L2 If needed, the flight crew may keep maximum reverse thrust until full aircraft stop.
L1 BRAKE PEDALS..........................................................................................................RELEASE
L2 When the flight crew sets the A/SKID & N/W STRG sw to OFF, the control of the braking
system is transferred from the BSCU to the ABCU, and the alternate braking mode is activated.
Consequently the PF should release the brake pedals before the PM selects the A/SKID off.
This action avoids brutal braking application.
For information on the alternate braking mode, Refer to DSC-32-30-10 Braking Modes -
Alternate Braking without Anti-Skid.

Stabilize the altitude. When altitude is stabilized:
‐ If the pitch is above the target pitch, increase the thrust and maintain the altitude.
‐ If the pitch is below the target pitch, decrease the thrust and maintain the altitude.
When the pitch reaches the target pitch, adjust the thrust to keep this target pitch.

Ident.: PRO-ABN-SURV-00012271.0002001 / 03 DEC 19
Applicable to: ALL

If Windshear is detected, both PFDs display a WINDSHEAR message. An associated aural


WINDSHEAR alert sounds three times.
If either the flight crew or the WXR system detects WINDSHEAR, apply the following recovery
technique:
 At Takeoff:
 If before V1:
If there are significant variations in airspeed, and in airspeed trend below the indicated V1,
reject the takeoff.
L2 If windshear occurs during the takeoff roll, the aircraft may reach V1 later (or sooner) than
expected. The flight crew should ensure that there is sufficient runway remaining to stop
the aircraft, if necessary.
L1
 If after V1:
THR LEVERS...............................................................................................................TOGA
REACHING VR........................................................................................................ROTATE
SRS ORDERS........................................................................................................ FOLLOW
If necessary the flight crew may pull the sidestick fully back.
Note: If the FD bars are not displayed, move toward an initial pitch attitude of 17.5 °.
Then, if necessary, to prevent a loss in altitude, increase the pitch attitude.
 Airborne, initial climb or landing:
THR LEVERS AT TOGA.............................................................................. SET OR CONFIRM
AP (if engaged)............................................................................................................ KEEP ON
SRS ORDERS...............................................................................................................FOLLOW
If necessary the flight crew may pull the sidestick fully back.
Note: 1. Autopilot disengages if the angle of attack value goes above α prot.
2. If the FD bars are not displayed, move toward an initial pitch attitude of 17.5 °.
Then, if necessary, to prevent a loss in altitude, increase the pitch attitude.

DO NOT CHANGE CONFIGURATION (SLATS/FLAPS, GEAR) UNTIL OUT OF


WINDSHEAR.
CLOSELY MONITOR FLIGHT PATH AND SPEED.
RECOVER SMOOTHLY TO NORMAL CLIMB OUT OF WINDSHEAR.

The “W/S AHEAD” message is displayed on each PFD. The color of the message depends on the
severity and location of the windshear
Note: When a predictive windshear alert (“WINDSHEAR AHEAD” or “GO AROUND
WINDSHEAR AHEAD”) is triggered, the flight crew must carefully check that there is no
hazard. If this is the case, the flight crew can disregard the alert, as long as both of the
following apply:
‐ There are no other signs of possible windshear conditions
‐ The reactive windshear system is operational.
Known cases of spurious predictive windshear alerts were reported at some airports,
either during takeoff or landing, due to the specific obstacle environment.
However, always rely on any reactive windshear (“WINDSHEAR”).
W/S AHEAD RED

Associated with an aural synthetic voice “WINDSHEAR AHEAD, WINDSHEAR AHEAD”.
 Before takeoff:
