5. Special Conditions
Reminder: Within the scope of the establishment of the A320 Joint Certification Basis,
three types of special conditions were developed:
•
Special conditions: rose to cover novel or unusual features not
addressed by the JAR.
•
Experience related conditions: rose to record an agreed text for the
A320 Joint Certification Basis when evolution of JAR was in
progress under the NPA procedure.
•
Harmonization conditions: to record, for the purpose of the A320
Joint Certification Basis, a common understanding with respect to
National variant. This should not be confused with the FAA/JAA
harmonized regulations.

1
Whereas it is common use to apply the name of CFMI engines CFM56-5A1 and
CFM56-5A1/F, the correct names of the certified engines are:
- CFM56-5 is the certified engine name, when CFM56-5A1 is the usual name.
- CFM56-5-A1/F is the certified engine name, when CFM56-5A1/F is the usual
name.
2
A320-211 CFM 56-5A1 engine can be intermixed with CFM 56-5A1/F engine (MOD
23755) on the same aircraft.
3
From March 31st 2008, there is no longer any CFM56-5B/2 non /P in field or in
production. CFM56-5B4/2 engine model has been removed from CFM56-5B Type

The original maximum passenger seating capacity is 220.
The Modification 157272 enables the maximum seating capacity to be increased from
220 up to 230. This modification defines a virtual envelope of the Layout of
Passenger Accommodations (LOPA) and does not constitute an authorization for the
installation of seats in excess of 220. A separate approval is needed for the
installation of the individual customized cabin layout and the necessary cabin
adaptations up to 230 seats.

The original maximum passenger seating capacity is 145.
The Modification 157777 enables the maximum seating capacity to be increased from
145 up to 150. This modification defines a virtual envelope of the Layout of Passenger
Accommodations (LOPA) and does not constitute an authorization for the installation of
seats in excess of 145. A separate approval is needed for the installation of the
individual customized cabin layout and the necessary cabin adaptations up to 150
seats.

addressed by the JAR.
•
Experience related conditions: rose to record an agreed text for the
A320 Joint Certification Basis when evolution of JAR was in
progress under the NPA procedure.
•
Harmonization conditions: to record, for the purpose of the A320
Joint Certification Basis, a common understanding with respect to
National variant. This should not be confused with the FAA/JAA
harmonised regulations.

by
Having regard of the applicable JAR-OPS 1/EU-OPS 1 requirements and in accordance with
"Part 3-Procedure Document for Joint Operational Evaluation Board (JOEB)-Cabin Crew, at
various amendments”, which governed the (J)OEB CC evaluations, the following aircraft type
specific elements that would impact normal and/or emergency operations for cabin crew were
compared and assessed, in order to fulfil the purpose of the evaluations:

aircraft configuration
o number of aisles
o number of passenger decks

doors and exits
o exit arming/disarming
o direction of movement of the operating handle
o direction of exit opening
o power assist mechanism
Note: In accordance with JAR-OPS 1.1030/EU-OPS 1.1030 and later on with ORO.CC.250, selfhelp exits, for example Type III and Type IV exits, need not to be included in the
determination of new type or variant.


assisting evacuation means
aircraft systems for cabin crew duties
o emergency lighting system
o smoke detection system
o built-in fire extinguishing system
o drop-down oxygen system
o communication and public address system
o control and indication panels
Using the above categories as criteria, detailed Operator Differences Tables (ODRs) - the
Airbus equivalent for Aircraft Differences Tables (ADTs) - were provided by Airbus, in order to
highlight the exiting differences between the A320 as the “base” aircraft and the A318, the
A319, the A321 as the “candidate” aircraft within the comparisons.
The ODRs also include recommended levels of cabin crew training associated to the levels of
complexity of the identified differences between the base and the candidate aircraft.
The outcome of the A320 aircraft family (J) OEB CC evaluations confirmed that for cabin crew,
the A318, the A319, the A321, are variants of the A320 (as per JAR-OPS 1.1030; and later on,
in accordance with EU-OPS 1.1030 and ORO.CC.250). As such, cabin crew differences training
would be required when transferring from one aircraft to another, in order to ensure
compliance at the operator level, with JAR-OPS 1.1010, and later on, with EU OPS 1.1010 and
ORO.CC130.

TCDS A.064 ANNEX ‐ Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321 Issue 10 As contained in the ODRs, Levels of training varying from Level 1 to Level 3, were identified as
adequate in order to cover the design differences identified between the “base” and the
“candidate” aircraft.
Difference Levels
The following is an excerpt from Chapter 4 – Difference Levels for Training and
Checking of the EASA OEB Handbook, Part lll - Draft Procedures Document for Cabin
Crew Subgroup, version 5 of 04 Sept.2007, and defines the different levels of training.
Difference level

(Written information)
Checking
Not applicable
2
Aided Instruction
(CBT, Video.)
Hands-on Training
(Training Device, or Aircraft)
Applicable as required
3
Applicable
Level 1: Applicable to aircraft with differences that can be adequately addressed
through self-instruction. Level 1 training represents a knowledge requirement such that,
once appropriate information is provided, understanding and compliance can be
assumed to take place. Compliance with Level 1 training is typically achieved by
methods such as issuance of operating manual page revisions, dissemination of cabin
crew operating bulletins or differences hand-outs to describe minor differences between
aircraft.
Level 2: Applicable to aircraft with systems or procedural differences that can be
adequately addressed through aided instruction. At Level 2, aided instruction is
appropriate to ensure crew understanding, emphasise issues, provide a standardised
method of presentation of material, or to aid retention of material following training.
Level 2 aided instruction typically employs such means as slide/tape presentations,
computer based training (CBT), stand-up lectures or videotapes.
Level 3: Applicable to aircraft with differences that can only be addressed through use
of devices capable of system training (i.e. hands-on training). Training devices are
required to supplement instruction to ensure attainment or retention of crew skills and
abilities to accomplish the more complex tasks, usually related to operation of particular
aircraft systems. Typical training devices for Level 3 would include emergency
evacuation procedures trainers, fire and smoke trainers, cabin crew panel trainers etc.
When dedicated trainers are not available, Level 3 would require hands-on training
using the aircraft.
In addition to the transfer of the A320 OEB CC Report to the A320 Cabin Crew Operational
Suitability Data - Data compliance documentation, and in response to the Commission
Regulation No 69/2014, Airbus and EASA have agreed on the Airbus proposed division of the
Operational Suitability Data in mandatory data (M) and non-mandatory data (AMC =
Acceptable Means of Compliance), as highlighted in the compliance documentation.
As per the Commission Regulation (EU) No 69/2014, Article 7a, para.3, the elements identified
in accordance with the JAA/EASA procedures (described above), shall be included in the
relevant type-certificate and shall be deemed to constitute the A320 aircraft family cabin crew
operational suitability data, approved in accordance with this CRI.

