320 Automatic Flight

Front 1

On takeoff, what speed does SRS command with both engines operating?

Back 1

SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain airspeed at V2 + 10

Front 2

On takeoff, what speed does SRS command if an engine failure is detected?

Back 2

SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain the greater of V2 or current speed, limited to V2 + 15

Front 3

When does the airplane exit SRS mode?

Back 3

Automatically at the acceleration altitude or when another vertical mode is engaged

Front 4

With VS active, what would happen if you select a higher speed?

Back 4

Thrust will increase (up to CLB, if needed) until the selected speed is attained. Then the thrust will reduce to maintain selected speed.

Front 5

Based on the PFD shown, what thrust is being commanded?

Back 5

Thrust at idle since speed selected is below indicated in a descent

Front 6

During a normal takeoff, when will the A/THR become engaged?

Back 6

After the thrust lever is moved to CLB detent

Front 7

In a managed climb, what FMA changes will occur if you pull HDG?

Back 7

NAV mode will change to HDG; CLB mode will change to OP CLB

Front 8

In a managed descent, what FMA changes will occur if you pull HDG?

Back 8

NAV mode will change to HDG; DES mode will change to VS, THR mode will change to SPEED

Front 9

During an ILS Approach, at approximately what altitude will the LOC/GS indication change to LAND on the FMA? What does (green) LAND mean?

Back 9

-Below 400' RA

-LAND indicates that the LOC & GS modes are locked. No action on the FCU will disengage the LAND mode. FLARE & ROLLOUT modes will successively engage

Front 10

During an autoland, when do you expect the FMA FLARE indication to appear?

Back 10

40' RA

Front 11

During an autoland, with the FMA FLARE indication displayed, what actions are occuring within the autopilot and autothrust?

Back 11

-Autopilot aligns yaw axis with runway centerline and flares in pitch

-Autothrust reduces thrust to idle if engaged

Front 12

During an autoland, what does ROLL OUT indicate?

Back 12

The autopilot is guiding the aircraft along the runway centerline and the yaw bar is displayed on the PFD

Front 13

What are the 3 ways you can disconnect the autothrust?

Back 13

1. Press either autothrust instinctive disconnect button

2. Move both thrust levers to idle

3. Push A/THR pushbutton on the FCU

-Option 3 will cause thrust lock

Front 14

In level flight with the thrust levers in the CL detent, what will happen to the thrust if you press the instinctive disconnect pushbutton?

Back 14

Thrust will go to CL (matching actual current TL position)

Note: This is why we match the TL position to current thrust before pressing the disconnect pushbutton

Front 15

What does THR LK mean and how do you fix it?

Back 15

Means: Thrust is fixed at the current setting

To fix: Move the thrust levers

Front 16

What triggers A. FLOOR protection to engage?

Back 16

Triggered by a predetermined AOA.

A FLOOR means A/THR will command TOGA thrust regardless of TL position

Front 17

What does TOGA LK indicate?

Back 17

TOGA thrust is still being commanded

Front 18

How do you get out of TOGA LK?

Back 18

The A/THR must be disconnected

Front 19

During a go around, what FMA indications will confirm that the aircraft has entered the GA phase?

Back 19

MAN TOGA, SRS confirm the aircraft has entered the GA phase

Front 20

The aircraft is in normal law and autothrust is selected off. Is alpha floor available?

Back 20

Yes

Front 21

When the aircraft leaves A FLOOR, what FMA changes will occur?

Back 21

A FLOOR will change to TOGA LK

Front 22

When the A FLOOR mode triggers, what does A/THR command?

Back 22

A/THR will command TOGA

Front 23

321 NEO. The soft go around function automatically adapta the thrust to maintain approximately what rate of climb?

Back 23

2000 FPM

Front 24

321 NEO. To initiate the soft go around function, the pilot should move the thrust levers to:

Back 24

TOGA, initially then back to the FLX/MCT detent
