Airbus Philosophy
1. AIRBUS GOLDEN RULES
(Source of information: Airbus Flight Operations & Training Support.)
Airbus has changed their GOLDEN RULES FOR PILOTS based on research and experiences of Airbus family
and their investigation and analysis of various accidents / incidents from around the world. These golden
rules outline the priority of actions taken by crew flying the airbus fleet of aircraft.
Golden Rule 1: Fly, Navigate and Communicate:

In this order and with appropriate task sharing.
Flying the aircraft is the primary most important task of the PF. Nothing should distract the PF from this task.
Both the PF & PNF have their tasks clearly outlined clearly and they should perform them as laid down.
The PNF must "ACTIVELY MONITOR' all flight parameters and point out deviations.
Both pilots must maintain their situational awareness and must clear any uncertainty immediately.
Golden Rule 2: Use appropriate levels of automation at all times

It is important to use the appropriate level of automation which depends on the situation at hand and the
task being performed. The pilots judgement is important to decide the required level of automation
which includes selecting manual flight.
The implications of the level of automation should be clearly understood before selecting it.
Once the intended level of automation is selected, the pilot must confirm that the expected reaction of
his actions have been achieved.
Golden Rule 3: Understand the FMA at all times.

Once the PF has made any changes on the FCU, it is immediately reflected on the FMA. It is the duty of
both pilots to Monitor the FMA, Announce the FMA, Confirm the FMA and Understand the FMA.
This means that whatever changes are made by the PF, he should confirm that the same is reflected on
the FMA, and announce it so that both crew are aware of the change made and understand the implications
of the changes.
Update 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
Golden Rule 4: Take action if things don't go as expected.

Every action requires an appropriate reaction by the aircraft. If the PF finds that he has not achieved
this then he must react if required by changing the level of automation. If necessary he should revert to
manual flight. If the PNF finds any discrepancy, he should question the PF, Challenge his action and if
flight safety is compromised be prepared to take over controls.
CHECKLISTS / ECAM PROCEDURES

CHECKLISTS
1. All normal checklists are for challenge and response . The PM will read out the C/L item as a
challenge and the PF will respond to the challenge only after verifying that the current status of the aircraft
in response to the challenge. If the response does not correspond to the required aircraft status
the PF must request the PM to perform the required action or modify his response to reflect the
aircraft status.
Usage of MCDU & FCU Refer to FCTMOP-030 P1-3/30

The FCTM has clearly defined the rules for taksharing in relation to the use of the MCDU & FCU.
These rules keep in mind safe operation and effective CRM between PF & PM.
MCDU : All MCDU inputs must be performed by the PM. They can be performed by the PF during a
temporary change of command. All MCDU changes must be crosschecked.
FCU : When the Auto Pilot is ON, all inputs must be performed by he PF. When the Auto Pilot is OFF
inputs are performed by the PM at the request of the PF. They must be announced in both cases and the PF
must check & announce the PFD FMA targets and mode. The PM must also cross check and announce
"CHECKED"
ECAM PROCEDURES
Whenever an ECAM warning is triggered along with a Master Caution or Master Warning, the following
procedure is to be followed:
1. ECAM ADVISORY: The crew member who notices the advisory will announce:
For eg: "ADVISORY ON ENGINE system"
The PF will instruct the PM to review the said parameter and can refer to the QRH if time permits.
2. ABNORMAL OPS:
The pilot who first notices the Master Caution / Master Warning will:
> Reset the MC/ MW and
> Announce the title of the failure. For eg: in case of : ELEC AC BUS 1 FAULT
"ELECTRICAL, AC BUS 1 FAULT"
> The PF will the call for " ECAM ACTIONS"
> PM will perform the ECAM actions and once complete and ask the PF
"REQUEST CLEAR ELECTRICAL"
> PF after confirming will announce "CONFIRM …CLEAR" The PM will then clear the ECAM.
> The system page will now be reviewed and then PM will ask to clear the said system page:
PM..."REQUEST CLEAR ELECTRICAL"
> PF after confirming will announce "CONFIRM …CLEAR" The PM will then clear the system page.
> The STATUS page is displayed next and the PM will request t review the STATUS:
Update 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
PM …. STATUS?
PF ….. CONFIRM STATUS
The PM will read the status and once complete will ask to remove the page:
PM ….REMOVE STATUS
PF …..CONFIRM REMOVE STATUS
On completion of the said ECAM actions the PM will announce "ECAM ACTIONS COMPLETED"
The crew will now assess the situation and come to a decision.