FINDING

REQUIREMENTS:
ADVISORY MATERIAL:
Issue 10 D-0329-001: Forward facing seats with more than 18° to
aircraft centreline
A318 / A319 / A320 / A321
JAR 25.785(c)
---
For the installation of seats making an angle of 29° with the aircraft longitudinal axis, dynamic
developmental tests have shown that for this installation the test dummy upper torso behaves
like in a forward facing impact. This is supported by the design of the seat surroundings, which
allows a free forward alignment of the test dummy upper torso during the impact.
As for typical forward facing seating there is no obstruction on the seat occupied or
surroundings that neither creates a risk to the occupant nor imposes to the upper dummy body
any severe side twisting effect during the impact.
Only the shape of the monument or seat in front rather than the seat angle itself may generate
a certain dummy side movement and/or twisting. This is comparable to observation made on
forward facing seat arrangements, where the shape of the seat or monument in front of the
seat introduces body twisting effects.
The development tests show that the seat design allows the ATD upper torso to align with the
deceleration vector, thus it can be concluded that the application of energy absorbing rests for
arms, shoulders, head and spine as per CS25.785(c) is not required.
Therefore, Airbus consider that based on the development test conclusions and a qualitative
assessment of the videos, an equivalent level of safety of occupant protection to the part of
JAR 25.785(d) requiring an “Energy absorbing rest for the upper body parts or a shoulder
harness”, can be demonstrated by applying the test conditions of 25.562(b).
The design of the seat and the surrounding items must carefully chosen to maximise the ability
of the occupant to align with the deceleration vector during the impact.
The installation of an airbag-belt system may be required if the occupant does not realign as
much as expected (considering an acceptable forward facing seat under the provisions of JAR
25.785(d)) or if testing shows that the airbag (that is part of the seat design) plays a
significant role in maintaining acceptable protection.
Defined ATD internal force and moment measurements, in addition to those required by JAR
25.562 (c), are necessary for comparative purposes. These can be taken during dynamic
testing and compared with values from tests of a seat installed at less than 18 degrees to the
aircraft centreline. It should be noted that this approach cannot at present involve
consideration of absolute values as research data do not exist to back this up. Rather, this will
involve a check that the values observed are of comparable magnitude and range and will
provide confidence that the mitigating factors are achieving the desired outcome.
The CRI is expanded to all Single Aisle models, when seats are installed with an angle between
18° and 29° to the aircraft centreline provided the following conditions are observed:
1. To consider the specificities of the certification basis of the Single Aisle family:
depending on the aircraft model, seats must comply with:
a) the emergency landing conditions of JAR25.561 or
b) the emergency landing dynamic conditions of JAR 25.562, except (c)(5)(6), or
c) the full emergency landing dynamic conditions of JAR 25.562 if CRI E-31 is
applied (optional).

be deeply investigated. e.g. the armrests which could be within the occupant trajectory
must be fully stored for Taxi Take off & Landing and must remain stored during the
impact. No interaction is allowed between forward armrest and seated occupant. The
video analysis recorded during dynamic testing is an acceptable means to ensure the
required level of safety under emergency dynamic landing conditions.
3. The free alignment of the occupants to the resulting deceleration vector must always be
provided under any landing condition.
a) Considering emergency landing conditions only, same level of safety is expected
if there is no seat or surrounding structure blocking the free alignment of the
occupants.
b) The three standard cameras of the dynamic seat testing (respectively installed
on the left, right and top of the test rig), are recording the ATD motion
throughout the entire partial/dynamic event.
4. The recorded videos are a means for the visual verification for free alignment under
emergency partial/dynamic landing conditions. In addition the head injury criterion
must be below HIC1000 for emergency dynamic landing conditions.
5. The installation of an airbag-belt system may be required if the occupant does not
realign as much as expected (considering an acceptable forward facing seat under the
provisions of JAR 25.785(d)) or if testing shows that the airbag (that is part of the seat
design) plays a significant role in maintaining acceptable protection.
6. For aircraft where compliance with the emergency landing conditions for seat JAR
25.562 is not required, the head strike radius of 35 inch measured from the seat
reference point to interior installations as defined in AC 25-785-1B must be defined
from the SRP at the centreline between the lap-belt attachment point of that seat
parallel to the centreline of the aircraft. The head strike radius must be unobstructed
for the width of the seat provided down to the height of the seat cushion.
7. The installation of oblique seats is restricted to areas excluding access to Type III
emergency exits. If oblique seat form the boundary in front of a Type III access the
access path shall be 20 inches wide.
8. If an airbag system is required, either belt mounted or wall mounted, to meet the
criteria of JAR 25.562(c)(5) HIC 1000 the conditions defined in CRI E-31 must be
complied with.

