They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. § T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL SCOPE / System overview Page 15 The FMS is composed of : Software application (called FMC in this document) located in the IAD. Pilot interfaces : − − MCDU with dual capability (2 MCDU for 1 FMC) MFD, PFD (display only) Data transfer media (Compact Flash memory) including: − − − Note: Navigation data (standard, company and pilot databases) Secondary flight plan Magnetic variation model Configuration data (performances and FM configuration) are managed at IAD level. OPERATIONAL DOMAIN This document and any data included are the property of Thales Avionics. They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. Coordinates : − − Performances of navigation are guaranteed in the range : ♦ Latitude : [S89, N89], ♦ Longitude : no restriction [W180, E180]. UTM or MGRS coordinates are limited to the range : ♦ Latitude : [S80, N84], ♦ Longitude : no restriction [W180, E180]. Ground Speed (GS) max : 750 kts Altitude : [-1500 ft, 65000 ft] Temperature : [-60 °C, 99 °C] THALES AVIONICS 2010 J61334BA - 01 T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL SCOPE / System interfaces Page 16 1.3 SYSTEM INTERFACES 1.3.1 GENERAL The FMS is built on a dual cockpit system architecture and is designed to operate in dual mode to insure that both FMC are continuously synchronized. PFD1 MFD1 MFD2 PFD2 Compact Flash FMC1 Compact Flash FMC2 Cross Talk ARINC 739 SENSORS1 SENSORS2 MDCU1 MDCU2 In the cockpit, switches enable to set the mode of reversion for the air data parameters source and for the attitude and heading parameters source, both on 1, normal, both on 2. Note: If only one RA is installed , both FMC uses the same Radio-Altimeter to provide the radio altitude. The normal reversion means that each FMC uses and manages data from its own side sources for its navigation computations. If the own side equipment is failed, the FMC will automatically use the equipment of the opposite side. In case the reversion is both on 1 (respectively both on 2), both FMC receive the same source side 1 (respectively side 2), even if data provided by this equipment is invalid. Note: For other sensors, no reversion is managed at cockpit level. J61334BA - 01 THALES AVIONICS 2010 This document and any data included are the property of Thales Avionics. They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. ARINC 661 T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL SCOPE / System interfaces Page 17 1.3.2 AIR DATA UNIT The FMC handles two Air Data Units (dual configuration) to provide the air data primary parameters (air speed, air temperature and baro altitude). In case of reversion at cockpit level, the FMC select the air data source according to the selected reversion. Without reversion at cockpit level, the air data source is the own side ADU if the air data parameters are valid, the opposite side otherwise. 1.3.3 ATTITUDE AND HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM The FMC handles two AHRS (dual configuration) to provide attitude and heading primary parameters (attitude angles & magnetic heading). In case of reversion at cockpit level, the FMC select the attitude and heading source according to the selected reversion. Without reversion at cockpit level, the attitude and heading source is the own side AHRS if the attitude and heading parameters are valid, the opposite side otherwise. 1.3.4 GPS CONFIGURATION This document and any data included are the property of Thales Avionics. They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. The FMS handles GPS as localization source. GPS source is the own side GPS if GPS is present and parameters are valid, the opposite side otherwise. 1.3.5 RADIO NAVIGATION ARCHITECTURE For localization function, FMC handles 2 VOR and 1 DME 3 channels radio navigation receivers. Each FMC can manage the radio navigation receivers but commands are only transmitted by the active FMC to the radio navigation receivers. Note: The active FMC features the FMC coupled with the autopilot. THALES AVIONICS 2010 J61334BA - 01 Page 18 FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL SCOPE / Navigation modes T 1.4 NAVIGATION MODES The following navigation modes are available: − − BCP, Best Computed Position (selected by default). GPS, Global Positioning System. Each one provides: − − − − Horizontal position, latitude and longitude. Ground speed. Track Angle. Speed and origin of the wind. Navigation computations are done in WGS84 datum reference, and so Standard and Pilot data are assumed to be defined in WGS84 reference. The BCP parameters are calculated by a specific filter weighted by the estimated errors, of the values provided by different sources. The sources used by the BCP computation are: GPS of selected side. Radio navigation receivers : 2 VOR, 1 DME 3 channels. Note: The BCP backup mode, DR mode (Dead reckoning), is automatically triggered when there is neither ground speed nor position available. In that case, TAS, heading and wind information are used. 1.5 CONVENTIONS 1.5.1 TEXT FORMAT 1.5.1.1 Pilot's actions Highlights a precondition to apply an action (IF).

