Q

DITCHING guarded pushbutton, what happen?

A

“close” signal to the

outflow valve,
emergency ram air inlet,
avionics ventilation inlet and extract valves,
pack flow control valves.

Note: The outflow valve will not close automatically, if it is under manual
control

CAUTION: If the ditching pb is set to ON, with the low pressure ground
cart connected and all doors closed, a differential pressure will
build up

Q

“HIGH” or “LOW” on the PROG page

A

“HIGH” or “LOW” on the PROG page indicates the FM position accuracy, based
on estimated uncertainty. When GPS PRIMARY mode is lost, the flight crew must
periodically check this position accuracy. In GPS PRIMARY mode, the position
accuracy is always at HIGH.

Q

Below maneuvering speed (F, S, Green Dot) BANK LIMITATION

A

Below maneuvering speed (F, S, Green Dot) – 10 kt, the autopilot or flight director
(AP/FD) cannot order a bank angle greater than 15 °.

Above maneuvering speed – 10 kt, this limit linearly increases until it reaches:
‐ In selected lateral guidance: 25 ° at maneuvering speed – 3 kt. The limit is then
25 ° for all speeds above maneuvering speed – 3 kt.

‐ In managed lateral guidance: 30 ° at maneuvering speed – 3 kt. The limit is
then 30 ° for all speeds above maneuvering speed – 3 kt.

Q

FMGS RESET

A

When the FM software cannot work properly or receives instructions to perform impossible
operations, it automatically resets itself. A resynchronization with the other FM always follows.

When the reset is a minor one, the system will recover by itself. One single reset lasts 2 to 3 s maximum followed by 25 s of resynchronization.

When the reset is a major one:
‐ Resets recur at short intervals (several in 2 or 3 min)
‐ The memories are cleared, leading to the loss of F-PLN, GW, CI, CRZ FL, MCDU-entered
speeds and NAVAIDs and to database switching

CAUTION: If three dual FM resets occur in 2 min, pilot-entered data is lost. If a dual reset is
identified, it is recommended that the flight crew does not perform again the last
MCDU actions for 1 min (in order to avoid a potential second dual reset, leading to
the loss of pilot-entered data)

NOTE: 2 MINUTES ONLY ON OUR PR-YY FLEET. ALL OTHERS ACFT IS 3 MINUTES

Q

FMS erronous trajectory display during cockpit preparation, example showing a right turn instead of a left turn. Should we still use?

A

CAUTION: Even if the flight plan is correct during the Cockpit Preparation or during the
Descent Preparation, the FMS may compute and display an erroneous trajectory
when the FMS updates its predictions after takeoff or after go-around initiation.

THE CREW SHOULD SELECT HDG/TRK

Q

A/THR instinctive disconnect for 15 s

A

CAUTION: If the flight crew presses, and holds one A/THR instinctive disconnect pb for more
than 15 s, the A/THR will disconnect for the remainder of the flight. All A/THR
modes, including A.FLOOR, will be lost. The A/THR will be recovered at the next