Task Sharing During ECAM Actions:

> Once ECAM actions have been ordered by the PF, it's his duty fly, navigate and communicate, while the PM
is responsible to manage the failure under the PF's command.
> The PM is not allowed to touch the thrust levers even if called for by the ECAM. They are only with the PF.
> Also all guarded push buttons including the ENG MASTER switch, IR, IDG, FIRE pb etc., are the responsibility
of the PM, but he must get confirmation from the PF before using them except on ground.
> The same holds good for any computer reset procedures.
> In case the ECAM warning / caution disappears while applying the procedure, the same may be stopped.
Airbus Concepts!
1. The VS1g Concept.
As Air flow over the wing increases with the angle of attack, the air pressure decreases and the coefficient
of lift increases. Above a certain angle of attack, the airflow starts to separate from the airfoil. The lift
coefficient increases up to a maximum lift coefficient (Clmax), and suddenly decreases when the AOA is
increased above a certain value.
This phenomenon is called a stall and two speeds can be identified :
Update 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
- VS1g,which corresponds to the maximum lift coefficient(i.e. just before the lift starts decreasing). At
that moment, the load factor is still equal to one (JAR 25 reference stall speed)
- VS, which corresponds to the conventional stall (i.e. when the lift suddenly decreases. At that moment,
the load factor is always less than one (FAR 25 reference stall speed).
“JAR 25.103 Stall speed

(a) The reference stall speed VSR is a calibrated airspeed defined by the applicant.
VSR may not be less than a 1-g stall speed. VSR is expressed as:
Where:
VCLMAX = [speed of maximum lift coefficient, i.e. VS1g]
nzw = Load factor normal to the flight path at VCLMAX”
Change 15 of JAR 25 (October 2000) introduced this notion of reference stall speed VSR, which is the
same as Vs1g. In the previous version of JAR 25, a direct relationship between VS and VS1g was provided,
in order to ensure the continuity between aircraft models certified as Vs, and aircraft models citified as
VS1g. For JAR, this rapport between Vs and Vs1g is: VS = 0.94 x VS1g
All speeds for the Airbus A320 family are with reference to VS1g.
2. Ground Speed Mini

Ground Speed Mini ensures that irrespective of wind variations and gusts during an approach to landing,
the energy level of the aircraft is kept above a minimmum value.
GS mini = VAPP - Tower Head Wind Commponent
To understand this, lets assume that the calculated Vls is 129kts and the reported tower winds is 30kts.
Vapp = 129 +1/3 HW (1/3rd of 30) = 129 + 10 = 139kts
GS mini = Vapp (139) - HW (25) = 114kts
Now irrespective of the HW Componet & Gust, the aircraft ground speed will not drop below 114kts and the
IAS target will increase to ensure that this threshold is always maintained. This will be reflected on the ND.
Update 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
3. SRS Mode. (Speed Reference System)

The SRS mode controls pitch to steer the aircraft along a path in the vertical plain at a speed defined by the
SRS guidance law. In SRS mode, the aircraft minntains a speed target of V2 + 10kts in normal engine
configuration, with a pitch angle of 18 ° and a verrtical speed of 120 ft/min .
In case of a Windshear.
In case of a windshear, the pitch angle will increase to 22 °.
SRS Go-Around.
The SRS mode guides the aircraft with the highest speed of VAPP or IAS at the time of TOGA selection
(limited to maximum of VLS + 25kts with all engines operating and VLS + 15kts with one engine inoperative)
until acceleration altitude where the speed target increases to green dot.
In case V2 is not entered.

If V2 is not entered, the SRS Mode will not engageand the ATHR will not arm. Vertical guidance will not be
available and 5 seconds after lift-off V/S moode will engage at the current speed.
At Thrust Reduction Altitude:
1. SELECT SPD
2. ARM ATHR
3. FD'S SELECT ON
4. MANAGE SPD.
In case Gross Weight is not entered.

If Gross Weight is not entered, NO MANAGED SPEEDS WILL BE AVAILABLE other than preset speeds,
after coming out of take-off phase. Select SPD, Arm ATHR, FD's ON, Manage SPD.
No FD's at Take-Off
FD's OFF before Take-Off Thrust is set.
No FMA indications will be available TOGA
Speed will be defaulted to 100Kts. Select TOGA as FLX Thrust will not be available. SRS will not be
available. Rotate smoothly to 15°
ATHR will not get armed. Once ATHR is selected SPD will drop to 100kts so first select SPD before
arming and selecting ATHR.
At Thrust Reduction Altitude: 1. Select SPD, 2.Arm ATHR, 3.FD's ON, 4.Manage SPD.
FD's trip after Take-off initiated (After Take -Off Thrust is set)
FLX 46 ATHR
Speed will be defaulted to Current SPD or V2 whichever is higher. FLX Thrust is still available.
ATHR will remain Armed. SRS guidance not available. Rotate to 15°
At Thrust Reduction Altitude CLB will flash. Speed should be selected before selecting CLB Thrust since
SPD is defaulted to V2 or SPD at when FD's disengaged.
At Thrust Reduction Altitude: Select SPD, Select CLB Thrust, FD's ON, Manage SPD.

