TOGA Takeoff
INDICATION DESCRIPTION
Manual TOGA Thrust. At least one thrust lever is in the TOGA detent.
Speed Reference System mode is engaged. For takeoff, SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain airspeed at V2 + 10, or if an engine
failure is detected, to maintain the greater of V2 or current speed, up to V2 + 15. For a go around, SRS gives pitch guidance to
maintain the greater of VAPP or the airspeed at the moment of engagement, up to VLS + 25. SRS mode protects against high pitch
attitude and provides at least a minimum climb rate, and, during windshear, provides specifically adapted escape guidance. This
mode is triggered by the thrust levers at FLX or TOGA and will disengage automatically at acceleration altitude or when another
vertical mode is engaged.
The Managed Climb mode is armed. CLB will arm automatically on the ground or when SRS is engaged if no other vertical mode is
engaged
Runway mode is engaged. This mode provides steering guidance during the takeoff roll and initial climb if a localizer signal is
available.
Navigation mode is armed. NAV mode arms automatically on the ground if no HDG/TRK is preset and no other lateral mode except
RWY.
Page 46
Normal Flight Director status indication, showing both FD’s are active. PFD 1 displays FD 1 and PFD 2 displays FD 2.
A/THR is armed. On the ground A/THR is armed by setting the thrust levers at the FLEX or TOGA detent. (At least one flight
director must be on).
Managed Climb
Thrust mode is engaged and commanding climb thrust. The most advanced thrust lever is in the climb detent.
Managed Climb mode is engaged. The FMGS target altitude is higher than the actual altitude. This mode is used to climb towards
the FCU selected altitude along the vertical flight plan (NAV must be engaged – reverts to OP CLB mode if NAV is disengaged).
Pitch guidance is given to hold the airspeed target. FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are taken into account.
Altitude Hold mode is armed for the FCU selected altitude.

Navigation mode is engaged to steer the aircraft along the FMGS lateral flight plan
o NAV Mode engages:
o Automatically at 30 RA after takeoff when armed on the ground and no other lateral mode except RWY mode.
o When DIR TO is activated via the MCDU.
o Automatically when NAV is armed and the aircraft reaches the capture zone.
Autopilot 1 is active.
Both Flight Directors are active.
A/THR is active. After takeoff, the A/THR is activated by:

o Setting the thrust levers between the CL and IDLE detents (two engines running) if previously armed.
o Setting the thrust levers between the MCT and IDLE detents (one engine running) if previously armed.
Page 47
Open Climb
Thrust mode is engaged and commanding climb thrust. The most advanced thrust lever is in the climb detent.
Open Climb mode is engaged. The FCU selected altitude is higher than the actual altitude. This mode is used to climb towards
the FCU selected altitude at a constant airspeed. FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are ignored. Pitch guidance is given
to hold the airspeed target.
Navigation mode is engaged.
A/THR is active.
Page 48
Cruise
Mach mode is engaged. The A/THR varies the thrust in order to maintain the Mach target. The Mach target may be
selected on the FCU or managed by the FMGC.
Altitude Hold (Cruise) mode is engaged and pitch guidance is given to hold cruise altitude. The altitude is permitted to vary ±
50 feet from the selected altitude to minimize thrust variations. Aircraft has entered the Cruise Phase. Performance
information is based on cruise flight until the descent is initiated. Altitude Hold (Cruise) mode is engaged and pitch guidance
is given to hold cruise altitude.
A/THR is active.
Page 49
Managed Descent
Thrust mode is engaged and commanding idle thrust.

