EWD ECAM Phase Of Flight (POF)
The Airbus aircraft has several flight phases, (Phase Of Flight POF), which are used to inform the flight crew of system states in a more efficient way. For example, there is no need to inform the flight crew about any hydraulics system failures, until after the engines are started.
