Hi Fabien
She is registered as F-WWAG I think the AP in UAE141AP is standing for Auxiliary Power Test. But that is just my assumption.
Reagards, Horst

MSN141 is with the ER nearly on the same position as MSN148 (first Engine Run was also near the FL). It looks the engine start is now near the FL and not in the power-box. Was this also before? Or is that a new procedure?

Hi Peter
F-WWOW is a special plane! I know that we have many first engine run in the power-box before. Normaly the plane is towed to the power-box and after the first engine run she will move back to the flight line with the own engine.
The other observation is following: Since MSN148 the first engine start is near the flight line and on the other day the plane was towed to the power-box.
I can't believe that the real engine check is outside the powerbox. For me it is only a engine start.
But maybe I'm wrong ;-)

a380admirer I also think just engine start. Full thrust likely still in the power box. But it did happen before
