- Pack outlet overheat
What specific openings/valves?
Sends a “close” signal to the inlets and valves below the water line.
- Outflow valve
- Emergency Ram inlet

What are the three methods available to disconnect the Autothrust?
- Press either AUTO THRUST INSTINCTIVE DISCONNECT pushbuttons.
- Retard both Thrust Levers to idle.
- Push A/THR pb on FCU.
Which of these will cause a “Thrust Lock” condition?
- Press either AUTO THRUST INSTINCTIVE DISCONNECT pushbuttons.
- Retard both Thrust Levers to idle.
- Push A/THR pb on FCU.
- Push A/THR pb on FCU.
What action is required to restore conventional manual thrust control from a “Thrust Lock” condition?
Move the Thrust Levers
On takeoff, what speed does SRS command… Normally (all engines operating)?
Normal: SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain airspeed at V2 + 10.
What does the lateral mode RWY represent?
Runway mode is engaged. This mode provides steering guidance during the takeoff roll and initial climb (30 feet RA) if a localizer signal is available.
Armed. (blue A/THR in right-hand column)
During a normal takeoff, when will the A/THR become engaged?
A/THR is active (white A/THR on FMA) after the Thrust Lever is moved to the CLB detent.
What is the difference between the vertical modes CLB and OP CLB?
CLB = Managed Climb mode is engaged. The FMGS target altitude is higher than the actual altitude. This mode is used to climb towards the FCU selected altitude along the verticalflight plan (NAV must be engaged). Pitch guidance is given to hold the airspeed target.
FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are taken into account.
OP CLB = Open Climb mode is engaged. The FCU selected altitude is higher than the actual altitude.
This mode is used to climb towards the FCU selected altitude at a constant airspeed.
FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are ignored. Pitch guidance is given to hold the airspeed target.
Describe ALT CRZ?
Altitude Hold (Cruise) Mode is engaged and pitch guidance is given to hold cruise altitude. The altitude is permitted to vary +- 50 feet from the selected altitude to minimize thrust variations.
Soft Altitude: Upon reaching planned cruise altitude, ALT CRZ engages and A/THR maintains the Speed/Mach target. Two minutes after ALT CRZ engages, if the Mach mode is operative, SOFT ALTITUDE mode engages. This allows the aircraft to deviate +/- 50 feet from the target altitude, thereby minimizing thrust variations and reducing fuel consumption.
What is the difference between the vertical modes DES and OP DES?
DES = (NAV must be engaged) Managed Descent mode is engaged and the FMGS target altitude is lower than the actual altitude. FMS-programmed altitude constraints are taken into account. Pitch guidance is given to acquire and track a vertical profile.
OP DES = Open Descent mode is engaged and the FCU selected altitude is lower than the actual altitude. This mode is used to descend directly to the FCU selected altitude at a constant airspeed. FMGS-programmed altitude constraints are ignored. Pitch guidance is given to maintain target airspeed.
Cyan “1” = V1, 135
Cyan circle = Vr, 142
Magenta triangle = V2, 147
During Acceleration, S Speed is defined as Minimum Flap Retraction speed when the Flap Handle is in position 1. During acceleration it is the lowest speed to select Flaps 0.
Green Dot Speed is best lift over drag speed. Green Dot is also the minimum maneuvering speed in the clean configuration. (Green Dot speed appears when the aircraft is flying in the clean configuration. )
Amber “=“ sign represents Vfe next (the maximum speed corresponding to the next flap lever position)
Minimum Maneuvering speed with the Flaps in 2 or 3.
During Deceleration, Green dot, S-speed, and F-speed represent the minimum maneuvering speed for the associated configuration. (Green dot=clean, S=Flaps 1, F=Flaps 2 or 3). With ‘managed speed’ and Auto-Thrust on, it is also the lowest speed the A/Thr will allow the aircraft to slow to (assuming the target speed is lower).
- Vls (lowest selectable)
- Alpha Prot (speed at which AOA Protection becomes active)
- Alpha Max (max obtainable AOA in normal law)
Normal Law
- Vls (Lowest selectable)
- Vsw (stall warning)
Alternate or direct law.
The signal will only be apparent in the Flight Deck and the alert will only sound in the Flight Deck for 3 seconds, the EVAC light flashes.
- EVAC light flashes and the horn sounds for 3 seconds.
If your ACP failed, how would you communicate?
Switch to CAPT3 or FO3, utilize your own acoustic equipment and the third occupants ACP.
AC BUS 1 has just failed. Will the AC ESS BUS remain powered?
Which bus supplies the AC ESS BUS in this condition?
Yes.
AC BUS 2.
AC ESS BUS is not powered
HOT/LOP
High oil outlet temperature / Low oil pressure
AC BUS 1 = GEN 1
AC BUS 2 = EXT PWR
What is the primary purpose of the ELAC(s)?
Elevator, Aileron, and Horizontal Stabilizer control
For an Engine Fire system test, what indications are we looking for in the cockpit?
Continuous Repetitive Chime (CRC),
MASTER WARN lights flash,Next
ENG FIRE warning appears on ECAM,
ENG FIRE pushbutton illuminates red,
SQUIB lights illuminate white,
DISCH lights illuminate amber,
FIRE light on ENG panel illuminates red.
What automatically occurs if you have an APU fire while on the ground?
Automatic Shutdown and Automatic Extinguisher activation
Bottle 1 has low pressure
Power is removed from the aft avionics rack.
