89
Q
  1. FUEL panel

Generally, what is the total fuel capacity?

A

42,000 lb (41, 285)

90
Q
  1. FUEL panel

Why is it possible for the fuel computer to indicate 42, 200 lbs on ECAM when fueled to MAX capacity?

A

The fuel can expand by 2% without venting overboard.

91
Q
  1. FUEL panel

Where are the fuel pumps located?

A

 2 Center tank pumps and 2 wing tank pumps per wing.

 The APU has it’s own pump. (When does it run? CTR tank pumps OFF)

92
Q
  1. FUEL panel

Are the pumps in the center tank different from the wing pumps?

A

They are identical pumps, but plumbing creates different outputs. The Center pumps have a greater system output

93
Q
  1. FUEL panel

Explain the flow of fuel from before engine start to taxi out. (Assume full tanks)

A

At engine start the fuel is fed from the wing tanks. After both engines are started, the center tank pumps turn on and continue to run until slats are selected then the stop. At t/o the engines feed fuel from the respective wing tanks. When slats are zero, the fuel is fed from the center tank. (After center tank runs dry, the pumps continue to run for 5 min)

139
Q
  1. Glareshield

Explain the side stick operation and the associated glare shield SIDE STICK PRIORITY light.

A

 Normally only one side stick should be operated at any given time.

 Should there be dual input, an aural “DUAL INPUT” will be annunciated over the speaker and the SIDE STICK PRIORITY green CAPT and F/O lights will flash - side stick inputs are algebraically summed.

 Any time a pilot monitoring has to assume control, it MUST be verbally annunciated ( “I
HAVE CONTROL”) – the pilot taking over MUST press and hold the takeover push button.

 If the pilot previously flying does not relinquish control or there is a malfunction present, the side stick can be rendered inoperative by holding the takeover push button for 40 seconds. An aural alert “PRIORITY LEFT (RIGHT”) will be annunciated over the speaker and the SIDE STICK PRIORITY red arrow light will illuminate in front of the pilot losing authority.

 The pilot having lost side stick authority can regain it by momentarily pressing the takeover push button.