Personal Notes of Capt. V H Ram
NORMAL PROCEDURES
Following of SOP's is vital for the safe conduct of a flight. No compromise should be made in this regard.
Sequence of procedures should be followed strictly to avoid missing important steps.
Please refer to FCOM; PRO-NOR-SOP pages for detailed explanation in this regard. A brief outline is given
below for guidance only starting with Aircraft Power Up to 10000 feet & TOD to Landing.
AIRCRAFT POWER UP.
Normally the aircraft will have the GPU or APU connected. In case the aircraft is not powered the steps
outlined under this section should be followed to power up the Aircraft.
APU Fire Test must be carried out before starting the APU.
EXTERNAL WALKAROUND
This is to ensure that the all the visible external parts and equipment of the aircraft are safe and no
leakages are visible. Any discrepancies must be brought to the notice of the AME for rectification before
accepting the aircraft for the flight.
CORRECT ADJUSTMENT OF SITTING POSITION.
It is important to have a correct sitting posture and seat should be adjusted so that the red ball is fully in-
line and hidden behind the white ball. Also the arm rest should provide proper support to the forearm. The
rudder pedals should provide comfortable sitting and normally adjusted to the shoe size of the pilot.
COCKPIT PREPARATION
Given below is the Panel Scan Sequence as per the FCOM and FCTM.
Airbus follows the NO WHITE LIGHTS concept. Blue lights like GND CTL are informatory in nature. The
only light that should remain ON will be the FAULT light on GEN 1 + 2 which will extinguish once
engines are started and GEN's come online.
All ECAM pages must then be checked to ensure that all systems are normal. Particular attention must
be given to Oil quantities and Hydraulic levels and Fuel on board. Also check for STS messages.
UPDATE 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
TAKE-OFF BRIEFING
Once the cockpit is set and before the trim sheet is presented, a comprehensive take-off briefing must
be carried out by the PF (Pilot Flying).
The Take Off briefing is the most important communication between the two crew members at the
beginning of the flight and sets the tone for the days work. It needs to elaborate all aspects of the flight
so that both crew members are in sync, leaving no room for ambiguity. It must cover flight specific issues,
relavent NOTAMS, Weather,MEL,OEB's and tasksharing including automation usage.

Take-Off briefing contd……..

As per AI A320 Ops Circular 727
This will be a Left/Right Hand seat T/O. Any Failure occurs before V1, I/You (CM1) will call STOP or GO.
( A lack of response to a malfunction could be considered a subtle incapacitation)
If the call is STOP, I/ you (CM1) will apply max reverser and bring the aircraft to a halt n the runway bearing
in mind the wind direction if there is a fire and when possible I/You (CM2) will monitor the deceleration
(auto brakes, reversers and ensure ground spoiler deployment) and inform ATC. When the aircraft comes
to a halt and parking brake set, I/You (CM2) will carry out the necessary ECAM action, in case not displayed
on ECAM, use On Ground Emergency / Evacuation or QRH paper checklist on my/your (CM 1).
In case any failure occurs after V1:
I/You will continue takeoff. No action will be taken below 400 ft. except gear up and application of TOGA
will be considered. At 400ft I/You (CM 2), will carry out ECAM actions on my/your (CM1) command
up to 2nd agent discharge in case of an ENG Fire.
If Eng is secured level off at 1500ft to accelerate and clean up.
If Eng is not secured we will level off at EO Max ACCL ALT of 1500ft (As per AI Company Policy) and will
accelerate and clean up only when Engine is secured.
Review Evacuation procedure from QRHB.
Read and review individual actions
Review ESOID if applicable.
End of Briefing.
TRIM/LOADSHEET DATA
Once the trim sheet is presented, the ZFW/ZFWCG and FOB should be entered in the INIT B page. The
Take-Off weight should be cross checked with the trim sheet figures and STAB setting as per T/O CG should
be entered on PERF T/O page. The PM will then calculate the V speeds for the given weight and after
cross check by the PF will insert them in the T/O PERF page. Shift in case of intersection T/O must also
entered to avoid any bias at the time of T/O update, and for navigation accuracy.
The Secondary Perf page should also be completed as per requirement or should be a copy of the active.
BEFORE START CLEARANCE

Once all documents are in order and all data is inserted its time to carry out the Before Start Checklist
LIST TO THE LINE . Once all doors are cleared and all GND equipment has moved away from the aircraft
the PF will announce ARMING OF DOORS which should be confirmed on the DOOR Pg.
PUSHBACK AND START UP CLEARANCE.
Once Pushback/Startup clearance is received, complete the Before Start Checklist below the line.
Before Push back ensure that the NOSE WHEEL DISC memo is available confirming that the tow pin is in
towing position. In case not displayed DO NOT START ENGINES during pushback to avoid any possible
damage to the nose landing gear upon Green System pressurization.
NORMAL ENGINE START
Automatic Engine Start is normally carried out. Refer to Procedure in FCOM.
Ensure that GND CREW clearance is taken before startup.
Once engines are started ensure GND PWR/PNUEMATIC are all disconnected.
UPDATE 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
AFTER START SCAN

