~The lead FA or any other FA must proceed to the cockpit immediately.
~The FA must then
.Tighten and manually lock the shoulder harness of the incapacitated crew member.
.Push the seat completely aft
.Recline the seat back.

.If able, remove the body from the and replace with type qualified company pilot, if available.

COM 3.80.14

Question 2

OEI - Obstacle Strategy

Answer 2

Before Descent

.Set MCT
.A/THR OFF
.Notify ATC
.Decel to Green dot speed
.Determine Cruise FL (Perf)
~Ceiling at green dot speed from QRH per-e ceilings
.Start ECAM Actions

Drift Down
.Speed on FCU: Green Dot-Pull
.ALT on FCU: Selected Cruise FL - Pull
~Note: The thrust is set at MCT, the speed is controlled by the elevator.

=If obstacle problems exists: Continue Driftdown procedure
=When Obstacle Clear: Accel to LR Speed

Cruise Long Range Speed
.Speed on FCU: Set according to PER_OEI_CRT_10 Standard and Obstacle Strategy
.A/THR On
~Note: Speed is controlled by the A/THR

Descent to Landing
Idle
M.78/300KT/250KT

COM 3.10.15

Question 3

Severe Turbulence

Answer 3

.Signs-ON
.A/P- Keep On
.A/THR- (when thrust changes become excessive)-Disconnect
.Turbulence Speed-Set
~A319: 050-199=255kts / 200-329=280 / 330-390=.76
~A320: 250 / 275 / .76
~A320N: 260/ 280 / .76
~A321C: 275/ 305 / .76
~A321S: 270/ 300 / .76
.For Altitude- Expect variations/Do not chase/Change FL to or below OPT FL in order to increase margin to buffet
.Descent-Consider
.For Approach- A/THR in managed speed-Use
.For Landing
~Conf Full or 3 may can be used
~Conf Full=better handling, Conf 3=more energy and less drag

COM 3.220.13

Question 4

Stall Recovery

Answer 4

Buffet, Aural Warning, ( Stall, Stall red message on PFD-NEO-)

.Nose down pitch control-Apply
.Bank-Wings Level
~When out of stall ( No Stall indication )
.Thrust-Increase Smoothly as needed
.Speedbrakes-Retracted 
.Flight Path-Recover Smoothly
~If in clean configuration and below 20,000'
.Flap 1-Select

~Note: If a risk of ground contact exists, once clearly out of the stall ( no stall indication ), smoothly establish a positive climb gradient.

COM 3.10.28

Question 5

Stall Warning at Lift-Off

Answer 5

~Note: Spurious stall warning may sound in Normal Law, if an angle of attack probe is damaged. In this case, immediately and simultaneously, apply the following actions:

.Thrust-TOGA
.Pitch Attitude-15
.Bank-Wings Level

COM 3.10.30

Question 6

Windshear

Answer 6

T/O
=If Before V1
.Reject
=After V1
.Thr Levers-TOGA
.Reaching Vr-Rotate
.SRS Orders-Follow
=Airborne, Initial Climb, Landing
.Thr Levers at TOGA-Set or Confirm
.AP (If Engaged)- Keep ON
.SRS Orders-Follow

Do not change Configuration
Closely monitor flight path
Recover smoothly to normal climb when out of shear.
~Go Around Flaps~

COM 3.80.60

Question 7

Windshear Ahead

Answer 7

=Before T/O
.Delay T/O
=During T/O Run
.Reject T/O
~Predictibe windshear alerts are inhibited above 100 kts until 50 feet
=When Airborne
.Thr Levers-TOGA
.AP ( If engaged )-Keep On
.SRS Orders-Follow
=Landing
.Go Around-Perform
.AP ( If engaged )- Keep On

~W/S Ahead Amber
.Delay T/O
.Evaluate T/O Conditions
.Select favorable runway
.Use PWS and Wx Radar before T/O for an informed decision
.Select TOGA
.Monitor closely airspeed and airspeed trend.
