FMGS PREPARATION
At electrical power-up, the FMGSs and FCU run through various internal tests. Allow enough time
(3 min) for tests’ completion, and do not start to press pushbuttons until the tests are over. If the
“PLEASE WAIT” message appears, do not press any MCDU key until the message clears.

CLIMB, CRUISE, DESCENT, SPEED PRESELECTION

* PRESET SPEEDS..........................................................................................................AS RQRD
If the flight is cleared for a close-in turn or close-in altitude constraint, the flight crew may preselect
green dot speed on the PERF CLB page. Once the CLB phase is active, the preselected speed
will be displayed in the FCU speed window and on the PFD (blue symbol). Once the turn is
completed or the altitude cleared, the pilot will resume the managed speed profile by pressing the
SPD selector on the FCU.

If pushback is required
If the ECAM does not display the N WHEEL STEERG DISC memo, but the
ground crew confirms that the tow pin is in the towing position, the flight crew
should not start the engine during pushback. This is to avoid possible nose
landing gear damage upon yellow hydraulic pressurization.
To dispatch the aircraft in such a case,

ENGINE START
Use the automatic engine start procedure in most circumstances. However, if the start aborts due
to insufficient starter inlet air pressure (e.g. on high airfields, or in case of low pressure from an
external pneumatic power group), it is recommended to use the manual start procedure, instead the
automatic procedure.
If, during the engine start, the ground crew reports a fuel leak from the engine drain mast, run the
engine at idle for 5 min. If the leak disappears during these 5 min, the aircraft can be dispatched
without maintenance action. If the leak is still present after 5 min, maintenance action may be
required before the flight.

Engine 2 is usually started first. It powers the yellow hydraulic system, that pressurizes the parking
brake.

In case the electrical power supply is interrupted during the start sequence (indicated by the loss
of ECAM DUs), abort the start by switching OFF the ENG 2 MASTER sw. Then, perform a 30 s
dry crank.

AFTER START
After start, to avoid thermal shock, the pilot should operate the engine at idle or near idle for at
least 2 min before advancing the thrust lever to high power. Taxi time at idle may be included in
the warm-up period.
The last engine started must run for at least 2 min before takeoff initiation, to ensure that takeoff
is not initiated before the center tank pumps test is finished, since takeoff on center tank is
prohibited.

APU BLEED OFF After ENG Start

This action enables to avoid ingestion of engine exhaust gases.
‐ APU BLEED valve closes, ENG BLEED valves open.

ENG 1 ANTI ICE pb-sw and ENG 2 ANTI ICE ON

Icing conditions may be expected when the OAT (on ground and for takeoff), or the TAT
(in flight), is 10 °C or below, and there is visible moisture in the air (such as clouds, fog
with low visibility, rain, snow, sleet, ice crystals), or when standing water, slush, ice or
snow is present on the taxiways or runway.

RUD TRIM position indication

After the reset, the flight crew may observe an indication of up to 0.3 ° (L or R) in the
RUD TRIM position indication.

FLAPS
If taxiing in icing conditions with rain, slush or snow:
Maintain the flaps retracted until the aircraft reaches the holding point of the takeoff runway.
This action prevents contamination of the slats/flaps mechanism.

180 DEG TURN ON RUNWAY

The standard width of a runway is 45 m. However, this aircraft only needs a runway width of 30 m
(99 ft) for a 180 ° turn.
The following procedure is recommended for performing a 180 ° turn on the runway.
FOR THE CM2:
‐ Taxi on the left of the runway and turn Right, maintaining 25 ° of divergence from the runway
axis
‐ When about 2 m before the runway edge:
• Turn the nosewheel fully left
• On ENG 2, set N1 to between 30 % and 35 % (CFM engines), or the EPR to between 1.02
and 1.03 (IAE engines)
• Set ENG 1 to idle.
The Ground Speed (GS) for the entire maneuver should be between 5 kt and 8 kt, to prevent the
width of the turn from increasing.

To prevent the nosewheel from skidding on a wet runway, it is possible to perform the
turn at a very low speed using asymmetric thrust and differential braking, as necessary.

BRAKE TEMP
If brake temperature is above 150 °C, delay takeoff.
‐ If brake temperature is below 150 °C, select brake fans off.

Select IGN, if:

‐ The runway has standing water, or
‐ Heavy rain is falling, or
‐ Heavy rain or severe turbulence is expected after takeoff.

Setting the RWY TURN OFF sw, the LAND LIGHTS sw and the NOSE sw to ON/T.O
minimizes bird strike hazard during takeoff.

Consider selecting packs OFF, or APU bleed ON.

This will improve performance when using TOGA thrust.
In case of a FLEX takeoff, selecting packs OFF or APU bleed ON will reduce takeoff EGT, and thus
reduce maintenance costs.
The use of flex thrust may reduce maintenance costs. The effect is particularly significant with the
first degrees of FLEX

Use of APU bleed is not authorized, if wing anti-ice is to be used.