After Engines are started PF will select the ENG MODE selector to normal. PM will complete the After Start
Flow now. After confirming that everything is normal, PF will advise GND CREW to disconnect.
Once the flow is completed carry out the AFTER START CHECKLIST.
FLIGHT CONTROL CHECKS

As per FCTM (NO-040 P7/10), Flight Control Checks can be carried out at a convenient stage, before
or during taxi. The PF silently applies pressure on the joy stick while the PM checks and calls out full
deflection of Elevators and Aileron. The PF should check that the callouts are as per the side stick input
given by him. For Rudder check the PM will follow the PF while he applies rudder input and calls out the
deflection as observed.
TAXI
On receipt of Taxi clearance PF will taxi out and first check effectiveness of Brakes by applying brake
pressure. Thereafter when clear of active area, PM will carry out the Weather Radar check, ARM the
AUTO BRAKE, T/O Config Check, Check T/O Memo and get Cabin Secured report from the Cabin Crew.
The ATC Transponder is normally set to XPDR mode before pushback as per Ground radar requirement.
Pilots should bear in mind HOTSPOTS around the airfield.

TAXI FLOW
2. ATC
Depends on airfield ground
radar requirements
A Take-Off briefing confirmation is carried out at this stage specially highlighting any changes from
the earlier T/O briefing.
BEFORE TAKE-OFF CHECKLIST

The Before Take Off Checklist down to the line is now completed.
TAKE-OFF CLEARANCE
Once Take-Off clearance is received, the Before Take Off checklist is completed below the line before
entering the active runway for departure.
TAKE-OFF NORMAL PROCEDURE

Take-Off is a critical phase of the flight and the mental awareness required is very high. It requires that
both pilots are at a very high level of concentration and situational awareness of all aspects such as Runway
being used - TORA, TODA, ASDA; Weather conditions at and around the departure aerodrome;
any specific aircraft MEL requirements which might affect the take-off. Though a pilot is normally
"GO MINDED", he/she must be ready to reject the take-off should a failure/event occur which would affect
the safety of the flight.
Given below is the Normal Take-Off Procedure, but it's important to refer to FCOM/FCTM for complete
information and finer aspects of the same.
UPDATE 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
BEFORE OPENING TAKE-OFF THRUST

