Intercepting Glideslope from Above
Gear down, Flaps 2
Appr mode - Check armed
Must be on Loc
Set FCU Altitude above your height
V/S -1500 to start
Early / untimely flare mode
Perform go around
or
Disc AP
FDs off
Continue with raw data or external references
Weird indications with RA and FMA may occur, including pulsing Cab Press advisory. This advisory has no consequence on real cabin pressure
For Cat II/II
If Amber Chime or Landing capability degraded below Briefed level
Above 1000’ AGL:
Apply ECAM/QRH
Check Appr and Landing capability
Check required equip
If req’d adjust RVR/DH/Brief
Go around if all not done by 1000’
Below 1000AGL:
Go around unless can continue visually (Cat II)
Below 100’ (Cat III Dual)
May continue unless “Autoland” warning displayed
If Cat II and Autoland with sufficient visual references can manually land
Degraded Nav (RNP with LNAV or LNAV/VNAV mins)
Discontinue Appr if:
GPS primary lost BOTH sides
XTK> 0.3nm
NAV FM/GPS POS DISAGREE ECAM
Nav Accur Downgrade BOTH sides
Continue with unaffected AP/FD if
GPS Primary Lost ONE side
Nav Accur Downgrade ONE side
Visual Approach (Circling)
Setup:
F-Pln enter approach and missed
Sec revise landing runway (eg circling)
Flying:
Fly approach stabilized at Flaps 3 at “F” speed
If visual by 1000AAE, level off
To maneuver select TRK/FPA
Turn 45 degree crosswind for 30s
In downwind leg Activate Sec
Start timer abeam threshold (3s/100ft)
AP/FDs off before descent to runway
Select Flaps Full when on final descent and to satisfy SALGA (configured by 1000AAE)
Visual Approach (Circuit)
Procedure and Wx mins
Required weather: 1500’ ceiling 5sm viz
Select Downwind Track
Abeam runway:
Press PERF Key
Activate Appr Phase
Managed Speed
Select GA altitude
Green dot or below Flaps 1
Abeam Threshold set timer (3s/100ft)
Flaps 2 before base turn, Gear down
Before descent AP/FDs off
Use the bird
Flaps Full on final descent
Have PM select final approach track
Pitch/Bank callouts for landing
“Pitch pitch” at 10 (7.5 for 321)
“Bank bank” approaching 7 degrees
If no ground spoilers extend on landing:
Check both thrust levers are Idle
Select Max Reverse and fully press brake pedals
(If not armed, spoilers will extend with reverse thrust selected)
(If spoilers don’t extend, Autobrake will not activate)
Autoland Lims
Left seat Pilot must be PF
Can do Cat I Autoland in Canada if not prohibited in 10-10 pages
Other countries no Cat I Autoland
PM: At 350 RA check “Land” is annunciated
PM: At 40 RA check “Flare” is annunciated
(Otherwise Go around or manual landing if visual sufficient)
If NWS or AntiSkid failure Set AP off at touchdown
PM: Check “ Rollout” is displayed
Get Cat II System Inop without any other failures
Tune an ILS freq like 108.0 and 0 degrees in any Rad Nav page, check message goes away and clear the frequency
FCOM 22_30-110
SALGA
(Gates and targets)
1000’ Configuration Gate:
Landing config, Ldg Memo no blue
PM repeats non compliant condition
500’ Stable Gate:
Speed +10/-5
V/S stabilized and <1000fpm
Thrust stabilized and appropriate
PM repeats non compliant condition
200’ Go Around Gate:
Must go around if 1000 and 500’ requirements not met
If DA < 300’ with no Auto Callouts the Minimums call will act as GA Gate
“Unstabilized” if conditions not met
Shall commence go around if “Unstabilized” called at any time during approach
Park brake not released until:
LDF reconciled
T/O Perf entered
Ground crew ready
Clearance (Push or taxi) received
Tow forward engines running
Not normally allowed.
May pre plan (and brief) tow forward with only ONE engine running if:
Heaviest tractor is used
Lowest possible speed
Minimum turning angles
Unplanned and ground crew not ready:
Ground crew will co-ordinate stop and request engines be shut down
NEVER tow an aircraft onto gate with an engine running