The use of electrical latches released by a pressure sensor signal to meet rapid decompression
requirements is an unusual design feature, and particular attention should be paid to ensure
that compliance to JAR 25.365 is not compromised by this new design feature.
Failure of a decompression mechanism to function when needed could result in a catastrophic
failure. Therefore, and in accordance with 25.1309, a quantitative system safety assessment
should be produced to justify the system architecture, and to show that its reliability and
failure mode effects and probabilities are acceptable.
The JAA team will check the compliance of the proposed design against the following
requirements introduced by FAR 25 amendment 106:
Section 25.772 is amended by revising the introductory language and paragraph (a) and by
adding a new paragraph (c) to read as follows:
Sec. 25.772 Pilot compartment doors.
For an airplane that has a lockable door installed between the pilot compartment and the
passenger compartment:
(a) For airplanes with a maximum passenger seating configuration of more than 20 seats,
the emergency exit configuration must be designed so that neither crewmembers nor
passengers require use of the flightdeck door in order to reach the emergency exits provided
for them; and
*****
(c) There must be an emergency means to enable a flight attendant to enter the pilot
compartment in the event that the flightcrew becomes incapacitated.

installation must be designed to:
(1) Resist forcible intrusion by unauthorized persons and be capable of withstanding impacts
of 300 Joules (221.3 foot-pounds) at the critical locations on the door, as well as a 250 pound
(1113

FAA AC 25.795-1 (Flight deck intrusion resistance) and AC 25.795-2 (flight deck penetration

to the test set-up proposed by the AC should be identified in the relevant test plans, which will
be submitted to the JAA team for review.
In addition, the FAA memorandum published on November 6, 2001 and revised on March 22,
2002, on « certification of strengthened flight deck doors on transport category airplanes »
provides additional useful guidance for showing compliance to 25.795 and other applicable JAR
25 paragraphs.
In order to show that the modified cockpit door can fulfil its intended function in normal and
emergency (failure case and hijacking situation) conditions, the applicant should present to the
JAA certification team the foreseen minimum sequence of events from which operational
procedures associated to this new door design can be developed.
Foreseen MMEL relief cases should be presented to the JAA certification team. The JAA requires
that the level of safety intended by basic airworthiness requirements related to rapid
decompression and emergency evacuation be maintained under MMEL conditions. In the event
of a system failure that would result in a door unlocking, the door should maintain at least the
ability to be closed in flight. The applicant should propose operational and or design measures
to reduce exposure to the risk of an unauthorized cockpit intrusion in such a case.

ADVISORY MATERIAL:
A320
JAR 25.813(c)(1), JAR 25.807(a)(3)
N/A
Issue 10 Statement of Issue I:
As a result of positioning the Type III sill height to meet the step down requirements of JAR
25.807(a)(3) and hence preclude the need for a supplementary step outside the aircraft, the
passenger seat cushion immediately adjacent to the overwing exit encroaches into the outline
of the exit in the fuselage.
JAR 25.813(c)(1) requires that the projected opening of the exit provided may not be
obstructed and there must be no interference in opening the exit by seats, berths or other
protrusions for the width of a passenger seat.
The actual opening in the fuselage is however larger than the minimum, i.e. 20” x 40” rather
than 20” x 36”.
The Airworthiness Authorities are prepared to accept compliance by Equivalent Safety based
upon the following:
-
Tests have shown that such an encroachment will not interfere with the effective opening
of each overwing hatch.
The actual opening in the side of the fuselage is larger than the minimum required.
The seat cushion is readily compressible down to the level of the exit outline, assuming a
force of 170 LB evenly distributed over 40 square inches (this criteria has been found to be
an acceptable means of compliance on other aircraft types).
JAA Conclusion:
JAA accepts an Equivalent Safety finding to JAR 25.813(c) on the basis that:
-
The A320 Type III exit is 4” oversize (20” x 40” for a minimum required of 20” x 36”)
The seat cushion does not encroach into the minimum required exit opening.
The seat cushion is readily compressible.
A minimum of 7” unobstructed access is provided to the Type III exit.
Step down requirement of JAR 25.807 is met without providing any supplementary step
outside.
In addition, it has been demonstrated by test that there is no interference in opening the exit.
Statement of Issue II:
The outboard seat adjacent to the emergency exit has been equipped with thinner seat cushion
and the comfort is reduced. This could be improved by an increase of the outboard seat
cushion height to 18.8” (instead of 16.8”) in combination with a minimum 10” passageway
leading to the exit.
Test has demonstrated that with a minimum access passageway to each Type III exit of 10”,
there is sufficient width of exit sill to allow compliance with JAR 25.807(a)(3), i.e. the ‘step
down’ is from the sill rather than the compressed seat cushion.

TCDS A.064 ANNEX ‐ Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321 Issue 10 JAA Conclusion:
An Equivalent Safety finding with JAR 25.813(c)(1) is granted on the basis that:
-
There is no interference with exit operation (as demonstrated by test), provided the seat
cushion height is limited to 18.8”.
Whilst the seat cushion does intrude into the ‘exit opening provided’, this is compensated
by the provision of a larger than minimum Type III exit size, i.e. the seat cushion line is
beneath the 20” x 36” minimum exit opening.

A320
JAR 25.807
N/A
Statement of Issue:
An application was made on September 30, 1992 to JAA for certification of maximum number
of passengers of 180.
Paragraph 25.807(c)(1) of JAR specifies for passenger seating configuration, the number and
types of Emergency Exits for each side of the fuselage.
The maximum seating capacity allowable under JAR 25.807(c)(1) for A320 exit configuration is
179 (2 Type I and 2 Type III).
However, the exits size for front and rear doors on the A320 is such (32x73 inches) that they
are oversized Type I and therefore can be considered as a non standard exit arrangement.
The same exit size is being used on a derivative of the A320, for which Latin Square Tests
have been conducted in order to establish an appropriate rating for that kind of exits. These
tests have shown that, when associated with the performance of the slide installed at these
exits, a rating of 55 passengers is appropriate.
It should also be noted that the full scale emergency evacuation demonstration of the A320
with 179 passengers has demonstrated compliance with JAR 25.803(c) with sufficient margin
to justify 180 passengers.
Under those conditions, a maximum capacity of 180 passengers is requested for the A320.
JAA Conclusion:
Based upon the demonstrated higher rating for the floor level exits and the adequate margins
for 179 passengers shown in the 90 seconds demonstration, and used as a basis to show
compliance to JAR 25.803(c), the JAA accept 180 passengers as the maximum capacity for the
A320 on the basis of an Equivalent Safety Finding.