Once take-off clearance is received and the 'Before Take-Off' Checklist is complete, the pilot must scan
the runway and take-off path to ensure the runway is clear. Birds are a common feature around runways
and can prove dangerous. Weather condition on the take-off path should also be checked and any of these
affecting the take-off should be brought to the notice of the ATC. Also wake from a previous landing aircraft
should be taken into account and a pilot should not get rushed into the take-off by the ATC.
1. ANNOUNCE TAKE-OFF
The PF before advancing the thrust levers must announce the takeoff. "TAKEOFF"
The PF will then move the thrust levers to achieve 1.05EPR/50%N1.
2. STABILIZED CALL
The PM must check that the engines have stabilized by checking the EPR(1.05 on V2500) and (50% N1) on
CFM engines before giving the stabilized call. This is as per AI A320 OPS CIR (M) 702 dated 15.03.2012
3. TAKE-OFF THRUST SETTING
In case X-Wind is at or below 20kts and No Tailwind
Once engine parameters have stabilized (1.05 EPR/50% N1), move the levers gradually to the FLX/TOGA
detent.
In case X-Wind is above 20kts OR Tailwind is above 20Kt
a) From IDLE to 1.05 EPR/50% N1
b) Once Stabilized for V2500 engines - From 1.05 EPR to 1.15 EPR; then to FLX/TOGA detent so as to
reach Take-Off Thrust by 40kts groundspeed. For CFM engines, once stabilized at 50% N1, to 70% N1 and
then to FLX/TOGA detent so as to reach Take-Off Thrust by 40kts groundspeed.
4. Once Take-Off Thrust is set
a) The PF will check and read out the FMA: "Flex 54, SRS, RWY, ATHR BLUE"
FLX 54 SRS RWY ALL FMA CALLS ARE MANDATORY
ATHR BY THE PF.
Captain must now place his hands on the Thrust Levers in case of assisted takeoff.
b) The PM must check time on the Chrono
c) The PM must check and announce 'THRUST SET' after ensuring that the required Thrust is available
and must ensure all parameters are normal below 80kts.
d) The PF should give slight forward input on the side stick to counter the upward movement on
application of Take off Thrust and on reaching 80kt must slowly neutralize the sidestick by 100kts.
e) Maintain directional control with the rudder. Ailerons MUST NOT BE USED to counter the effect of
any X-Wind.
5. 100 kts Callout
The PM calls out "100 KTS" and the PF will cross check and confirms the speed indication on the PFD
Note: The aircraft is now entering the high speed segment of the take-off. A reject above this speed is a
serious matter and must be done only if the PF feels that continuing the takeoff will affect the safety of
the aircraft.
6. V1 Announce
The PM will announce V1, 5kts before the calculated V1 speed. The PF will remove his hands from the
thrust levers. The takeoff must now be completed.
7. VR Announce
On reaching calculated VR speed, the PM will call 'ROTATE' the PF will pull back on the side stick and rotate
smoothly to 15° on the PFD. No rudder input should be applied henceforth. Follow SRS guidance.
UPDATE 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320 / A321
8. +ve Climb
Once the aircraft is airborne the PM must announce "+ve Climb" and the PF will order "GEAR UP"
The PM will select the LDG Lever UP and announce "GEAR UP" once the gear is retracted.
9. Thrust Reduction Altitude
On reaching Thrust Reduction Altitude, The PF will bring the Thrust Lever to CLB detent and read the FMA
confirming that the ATHR is now active. Also it's time to restore the PACKS as per procedure.
CLB SRS NAV
ATHR
10. Acceleration Altitude
On reaching ACCL ALT clean up the aircraft as per the speed schedule.
F +ve select Flap 1 & S +ve select Flap 0. Once the flaps are retracted, the PM will select the RWY turnoff
lights and Taxi/Takeoff lights OFF.
11. Transition Altitude
Both pilots will select STD setting on their respective sides and PM will select on STBY Altimeter also.
PF will ask for the After Take Off/Climb C/L. PM will also x-check & call out the FL passing.
In case the transition altitude is at a higher level (eg. Gulf countries), the After Take Off/ Climb C/L
can be done first to the line and on reaching transition altitude completed below the line.
12. 10000ft Checks
Passing 10000ft, LDG lights may be switched off and seat belt at the discretion of the PF.
Ensure before removing headsets that the speaker volume is turned upp.

DESCENT PREPARATIONS
1. FMGS Preparation
Well before TOD, it is necessary to complete all the preparations for commencing the approach to
land at the destination. The first step in this regard is to prepare the FMGS after receiving the
weather and runway in use at the destination. The data that requires to be fed in is:
F FLT PLAN Page: The type of approach is to be defined ensuring that all the speed
and altitude constraints are in place.
R RAD NAV Pg: Both VOR's to be tuned as required for the initial approach as required
ILS frequency for the RWY in use is defaulted after entering the arrival on the FLT PLAN
page. If LOM height is to be x-checked on the final approach, the frequency shoud be
entered.
P PERF Page: The airfield information received from ATIS should be entered, along with
MDA. Vapp, and Landing Flap should be x-checked and modified if required.
P PROG Pg: VOR, RWY in use as required to be entered.
S SEC FLT PLAN Page: May be a copy of the active or possible alternate runway to be
arrival should be defined in case of multiple runway operation.
Fuel Pred page should be revied for Alternate airfield fuel reqquirements and extra fuel
calculations in case of delay in arrival at the destination.
2. Approach Briefing. (Refer to FCTM NO-080 P4/6)

A comprehensive briefing of the STAR, APP, Lost Communication, Airfield data, Alternate should be
done before reaching the TOD point. (Refer to Chart briefing). The briefing should cover, Destination & Alternate
airfield weather, NOTAMS, Fuel requirements and additional fuel available; expected taxi after landing.

Abnormal Engine Starts contd….
ENGINE TAILPIPE FIRE :

A tailpipe fire may occur at engine start or shutdown due to excess fuel in the combustion chambre or an
oil leak in the LP Turbine. The excess fuel results from an over fuel command by the FADEC or from a
rotating stall or a malfunctioning ignition system. This excess fuel ignites in the combustion chamber
with the engine rotating too slowly leading to an INTERNAL FIRE WITHIN THE ENGINE CORE or some fuel
burn in the AFT LP TURBINE RACE. This fire is contained within the engine and has minimum risk to
develop in an engine fire.
DO NOT PRESS THE FIRE Pb AND DISCHARGE THE AGENT

After Landing:
V 2500 Engines: After operation above REV IDLE thrust, or after operation at power above normal taxi
maneuvering power, run the engine at idle or near idle for a 3 min cooling period, to avoid rotor case
interactions that cause performance degradations of the engine, and possible HPC blade damage.
CFM 56 Engines: After landing, operate the engines at idle for 3 min before shutdown in order to
thermally stabilize the hot section.

Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320/A321
ENGINE MALFUNCTIONS.
The different types of Engine Malfunctions. It is important to understand the malfunction
so that we can effectively handle the emergency at hand. The different types of engine malfunctions
can be broadly identified as follows:
1. Engine Stall
2. Engine Flameout
3. High Engine Vibrations
4. EGT Exceedance
4. Low Oil Pressure / Low Oil Level
5. Reverser Unlocked
6. Engine Fire
ENGINE STALL: An engine stall is a compressor surge. Since air compression in turbo jet engines is
achieved aerodynamically as air passed through different stages of the compressor. When this air flow
over a compressor blade stalls, it disturbs the airflow and the compressor cannot compress this air.
As a result the high pressure condition behind the stalled area may create a reverse flow towards the
compressor inlet resulting in an immediate loss of thrust. An engine stall may be a result of:
a) A deteriorated engine resulting from compressor blade rupture, or high wear;
b) FOD ingestion or bird strikes and even ice
c) A Bleed system malfunction
d) Malfunctioning engine controls, fuel scheduling or surge control devices.
An engine stall during takeoff or high power settings is charecterised by:
> One or more loud bangs
> Instant loss of thrust resulting in sudden yaw
> Engine parameter fluctuations and EGT increase
> Visible flames from inlet and/or the tailpipe.
An engine stall during takeoff or low power settings is charecterised by:
> One or more muffled bangs
> Engine Vibrations
> Engine parameter fluctuations and EGT increase.
EGT can rise because the airflow downstream of the combustion chamber is not sufficient to cool
the turbine.
An engine stall may be recoverable with or without any crew action or mat be non recoverable.
Depending on the situation it may or may not be required to shut down the engine in flight. If
after retarding the affected engine thrust lever the stall ceases, the engine may be operated on idle
thrust. Engine & Wing Anti Ice will help in increasing the stall margin but EGT will increase. If after a
reduction in thrust, engine parameters are normal, thrust levers may be advanced slowly forward
as long as the stall does not reoccur. In case of a non recoverable stall, if stall conditions still
persist after a thrust is brought to idle, an engine shutdown is to be carried out.
Update 2015
Airbus A320 Family
A319 / A320/A321
ENGINE FLAMEOUT: A engine will flameout when the combustion process stops. This may be due to:
> Fuel starvation
> Volcanic Ash, Heavy rain/Hail/Icing
> Engine Stall
> Control System Malfunction.
When flying through heavy rain or hail at low engine thrust and at high speed, increase the risk of
engine flameout. The FADEC selects automatic continuous ignition when an engine flameout condition
is detected
HIGH ENGINE VIBRATIONS: High Engine Vibrations may be caused by:

> Engine Imbalance
> Bird strike or FOD ingestion resulting in blade damage
> Compressor blade loss
>Icing Conditions
Whenever vibration level increase beyond a threshold, an advisory is generated, highlighting the
affected engine. After cross checking the other engine parameters, thrust should be reduced below
the advisory level. Refer to Air India Ops Mandatory Circular for actions in case of High ENG VIB.
EGT EXCEEDANCE: EGT exceedance does necessarily indicate an engine malfunction. As the engine
ages, normal engine wear results in in higher fuel burn which leads to higher EGT. Also due to inertia
of the engine, the EGT reaches a peak at the time of or close to rotation during takeoff. High OAT also
has an effect on EGT. However a sudden rise of EGT when takeoff thrust is set may indicate a
malfunctioning engine.
LOW OIL LEVEL/LOW OIL PRESSURE: Low Oil Level alone is not a symptom of engine failure. However
Low Oil Pressure is the sign of an imminent engine failure.
REVERSER UNLOKCED: Thus can be a dangerous situation which can lead to loss of control of the
aircraft. When a reverser comes out of its fully stowed position, the FADEC automatically reduces the
affected engine thrust to idle. However the crew must also bring back the thrust levers to idle and
reduce speed. The engine must be kept at idle even in the absence of any buffet, but in case buffet is
felt, then the reverser is partially deployed and pressurised and it is imperative to shut down the
affected engine. Also refer to Reverser Unlock Procedure Notes discussed later.
ENGINE FIRE: An engine fire can occur at any time. It is mostly due to inflammable liquid coming into
contact with very hot engine parts like the compressor, turbine or combustion chamber casings. This
is caused by leaks, pipe ruptures, damaged gear box assemblies. Flammable liquids include fuel, oil
and hydraulic fluids. When the fire warning triggers, Engine Fire ECAM action must be carried out.
Do not confuse Engine Fire with Engine Tail Pipe Fire explained earlier.

