INTRODUCTION

1. PURPOSE OF THE DOCUMENT

This document provides the Operator Difference Requirement (ODR) tables:


Between aircraft variants within the same aircraft type
For aircraft modifications having an impact on cabin crew training and qualification.
This document is referenced in the “Operational Suitability Data – Cabin Crew” document of the applicable
aircraft type and constitutes an OSD. OSD are approved either by EASA or by Airbus under privilege
granted by EASA.
The technical content of this document is approved under the authority of the Design Organisation
Approval ref. EASA.21J.031.
Note: the present document includes OSD data approved either by EASA for major changes or by Airbus
under DOA privilege for minor changes.
OSD must be used by operators when establishing training programmes in accordance with Commission
Regulations Air Operations.

2. DEFINITIONS
Aircraft modifications means an approved change to the aircraft design or the aircraft operational
capability.
Base aircraft means an aircraft used as a reference to compare differences with another aircraft. In the
ODR tables for aircraft modifications, the base aircraft is the aircraft without the given aircraft modification.
Candidate aircraft means an aircraft subject to the evaluation of differences. In the ODR tables for aircraft
modifications, the candidate aircraft is the aircraft with the given aircraft modification.
Operation means a series of chronological actions performed by the cabin crew to accomplish a specific
task.
Operator Differences Requirement (ODR) is a description of the differences identified between the base
and the candidate aircraft.
Variant means an aircraft that has differences to the base aircraft requiring completion of differences
training.
Training difference level means a formally designated level of difference between a base and a
candidate aircraft for the establishment of cabin crew training.

3. ODR TABLES

3.1 PURPOSE OF ODR TABLES

The ODR table identifies the differences pertinent to cabin crew in terms of aircraft configuration, aircraft
systems and any design-related elements that would impact normal and/or emergency operations. The
ODR table also identifies the impact of the differences on description and operation, and proposes
recommended appropriate training difference levels.
The ODR table is a formal description of the differences identified between the base and the candidate
aircraft, for the purpose of establishing the “variant” status of the candidate aircraft.
In addition, ODR table provides the basis for development of customized cabin crew differences training
by operators.

3.2 DESCRIPTION OF ODR TABLES

3.2.1 Differences

This ODR table identifies the differences between a base and a candidate aircraft. The differences are
categorized by:

- Aircraft Configuration (General). The characteristics of the candidate aircraft are compared
with the base aircraft with regard to the aircraft configuration and general design.
- Systems. Consideration is given to differences in systems and equipments which are operated
by cabin crew on the base and the candidate aircraft.
- Normal and Emergency Operations. Comparison is run between the base and the candidate
aircraft, for any design-related element that would impact normal and/or emergency operations.

3.2.2 Differences impact analysis

The impact of differences on cabin crew data elements is assessed in the ODR table as per the following
criteria:
- Impact on the description of the element is tagged with a “YES” in the column DESC when there
is an identified difference between the base and the candidate aircraft that needs to be notified
to the cabin crew.
- Impact on the operation of the element is tagged with a “YES” in the column OPS when the
identified difference affects the operation of the element and that needs to be notified to the cabin
crew.

3.2.3 Training difference levels

Training difference levels are used to identify differences between a base and a candidate aircraft
identified in the ODR table. A range of three training difference levels, from 1 to 3, listed in order to assist
operators to meet the minimum training requirement.
Training difference levels apply when a difference between a base and a candidate aircraft affects the
existing cabin crew training, knowledge retention and operation. Such differences may lead to affecting
the proficiency required of a cabin crew member.
The aim of the ODR table is to facilitate the achievement of the required level of cabin crew proficiency.
The levels 1 to 3 represent a minimum training requirements level.
Note: the level 3 assessment training should be assessed on a case by case basis.

The training difference levels are defined below:


- Level 1: Applicable to aircraft with minor differences that can be adequately addressed through
self-instruction. Level 1 training represents a knowledge requirement such that, once appropriate
information is provided, understanding and compliance can be assumed to take place.
Compliance with Level 1 training can be achieved by methods such as:
o Issuance of operating manual page revisions
o Cabin crew operating bulletins
o Hand-outs/emails
o Etc.
The above is a non-exhaustive list of examples. Level 1 training methods must be defined by the
airline in accordance with the local aviation authority acceptance.

CABIN CREW DATE 27 January 2022

- Level 2: Applicable to aircraft with differences that can be adequately addressed through aided
instruction. At Level 2, aided instruction is appropriate to ensure crew understanding, emphasize
issues, provide a standardized method of presentation of material, or to aid retention of material
following training. Compliance with Level 2 training can be achieved by methods such as.
o Classroom training/instructions
o Computer Based Training (CBT)
o Stand up lectures
o Audi/visual presentations
o Etc.
The above is a non-exhaustive list of examples. Level 2 training methods must be defined by the
airline in accordance with the local aviation authority acceptance.

- Level 3: Applicable to aircraft with differences that affect knowledge, skills, attitude and that can
only be addressed through the use of devices capable of hands-on/practical training. Training
devices are required to supplement instruction to ensure attainment or retention of crew skills and
attitude to accomplish the more complex tasks. Compliance with Level 3 practical training is
achieved by the use of a representative device or aircraft, as specified in ORO.CC.115(c). Level
3 training methods must be defined by the airline in accordance with the local aviation authority
acceptance.

4. USE OF ODR TABLES BY OPERATORS

For operators under EASA regulations, the ODR tables between variants within one aircraft type provide
the training requirements that shall be taken into account for the establishment of differences training as
per ORO.CC.130. The list of variants within an aircraft type for cabin crew is defined in the applicable
“Operational Suitability Data – Cabin Crew” document.
The ODR table for aircraft modification is provided for aircraft modification (or combination of aircraft
modifications) identified by Airbus as requiring additional knowledge, skills or attitude in order to safely
operate the aircraft equipped with this modification over time. An aircraft modification can be the
installation of new equipment or function, or the implementation of new operational characteristics. As
such, the Airbus ODR table for modification supports the establishment of aircraft type specific training,
operator conversion training or differences training required by ORO.CC.125 and ORO.CC.130.
This document provides the ODR tables for all variants and aircraft modifications of a given aircraft type.
It is the operator responsibility to identify the configuration of the aircraft to be trained and to consider the
applicable ODR table.
