SCOPE
1-1-0 Introduction
1. General
The A320 AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS – AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE PLANNING (AC)
manual is issued for the A320-200 series aircraft that have the wing-tip fences or sharklets, to
give necessary data to the airport operators, airlines and Maintenance/Repair Organizations
(MRO) for airport and maintenance facilities planning.
The A320 Family is the world’s best-selling single-aisle aircraft. An A320 takes off or lands in the
world each 1.5 seconds for each day, the family recorded more than 117 million cycles since the
entry-into-service and records the best-in-class dispatch reliability of 99.7%.
To make sure this true market leadership, Airbus continues to invest in improvements in the
A320 Family: enhancements to the aerodynamics for example the sharklet wingtip devices,
upgrades to the widest passenger cabin in its class, the A320 Family neo. The latter mixes top-
of-class engine efficiency offered with two new engine options: the PW1100G PurePower from
Pratt&Whitney and the LEAP-1A from CFM International offered the new sharklet devices with
superior aerodynamics.
The A320neo family offers a minimum of 15% fuel savings and an additional flight range of
about 500 nm (926 km) and up to 20% fuel savings got through the cabin innovations and
efficiency improvements. For the environment, the A320neo family is also more eco-friendly,
with 5 000 t (11 023 113 lb) less CO2 emissions each year for each aircraft and almost 50%
reduction in noise footprint compared to before generation aircraft.
When you fly the ACJ family member, we pride ourselves on four key intertwined DNA strands
that are behind everything. We give the ultimate comfort, intercontinental freedom, pioneering
technology and reliability. An ACJ is not only a plane but a home where you can experience
space like no other jet, crafted ambience and artisanal quality materials you can connect with.
We have selected the space and technology to let you do fine dining, pampering, movie night,
working from the sky to make strategic business decisions or simply relaxing with your loved
ones and guests, uncompromisingly.

AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS - AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE PLANNING
1. General
The main landing gears are located under the wing and retract sideways towards the fuselage
centerline.
The nose landing gear retracts forward into a fuselage compartment located between FR9 and
FR20.
The landing gears and landing gear doors are operated and controlled electrically and
hydraulically.
In abnormal operation, the landing gear can be extended by gravity.
A. Twin-Wheel
Each of the two main landing gear assemblies consists of a conventional two-wheel direct
type with an integral shock absorber supported in the fore and aft directions by a fixed drag
strut and laterally by a folding strut mechanically locked when in the DOWN position.
The nose landing gear consists of a leg with a built-in shock absorber strut, carrying twin wheels
with adequate shimmy damping and a folding strut mechanically locked when in the DOWN
position.

@A320
AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS - AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE PLANNING
Steering is controlled by two hand wheels in the cockpit. For steering angle controlled by the
hand wheels, refer to AMM 32-51-00.
For steering angle limitation, refer to AMM 09-10-00.
A steering disconnection box is installed on the nose landing gear to allow steering deactivation
for towing purposes.
A. General
Filling of the landing-gear shock absorbers is done through MIL-PRF-6164 standard valves.
Charging of the landing-gear shock absorbers is accomplished with nitrogen through MIL-
PRF-6164 standard valves.
B. Charging Pressure
6. Braking
A. General
The four main wheels are equipped with carbon multidisc brakes.
The braking system has four braking modes plus autobrake and anti-skid systems:
- Normal braking with anti-skid capability,
- Alternative braking with anti-skid capability,
- Alternative braking without anti-skid capability,
- Parking brake with full pressure application capability only.
B. In-Flight Wheel Braking
The main gear wheels are braked automatically before the wheels enter the wheel bay.
The nose gear wheels are stopped by the wheels contacting a rubbing strip (the brake
band) when the gear is in the retracted position.

1. General
The APU is installed at the rear part of the fuselage in the tail cone. An air intake system with a
flap-type door is installed in front of the APU compartment. The exhaust gases pass overboard
at the end of the fuselage cone.
The primary APU controls and indications are installed on the overhead panel, on the center
pedestal and on the center instrument panel. Additionally, an external APU panel is installed on
the nose landing gear to initiate an APU emergency shutdown.