REJECT TAKE-OFF
Rejecting a takeoff is a serious and tricky affair. It is purely the Captains decision and therefore he MUST
keep his hand on the Thrust Levers until the aircraft reaches V1. Even if he is the PNF, his hand should be
on the T/L's once T/O thrust is set. Above 100kts specifically for Short Fields, a RTO can be hazardous and
it is recommended that it is better to be 'GO MINDED' and very few situations should lead to decision to
reject a take-off.
Exceptional cases such as Fire Warning, Severe Damage, Red ECAM warnings, Engine Fail, Rev Unlock
or malfunctions which suggest that the A/C will not fly safely should be considered above 100kts and
below V1 to reject a T/O.

BRIEFED BY PF. PM SHOULD MONITOR AND CALL OUT IN CASE LIMIT IS EXCEEDED.
WHY DO WE DISCONNECT ATHR IN CASE OF GREEN + BLUE DUAL HYD FAILURE.

Use of ATHR is not recommended in case of G+B Dual Hydraulic failure due to the loss of Left
Elevator along with Both L+R Ailerons and 3 Spoilers. The aircraft controllability will be extremely
sluggish. As a result of this if ATHR is engaged, frequent changes of thrust will take place
making controllability even more difficult. Hence it is recommended to disconnect the ATHR.
Further more by taking the LDG GR down and reverting to DIRECT LAW, controllability becomes
easier.
WHY DO WE NEED TO TAKE GEAR DOWN ONLY ONCE ESTB ON ILS & AT VAPP IN GREEN + YELLOW
Since in alternate law, the stabilizer is lost in this case, the auto trim function is provided through the
elevators. When the Ldg Gr is selected down and aircraft reverts to direct law, the auto trim function is
lost. As shown in the diagram below, the mean elevator position s memorized, and becomes the mean
reference for the centered side stick position. Hence only once the aircraft is stabized on G/S and Vapp
the gear should be extended. This will make flare and pitch control easier for approach & go-around.

SMOKE DETECTION AND REMOVAL
Fire and Smoke are very tricky and difficult situation to deal with specially in the air.
A natural sense of panic sets in especially with passengers, so it I imperative that
the crew deal with the situation in a calm and organised manner to control the source
of combustion. An immediate diversion as soon as the smoke is detected. If source is
not easily detectable and extinguishable, there should be no delay in initiating a
diversion.
Different source of Smoke and the challenges they post can be widely looked at
as follows.
EASY TO IDENTIFY DIFFICULT TO IDENTIFY
LAVOTORY SMOKE AIRCONDITION SMOKE

CARGO SMOKE AVIONICS SMOKE
Smoke is normally identified either by a ECAM warning or by the crew without any ECAM warning.
1. If smoke is detected by crew without any ECAM, crew should immediately refer to the
QRH SMOKE/FUMES/AVNCS SMOKE PAPER PROCEDURE.
2. If AVIONIC SMOKE ECAM warning is triggered:

AVIONICS SMOKE
if perceptible smoke
OXY MASKS _______________ON
CKPT CABIN COM _____ESTABLISH
a) Apply the procedure only if there is perceptible smoke.

One must rely on their sense of smell. A smell similar to that of orange peels, one can suspect
a toxic leak, whereas that of pine needles, one can suspect a non toxic leak.
b) If smoke is not perceptible, one should consider it as a spurious warning and discontinue
the procedure.
NOTE: Once the IMMEDIATE ACTIONS are done, the ECAM will display a 5 min countdown. At this
time the flight crew will shift to the paper procedure and continue without returning to the
ECAM.
THIS IS A SLIGHTLY COMPLICATED PROCEDURE AND ONE MUST FOLLOW THE CORRECT
SEQUENCE OF ACTIONS. HENCE A CLARITY OF THE SAME IS VERY VITAL.
Once there is perceptible smoke the use of OXY MASKS/GOGGLES is important.

ensure that they are continuously briefed about the severity of the situation.
The following sequence is to be followed from the QRHB
Update 2015

A319 / A320 A321
NOTE: Smoke will initially come out of the ventilation outlets, resulting in suspecting AIRCOND SMOKE
Thereafter several smoke warnings will trigger and be displayed on the ECAM;
CABIN, LAVATORY, AVIONICS.
AVIONIC and CABIN smoke may be smelt in cockpit/cabin even before ECAM warning.
1 IMMEDIATE ACTIONS IN ALL CASES.