Managed Descent mode is engaged and the FMGS target altitude is lower than the actual altitude. FMS-programmed
altitude constraints are taken into account. Pitch guidance is given to acquire and track a vertical profile (NAV must be
engaged – reverts to V/S mode if NAV is disengaged).
Both Flight Directors are active
A/THR is active.
Page 50
Open Descent
Thrust mode is engaged and commanding idle thrust.
Open Descent mode is engaged and the FCU selected altitude is lower than the actual altitude. This mode is used to
descend directly to the FCU selected altitude at a constant airspeed. FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are
ignored. Pitch guidance is given to maintain target airspeed.
A/THR is active.
Page 51
Vertical Speed Descent in Heading
Speed mode is engaged. The A/THR varies the thrust to maintain the speed target. The speed target may be selected
on the FCU or managed by the FMGC.
Vertical speed mode is engaged, with a 1000fpm descent commanded. Pitch guidance is given to maintain the vertical
speed selected on the FCU. FMGS altitude constraints are ignored.
Altitude Hold mode is armed to capture the FCU selected altitude.

Localizer mode is armed.

CAT 3 capability available.
DUAL indicates that the automatic landing system is “Fail Operational.” An automatic landing could be completed in
the event of a single-point failure below Alert Height.
Minimum Descent Altitude (210’ barometric altitude) has been entered in the MDA field on the PERF APPR page of
the FMGS.
Autopilot 1 and 2 are active.
A/THR is active.

ILS Approach
Speed mode is engaged. The A/THR adjusts thrust in order to maintain the speed target.
Glide Slope mode is engaged. (Requires LOC mode to be engaged). Pitch guidance is given
to follow the ILS glide slope.
Localizer mode is engaged. Steering guidance is given to track the ILS localizer
Below 400’ RA
LAND indicates that the LOC and GS Modes are locked. No action on the FCU will disengage
the LAND Mode.
40’ RA
FLARE indicates that the autopilot is aligning the yaw axis with the runway centerline and
flaring in pitch. If A/THR is active during an autoland, thrust is automatically reduced to idle.
Note: This should not be confused with the fly-by-wire flight control “flare mode”.
On Ground
ROLL OUT indicates that the autopilot is guiding the aircraft along the runway centerline and
the PFD displays the Yaw Bar.
CAT 3 capability available.

DUAL indicates that the automatic landing system is “Fail Operational.” An automatic landing could be completed in
the event of a single-point failure below Alert Height.

ADDITIONAL AUTOTHRUST INDICATION
ADDITIONAL AUTOTHRUST INDICATIONS
Alpha Floor is engaged. When Alpha Floor triggering conditions are met (primarily high
angle of attack), A/THR commands TOGA thrust regardless of thrust lever position.
(This protection is available only in Normal Law.)
TOGA Lock is engaged. This occurs subsequent to Alpha Floor activation when the
aircraft leaves the Alpha Floor conditions. In TOGA Lock, TOGA thrust is still being
commanded. To disengage TOGA Lock, the A/THR must be disconnected.
Thrust Lock is engaged. This indicates that autothrust has disconnected either due to
a failure, or by selection of the FCU A/THR pb, while the thrust levers are in the CL (or
MCT) detent. The thrust setting is fixed at the level existing just prior to the
disconnection. Moving the thrust levers out of the CL (or MCT) detent disengages
thrust lock and restores conventional manual operation of the thrust levers.
- Occurs at 10 feet during an autoland to direct the pilot to bring thrust levers to idle
“RETARD” in agreement with A/THR system, or
auto-callout - Occurs at 20 feet during a manual landing to remind the pilot to retard the thrust
levers if they are not already there

Other PFD and MFD Indications
Sideslip Index and Beta Target
- [YELLOW] Side to side movement of the sideslip index indicates sideslip (lateral
acceleration) of the aircraft (equivalent to the inclinometer “ball” in a conventional
display).
- [BLUE] In case of engine failure during takeoff or go-around, the sideslip index
changes from yellow to blue, and its function changes to beta target. When the
beta target index is centered, the amount of sideslip is optimized for best single-
engine performance (which may result in a slight bank)
Energy Circle
The dashed green arc symbol indicates the required distance to

land from present position (i.e., descend to airport elevation and
decelerate to VAPP). This is only displayed in descent and
approach phase when a selected lateral mode is engaged (HDG
or TRK)
