Can`t you just prioritise, deal in priority, and fly the aircraft?

Just get rid of all the faults taking into consideration all the secondary faults thus created - get rid of them by dealing with them and then Status to tell you the obvious yet copious list of the things you have not got then fly the aeroplane, whats left of it.

Why don`t they make the read out of the Status to be preceded by the word "No"

"No Autobrake"
"No Nosewheel Steering"
"No this"
"No that"
"Flaps/Slats slow" etc

It kind of puts it all in context.

Hi evrybody
In the third column of List of OEBs under heading E you will see letter Y or N. If it is Y that means it affects ECAM. Only in case of such OEBs when PF asks for ECAM actions That OEB needs to be applied first. In case of N you do ECAM as usual but there is an entry point for this OEB to apply which is required to be noted in your OEB review in cockpit prep. This was introduced a few years ago to attempt and prevent flight turn back. For instance the Bleed OEB if not applied before ECAM will lead to loss cabin pressure and descent, applying it now won't save situation but applying first may recover the bleed. Aircrafs fitted with OEB option ECAM itself directs you to the OEB.I know Airbus haters will have a field day but OEBs are temporary phenomina.

Natstrackalpha,
and your variant is.... that I have to guess myself, right?:)
