Re: Turkish 320 with spoilers up
At the end of the day, the pilots managed to fix them...
No idea what the problem was!

Re: Turkish 320 with spoilers up
Speculation mode On:
Possibly the inbound pilots 'created' the situation by keeping the spoilers up un-/intentionally (ex. forgetting to retract the spoilers / on request of tech.people,... ).
On the outbound leg the plane most likely managed to fix itself
when engine 2 was started, hydraulic pressure closed the inner pair, electric hydraulic pump was up when the middle singleton closed and finally engine 1 (or was it the 'barking dog') took care of the outer pair. Nice demonstration to the tech minded passengers of the 3 redundant hydraulic circuits 
So in the end, my guess is there was no 'real' problem. To be corrected by those really in the knowing...
