Gotchas Flashcards
Reject reasons above 100 kts
- Eng. fail/fire
- Sidestick fault
- Reversers unlock/fault
- Eng. Thr levers fault
- Red ECAMs
- Windshear
Slats/Flaps jam
- Speed Pull to make sure you are flying at safe speed. Select current speed.
FCU fault
Will get “PFD Baro ref : standard only” on ECAM
- You have to go to FCOM Expanded failures to know what to do and can use
FMGC resets
FCOM / AC SYSTEMS / AUTO FLT / FLT MANAGEMENT / ABNORMAL OPS / FMGC RESETS
Dual Eng. Failure ECAM
At the “Eng/Fuel Proc” line …….. Call “Stop ECAM” and then “QRH Eng. dual fail, fuel remaining”
Elec. Emer. Config.
After ECAM, there is a QRH summary.
- If time, check FCTM
- Tune ILS frequency in the radio panel, because you will loose MCDU when selecting gear down (on some fins, depending on rat model)
V1 Cut
- Do NOT accelerate/retract flaps before you hear “Engine secured”, that’s why we say accelerate at or above eng. out acceleration altitude. So no level off before that, and of course, you need to be at least at eng. out acceleration altitude.
- In the case of a low go around altitude with for example an engine fire WITH THRUST, the risk is getting to the m/a altitude before engine is secured and the a/c might accelerate very fast, risking to overspeed the flaps. Be mindful of that and consider deferring drill a bit and going into selected speed as to not overspeed flaps. This can happen very quickly so s/a is critical (pay attention to thrust and engine parameters). Continue drill once airspeed is under control.
After ECAM
- Always go check QRH to see WAC and fuel factor, no matter if ECAM says “apply lading procedure” or not
Passenger Evacuation
You read checklist items and Captain responds and actions it.
Ex:
“CHECKLIST – PASSENGER EVACUATION”………………………………………. ORDER CA
“PASSENGER EVACUATION CHECKLIST”……………………………………ANNOUNCE FO
“PARKING BRAKE – ON”……………………………………………………………. ANNOUNCE FO
PARKING BRAKE……………………………………………………………………..CONFIRM ON CA
“ON”…………………………………………………………………………………………..ANNOUNCE CA