A. Engine
The aircraft has two CFM International CFM56 engines that supply power to the aircraft.
The engines are turbofan engines that have:
- A high bypass ratio,
- A Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC),
- A fuel system,
- An oil system,
- An air system,
- A thrust reverser system,
- An ignition system and a start system.
The engine has:
Two compressor turbine assemblies:
- The Low Pressure (LP) compressor turbine assembly,
- The High Pressure (HP) compressor turbine assembly.
Each turbine operates its associated compressor via a shaft.
- One accessory gearbox,
- One combustion chamber.
The engine operates as follows:
(1) The LP compressor, compresses the air.
(2) Then, the air is divided into two flows:
- Most of the air flows out of the core engine, and provides most of the engine
thrust.
- The remaining air enters the core engine.
(3) The HP compressor compresses the air that enters the core engine.
(4) The fuel is added to and mixed with the compressed air of the core engine. The
mixture is ignited in the combustion chamber.
(5) The gas that results from combustion drives the HP and the LP turbines.
- The rotation speed of the fan provides the N1 engine parameter.
- The rotation speed of the HP rotor provides the N2 engine parameter.
- The N1 and N2 engine parameters appear on the Engine/Warning Display (E/
WD).
- The N1 and N2 engine parameters are current rotation speeds displayed in
percentage.
The FADEC uses:

1. Quick Leveling
There are three alternative procedures to level the aircraft:
- Quick leveling procedure with Air Data/Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU).
- Quick leveling procedure with a spirit level in the passenger compartment.
- Quick leveling procedure with a spirit level in the FWD cargo compartment.
2. Precise Leveling
For precise leveling, it is necessary to install sighting rods in the receptacles located under the
fuselage (points 11 and 12 for longitudinal leveling) and under the wings (points 2LH and 2RH
for lateral leveling) and use a sighting tube. With the aircraft on jacks, adjust the jacks until the
reference marks on the sighting rods are aligned in the sighting plane (aircraft level).

2-14-0 Jacking
A. General
(1) The A320 can be jacked:
- At not more than 59 000 kg (130 073 lb),
- Within the limits of the permissible wind speed when the aircraft is not in a closed
environment.
B. Primary Jacking Points
(1) The aircraft is provided with three primary jacking points:
- One located under the forward fuselage (FR8),
- Two located under the wings (one under each wing, located at the intersection of
RIB9 and the datum of the rear spar).
(2) Three jack adapters are used as intermediary parts between the aircraft and the jacks:
- One male spherical jack adapter of 19 mm (0.75 in) radius, forming part of the
aircraft structure (FR8),
- Two wing jack pads (one attached to each wing at RIB9 with 2 bolts) for the
location of the jack adaptor.
Wing jack pads are ground equipment.
C. Auxiliary Jacking Points (Safety Stay)
(1) When the aircraft is on jacks, it is recommended that a safety stay be placed under
the fuselage, between FR73 and FR74, to prevent tail tipping caused by accidental
displacement of the center of gravity.
(2) The safety stay must not be used to lift the aircraft.
(3) A male spherical ball pad with a 19 mm (0.75 in) radius, forming part of the aircraft
structure, is provided for using the safety stay.
A. Jack Design
(1) The maximum permitted loads given in the table in FIGURE 2-14-0-991-030-A are the
maximum loads applicable on jack fittings.
Page 1
2-14-0 Dec 01/23
@A320
AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS - AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE PLANNING
(2) In the fully retracted position (jack stroke at minimum), the height of the jack is such
that the jack may be placed beneath the aircraft in the most adverse conditions,
namely, tires deflated and shock absorbers depressurized. In addition, there must be a
clearance of approximately 50 mm (1.97 in) between the aircraft jacking point and the
jack upper end.
(3) The lifting jack stroke enables the aircraft to be jacked up so that the fuselage
longitudinal datum line (aircraft center line) is parallel to the ground, with a clearance
of 100 mm (3.94 in) between the main landing gear wheels and the ground. This
enables the landing gear extension/retraction tests to be performed.
3. Shoring Cradles
When it is necessary to support the aircraft in order to relieve the loads on the structure to do
modifications or major work, shoring cradles shall be placed under each wing and the fuselage
as necessary.
NOTE : The aircraft must not be lifted or supported by the wings or fuselage alone without
adequate support of the other.

1. General
Landing gear jacking will be required to lift the landing gear wheels off the ground.
NOTE : You can lift the aircraft at Maximum Ramp Weight (MRW).
NOTE : The load at each jacking position is the load required to give a 25.4 mm (1 in)
clearance between the ground and the tire.
The main gears are normally jacked up by placing a jack directly under the ball pad.
The reactions at each of the jacking points are shown in the table, see FIGURE 2-14-0-991-060-
A.

