32
Q

Min Height for AP -
In All Other Phases

A

500 ft AGL (A319/A320)
900 ft AGL (A321)

33
Q

The use of AP or FD in OPEN DES or DES mode is only permitted in approach, when the FCU altitude is set at or above, the higher of the two:

A

Highest of:
MDA/MDH or 500 ft (A319/A320)
MDA/MDH or 900 ft (A321)

Why? b/c in OPEN DES, you’ll be at THR IDLE, speed is controlled by pitch, thrust won’t be able to spooled up

34
Q

NAV mode may be used in the terminal area, provided:

A
  • GPS PRIMARY is available, or
  • The appropriate RNP is checked or entered on the MCDU, and HIGH accuracy is displayed, or
  • FMS navigation is cross-checked with navaid raw data.
35
Q

A319/A321: If one engine is inoperative, it is not permitted to use the autopilot to perform NPAs (non-precision approaches) in the following modes:

A
  • FINAL APP
  • NAV V/S
  • NAV/FPA
  • *Only FD use is permitted.