They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. Those types are represented here below : 2.1.10 OFFSET This function allows the aircraft to fly parallel to the original flight plan by entering the value of the parallel offset (positive or negative). Refer to "MULTI PHASE RELATED PROCEDURES / Lateral functions / Offset" for more details about the restrictions. TO+1 TO TO FROM FROM No offset THALES AVIONICS 2010 TO+1 TO+1 TO Left offset OFST FROM OFST Right offset J61334BA - 01 Page 34 T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Definitions 2.1.11 REQUIRED TIME OF ARRIVAL This function allows to insert a time constraint on a flight plan waypoint. When a RTA is defined on a flight plan waypoint, an IAS target speed (IASrta) is computed in order to respect the RTA. The IASrta computed value is used for cruise, cruise descent and descent sections and nominal predictions are used for climb and cruise climb sections (refer to "VNAV phase" paragraph). The target IAS displayed on VNAV 1/2 page will be in accordance with this computation. The minimum value of IASrta will be computed with wind limitations: the drift must be less than 45°, the front wind must be less than half of predicted TAS and back wind must be less than twice the predicted TAS. So, the minimum value of the IAS can be greater than Vmin. A RTA can be defined for a waypoint in climb sections but no IASrta will be computed if the constraint is missed with FMS usual predictions. 2.1.12 NON RETURN POINT (NRP) Note: NRP is computed for the temporary flight plan but no alert is generated. NRP is not computed for the secondary flight plan. 2.1.13 MARK This function allows marking the present position by creating a new pilot waypoint and also updating the localization solution by entering a new position. The new position can be entered through a database identifier, a position latitude and longitude, or a position relative to a database fix by entering the identifier point, bearing, and distance from this fix.

They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. The Required Navigation Performance (RNP) is a statement of the navigation performance accuracy, integrity, continuity and availability necessary for oprations within a defined airspace. The current navigation performance accuracy is provided through the ANP parameter provided by the FMC. The monitoring of the ANP is a performance accuracy criteria of the navigation capability (RNP alert). The current navigation integrity is provided through the HIL parameter and monitoring is provided by the AIM alert (failure is detected by the RAIM or if the HIL is not below the alert limit based on the RNP criteria corresponding to the current flight area). The predicted integrity availability is provided through the PRAIM (PRAIM page 1/2). The comparison between the predicted HIL and the alert limit based on the RNP criteria allows verifying the integrity monitoring availability at destination or at any fix. The navigation performance integrity availability and continuity are provided also through the PRAIM along the flight plan (PRAIM page 2/2). The comparison between the predicted HIL and the RNP based limit and the check of the FDE availability flag for each point of the flight plan allow verifying the integrity monitoring availability and continuity along the flight plan according to the selected RNP criteria. The default values of the RNP depends on the flight area and on the sensors used for positioning according to the following rules : When GPS is used for positioning : − − − − 5 NM when the flight area is enroute area, 1 NM when the flight area is terminal. 0.3 NM when the flight area is approach and GPS integrity criteria was fullfilled. 0.7 NM when the flight area is approach and GPS integrity criteria was not fullfilled. When GPS is not used for positioning : − − − 5 NM when the flight area is enroute area, 2 NM when the flight area is terminal 0.7 NM when the flight area is approach Note: The Required Navigation performance (RNP) default value is set to 5 Nm after a long power interruption 2.1.14.1 Actual Navigation performance (ANP) The navigation capability monitoring is performed by comparison between both ANP and RNP parameters (RNP parameter is managed by FMC according to the flight area and pilot selection). The ANP corresponds to bound the Total System Error (TSE). TSE: Total System Error = Difference between the true position and the desired position on the trajectory (desired path). This error is equal to the vector sum of the path steering error, path definition error and position estimation error. PSE: Path Steering Error = Distance from the estimated position to the defined path. The PSE includes both FTE and display error. The display error is not taken into account in the ANP computation. THALES AVIONICS 2010 J61334BA - 01 Page 36 T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Definitions − FTE: Flight Technical Error = Accuracy with which the aircraft is controlled as measured by the indicated aircraft position with respect to the indicated command or desired position. It does not include blunder errors. PDE: Path Definition Error = Difference between the defined path and the desired path at a specific point. PEE: Position Estimation Error = Difference between true position and estimated position. EPE : Estimated Position Error is an estimated of the horizontal position uncertainty which bounds the true error with a probability of 95%. It is a function of the geometry between the A/C and the satellites (or navaids) and the actual accuracy of the measurements. This parameter may be misleading when a failure occurs, therefore the HIL is also monitored to verify the integrity of the navigation solution. Desired Path Path Defintion Error Defined Path Estimated Position Position Estimation Error True Position ANP = Quadratic sum of PDE, FTE and EPE.

