  • Amber Caution (Single Chime)
23
Q

CALLOUTS - Latest altitude (RA) for CM2 to give ‘NO LAND’

24
Q

CALLOUTS - Latest altitude (RA) for CM2 to give ‘NO FLARE’

25
Q

For an LVTO with RVR below 150m but NOT LESS than 125m, which criteria must apply?

A
  • High Intensity Runway Centre Line Lights spaced 15m
  • High Intensity Edge Lights spaced 60m
  • A 90m visual segment, visible from flight crew at the start of the take-off run

A320 CAT III FAIL OPERATIONAL with DH, the Minimum Decision Height is

30
Q

The CALLOUT ‘LAND’ is done by:

31
Q

Above 1000ft, downgrading from CAT III to CAT II is permitted IF:

A
  • ECAM (checklist) actions are completed
  • RVR is at least EQUAL to CAT II minima
  • Briefing is amended to include CAT II procedure and DH
  • Decision to downgrade is completed above 1000ft AGL
32
Q

Above 1000ft, downgrading from CAT II to CAT I is permitted IF:

A
  • ECAM (checklist) actions are completed
  • At least one FD is available
  • RVR is at least EQUAL to CAT I minima
  • Briefing is amended to include CAT I procedure and DH
  • Decision to downgrade is completed above 1000ft AGL
33
Q

In a CAT III DUAL approach, is a go-around mandatory in case of a single failure below AH?

A

NO. Only if the AUTOLAND warning light is triggered.

34
Q

How can a localizer and glideslope RECEIVER failure be identified?

A
  • The PFD and ND (rose ILS mode) display red LOC and G/S flags
  • LOC and G/S scales disappear from the PDF
35
Q

How can a localizer and glideslope TRANSMITTER failure be identified?

A
  • The corresponding index is lost
  • The LOC and G/S scales flash
  • The corresponding FD bar flashes
36
Q

The 90m visual segment corresponds to:

A
  • 8 lights (HICL spaced 15m)
  • 15 lights (HICL spaced 7.5m)

41
Q

The minimum RVR value for midpoint can be 75m, if:

45
Q

Controlling RVR means…

A

…the reported values of one or more RVR reporting locations (TDZ, MID and END) are used to determine whether operating minima are or not met.
