After aviating navigating and communicating Pa the cabin crew.
“Number one to the flight deck immediately”
Auto Pilot and Auto Thrust should be engaged
for the initial and intermediate sections of the approach and until required visual references have been established.
Gear down should be selected by
5.5 DME A 330.
On A330 don’t select flap… until speed is below…
Flap 2: 196kts.
Flap full: VFE -15kts
Other flap settings: VFE -10kts
Auto Brake MED
is recommended for
Wet or contaminated runways
Tail wind approaches
Auto land
Short runways
Landing in limiting crosswinds.
Flap full is recommended for
Auto land/ Cat II manual land.
Landing on contaminated runways.
Landing with tailwind
Circle to land
Overweight landing.
Landing on shorter runways.
Glide slope intercept from above.
When cleared and aircraft is established on the localiser.
Press APP and check armed
Set FCU alt to above aircraft alt
Select V/S 1500ft per min initially.
Select conf 2 and gear down to aid slowdown and descent. Speed brake may also be used
Note Open descent must not be used during this procedure.
At NP approach minima.
At entered minimum call for/select and announce
AP: off
Both FDs: off
TRK/FPA
Set RWY TRK
Autopilot minimum disconnect height.
160ft RA when Cat 1 displayed
80 ft RA when Cat II/III displayed
Conditions required for Managed Guidance/3D approaches.
GPS PRIM NAV ACC HIGH or
NAV ACC low and <1nm (0.3nm for RNAV?)
(If error is greater than this TRK/FPA with selected guidance is required.
Approach not changed by the crew
When FAF is TO waypoint FROM waypoint must not be cleared.
No procedure turn between 2 approach waypoints.
Landing field temp is greater than 0 degrees.
Vertical profile intercepted before FAF
Flap 2 must be selected before final descent point. (Consider being fully configured at FDP if TW, unfamiliar aerodrome or bad weather)
If TOO STEEP PATH is displayed after the FDP then do not use final approach guidance for the approach.
Make sure you are at the platform alt before arming the approach.
Flying 3D managed approaches
When cleared for intercept push NAV
Select APP when cleared for approach
Flap 2 minimum for TOD point
Check blue down arrow is correctly displayed on the ND
Check brick is displayed. If not could be due to ILS being selected on FGCP.
At descent point check FINAL APP becomes active.
If the brick does not become active you can select TRK FPA and a suitable FPA. Need to add 50ft to the DA.
Select GA alt at this point.
Note if not backed up by VOR or LOC approach must be discontinued if FINAL APP not engaged.

FMS/GPS position disagree during approach.
Go around if approach not backed up by VOR/LOC or NDB
If it is you can
Select TRK/FPA
