On takeoff, what speed does SRS command with both engines operating? |
SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain airspeed at V2 + 10 |
|
On takeoff, what speed does SRS command if an engine failure is detected? |
SRS gives pitch guidance to maintain the greater of V2 or current speed, limited to V2 + 15 |
|
When does the airplane exit SRS mode? |
Automatically at the acceleration altitude or when another vertical mode is engaged |
|
With VS active, what would happen if you select a higher speed? |
Thrust will increase (up to CLB, if needed) until the selected speed is attained. Then the thrust will reduce to maintain selected speed. |
|
Based on the PFD shown, what thrust is being commanded? |
Thrust at idle since speed selected is below indicated in a descent |
|
During a normal takeoff, when will the A/THR become engaged? |
After the thrust lever is moved to CLB detent |
|
In a managed climb, what FMA changes will occur if you pull HDG? |
NAV mode will change to HDG; CLB mode will change to OP CLB |
|
In a managed descent, what FMA changes will occur if you pull HDG? |
NAV mode will change to HDG; DES mode will change to VS, THR mode will change to SPEED |
|
During an ILS Approach, at approximately what altitude will the LOC/GS indication change to LAND on the FMA? What does (green) LAND mean? |
-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 |
|
During an autoland, when do you expect the FMA FLARE indication to appear? |
40' RA |
|
During an autoland, with the FMA FLARE indication displayed, what actions are occuring within the autopilot and autothrust? |
-Autopilot aligns yaw axis with runway centerline and flares in pitch -Autothrust reduces thrust to idle if engaged |
|
During an autoland, what does ROLL OUT indicate? |
The autopilot is guiding the aircraft along the runway centerline and the yaw bar is displayed on the PFD |
|
What are the 3 ways you can disconnect the autothrust? |
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 |
|
In level flight with the thrust levers in the CL detent, what will happen to the thrust if you press the instinctive disconnect pushbutton? |
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 |
|
What does THR LK mean and how do you fix it? |
Means: Thrust is fixed at the current setting To fix: Move the thrust levers |
|
What triggers A. FLOOR protection to engage? |
Triggered by a predetermined AOA. A FLOOR means A/THR will command TOGA thrust regardless of TL position |
|
What does TOGA LK indicate? |
TOGA thrust is still being commanded |
|
How do you get out of TOGA LK? |
The A/THR must be disconnected |
|
During a go around, what FMA indications will confirm that the aircraft has entered the GA phase? |
MAN TOGA, SRS confirm the aircraft has entered the GA phase |
|
The aircraft is in normal law and autothrust is selected off. Is alpha floor available? |
Yes |
|
When the aircraft leaves A FLOOR, what FMA changes will occur? |
A FLOOR will change to TOGA LK |
|
When the A FLOOR mode triggers, what does A/THR command? |
A/THR will command TOGA |
|
321 NEO. The soft go around function automatically adapta the thrust to maintain approximately what rate of climb? |
2000 FPM |
|
321 NEO. To initiate the soft go around function, the pilot should move the thrust levers to: |
TOGA, initially then back to the FLX/MCT detent |