A318A319/A320/A321
14 CFR Part 25.856(b) amendment 111
N/A
BACKGROUND
The FAA has adopted upgraded flammability standards for thermal and acoustic insulation
materials used in transport category airplanes. These standards include new flammability tests
and criteria that address flame propagation (FAR 25.856(a)) and the entry of an external fire
into the airplane, or burn through (FAR 25.856(b)).
FAR 25.856(a) is applicable to Airbus aircraft manufactured on and after September 2005
through operational requirements of FAR 121.312.
FAR 25.856(b) is applicable to Airbus aircraft manufactured on and after September 2009
through operational requirements of FAR 121.312.
The intent of these requirements is to enhance safety by reducing the incidence and the
severity of cabin fires, particularly those in inaccessible areas where thermal and acoustical
insulation materials are installed, and by providing additional time for evacuation by delaying
the entry of post-crash fires into the cabin.
The EASA intends to publish similar requirements by amending CS-25 with new paragraphs
25.856(a) 25.856(b). This rulemaking activity (EASA task 25.006) is expected to follow the
FAA texts as already adopted in FAR Part 25 Amendment 111. The EASA rulemaking for this
has been on hold for some time because of the problems reported by the industry with the
Park burner mandated by Appendix F Part VII (flame penetration), which was not providing
appropriate means for reliable and repetitive certification tests. These problems have been
resolved with the FAA to such extent that EASA rulemaking can be progressed; it is therefore
understood that the technical content of the EASA CS-25 will be identical to the FAR 25.856.
With respect to the operational requirement, the JAA task NPA 26-17 is part of the JAA
Rulemaking program for 2007/08, which has formally been presented to the JAAC. The task
was to start 3rd quarter 2007 with a draft JAA NPA prepared by the Agency in co-operation
with the JAA CSSG and based on their original JAA text (itself based on the FAR text) so that it
could be presented to OST in January 2008 for their approval with the JAA NPA publication.
The rulemaking is planned to be completed end 2008/beginning 2009 by a JAAC decision.
While the FAA gave 2 years after the date of applicability of the rule to comply with FAR
25.856(a), and 6 years for the flame penetration, the EASA compliance periods however could
be proposed shorter in the NPA. Nevertheless, there is currently no clear indication regarding
the timeframe EASA will enforce.
Flame propagation (FAR 25.856(a) and Appendix F Part VI):
Airbus has already adopted the flame propagation requirements of FAR 25.856(a) and
Appendix F Part VI as a flammability standard. The thermal/acoustic insulation materials that
are installed on all Airbus aircraft manufactured after September 2005 comply with the flame
propagation requirements. (Ref: CRI E-18).
Flame penetration requirements (FAR 25.856(b) and Appendix F Part VII):
The upgrade of the aircraft in compliance with FAR 25.856(b) requirements has a large design
impact on the aircraft, and it is a burden for Airbus to handle two flammability standards (one
for the insulation materials that are installed on aircraft operated under FAR 121, and one for
the other operators).

In order to reduce the production burden associated to the handling of two different standards
(one of FAR 121operators / one for other operators), Airbus will proceed with the upgrade

FAR 25.856(b), JAR 25.853, JAR 25.855
N/A
BACKGROUND
In order to improve the overall aircraft flammability standard, Airbus voluntarily elected to
comply with FAR 25.856(b) rule. Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 design typically does not have
thermal/acoustic insulation installed on the fuselage skin in the bilge areas (the area below the
lower lobe cargo floor). Instead, most Airbus airplanes have the insulation installed on the
underside of the cargo floor, and per the flame penetration requirements of 25.856(b), this
insulation would be subject to the fire penetration resistance test of appendix F, part VII. Since
implementing this level of fire protection into the insulation on the floor panels presents
several design and implementation challenges, Airbus has proposed an alternative method of
compliance under the equivalent level of safety provisions of Part 21A 16B.
EQUIVALENT SAFETY FINDING
The existing cargo floor panels have been tested and the results showed that the layers are
flame penetration resistant in terms of FAR 25.586 (b). The floor panels constitute a fire
barrier (Barrier 1), with a determined amount of openings (drain pans, Power Drive Units, etc).
The cargo compartment lining is qualified and certified according to 25.855, appendix F part
Ill, and constitutes also a fire barrier (Barrier 2)..
With respect to the burn through resistance of LDCC floor, the barrier 1 acts as a "filter".
Airbus has demonstrated that the remaining heat flux that passes through it dissipates in the
LDCC (forward and aft sections). The amount of heat flux to which the cargo lining and cargo
ceiling (Barrier 2) are exposed reduces extremely significantly. The analysis performed shows
that the heat flux to which the cargo ceiling (Barrier 2) can be exposed is below the maximum
heat flux value mandated by the rule. Furthermore, tests performed by Airbus have
demonstrated that the temperature at the level of the cargo ceiling (Barrier 2) never exceeds
1700°F (927°C) within 4 minutes.
Airbus has demonstrated that the LDCC constitutes an effective burn through barrier. The
combination of Barrier 1 according to FAR Part 25.856 (b) and of the Barrier 2 according to
FAR Part 25.855 (c) increases the time for evacuation in case of a post-crash fire sufficiently to
meet the intent of the requirements of FAR 25.856 (b).

TCDS A.064 ANNEX ‐ Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321 Issue 10 Based on the LDCC demonstration, similar analysis has been conducted for all the different
Lower Deck Compartments, and demonstrates that these compartments provide an effective
flame penetration protection.
In view of the above considerations and related test evidences, the LDCC on Airbus Single
Aisle provides in the Bilge Area a fire barrier equivalent to that requested by FAR 25.856(b) .
Therefore compliance with CRI E-28 has been demonstrated through an equivalent level of
safety approach.

