Simulator Review Items Flashcards
Memory Item: Loss of Braking
If no reverse:
PF “Loss of braking”.
REV…..Max
Brake Pedals….. Release
NB release brake pedals before switching off nose wheel steering to avoid harsh brake application when this transfers braking to alternate brake mode.
A/Skid Off….. Order
A/Skid & N/W STRG…. Off
Brake pedals….. press
Max Brk PR….. 1000 PSI
If still no Braking
Park Brake…. Use (accumulator designed to give 7 full applications)
NB: brake accumulator pressure can be applied by the blue electrical pump switch.
Normal braking supplied by green system. Auto brake requires green system.
Blue system supplies Alternate braking, parking brake available via accumulator if G and B system fail.
Memory Item Emergency Descent
PF: “Emergency Descent”.
Crew Oxygen Masks…… Use (remember to take headset off and put it on after mask application.
Set to InT on COMMs panel)
Signs……. On
Emer Descent…….. Initiate.
-Alt set to higher of MSA or 10,000ft and pull.
-Heading turn where appropriate.
-Speed increase
If A/THR not active and cannot be reengaged.
THR Levers…… Idle
SPD BRK…… Full
Non memory:
When descent established
Speed…. Max appropriate
If structural damage suspected manoeuvre with care.
ENG start selector…. IGN
ATC…. notify
(Mayday, Emergency ACARS page or SAT COM)

Try to regain clearance.
If re clearance allows might not need to do all actions.
If no re clearance obtained
Try ACARS
Lights on
Broadcast MaYDAY on 121.5 and 123.45
Monitor TCAS
Monitor PF
ECAM
After descent complete A/THR on.

Stabilised approach calls
At 1000ft above aerodrome:
“Stabilised”
“Not stabilised”
“Speed” (Speed allowed to be Vls +30kts provided at Vapp +10/-5 by 500ft.
PF response:
“Checked”
“Correcting”
“Continue to 500ft”
At 500ft
“Stabilised” or “Not stabilised”
PF response: “Checked” or “Go Around”
Medium Autobrake recommended for
Contaminated Runways
Short Runways
Tail wind
Circle App Landings
Auto-land/Cat II with manual land.
Overweight landing.
Limiting cross wind landings.
If on gusty approach speed can be modified to…
VApp may be adjusted to between VLS+ 5 to “not above” VLS +15kts.
Glide slope Capture from above
Press APP p/b
Confirm G/S is armed
Select 1500ft -2000ft per min on V/S
Select FCU alt to above platform alt to avoid alt capture
At G/S capture remember to set G/A alt.
A/THR on APP
Auto pilot and A/THR SHOULD remain engaged when in IMC.
If a large speed reduction is anticipated at landing in IMC then A/THR can be disengaged and THR flown manually
If manual thrust to be used A/THR SHOULD be disconnected by 1000ft AAL in VMC.
Gear should be selected down
By 5.5 DME to Threshold.
Stabilised approach
Bank angle < 7 degrees.
ROD less than 1000ft per min
(Note: ROD can be increased by 150 ft per min per 0.5 degrees of G/S)
LOC or G/S deviation < 1 dot
VOR +/- 1/2 dot or ADF < 5 degrees
RNAV 1 dot vertical scale 0.1nm XTRK
Speed between Vapp +10kts and Vapp -5kts. Can be below VLS +30kts. (This is Allowed in IMC and VMC).

MEMORY ACTION: TCAS traffic advisory
TCAS:
“I have control”
check armed
“TCAS, TCAS blue”
If A/THR is off set to on
Note: this insures AUTO FLT A/THR limited alert. At the automatic autothrust Activation that occurs in TCAS RA.
DO NOT perform action on TCAS advisory alone
Don’t cancel any audio alt alerts as this may silence subsequent TCAS warnings.
MEMORY ACTION: TCAS RA
“TCAS I HAVE CONTROL” or “TCAS”
If TCAS not armed
AP:OFF
FDs: Off
V/S Adjust or maintain. Pitch change 4 degrees at low alts, 2 degrees at high alts.
PM advises ATC of RA.
When clear of conflict.
Level off
FDs on
AP on
A/THR: re engage.
If an RA during an approach in conf 3 or full. Perform GA.
PM to advise ATC when clear of conflict.
TCAS TA/ RA give pilot how much time to respond.
5 seconds and 2.5 seconds respectively.
MEMORY ACTION: Windshear warning
If before V1 reject Take off.
If after V1.
THR/LVRs TOGA
AP: keep in if engaged
FD orders follow (if no FDs pitch to 17.5 degrees initially and increase if required)
Do not change aircraft config until clear of windshear.
PM to call rate of climb/descent.
Smoothly recover when out of windshear.
MCDU pages for approaches
PF is PerF
PM is F-PLN
Unless otherwise required for tactical reasons.
When flying 3D approaches
Flap 2 to be taken before TOD point
Push NAV when cleared to intercept
Arm APP when cleared for app.
Check for blue down arrow
If no brick check ILS not selected in panel.
If no FINAL app select TRK FPA and suitable FPA. (Also do this is FM/GPS pos disagree).
Max 3 degrees difference allowed.
When visual.
AP: OFF
FDs: OFF
TRK FPA If applicable
Set RWY TRK.
Note if MAP occurs at minima no need to do the above
When flying a VOR approach
PF use ROSE VOR with inbound course set. (Remember to check this before start of approach.
ATHR should be used
Use managed speed.
Selected NP approach
At 1DME to TOD select rate of descent.
Pull at 0.3 DME to TOD
Set GA alt
PM to call out all altitudes on the way down.
Aircraft should be in landing config by FAF