1. Crew must protect themselves;
2. They must avoid further contamination;
3. Establish Cockpit - Cabin communications;
2 IDENTIFY SOURCE OF SMOKE

1. AIRCOND SMOKE: If smoke first comes out of the ventilation outlets, or it is detected in the
cabin. In addition, several smoke warnings, CARGO, LAV, AVIONICS, will be triggered. Apply
ECAM warning procedures first.
2. ENGINE or APU SMOKE: This will be circulated through the bleed system. This smoke is
circulated through the entire aircraft before it disappears.
3. AVIONICS SMOKE: In case this ECAM warning is triggered, crew may suspect the same and
take appropriate action.
4. FAULTY EQUIPMENT: In case some equipment is declared faulty, crew may suspect smoke
is originating from such an equipment.
3 APPROPRIATE ACTION
Depending on the suspected source of the smoke, crew must enter that portion of the QRHB
checklist and perform the required actions.
AIR COND SMOKE SUSPECTED

SMOKE SUSPECTED FROM CABIN EQUIPMENT
EMERGENCY ELECTRICAL CONFIG

Electrical fire is MOST CRITICAL. If the crew are not able to identify the source of the smoke or if the above
procedures are unsuccessful, it is important to shed as much equipment as possible in order to isolate
the source of the smoke. In case of AVIONIC SMOKE also this procedure needs to be applied. This
procedure is different from the actual EMER ELEC CONFIG, as generators will be restored before landing.

LANDING IN DIRECT LAW
RA 1+ 2 Fault
WHEN L/G DN: DIRECT LAW

Since status indicates that the A/C will revert to
Direct law once LDG GR is selected down, It is
therefore important to review this procedure
for LANDING IN DIRECT LAW, before commencing
approach from FCOM VOL PRO-ABN-27 P35 &36/68,
since this procedure does not appear on STATUS Page
Page until the gear is selected down.
Important Points to be kept in Mind when Landing in Direct Law:

1. Landing will be done in Config 3.
2. MCDU PERF Pg to be set up accordingly. Vref = Vls Cofig Full + 10kts; Then select Config 3
3. Select GPWS LDG FLAP 3 Pb.
4. In Direct Law, Auto Trim will not be available. So select the gear down only after selecting
Config 3, and after the A/C has reached Vapp and is in trimmed condition after commencing
descent from the FAF.
Note: In case you are shooting an ILS Approach with a RA 1+2 Fault, you will not be able
to ARM the Approach. Only LOC Pb is available. The Glideslope will have to be intercepted
manually.

IN CASE STALL WARNING SOUNDS AT LIFT-OFF:
1. TOGA SELECT
2. PITCH TO 15°
3. WINGS LEVEL
Note that spurious warning may sound in Normal Law due to damaged AOA probe. When safe
flight path and speed are achieved and if stall warning continues consider it as spurious.
The immediate key action is to reduce AOA; This reduction will enable the wing to regain LIFT.
Simultaneously the flight crew must ensure that the wings are level in order to reduce the
lift necessary for the flight, and as a consequence of, the required AOA. As a general rule,
minimizing the loss of altitude is secondary to the reduction of AOA as the first priority is to
regain LIFT. As the AOA reduces below the AOA stall, LIFT & DRAG will return to their normal
values.
The secondary action is to increase energy; When stall indications have stopped,
increase thrust smoothly as needed and must ensure that SPEED BRAKES are retracted.
Immediate thrust application upon stall recognition is NOT APPROPRIATE. Due to
the engine spool up time, the aircraft speed increases which results from increased
thrust is slow, and does not enable the aircraft to reduce AOA instantaneously.
Furthermore, for under wing mounted engines, the thrust increase generates a pitch up
tendancy that may prevent the required reduction in AOA.

EVACUATION
Irrespective of Pilot Flying in case there is a need to Evacuate,
ALL ACTIONS WILL BE SEAT ORIENTED
There are 2 Types of Evacuation:

1. Planned Evacuation Refer to A320 Mandatory Circular 711
2. Unplanned Evacuation Planned and Unplanned Evacuation!
PLANNED EVACUATION:
In situations where an emergency occurs in flight which may require an evacuation of passengers after
landing, such as Abnormal Landing Gear, the CCIC(Cabin Crew In Charge) can be briefed and Passengers
prepared to ensure that they can be safely evacuated on landing.
In the event of an emergency inflight, the following procedure should be followed:
1. CCIC should be called into the cockpit and briefed about

a) Type of Emergency,
b) Time to Land
c) Type of Actions
d) Exits NOT TO BE USED
The Capt should make a brief PA to pax before CCIC is ready for PA regarding emergency announcement.
“Ladies and Gentleman,
Attention please. This is your captain here. We will be making an Emergency
Landing in about ___ minutes. It may be a necessary to evacuate the aircraft
after landing. This can be done successfully. Follow the instructions of your
crew at all times. The cabin crew will now instruct you on the procedures to
follow. Your cooperation is essential.
Thank you.”
If Cabin is not secured Capt should announce on PA:

FINISH PREPARATION
Once Cabin Secured or 1 min to touchdown Capt to announce on PA:
BRACE FOR IMPACT
Once aircraft has stopped and Evacuation is required:
Captain on PA to announce:
PASSENGER EVACUATE, then press EVAC COMMAND & cancel Horn