N/A
1)
HIC Characteristic
The existing means of controlling Head Injury Criterion (HIC) result in an unquantified
but nominally predictable progressive reduction of injury severity for impact conditions
less than the maximum specified by the rule. Airbag technology however involves a step
change in protection for impacts below and above that at which the airbag device
deploys. This could result in the HIC being higher at an intermediate impact condition
than that resulting from the maximum.
It is acceptable for the HIC to have such a non-linear or step change characteristic
provided that the value does not exceed 1000 at any condition at which the inflatable lap
belt does or does not deploy, up to the maximum severity pulse specified by the
requirements. Tests must be performed to demonstrate this taking into account any
necessary tolerances for deployment.
2)
Intermediate Pulse Shape
The existing ideal triangular maximum severity pulse is defined in FAA AC 25.562.1.
EASA considers that for the evaluation and testing of less severe pulses, a similar
triangular pulse should be used with acceleration, rise time, and velocity change scaled
accordingly.
3)
Protection during Secondary Impacts
EASA acknowledges that the inflatable lap belt will not provide protection during
secondary impacts after actuation. However, evidence must be provided that the postdeployment features of the installation shall not result in an unacceptable injury hazard.
This must include consideration of the deflation characteristics in addition to physical
effects. As a minimum, a qualitative assessment shall be provided.
Furthermore, the case where a small impact is followed by a large impact must be
addressed. In such a case if the minimum deceleration severity at which the airbag is set
to deploy is unnecessarily low, the bag's protection may be lost by the time the second
larger impact occurs. It must be substantiated that the trigger point for airbag
deployment has been chosen to maximize the probability of the protection being
available when needed.
4)
Protection of Occupants other than 50th Percentile
The existing policy is to consider other percentile occupants on a judgmental basis only
i.e. not using direct testing of inquiry criteria but evidence from head paths etc. to
determine likely areas of impact.
The same philosophy may be used for inflatable lap belts in that test results for other
size occupants need not be submitted. However, sufficient evidence must be provided
that other size occupants are protected.
A range of stature from a two-year-old child to a ninety-five percentile male must be
considered.
In addition the following situations must be taken into account:
The seat occupant is holding an infant, including the case where a supplemental loop
infant restraint is used:
The seat occupant is a child in a child restraint device.
The seat occupant is a pregnant woman
5)
Occupants Adopting the Brace Position
There is no requirement for protection to be assessed or measured for set occupants in
any other position or configuration than seated alone upright, as specified in FAA AC
25.562-1A (dated 19 January 1996). However, it must be shown that the inflatable lap

Page 21
TCDS A.064 ANNEX ‐ Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321 Issue 10 belt does not, in itself, form a hazard to any occupant in a brace position during
deployment.
6)
It must be shown that the gas generator does not release hazardous quantities of gas or
particulate matter into the cabin.
7)
It must be ensured by design that the inflatable lap belt cannot be used in the incorrect
orientation (twisted) such that improper deployment would result.
8)
The probability of inadvertent deployment must be shown to be acceptably low. The
seated occupant must not be seriously injured as a result of the inflatable label
deployment, including when loosely attached. Inadvertent deployment must not cause a
hazard to the aircraft or cause injury to anyone who may be positioned close to the
inflatable lap belt (e.g. seated in an adjacent seat or standing adjacent to the seat).
Cases where the inadvertently deploying inflatable lap belt is buckled or unbuckled
around a seated occupant and where it is buckled or unbuckled in an empty seat must be
considered.
9)
It must be demonstrated that the inflatable lap belt when deployed does not impair
access to the buckle, and does not hinder evacuation, including consideration of adjacent
seat places and the aisle.
10)
There must be a means for a crewmember to verify the integrity of the inflatable lap belt
activation system prior to each flight, or the integrity of the inflatable lap belt activation
system must be demonstrated to reliably operate between inspection intervals.
11)
It must be shown that the inflatable lap belt is not susceptible to inadvertent deployment
as a result of wear and tear, or inertial loads resulting from in-flight or ground
manoeuvres likely to be experienced in service.
12)
The equipment must meet the requirements of JAR 25.1316 with associated guidance
material IM S-1006 for indirect effects of lightning. Electro static discharge must also be
considered.
13)
The equipment must meet the requirements for HIRF (SC S-10.2 and IM S-10.2) with an
additional minimum RF test for the threat from passenger electronic devices of 15 Watts
radiated power.
14)
The inflatable lap belt mechanisms and controls must be protected from external
contamination associated with that which could occur on or around passenger seating.
15)
The inflatable lap belt installation must be protected from the effects of fire such that no
hazard to occupants will result.
16)
The inflatable lap belt must provide adequate protection for each occupant regardless of
the number of occupants of the seat assembly or adjacent seats considering that
unoccupied seats may have active inflatable lap belts, which may be buckled or
unbuckled.
17)
Each inflatable lap belt must function properly following any separation in the fuselage.
18)
It is accepted that a material suitable for the inflatable bag that will meet the normally
accepted flammability standard for a textile, i.e. the 12 second vertical test of JAR25
Appendix F, Part 1, Paragraph (b)(4), is not currently available.
In recognition of the overall safety benefit of inflatable lap belts, and in lieu of this
standard, it is acceptable for the material of the inflatable bags to have an average burn
rate of no greater than 2.5 inches/minute when tested using the horizontal flammability
test of JAR25 Appendix F, part I, paragraph (b)(5).

BACKGROUND
The A321 exit configuration consists of 4 pairs of non-standard exits and thus the
arrangement is covered by neither table 25.807(c)(1) nor table 25.807(c)(2). In addition,
these exits are oversized Type I exits.
The exit arrangement and sizes are as follows:
1L/1R - 4L/4R: 32" wide X 73" high (unchanged A320 standard)
2L: 30" wide X 73" high
2R: 30" wide X 73" high
3L/3R: 30" wide X 60" high.
AI wish to take credit for 55 pax for each pair of these oversized Type I exits.
AI proposes to show that the A321 exit arrangement should be certificated for a

