You guys dont have electric hydraulic pumps?

2 Eng Hyd Pumps, 1 Elec Hyd Pump & a RAT. It's been a few years, but I believe that is the set up. Also the Elec pump drives everyone crazy in the main cabin when it is turned on. Maybe a current 320 guy can chime in on the set up. Also the the F/A call buzz is the loudest of any airplane.

Is that the electric hydraulic pump I hear in the cabin of the 320, I thought it was the PTU. It is loud to the point of actually deserving a PA (seriously).

Looking at Icrew I did notice it says: CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT TOOLKITS ARE AVAILABLE FOR PICK UP AT CHIEF PILOT OFFICES. TOOLKITS CONTAIN A PA GUIDE, SOUVENIR WINGS, AIRCRAFT TRADING CARDS AND CAPT CARDS (CAPTS ONLY).

But for sure FO's in ATL have been getting them. Why would it say CAPTS ONLY?

There is a PTU (also loud) back there too! But that is a motor/pump, just transfers press not fluild to the low press system. You hear that right at the wing in the cabin. Like I said, it's been a few years and airplanes ago.

I thought that noise was Menopausal-Maggie asking to warm it up on the back.

Hydraulic pump whining or Flight Attendant whining...I can't tell the difference.
