A319 Memory Items

Question 1

Loss of Braking

Answer 1

“LOSS OF BRAKING”
REV - MAX (IF Req’d, may keep max reverse until full stop)
BRAKES - RELEASE
“ANTI-SKID OFF” (switches BSCU to ABCU & activates alternate braking, nose wheel steering is lost)
PM Selects Anti-skid & NWS sw - OFF
BRAKES -PRESS
MAX BRK PR - 1000psi (“1000” or ABCU)

IF Still NO Braking:
PARK BRAKE - SHORT APPLICATIONS

ABCU Automatically limits brake pressure to 1000psi on SOME FINS Only. Otherwise, Monitor brake pressure on BRAKES PRESS Indicator (Triple Indicator) to avoid locking a wheel/skidding/tire failure. - FCOM DSC-32-30-10 p 6/10. DSC-32-30-20 p 1/12 & 3/12

See Differences Card if ABCU is installed

Question 2

Smoke / Fire from lithium battery

Answer 2

PA:

“BACKUP TO THE FLIGHT DECK, BACKUP TO THE FLIGHT DECK”

Smoke/Fire From Lithium Battery QRH:

IF necessary, transfer control to the flight crewmember seated on the opposite side of the fire

• CKPT/CAB COM - ESTABLISH
• Storage after LI BAT FIRW cabin procedure - Request Initiation

IF flames:
Oxygen mask (PF) - 100%/EMER use
Smoke Hood (PM) - use
(FOM:12.4.16
-Shall Don O2 mask 100% before using Halon fire extinguisher on the flight deck - FOM 12.4.5

IF no flames or when fire extinguished & Not possible to remove from flight deck:
-Water/non-alcoholic liquid- pour on device
-Device - Monitor

If possible to remove from the flight deck:
-Device - Transfer to cabin

At any time of the procedure, if smoke becomes the greatest threat:
-Removal of smoke/fumes - Consider

At any time of the procedure, if situation becomes unmanageable:
-Immediate Landing - Consider

FOM:12.4.16:
-Flight Crew Shall Don O2 mask 100% before using Halon fire extinguisher on the flight deck - FOM 12.4.5
-Establish Communication
-Control the Aircraft

Question 3

Unreliable Speed Indication

Answer 3

(Click, click, click, pitch/power, Flap, up, up)

IF the safe conduct of the flight is impacted:

“UNRELIABLE SPEED”
AP - OFF
A/THR - OFF
FD’s - OFF (PM)

PITCH / THRUST:
BELOW THRUST RED ALT - 15°/TOGA
ABOVE thrust Red & BLO FL100 - 10°/CLB
ABOVE thrust Red & ABV FL100 - 5°/CLB

FLAPS 0-3 = MAINTAIN CURRENT CONF
FLAPS FULL - SET FLAPS 3 AND MAINTAIN

SPEEDBRAKES - RETRACTED
L/G - UP

ABOVE MSA or CCT ALT - LEVEL OFF & troubleshoot.
- Level off using unreliable speed QRH table
- MUST Level Off IF Memory Items applied
- Consider using Bird / FPV as it’s reliable in most cases (not all)

QRH - NAV tab - UNRELIABLE SPEED INDICATION

“CHECKLIST UNRELIABLE SPEED INDICATION”

To Level Off:
AP - OFF
A/THR - OFF
FD - OFF
SPEEDBRAKE - CHECK RETACTED
PITCH/THRUST TABLE - APPLY

CLEAN:
Above FL250 = 3° & 54-94%
Below FL250 = 4° & 54-94%

FLAP CONF 1-3:
4.5-7.5° & 52-74%

• Stabilize Altitude
• IF Pitch is ABOVE the target pitch, INCREASE thrust & maintain altitude
• IF Pitch is BELOW target pitch, DECREASE thrust & maintain altitude

Below FL250 IF BUSS installed:
- Use BUSS

Question 18

TCAS RA

Answer 18

TCAS Mode Available:
AP - OFF
FD - Follow
V/S - keep out of Red band (Both initial RA and corrective RA) & override FD orders using full speed range b/w Vαmax and Vmax

Respect any STALL, GPWS, or WINDSHEAR WARNING - (a/c automatically downgrades RA to TA when a stall/GPWS/windshear alert is triggered & also when below 1000’AGL)

“AIR CANADA 123 TCAS RA”

If unable to comply with ATC clearance: “AIR CANADA 123 UNABLE, TCAS RA”

“CLEAR OF CONFLICT” - call-out:
IF TCAS mode:
ALT mode engages and V/S +/- 1000 fpm towards original altitude
AP/FD - ON
Follow FD Before engaging AP
Adjust speed/lateral path as required

“AIR CANADA 123 CLEAR OF CONFLICT, RETURNING TO 9000”

TCAS mode NOT Available:
AP - OFF
FDs - OFF (PM)
V/S - keep out of Red band
Respect any STALL, GPWS, or WINDSHEAR WARNING - (a/c automatically downgrades RA to TA when a stall/GPWS/windshear alert is triggered & also when below 1000’AGL)

“AIR CANADA 123 TCAS RA”

“CLEAR OF CONFLICT” - call-out:
IF no TCAS mode:
FD - On
Confirm appropriate lateral/vertical modes before engaging AP
Adjust speed/lateral path as required

“AIR CANADA 123 CLEAR OF CONFLICT, RETURNING TO 9000”

IF CLIMB RA on Final Approach:
“GO-AROUND, FLAPS”

AP can stay on and follow SRS, but ensure that V/S - keep out of Red band

Respect any STALL, GPWS, or WINDSHEAR WARNING - (a/c automatically downgrades RA to TA when a stall/GPWS/windshear alert is triggered & also when below 1000’AGL)

Question 34

Intercept Glideslope From Above

Answer 34

Recommended:
-FLAP 2 (minimum)