N/A
Statement of Issue:
On the basic A321 aircraft, the doors 2 and 3 are classified as non-standard floor level exits
(see CRI E3001), equipped with assist means.
As a customer option, the applicant wishes to reclassify these exits to the requirements of a
Type III to allow a revised seating arrangement around these exits.
The maximum seating capacity would be adjusted accordingly.
Each of the exists will be provided with:
- an unobstructed 12 inch passageway from the aisle to the exit,
- an assist space of appropriate dimensions,
- a cabin attendants seat,
- exit operating placards installed on each exit and on the back of passenger seats in
front of the passageway,
- fixed seat backs and restricted recline and break-over for all seats bounding the
passageways to the exits,
- outboard seat armrest will not encroach into the exit clear opening.
The exit design and operating mechanism, and the slide configuration would remain
unchanged from the basic floor level exit arrangement.
On this basis, the applicant wishes to rate these Type III exits at 35 passengers, i.e.
Maximum capacity for either doors 2 and 3 changed to Type III
Maximum capacity with both doors 2 and 3 classified as Type III
= 200 pax.
= 180 pax.
JAA Position:
In view of the close proximity of passengers to the exit operating system, the arrangement
must be designed to minimise the likelihood of inadvertent operation of disarm / arm lever.
The provision of a cabin attendant seat and an associated assist space in a position next to and
to the right of the aisle is considered satisfactory as meeting the intent of JAR 25.785 and
25.813.
Since the modified exit arrangement involves a floor level exit with assist means, a cabin
attend will be required at these exists to manage the assist means.
IM-E4:
The projected opening of the minimum required Type III exit may not be obstructed and the
12 inch unobstructed passageway leading from the aisle to the exit must be totally within the
contour of the minimum required Type III exit.

JAR 25.1443(c)
N/A
In lieu of the airworthiness requirements of JAR 25.1443(c) and associated standards of TSO
C64a/SAE AS 8025, the following compliance method is considered acceptable:
For passengers and cabin crew members, it shall be shown, that the passenger oxygen system
provides an equivalent level of protection from hypoxia as detailed below:
(1) Between 10,000 ft and 18,500 ft cabin pressure altitude, the supplemental oxygen system
for the passenger and cabin crew shall provide a blood oxygenation level that is equivalent
with the blood oxygenation level reached at 10,000 ft cabin pressure altitude when
breathing standard air. Breathing standard air at 10,000 ft cabin pressure altitude provides
a mean tracheal oxygen partial pressure of 100 mmHg as required by JAR 25.1443(c).
(2) Between 18,500 ft and 40,000 ft cabin pressure altitude, the supplemental oxygen system
for the passenger and cabin crew shall provide a blood oxygenation level that is equivalent
with the blood oxygenation level reached at 14,000 ft cabin pressure altitude when
breathing standard air. Breathing standard air at 14,000 ft cabin pressure altitude provides
a mean tracheal oxygen partial pressure of 83.8 mmHg as required by JAR 25.1443(c).
TEST SET UP
(a) The blood oxygenation level in human bodies is characterised by the stabilised arterial
blood oxygen saturation level (SaO2). The purpose of the test is to demonstrate that the
supplemental oxygen dispensing equipment ensures test subjects SaO2 levels, which are
sufficient or at least as high as the applicable baseline SaO2:
(1) 10,000 feet baseline: At 10,000 ft cabin pressure altitude, the “10,000 ft baseline”
SaO2 of test subjects will be measured while breathing standard air. In the next step,
the cabin pressure will be reduced in steps up to 18,500 ft cabin pressure altitude
while the test subjects are breathing supplemental oxygen at a flow rate that matches
the “10,000 ft base-line” SaO2 level.
(2) 14,000 feet baseline: At 14,000 ft cabin pressure altitude, the “14,000 ft baseline”
SaO2 of test subjects will be measured while breathing standard air. In the next step,
the cabin pressure will be reduced in steps up to 40,000 ft cabin pressure altitude
while the test subjects are breathing supplemental oxygen at a flow rate that matches
the “14,000 ft base-line” SaO2 level.
(b) The cabin altitude depending oxygen flow rates will be recorded and later used to specify
the cabin altitude depending oxygen flow performance of the supplemental oxygen
dispensing equipment. The test results from the 10,000 feet baseline will be used for the
cabin pressure altitude range of 10,000 to 18,500 ft, whereas the 14,000 feet baseline will
be used for the cabin pressure altitude range of 18,500 to 40,000 ft.
(c) The testing shall be accomplished in accordance with established industry practices. The
evaluation of the passenger oxygen system performance must include an agreed number
of masks and randomly selected novice human subjects. If new and novel test methods
are used statistical means must be provided to justify the quantity of test subjects.
(d) The test subjects shall be exposed to the full range of altitudes for which the system will be
certified to. A series of exposures at increments of at maximum 7,500 feet pressure
altitude is acceptable for compliance demonstration. Existing data might also be used such

(e) To address the increased breathing rate of a panicking person, the equipment must deliver
the in the above mentioned paragraph “a1” and “a2” specified oxygen flow rate under the
JAR 25.1443(c) specified tidal volume and breathing rate, which may be demonstrated by
tests using a breathing machine (breathing machine performance as specified in SAE ARP

Conclusion:
a) With regard to the A320 ETOPS certification basis:
The A320 JAA ETOPS Type Design Approval (eligibility and capability) will be re-assessed
according to JAR Information Leaflet N° dated 1/7/1995.
However the following consideration should be taken into account:
The JAA have considered the fact that the third generator (CSM/G) is not capable to power the
weather radar, landing lights, auto-pilot, auto-throttle, main fuel pumps and windshield antiicing.
The availability of those services was not required by the A320 initial ETOPS certification basis
(CAA CAP513).
The JAA agree to apply the grandfather clause as defined in the IL 20.
Therefore, for A320, the availability of the above-mentioned services is accepted when the
CSM/G is used as third generator.
b) With regard to the A320 ETOPS MMEL (CFMI and IAE engines):
Dispatch with one engine driven generator is not allowed for ETOPS.
Dispatch for one return flight with the APU/APU GEN inoperative is allowed for 120 minutes
ETOPS.
Dispatch for ETOPS 180 minutes flight is only permitted with all generators serviceable.