The fore and aft pairs of MLG wheels can be jacked by placing a jack directly under the ball
pads located at each end of the bogie beam.
The leading dimensions and environmental distances of these jacking points are shown on
FIGURE 2-14-0-991-048-A, FIGURE 2-14-0-991-049-A and FIGURE 2-14-0-991-050-A.
The reactions at each of the jacking points are shown in the table, see FIGURE 2-14-0-991-060-
A.
For nose gear jacking, a 19 mm (0.75 in) radius ball pad is fitted under the lower end of the
shock-absorber sliding tube. Jacking can be accomplished either by placing a jack directly under
the ball pad, or using an adapter fitting provided with an identical ball pad.

1. This section provides the final approach speed. It is defined as the indicated airspeed at
threshold in the landing configuration, at the certificated maximum flap setting and Maximum
Landing Weight (MLW), in standard atmospheric conditions. The approach speed is used to
classify the aircraft into an Aircraft Approach Category, a grouping of aircraft based on the
indicated airspeed at threshold.

GROUND MANEUVERING
For ease of presentation, this data has been determined from the theoretical limits imposed by
the geometry of the aircraft, and where noted, provides for a normal allowance for tire slippage.
As such, it reflects the turning capability of the aircraft in favorable operating circumstances. This
data should only be used as a guideline for the method of determination of such parameters and
for the maneuvering characteristics of this aircraft type.
In ground operating mode, varying airline practices may demand that more conservative turning
procedures be adopted to avoid excessive tire wear and reduce possible maintenance problems.
Airline operating techniques will vary in the level of performance, over a wide range of operating
circumstances throughout the world. Variations from standard aircraft operating patterns may
be necessary to satisfy physical constraints within the maneuvering area, such as adverse
grades, limited area or a high risk of jet blast damage. For these reasons, ground maneuvering
requirements should be coordinated with the airlines in question prior to layout planning.

- Refuel/defuel operations,
- Maintenance operations,
- Bad weather conditions.
NOTE : In all other conditions, the electrostatic discharge through the tire is sufficient.
If the aircraft is on jacks for retraction and extension checks or for the removal/
installation of the landing gear, the grounding (earthing) alternative points (if
installed) are:
- In the hole on the avionics-compartment lateral right door-frame (on FR14),
- On the engine nacelles,
- Adjacent to the high-pressure connector,
- On the wing upper surfaces.

1. General
This section describes the required performance for the ground equipment to maintain the cabin
temperature at 27 °C (80.6 °F) for the cooling or 21 °C (69.8 °F) for heating cases after boarding
(Section 5.7 - steady state), and provides the time needed to cool down or heat up the aircraft
cabin to the required temperature (Section 5.6 - dynamic cases with aircraft empty).
ABBREVIATION DEFINITION

GC Ground Connection
GSE Ground Service Equipment
IFE In-Flight Entertainment
OAT Outside Air Temperature
PCA Pre-Conditioned Air
A. The air flow rates and temperature requirements for the GSE, provided in Sections 5.6 and
5.7, are given at A/C ground connection.
NOTE : The cooling capacity of the equipment (kW) is only indicative and is not sufficient
by itself to ensure the performance (outlet temperature and flow rate combinations
are the requirements needed for ground power). An example of cooling capacity
calculation is given in Section 5.7.
NOTE : The maximum air flow is driven by pressure limitation at the ground connection.
B. For temperatures at ground connection below 2 °C (35.6 °F) (Subfreezing), the ground
equipment shall be compliant with the Airbus document ”Subfreezing PCA Carts -
Compliance Document for Suppliers” (contact Airbus to obtain this document) defining all
the requirements with which Subfreezing Pre-Conditioning Air equipment must comply
to allow its use on Airbus aircraft. These requirements are in addition to the functional
specifications included in the IATA AHM997.

1. This section provides the preconditioned airflow rate and temperature needed to maintain the
cabin temperature at 27 °C (80.6 °F) for the cooling or 21 °C (69.8 °F) for the heating cases.
These settings are not intended to be used for operation (they are not a substitute for the
settings given in the AMM). They are based on theoretical simulations and give the picture of a
real steady state.
The purpose of the air conditioning (cooling) operation (described in the AMM) is to maintain the
cabin temperature below 27 °C (80.6 °F) during boarding (therefore it is not a steady state).

NOTE : The NLG steering deactivation pin has the same design for all Airbus programs.
This section shows the chart to determine the drawbar pull and tow tractor mass requirements
as a function of the following physical characteristics:
- Aircraft weight,
- Number of engines at idle,
- Slope.
The chart is based on the engine type with the highest idle thrust level.
A standard type towbar is required which should be equipped with a damping system (to protect
the nose gear against jerks) and with towing shear pins:
- A traction shear pin calibrated at 9 425 daN (21 188 lbf),
- A torsion pin calibrated at 826 m.daN (6 092 lbf.ft).

