Q

AUTOMATIC EXTENSION OF GROUND SPOILERS happens ?

A

Wheel speed >72 knots

Ground spoilers are armed

All thrust levers are retarded to IDLE

16
Q

AUTOMATIC BRAKING ACTIVATION ( MAX or RTOW mode) when?

A

AUTOBRAKING is commanded by the ground spoilers extension but they won’t happen if the RTO is initiated below 72 Knots.

17
Q

When should you REJECT the takeoff?

A

Below 100 knots: any ECAM WARNING/CAUTION

Between 100 knots and V1:
Fire warning or severe damage
Sudden loss of engine thrust
Aircraft will not fly safely
Any RED ECAM Warning
Any amber ECAM caution of the ENG system or F/CTL
18
Q

What are the RTO actions from the PF?

A
CALL...................."STOP"
All thrust levers.....IDLE
Reverse thrust......MAX AVAILABLE
Aircraft stopped: 
REVERSE...............STOWED
PARKING BRAKE...APPLY
PA Call...................."Attention crew! At stations
Announce ..............ECAM ACTIONS
19
Q

What are the RTO actions from the PNF?

A
Reverse............check/announce
Deceleration.....check/announce
Any audio..........cancel
ATC....................inform
EMERGENCY EVAC PROCEDURE.....locate
ECAM actions.........initiate
20
Q

What is the EMERGENCY EVAC preparation?

A

PF: Announce……….”STOP ECAM”

Announce…………….”emergency evacuation procedure

PNF: ECAM ACTIONS………STOP

EMER EVAC PROC…………..READ and DO

21
Q

What is the EMER EVAC DECISION ?

A

PA call……..”EVACUATE”

EMER EVAC COMMAND……ON

22
Q

What happens when you lose 2 Radio Altimeters (NAV 1+2 FAULT)?

A

No AUTO CALLOUT
The G/S mode and the APPR mode can’t be engaged
The LOC is available but the AP/FD must be monitored
The GS signal is properly received
The status will change to DIRECT LAW with the LG down.

23
Q

What is the approach prep for both RA failed (NAV RA 1+2 FAULT).

A

Plan for an ILS
Don’t engage ILS APPR

LOC armed or RAW data
Use Track-FPA (Bird)

CONFIG 3
GEAR not down warning is triggered from FLAP 3 position

APPROACH speed: Vref + 10
NO AUTO CALLOUT during the flare

24
Q

ELEC EMER CONFIG is powered by what?

A

When Aircraft is in flight (>100k) RAT extends automatically and powers the BLUE system which drives the EMER GEN.

ELEC EMER CONFIG is caused by a loss of all AC buses, loss of all engines, loss of all generators, or a combo of failures.

25
Q

How is a GO Around conducted?

A

THRUST levers……TOGO
ROTATION…….Pitch 15 degrees…or 12.5 SE and then follow SRS