N/A
The following special conditions are part of the type design certification basis for Airbus
A318/A319/A320/A321 with a centre tank(s) equipped with a Flammability Reduction
System (FRS).
Compliance with these special conditions does not relieve the applicant from compliance
with the existing certification requirements.
These special conditions define additional requirements for the design and installation of
a FRS that will inert fuel tanks with NEA in order to reduce the fleet average flammability
exposure to 3% or less of the operational time for the aeroplane under evaluation. This
3% value is based upon the results of unheated wing tank Monte Carlo flammability
analysis that gives results typically around this value. In order to address the high-risk
phases of flight (i.e., warm/hot day pre-flight ground operations and climb where
flammable conditions are more likely to occur), when the FRS is functional, it will be
required to reduce the flammability exposure in each of these phases of operation to 3%
or less of the operational time in those phases.
Irrespective of the addition of FRS, ignition source minimisation must still be applied to the
tanks. Therefore the applicant is required to summarise modifications required for ignition
source minimisation to be applied to the centre tank in compliance with INT/POL/25/12
(CS 25.1309).
The applicant may propose that MMEL relief is provided for aircraft operation with the FRS
unavailable. Appropriate justification in accordance with normal policies and procedures
including mitigating factors must be provided.

the time interval under evaluation.
System Performance and Reliability
It must be demonstrated that the FRS reduces tank flammability to levels defined in
these special conditions. This should be shown by complying with performance and
reliability requirements as follows:
(a)
(b)
The applicant must submit a combined fleet performance and reliability analysis
(Monte Carlo analysis as described in Appendices 1 and 2) that must:
(1)
Demonstrate that the overall fleet average flammability exposure of each fuel
tank with a FRS installed is equal to or less than 3% of the FEET; and
(2)
Demonstrate that neither the performance (when the FRS is operational) nor
reliability (including all periods when the FRS is inoperative) contributions to
the overall fleet average flammability exposure of a tank with a FRS installed
are more than 1.8 percent (this will establish appropriate maintenance
inspection procedures and intervals as required in paragraph 1.4 of these
special conditions).
The applicant must submit a Monte Carlo analysis that demonstrates that the FRS,
when functional, reduces the overall fleet average flammability exposure of each
fuel tank with a FRS installed for warm day ground and climb phases to a level
equal to or less than 3% of the FEET in each of these phases for the following
conditions:
(1)
The analysis must use the subset of 80°F (26.7°C) and warmer days from the
Monte Carlo analyses done for overall performance, and
(2)
The flammability exposure must be calculated by comparing the time during
ground and climb phases for which the tank was flammable and not inert with
the total time for the ground and climb phases.

tank where the inerting system is needed to show compliance with these
paragraphs.
(d)
The applicant must validate that the FRS meets the requirements of paragraphs

1. Monte Carlo Model
2.
(a)
The FAA has developed a Monte Carlo model that can be used to develop a
specific analysis model for the Boeing 747 to calculate fleet average and warm
day flammability exposure for a fuel tank. The program requires the user to enter
the aeroplane performance data specific to the aeroplane model being evaluated,
such as maximum range, cruise mach number, typical step climb altitudes, tank
thermal characteristics specified as exponential heating/cooling time constants,
and equilibrium temperatures for various fuel tank conditions. The general
methodology for conducting a Monte Carlo model is described in AC 25.981-2.
(b)
The FAA model, or one with modifications approved by the FAA, must be used as
the means of compliance with these special conditions. Contact EASA Certification
Directorate to obtain the correct version of the model to use. The following
procedures, input variables, and data tables must be used in the analysis if the
applicant develops a unique model to determine fleet average flammability
exposure for a specific aeroplane type.
Monte Carlo Variables and Data Tables
(a)
Fleet average flammability exposure is the percent of the mission time the fuel
tank ullage is flammable for a fleet of an aeroplane type operating over the range
of actual or expected missions and in a world-wide range of environmental
conditions and fuel properties.
Variables used to calculate fleet average
flammability exposure must include atmosphere, mission length (as defined in
paragraph 1.2 Definitions, as FLEET), fuel flash point, thermal characteristics of
the fuel tank, overnight temperature drop, and oxygen evolution from the fuel into
the ullage. Transport effects are not to be allowed as parameters in the analysis.
(b)
For the purposes of these special conditions, a fuel tank is considered flammable
when the ullage is not inert and the fuel vapour concentration is within the
flammable range for the fuel type being used. The fuel vapour concentration of
the ullage in a fuel tank must be determined based on the bulk average fuel
temperature within the tank. This vapour concentration must be assumed to exist
throughout all bays of the tank. For those aeroplanes with fuel tanks having
different flammability exposure within different compartments of the tank, where
mixing of the vapour or NEA does not occur, the Monte Carlo analysis must be
conducted for the compartment of the tank with the highest flammability. The
compartment with the highest flammability exposure for each flight phase must
be used in the analysis to establish the fleet average flammability exposure. For
example, the centre wing fuel tank in some designs extends into the wing and has
compartments of the tank that are cooled by outside air, and other compartments
of the tank that are insulated from outside air. Therefore, the fuel temperature
and flammability is significantly different between these compartments of the fuel
tank.
(c)
Atmosphere
(1)
In order to predict flammability exposure during a given flight, the variation of
ground ambient temperatures, cruise ambient temperatures, and a method to
compute the transition from ground to cruise and back again must be used. The
variation of the ground and cruise ambient temperatures and the flash point of the
fuel are defined by a Gaussian curve, given by the 50 percent value and a  1
standard deviation value.
Disclaimer – This document is not exhaustive and it will be updated gradually.
Page 42
TCDS A.064 ANNEX ‐ Airbus A318, A319, A320, A321 Issue 10 (2)
The ground and cruise temperatures are linked by a set of assumptions on the
atmosphere. The temperature varies with altitude following the International
Standard Atmosphere (ISA) rate of change from the ground temperature until the
cruise temperature for the flight is reached. Above this altitude, the ambient
temperature is fixed at the cruise ambient temperature. This results in a variation
in the upper atmosphere (tropopause) temperature. For cold days, an inversion is
applied up to 10,000 feet, and then the ISA rate of change is used. The warm
day subset (see paragraph 1.3 (b) (1) of these special conditions) for ground and
climb uses a range of temperatures above 80°F (26.7°C) and is included in the
Monte Carlo model.
(3)
The analysis must include a minimum number of flights, and for each flight a
separate random number must be generated for each of the three parameters
(i.e. ground ambient temperature, cruise ambient temperature, and fuel flash
point) using the Gaussian distribution defined in Table 1. The applicant can verify
the output values from the Gaussian distribution using Table 2.
(d) Fuel Properties.
(1)
Flash point variation. The variation of the flash point of the fuel is defined by a
Gaussian curve, given by the 50 percent value and a  1-standard deviation value.
(2)
Upper and Lower Flammability Limits. The flammability envelope of the fuel that
must be used for the flammability exposure analysis is a function of the flash point
of the fuel selected by the Monte Carlo for a given flight. The flammability
envelope for the fuel is defined by the upper flammability limit (UFL) and lower
flammability limit (LFL) as follows:
(i) LFL at sea level = flash point temperature of the fuel at sea level
minus10 degrees F. LFL decreases from sea level value with increasing
altitude at a rate of 1 degree F per 808 ft.
(ii)
UFL at sea level = flash point temperature of the fuel at sea level plus
63.5 degrees F. UFL decreases from the sea level value with increasing
altitude at a rate of 1 degree F per 512 ft.
Note: Table 1 includes the Gaussian distribution for fuel flash point. Table 2 also
includes information to verify output values for fuel properties. Table 2 is based
on typical use of Jet A type fuel, with limited TS-1 type fuel use.

