Default a319...

Remind me again of what are the whining hydraulic-type sounds coming from an A319 that is sitting completely still on a taxiway?

It can't help it because it's FRENCH, no other reason necessary.

I believe it is either trim screw jacks or Hyd. Pumps maintaining pressure. I don't know that much about the airbus but I think that it what you are hearing.

I believe it is the hydraulic pumps pressurizing the system again after landing before t.o. I think the Bus as three hydraulic pumps..... I love that sound kinda cool.... Like somebody sawing wood in baggage compart