Path Steering Error Total System Error T 2.1.14.2 FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Modes of operation Horizontal Integrity Limit (HIL) The Horizontal Integrity Limit (HIL) is the radius of a circle in the horizontal plane (local plane tangent to the WGS-84 ellipsoid), centered on the true position, that describes the region where assured to contain the indicated horizontal position computed by the GPS with a probability of 99.9%. It is a horizontal region where the required probabilities of missed alert (non detected failure) and false alert (alert without failure) are met for the chosen set of satellites when autonomous fault detection is used. It is a function of the satellite and user geometry and the expected error characteristics: it is not affected by actual measurements.

The standard data is not modifiable. The FMS allows to manage up to two standard databases (typically two AIRAC cycles). Only one database is selected at a same time (called used database). The crew has the capability to select the other one (called additional database). 2.3.1.2 Pilot data The pilot data is divided in 4 types of data: AIRPORT, NAVAID, WAYPOINT and ROUTE. Airport, Navaid and Route type contains up to 100 elements whereas Waypoint type contains up to 300 elements. The pilot data can be consulted, modified, created or erased.

They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. At power on, a cross talk initialization happens to ensure consistency between both FMC. When discrepancy is found between the compact flash contents (pilot database and/or secondary flight plan) of each side, a data transfer is performed between the two compact flash memories according to the following principles: If both FMC are started up at the same time (delay lower than 5 seconds), the transfer shall be performed from FMC side 1 to FMC side 2. If both FMC are started up with a delay greater than 5 seconds, the transfer shall be performed from the first powered up FMC to the last powered up FMC. In case the transfer fails, no data harmonization is performed and DTA alert will be raised (refer to "ABNORMAL PROCEDURE / Failures" ) Note: When discrepancy is found between the used standard databases and/or between the additional standard databases and/or between the company databases and/or between the magnetic variation reference models, no data harmonization is performed and specific alerts are generated (refer to "ABNORMAL PROCEDURE / Failures" chapter). COCKPIT: A flag is provided to allow displaying an alert on the cockpit displays when at least one alert is raised on MCDU. 2.3.2 FLIGHT PLANNING 2.3.2.1 General description A flight plan is a succession of legs (path and termination). The user may create a flight plan by entry of idents, referring to points defined in the database, with selection among duplicates if necessary. The user can use pre-stored departure procedures, waypoints, navaids, and arrival procedures, but can also create pilot data (waypoints, navaids, airports and routes) and use these data to build a flight plan. 2.3.2.2 Active flight plan The active flight plan (FPLN) is the flown flight plan used for A/C guidance purposes. It contains up to 100 legs. When modified by the crew, a copy of the active flight plan is built, called temporary flight plan. The aircraft is guided by the active flight plan, even when a temporary exists or a secondary flight plan is initialized. Once a temporary flight plan is created and until its activation or deletion, any flight plan revision is performed on the temporary flight plan and the active flight plan is not modified by crew revisions. Note: For temporary flight, the FPLN page becomes TMPY page and associated data are displayed in yellow. If any flight plan revision cannot be completed due to limit in the number of legs, the attempted revision is aborted with a the following scratchpad message: FPLN FULL THALES AVIONICS 2010 J61334BA - 01 Page 42 FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Flight management principles T After a cold start, the active flight plan is initialized as following: 2.3.2.3 Temporary flight plan When a revision is performed on the active flight plan and if no temporary flight plan exists, then a temporary flight plan is created as a copy of the active flight plan by taking into account this first revision. A temporary is created upon following actions : − − − − − − − − − − − − − − J61334BA - 01 Departure or arrival procedures insertion or modification, New destination selection, Waypoint insertion : next waypoint function or direct insertion, Direct to, Holding pattern insertion or modification, Leg or discontinuity deletion, Discontinuity insertion, Offset insertion or modification, Overfly status modification, Vertical revision : step altitude, altitude constraint, FPA constraint, speed constraint insertion, deletion or modification or step mode modification, RTA modification, Airway insertion, Vertical wind profile revision for a leg: insertion, update or deletion of a wind group, UNDO activation : a temporary flight plan is created with the recovery flight plan. THALES AVIONICS 2010 This document and any data included are the property of Thales Avionics. They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. The temporary flight plan (TMPY) is used to check flight plan modifications before activation. Any revision of a flight plan creates a temporary and multi-revisions are allowed on this temporary before its activation. By default, no temporary FPLN exists. T FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Flight management principles Page 43 As soon as a temporary flight plan is created and as long as this temporary flight plan exists, the EXEC green annunicator is lighting on and the user can activate from any page it by pressing the EXEC key on MCDU. When the active flight plan is sequenced, the temporary flight plan is automatically sequenced if the first leg of the temporary flight plan (which corresponds to an active leg) matches the active leg being sequenced. The temporary flight plan is no longer sequenced when the first leg of the temporary no longer matches the active leg. When a temporary exists, the crew is able to activate it. In such a case, the active flight plan is replaced with the temporary flight plan and then the temporary flight plan is deleted. The temporary flight plan doesn't exist any more until a new temporary flight plan creation. If the FROM of the temporary flight plan is the Turning Point (T-P) and aircraft parameters (position, track, GS, TAS) are not all valid, then the command is rejected with the following scratchpad message: NOT ALLOWED This document and any data included are the property of Thales Avionics. They cannot be reproduced, disclosed or utilized without the company’s prior written approval. When a temporary exists, it can be cancelled in the following cases : − − − − The crew manually cancels the temporary flight plan The crew manually cancels the active flight plan A flight plan initialization is performed directly from the active flight plan A zeroize database is performed In such cases, the temporary flight plan is deleted and is not activated. The temporary flight plan doesn't exist any more until a new temporary flight plan creation. 2.3.2.4 Secondary flight plan The secondary Flight Plan (SEC) is used to: − − − Save the current flight plan for an eventual futur re-engagement, Prepare an alternate flight plan, Prepare a return flight plan or a flight plan to be flown after the current flight plan (and so to double the capacity of the flight plan) The secondary flight plan page can be reached from the primary flight plan by pressing the FPLN Key. The following actions can be done on the secondary flight plan : − − − − − − − THALES AVIONICS 2010 Copy of the active flight plan, Swap with the active flight plan, Activation: secondary FPLN replaces active flight plan, Cancellation: delete the secondary FPLN, Route initialization : FROM/TO, route selection Lateral revisions (except Holding Pattern at PPOS, DIRECT-TO, OFFSET), Vertical revisions.