OPERATING CONDITIONS
The MTO data are presented at the maximum thrust rating. The Breakaway data are presented
at a rating that corresponds to the minimum thrust level necessary to start the movement of the
A/C from a static position at its maximum ramp weight. Breakaway thrust corresponds to 12%
MTO if applied on both engines and 24% MTO when applied on a single engine (Idle thrust on
the other engine).
The Idle data, provided by the engine manufacturer, are calculated for operational conditions
ISA +15K (+15°C), Sea Level, Static and no headwind. In the charts, the longitudinal distances
are measured from the inboard engine core-nozzle exit section. The lateral distances are
measured from the aircraft fuselage centerline.
The effects of on-wing installation are not taken into account. The effects of ground proximity
are not taken into account for PW 1100G engines, but they are taken into account for the CFM
LEAP-1A engines.
The velocity contours are presented at 50 ft/s (15 m/s), 100 ft/s (30 m/s) and 150 ft/s (46 m/s).

AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS - AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE PLANNING
The temperature contours are shown at 313K (+40°C), 323K (+50°C) and 333K (+60°C).
The velocity and temperature contours do not take into account possible variations affecting
performance, such as ambient temperature, field elevation or failure cases leading to an
abnormal bleed configuration. To evaluate the impact of these specific variables on the exhaust
contours, a specific study of the airport where the aircraft is intended to operate should be
carried out.

PAVEMENT DATA
1. A brief description of the pavement charts that follow will help in airport planning.
To aid in the interpolation between the discrete values shown, each aircraft configuration is
shown with a minimum range of five loads on the Main Landing Gear (MLG).
All curves on the charts represent data at a constant specified tire pressure with:
- The aircraft loaded to the Maximum Ramp Weight (MRW),
- The CG at its maximum permissible aft position.
Pavement requirements for commercial aircraft are derived from the static analysis of loads
imposed on the MLG struts.

The flexible pavement requirements curves as per U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Design
Method are not given in section 07-05-00 since the related data is available through free
software.
Sections 07-02-00 and 07-03-00 give all the inputs data required for the use of such software.
For questions that are related to the flexible pavement requirements, contact Airbus.

Computationally the ACR/PCR system relies on the Linear Elastic Analysis (LEA). The ACR are
computed with the official ICAO-ACR software.
States can start their own methods for PCR determination, which agree with the overall
parameters of the ACR/PCR method.
The results of their analysis should be reported with the following format:

1. The curves related to the landing gear loading on pavement are not given in section 07-04-00.
Because the relationship between the aircraft weight, the center of gravity and the landing gear
loading on the pavement is not strictly linear, it cannot be shown in chart format. But you can
find in section 07-03-00 the maximum vertical and horizontal pavement loads for some critical
conditions at the tire/ground interfaces for all the operational weight variants of the aircraft.

1. The flexible pavement requirements curves as per as U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Design
Method are not given in section 07-05-00 since the related data is available through free
software.
Sections 07-02-00 and 07-03-00 give all the inputs data required for the use of such software.
NOTE : The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Design Method for flexible pavements is being
gradually superseded by mechanistic-empirical design methods mostly relying on
Linear Elastic Analysis (LEA). The number of parameters considered by such methods
is not applicable for a chart format and the use of dedicated pavement-design software
is necessary.

1. This section gives data about the Aircraft Classification Number (ACN) for an aircraft gross
weight in relation with standard subgrade strength values for flexible and rigid pavement.
To find the ACN of an aircraft on flexible and rigid pavement, you must know the aircraft gross
weight and the subgrade strength.
NOTE : An aircraft with an ACN equal to or less than the reported PCN can operate on that
pavement, subject to any limitation on the tire pressure.

1. The ACR/PCR system has been developed by the ICAO to overcome the deficiencies of the
ACN/PCN system. Significant advances in pavement design methods had occurred since its
development in the late 1970s early 1980s, leading to inconsistencies with the pavement-
strength-rating system.
The ACR/PCR system entails new procedures for the determination of both the ACR and the
PCR that are consistent with the current pavement design procedures. This allows to capture
the effects of the improved characteristics of new pavement materials as well as modern landing
gear configurations, thus leading to an improved accuracy.
This section gives data about the Aircraft Classification Rating (ACR) for the maximum ramp
weight in relation with standard subgrade strength values for flexible and rigid pavement.
To determine the ACR at other aircraft gross weight, use the official ICAO-ACR software.
NOTE : An aircraft with an ACR equal to or less than the reported PCR can operate on that
pavement, subject to any limitation on the tire pressure. (Ref: ICAO Aerodrome Design
Manual, Part 3, Third Edition 2020).
