• FMGS PREPARATION:
 DATA PAGE: INSERT and STORE ETP1, ETP2, ,EEP
 INIT PAGE: ALTN ROUTE - CI 90 - ACFT POSITION - AVRG TROP
 FPLN PAGE: INSERT MANUALLY THE FLIGHT PLAN, DO NOT USE DATA BASE
CHECK TOTAL GND DIST
 INIT PAGE 2: ZFW
BLOCK FUEL as training syllabi
TRIP WIND COMPONENT INSERTION ONLY
CHK TRIP FUEL / TIME
 PERF PAGE: as syllabi
 SEC FPLN PLAN: Copy active. Select options.

TO BE INSERTED IN FLIGHT:
CRUISE WINDS using the WINDS ALOFT EINN-KJFK (inside the weather folder)
Descent and alternate winds to be inserted too

CROSSCHEK ALL THE PARAMETERS

 2 ETOPS PREPARATION:
Review of trip fuel, Tracks and Distances for ETOPS sector
Before ETOPS ENTRY POINT requirements, review with the ETOPS checklist

 3 OCEANIC CLEARANCE: obtained via SHANON OCEANIC AREA CONTROL CENTER


SNNOCA as Jeppesen chart

For info: Pilots should request Oceanic Clearances from the ATC unit
responsible for the first OCA within which they operate.
Three elements to an Oceanic Clearance, route, Mach number and FL serve to provide elements
of separation: lateral, longitudinal and vertical.

Oceanic Clearance: “airline ID 101 cleared to KJFK on Random Track:


“RESNO 56N20W 57N30W 57N40W 55N50W CARPE FL380 MACH .82 FROM RESNO”

 4 ATC CLEARANCE: Shannon Ground


“(airline ID) 101 cleared to RESNO VIA ERABI 2B departure - CLIMB INITIALY TO 5000 ft
SQUAWK 3615”.

 8 AFTER TAKE-OFF: Contact departure on …


Climb to FL 380 to be level off at RESNO”

 9 CLIMB: Oceanic clearance request if not done on ground


ETOPS ENTRY POINT check on ND
Insertion of CRUISE WINDS
OPTIMUM ALT REVIEW: Weight, Temperature, Winds direct influences for accurate FMGS
computations
 remind the mandatory LH ETOPS requirements check before EEP

 10 CRUISE: USE OF AIRBUS LONG HAUL CHECK LIST follow up of Fuel on CFP,
mandatory item for LH and ETOPS flight
• Check the ETP1, compare with the FMS ETP updated with SNN and KEF.
• APU check requested by maintenance: START ABORT, APU FAULT
• NAVIGATION FAILURES before EEP: FCOM DSC-22_20-60
• MCDU 2 FAIL
Recover the FLIGHT PLAN on MCDU 3 but no back up NAV avail on MCDU 3
………..RESTORE
• LOSS OF FM1 AND FMGS 2
(Pull FM1 R/B and introduce the FMGC2 FAILURE)
RVSM MAX EXCURSION IS 200’
Reset of AP 1 possible, fly the TRACK with TRK / FPA
Use of NAV BACK UP on MCDU: FCOM DSC-22_20-60 p17
RESET OF FM 1 and FMGS2 USE OF QRH FOR RESET

 11 OVER A REPORTING WAYPOINT: SWK HF 8879 11336 INTERPILOT 123.45


• Verify the Track, the turn to, the distance, the next way point
• Verify the fuel used, fuel remaining
Standard air ground message types and formats (see JEPPESEN CHART)
- Position report:
• FLIGHT IDENTIFICATION
• PRESENT POSITION
• TIME (over present position)
• FL
• NEXT POSITION AND ESTIMATED TIME (for next position)
• ANY FURTHER INFORMATION

 13 ENGINE 1 FAILURE (before ETP1) REMINDER:


“The pilot should advise ATC as soon as practicable of the situation, reminding ATC of the type of
aircraft involved, and request expeditious handling”

 13 (end) KEEP in mind where to go along the entire ETOPS sector

• ECAM ACTIONS LAND ASAP


• Immediate disconnection of A/THR, set MCT
• Do not descent in TRK, Green Dot strategy initially, RVSM levels
• When out of track and approaching Green Dot, select initially FL170 and pull
• Revert to an adequate strategy: ATHR ON
Accelerate to M .82/330 kts as established before dispatch
(Insist on reverting to another strategy depending on failure or emergency and fuel
remaining on board)
• EMERGENCY CALL 121.5 and HF SWK 8879 or 11336
• Use of FMGS pages

For demonstration and as briefed before:

Special procedures in Oceanic Airspace (ref: jeppesen)


• Leave the assigned route or track by initially turning at least 45° right or left to acquire
a same or opposite direction track offset 15 NM.
• If unable to maintain the assigned FL, initially minimize the rate of descent

 14 FUEL MONITORING AND IMBALANCE


- FUEL MONITORING AND IMBALANCE
• FUEL IMBALANCE: Use of QRH mandatory to cover an eventual FUEL LEAK
• Review the Overweight procedure if needed

 15 ELEC EMER CONFIG


• IDG 2 OVHT or GEN FAULT
• Declare EMERGENCY
• CM1 has to take over the controls
• ECAM ACTIONS
• ELEC EMER CONF Summary
• If time permits, review FCOM PRO-ABN-24 p15

*Note about the failure of ENG 1 + GEN 2 or ENG 2 + GEN 1


In ELEC EMER CONFIG, SFCC1 only remains available (powered when LAND RECOVERY is
pressed)
However, SFCC 1 slats channel uses the yellow hydraulic circuit to actuate the slats.
Consequently, if the ELEC EMER CONFIG results from the loss of ENG 2, providing the yellow
pressure followed by the loss of IDG 1, the SFCC 1 remains electrically supplied, but it cannot
use any hydraulic power. So the flaps are lost.
