm for non-BUSS as well should there be any blocked AOAs, Pitots and Static Ports.

Following the IT148 crash, the display windows were widened to include extra digits IIRC.
This is where Boeing has an edge as all relevant display windows are totally physically separate.

Pitots are probes.
AOA vanes are sensors.