Select PACK 1 on after CLB thrust reduction.

Select PACK 2, at least 10 s after PACK 1 is selected on, for passenger comfort.
Note: 1. Selecting pack on before reducing takeoff thrust would result in an EGT increase.
2. If packs are not switched on after the takeoff phase, an ECAM caution will be
triggered.

The best speed (and rate of climb) for long-term situations lies between green dot
speed and ECON speed. At high altitude, acceleration from green dot to ECON
speed can take a long time.

To counter the nose-up effect of setting engine takeoff thrust, apply half forward sidestick until
the airspeed reaches 80 kt. Release the sidestick gradually to reach neutral at 100 kt.

At 130 kt (wheel speed), the connection between nosewheel steering and the rudder pedals
is removed. Therefore, in strong crosswinds, more rudder input will be required at this point to
prevent the aircraft from turning into the wind.

If a tailstrike occurs, avoid flying at an altitude requiring a pressurized cabin, and

return to the originating airport for damage assessment.

EXPEDITE CLIMB
If ATC requires a rapid climb through a particular level:
Push the EXP pb on the FCU.
The target speed is now green dot speed. FMA :THR CLB /EXP CLB/NAV
Note: Use EXP only for short-term tactical situations. For the best overall economy fly
at ECON IAS.
To return to ECON CLB speed:
Push ALT knob.
Check FMA: THR CLB/CLB/NAV

LANDING PERFORMANCE
Perform an in-flight landing performance assessment if the landing conditions changed compared
with the landing computation at dispatch, or with a previous computation (e.g. runway, weather
conditions, in-flight failure affecting performance, diversion).
Note: 1. If the weather conditions are expected to change at the landing airport, or in the event
of significant precipitation, the flight crew should consider a second calculation of the
in-flight landing distance with the worst possible runway condition.
2. The selection of REV MAX is the standard practice for landing.
However, on dry runways the flight crew may select REV IDLE.
On WET runways (runway surface condition GOOD), the flight crew may select REV
IDLE, if all the following conditions are satisfied:
‐ A landing distance assessment has been made with the following parameters:
• MEDIUM TO POOR landing performance level for the in-flight landing distance
computation
• No reverser credit
‐ The result of this landing distance assessment is within the LDA.

ENG ANTI ICE must be ON, when icing conditions are expected with a TAT at, or below, 10 °C.

The MCDU PROG page displays OPT FL and MAX REC FL. It is worth noting that this OPT FL is
a function of the cost index (CI).
‐ The displayed MAX REC FL gives the aircraft at least a 0.3 g buffet margin. The pilot may enter a
cruise flight level above this level into the MCDU and the FMGS will accept it, provided that it does
not exceed the level at which the margin is reduced to 0.2 g.

ENG ANTI ICE should be ON when the aircraft encounters icing conditions, unless the SAT is below
- 40 °C.

DESCENT ADJUSTMENT
To increase the rate of descent:
‐ Increase descent speed (by use of selected speed) if comfort and ATC permit. It is economically
better (Time/Fuel) than the following procedures.
‐ Maintain high speed as long as possible. (SPD LIM may be suspended, subject to ATC
clearance).
‐ If the aircraft is high and at high speed, it is more efficient to keep the high speed to ALT* and
decelerate, rather than to mix descent and deceleration.
‐ If the aircraft goes below the desired profile, use SPEED and the V/S mode to adjust the rate of
descent.
Note: EXPEDITE DESCENT.
If a high rate of descent is required, push the EXPED pushbutton  on the FCU. The
target speed for the descent now becomes M 0.8 or 340 kt, whichever is lower. The FMA
will display THRIDLE/EXP DES/NAV.
To return to DES mode, push the FCU ALT knob.
To return to SPEED/V/S modes, pull the FCU V/S knob.
In all cases, monitor the FMA to ensure that the mode engages properly.
If engine anti-ice is selected in descent, the flight idle is increased. So, to maintain the rate of
descent that the airplane had before engine anti-ice selection it may be necessary to use up to half
speedbrakes to maintain the required rate of descent, in OPEN DES vertical mode. If the rate of
descent has to be increased, full speedbrakes may be used.
In DES mode: If the aircraft is on, or below, the flight path and the ATC requires a higher rate of
descent, do not use speedbrakes because the rate of descent is dictated by the planned flight path.
Thus, the A/THR may increase thrust to compensate for the increase in drag. In this case, use OPEN
DES with speedbrakes.
Note: 1. If speedbrakes are used above 315 kt/M .75, with the AP engaged, their rate of retraction
is low (total time for retraction from full extension is approximately 25 s). The ECAM
memo page displays SPD BRAKES in amber until retraction is complete.
2. In order to avoid overshooting the altitude, due to speedbrake retraction in ALT* mode,
retract the speedbrakes at least 2 000 ft before the selected altitude.
