Q

In normal law, what is maximum nose up pitch angle?

A

Plus 30 nose up (reduced to 25 if low angle of attack protection regime entered).

Reduce both of these numbers by 5 if in CONF Full

Q

What is positive spiral static stability?

A

Auto trim will help us maintain level flight up to 33 degrees angle of bank. If sidestick released, bank angle will be fixed.

Beyond 33 degrees, if sidestick released, it will return to 33 degrees.

Over 33 degrees, THS fixed

Q

What is maximum angle of bank in high speed regime?

A

40 degrees

17
Q

What is VLS?

A

Lowest selectable speed.

With autothrust in, aircraft with not decelerate below VLS.

18
Q

What is VLS based on?

A

VS 1G

Stall speed at 1G. VLS is normally set on approach at 1.23 x VS1G (VREF)

19
Q

What speed can aircraft decelerate to with autothrust in?

A

VLS

20
Q

What speed can aircraft decelerate to without autothrust?

A

V alpha prot

21
Q

What speed will aircraft settle on with autothrust out and neutral sidestick?

A

V alpha prot

22
Q

What speed can you reach with full aft sidestick and autothrust off?

A

V alpha max

23
Q

What does sidestick command below v alpha max?

A

Angle of attack, rather than load factor

24
Q

What is alpha floor?

A

An autothrust mode (not a protection)

When speed reduces below a certain point, TOGA will be set automatically, regardless of thrust lever position

25
Q

When does autopilot disengage in slow speed?

A

1 degree more of AoA than V alpha prot

26
Q

How is V alpha prot represented on the speed tape?

A

Top of the orange and black

27
Q

How is V alpha max represented on the speed tape?

A

Solid red band

28
Q

How do you get out of TOGA lock?

A

Disengage autothrust