J61334BA - 01 Page 46 FMS220 - USER'S MANUAL OPERATIONAL PRINCIPLES / Flight management principles T 2.3.3.1 PRAIM The predictive RAIM function allows predicting the availability of the RAIM algorithms at a given fix and a given time through a dedicated protocol between the FMC and the GPS sensor. This capability allows providing the following services: Monitoring the RAIM availability at destination (destination and alternate airport) or at any fix (on request). Verifying automatically the RAIM availability at destination, Final Approach Fix and Missed Approach Point in order to allow the approach using GPS as localization source. Verifying on request the RAIM and/or FDE (Failure Detection and Exclusion) availability and continuity along the flight plan (active or secondary). The calculation principle used to evaluate the RAIM and/or FDE availability along the flight plan is the following: The FMC uses T/O TIME and performances data to compute predictions on the flight plan. The FMC generates the point list to be computed (points located every 5 minutes along the trajectory). The FMC sends PRAIM request to the GPS for each point of the list (at ETA ± 15 minutes) and, according to the chosen prediction criterion, determines the RAIM and/or FDE availability using the request responses. Each prediction criterion is briefly described hereafter: RNAV10 oceanic: FDE shall not be unavailable more than 34 minutes (i.e. 5 consecutive points of the computed list). RNP4: FDE shall not be unavailable more than 25 minutes (i.e. 4 consecutive points) and HIL shall be less than 8 NM for all the flight plan (i.e. each point). RNAV 5-2-1: RAIM shall not be unavailable more than 5 minutes (i.e. each point). RNP1: HIL shall be less than 2 NM for all the flight plan (i.e. each point).

The crew can plan up to two level changes in cruise phase by entering step altitudes in climb (resp. descent). Cruise climb (resp. cruise descent) subsection starts at a step waypoint. In those cases, FMC computes level interception points to locate the place where A/C is predicted to reach the step altitude.

In descent section, the descent profile is computed according to altitude constraints and flight path angle provided by the database or entered by the crew and the default flight path angle. In cruise descent subsection, the descent profile is computed from the default flight path angle. NORMAL DESCENT PROFILE This profile is defined when one or several altitude constraints have been entered by the crew or extracted from the arrival procedure.
