Narrow Runway Operations
Landing on narrow runways
A/c 227-229, 601-699
Autoland is not authorized
Dispatch from/to narrow runways is not allowed in case of:
-Nose wheel steering inoperative
-1 brake or more inoperative
Diversion to a normal width runway (148’/45m) is recommended in case of:
-rudder jam
-rudder pedal jam
-yaw damper system fault
-Rudd Travel Limit system fault
-All failures leading to the loss of the nose wheel steering (HYD yellow system loss, double hydraulic failure, double BSCU fault, double LGCIU fault)
Max wind for pax door operation
65 kt
Max wind for cargo door operation
-The maximum wind for FWD or AFT cargo door operation is 40 it (or 50 it, if the aircraft nose is into the wind, or if the FWD and AFT cargo doors are on the leeward side).
-The FWD and AFT cargo doors must be closed before the wind speed exceeds 65 kt.
Max Vmo/Mmo

Slats/Flap speed
701-799
1 - 235 kt
1 + F - 225 kt
2 - 215 kt
3 - 195 kt
Full - 190 kt
*unless an abnormal or emergency procedure dictates otherwise, the maximum speed the slats/flaps will be extended is Vfe-10kts. This provides a safety margin to avoid inadvertently exceeding placarded speeds in case of unanticipated speed increases (e.g., wind change or turbulence induced).
Slats/flaps speed
228-299, 301-399
1 - 230
1+F - 215
2 - 200
3 - 185
Full- 177
*unless an abnormal or emergency procedure dictates otherwise, the maximum speed the slats/flaps will be extended is Vfe-10kts. This provides a safety margin to avoid inadvertently exceeding placarded speeds in case of unanticipated speed increases (e.g., wind change or turbulence induced).
