Q

Below 400’ RA “LAND” indicates what?

A

LOC and GS Modes are locked. No action on the FCU will disengage the LAND Mode.

FLARE and ROLL OUT modes will successively engage.

Q

At 40’ RA “FLARE” indicates that the autopilot is doing what?

A

Aligning the yaw axis with the runway centerline and flaring in pitch.

If A/THR is active during an autoland, thrust is automatically reduced to idle.

Q

On Ground, does “ROLL OUT” indicate that the autopilot is guiding the aircraft?

A

Yes, the autopilot is guiding the aircraft along the runway centerline and the PFD displays the Yaw Bar.

16
Q

When we see “A. Floor” on the PFD, what has just happened?

A

An Alpha Floor triggering condition was met in normal law (primarily high angle of attack).

17
Q

When “A.Floor” is displayed, (can be between liftoff and 100’ RA on approach), what does autothrust do?

A

commands TOGA thrust.

18
Q

How do you get out of “TOGA Lock” following an Alpha Floor event?

A

By Disconnecting the A/THR

19
Q

“Thrust Lock,” in Amber, means what?

A

Autothrust was disconnected by failure or selection while thrust levers are in the CL (or MCT) detent.

20
Q

How do you disengage THR LK?

A

Moving thrust levers back from CL

21
Q

The retard is a reminder @10’ during autoland to bring thrust levers to idle.
At ____during a manual landing if they are not already there

A

20’