Flight Mission Distribution
(1)
The mission length for each flight is determined from an equation that takes the
maximum mission length for the aeroplane and randomly selects multiple flight
lengths based on typical airline use.
(2)
The mission length selected for a given flight is used by the Monte Carlo model to
select a 30-, 60-, or 90- minute time on the ground prior to takeoff, and the type
of flight profile to be followed. Table 3 must be used to define the mission
distribution. A linear interpolation between the values in the table must be
assumed.

Fuel Tank Thermal Characteristics
(1)
The applicant must account for the thermal conditions of the fuel tank both on the
ground and in flight. The Monte Carlo model, available on the website listed
above, defines the ground condition using an equilibrium delta temperature
(relative to the ambient temperature) that the tank will reach given a long enough
time, with any heat inputs from aeroplane sources. Values are also input to
define two exponential time constants (one for a near empty tank and one for a
near full tank) for the ground condition. These time constants define the time for
the fuel in the fuel tank to heat or cool in response to heat input. The fuel is
assumed to heat or cool according to a normal exponential transition, governed by
the temperature difference between the current temperature and the equilibrium
temperature, given by ambient temperature plus delta temperature. Input values
for this data can be obtained from validated thermal models of the tank based on
ground and flight test data. The inputs for the in-flight condition are similar but
are used for in-flight analysis.
(2)
Fuel management techniques are unique to each manufacturer’s design and
variations in fuel quantity within the tank for given points in the flight, including
fuel transfer for any purpose, must be accounted for in the model. The model
uses a “tank full” time, specified in minutes, that defines the time before
touchdown when the fuel tank is still full. For a centre wing tank used first, this
number would be the maximum flight time, and the tank would start to empty at
takeoff. For a main tank used last, the tank will remain full for a shorter time
before touch down, and would be “empty” at touch down (i.e., tank empty at 0
minutes before touch down). For a main tank with reserves, the term empty
means at reserve level rather than totally empty. The thermal data for tank
empty would also be for reserve level.
(3)
The model also uses a “tank empty” time to define the time when the tank is
emptying, and the program uses a linear interpolation between the exponential
time constants for full and empty during the time the tank is emptying. For a
tank that is only used for long-range flights, the tank would be full only on longer
range flights and would be empty a long time before touch down. For short
flights, it would be empty for the whole flight. For a main tank that carried
reserve fuel, it would be full for a long time and would only be down to empty at
touch down. In this case, empty would really be at reserve level, and the thermal
constants at empty should be those for the reserve level.
(4)
The applicant must propose means to validate thermal time constants and
equilibrium temperatures to be used in the analysis. The applicant may propose
using a more detailed thermal definition, such as changing time constants as a
function of fuel quantity, provided the details and substantiation information are
acceptable and the Monte Carlo model programme changes are validated.
(g)
Overnight Temperature Drop
(1)
An overnight temperature drop must be considered in the Monte Carlo analysis as it
may affect the oxygen concentration level in the fuel tank. The overnight
temperature drop for these special conditions will be defined using:

A temperature at the beginning of the overnight period based on the landing
temperature that is a random value based on a Gaussian distribution; and

An overnight temperature drop that is a random value based on a Gaussian
distribution.

Issue 10 For any flight that will end with an overnight ground period (one flight per day out
of an average of “x” flights per day, depending on use of the particular aeroplane
model being evaluated), the landing outside air temperature (OAT) is to be chosen
as a random value from the following Gaussian curve:

Oxygen Evolution
The oxygen evolution rate must be considered in the Monte Carlo analysis if it can
affect the flammability of the fuel tank or compartment. Fuel contains dissolved
gases, and in the case of oxygen and nitrogen absorbed from the air, the oxygen
level in the fuel can exceed 30 percent, instead of the normal 21 percent oxygen
in air. Some of these gases will be released from the fuel during the reduction of
ambient pressure experienced in the climb and cruise phases of flight. The
applicant must consider the effects of air evolution from the fuel on the level of
oxygen in the tank ullage during ground and flight operations and address these
effects on the overall performance of the FRS. The applicant must provide the air
evolution rate for the fuel tank under evaluation, along with substantiation data.
(i)
Number of Simulated Flights Required in Analysis
In order for the Monte Carlo analysis to be valid for showing compliance with the
fleet average and warm day flammability exposure requirements of these special
conditions, the applicant must run the analysis for an appropriate number of
flights to ensure that the fleet average and warm day flammability exposure for
the fuel tank under evaluation meets the flammability limits defined in Table 6.
