In-Flight Landing Performance Check

LANDING PERFORMANCE .............................................. CONFIRM Perform an in-flight landing performance assessment systematically, unless - A preliminary landing performance was established before departure, - Landing conditions have not changed, e.g. due to runway or weather conditions or an in-flight failure system affecting the performance.

Exposure Study to FOLD longer than RLD - Wet


Large scale check 8000 real runways (large proportion of Airbus operations) 8 representative Airbus types Only 8 runways identified with operational consequences with at
least one rev inoperative

Never all runways at a single airport

Recommendations for Dispatch


Dispatch with RLD In marginal conditions at arrival Make preliminary FOLD crosscheck Nominate suitable alternates

Basically

Practically

Conclusion
Introduction of OLD contributes to reduction of runway excursions Operational Landing Distances are a reality NOW There may be a remote operational impact on your airline Use the PEP and LPC to assess your own operations Brief your flight crew OLD requirement is coming...
