### Cautions & Notes

<Warning>
  **Aborted Start** - ENG MASTER OFF, Dry crank 30 s then 30 s rest. ENG 1 started first per current Airbus SOP (effective 2025). Trent XWB is a three-spool engine (N1/N2/N3).
</Warning>

<Note>
  **Taxi** - Brake check at first movement *"Brakes checked, pressure \_\_\_"*.
</Note>

<Note>
  **Landing** - Reverse idle at 60 kt. Speed brake auto-deploy on touchdown. ECAM LDG MEMO must show all blue (LDG GEAR DN, SIGNS ON, CABIN READY, SPLRS ARM, FLAPS LDG). BTV (Brake To Vacate) is OPTIONAL equipment on the A350-900, not standard - operators may equip it. When fitted and selected, BTV provides automatic runway exit targeting; otherwise use LO / MED autobrake.
</Note>
