Q

BMC failure

A

If one BMC fails, the adjacent BMC takes over the monitoring of the bleed system to
issue the following ECAM warnings if necessary:

associated bleed valve does not close automatically.
ENG BLEED LEAK warning is lost for the associated engine, as is also the APU BLEED
LEAK warning if BMC1 has failed.

Rudder limiting
Alternate law yaw
Turn coordination
Trim
Yaw damping

Q

What is beta target? What does it indicate?

A

If one engine fails, FAC modifies sideslip indication to blue.

Indicates optimum aircraft performance.

56
Q

α-floor:

  • When available?
  • Indications?
  • How to cancel?
A

Protection that commands TOGA thrust.

  • Available from liftoff to 100’ RA on approach.
  • “A FLOOR” green, amber flashing box on FMA, amber on E/WD.
  • “TOGA LK” green, amber flashing box on FMA when leaving α-floor conditions. TOGA thrust frozen.
  • “Match & mash”. Move TLs to TOGA, a/thr pb’s. Then, CLB detent or as appropriate.
57
Q

Multiple failures of systems, explain degradation of flight control laws

A 
Broken airplane -->
Alternate law (check Vol 2 for type) -->
Gear down w/ AP on = Alt Law
Gear down w/ AP off = Direct law for landing flare
