Introduction
The OM.B.A320/A330 is prepared according the Airbus AFM, FCOM, QRH, FCTM
chapters.
Airbus AFM, FCOM, QRH, FCTM are the leading documents for the safe operations
of A320/A330.
Nevertheless, some of the procedures described by Airbus leave some room for
interpretation. In order to ease and smoothen the crew work on the Afriqiyah
Airways A320/A330, we decided to clarify some items in order to:



Harmonize
Simplify
Make it to the common standard for all cockpit crew
AAW has implemented and supports a non‐punitive working culture and
encourages each individual crew member to forward any safety, security, CRM and
flight related irregularities to Flight Operations Department in order to keep flight
standards high.
OMB.A320/A330 will be updated and revised as necessary in accordance with
procedures outlined in OMA 0.2.

1.1.10 Narrow Runway Limitations
In addition to OMB A320.1.1.8.1 for narrow runway limitations refer to FCOM
A320‐PRO‐SPO‐60.
1.1.11 Runway Slope
Refer to FCOM A320‐LIM‐12.
1.1.12 Limitations on Contaminated or Wet Runways
Refer to FCOM A320‐LIM‐12.
1.1.13 Airframe Contamination
Aeroplane performance is certified on the basis of a clean wing. Ice or snow
accretions affects wing performance. When icing conditions on ground are
encountered, and/or when ice accretion is suspected the crew must determine the
conditions when ground de‐icing/anti‐icing is required.
On the underside of the wing tank area, a maximum layer of 3 mm (1/8 in) of frost
will not penalize Take‐Off performance.
For more refer to FCOM A320‐SI‐010, FCOM A320‐PRO‐SUP‐91‐30, OMA 8.2.4.
1.1.13.1
Fuel Tankering
The decision to tank fuel rests with the Commander. Tanking fuel to a
contaminated runway is NOT permitted, within Afriqiyah Airways.
Should tanking be advised on the OFP, it will not restrict the fuel uplift to prevent
the possibility of ice accumulation due to cold soak.
Should the Commander consider this may be a factor when considering the
duration of the flight and ambient conditions, then the recommended landing fuel
to avoid cold soaked induced icing is 4000 kg
The only indication that we have of the skin temperature is that of the fuel
contained within the tanks, even in relatively warm OAT ~10 degrees C ice can
rapidly form on the wings when rain or high humidity conditions exist.
Under such conditions careful checks should be made as the wing may only appear
to be wet.

NORMAL PROCEDURES
2.1 Normal Procedures and Duties
2.1.1 Introduction
Airbus procedures contained in the AFM, FCOM, QRH, FCTM are used as primary
documents for flight procedures. This chapter covers some differences related to
AAW FC duties.
With any procedures, some common sense is needed in their application. For
example, a minor switching action maybe assigned to PF or to PM (e.g. beacon light
or taxi light). However, it is not intended to prohibit the other pilot from using that
switch. It is assigning responsibility for checking that it has been done, and if not,
doing it. As a basic philosophy, operation of any switches or push buttons (e.g.
lights, cabin door, etc.) shall be delegated to PM whenever aeroplane is moving.
2.1.1.1
Use of Checklists
For use of NORMAL CHECKLIST refer to FCOM A320‐PR‐NP‐GEN.
There are some additional items to be used in NORMAL CHECKLIST operations.
Normal checklists are used to verify proper accomplishment of items which may
affect the safety of flight. On completion, PM is to announce “XXXX CHECKLIST
COMPLETED”
Checklists should normally be read by PM.
During checklist reading, both pilots are to verify that the item(s) has been
completed correctly.
“After Landing” checklist is completed silently by CM2 and confirmed to CM1.
In the event of the ECAM memo failure, the “Before Take‐off Check List Down to
the line” and “Landing” checklists memo steps has to be read and checked
2.1.1.2
Flight Deck General
The following general rules should be observed to keep flight deck in good
condition:

Screens are not to be touched with fingers, pens, etc. and are to be
cleaned only with special tissues.

NORMAL PROCEDURES

Nothing metallic or hard is to be placed on the glare shield.

No liquids are to be passed over the pedestal.

No bottle must be disposed on the cockpit floor at any time, neither by
cabin crews nor pilots.

The flight deck is to be kept tidy and any documents used during flight are
to be returned to their designated storage at the end of the flight rotation.

The recommended mode of seat adjustment is electrical.

Sliding tables are to be stowed before 500 ft AGL before Landing and
before line‐up for take‐off.

Radio switches on FCU will never be set to neutral, WX radar brightness
knob will remain full bright and the WX radar antenna must be set full up
before switched OFF.

Select ATC 2 if CM2 is PF in RVSM areas, select ATC mode S before taxi

PB switches are to be handled in a gentle but deliberate manner.
“Stabbing” them often results in no selection or false selection.

Flight control checks are to be carried out in a positive manner without
“slamming” the side stick against the stops (Rudder checks should be
carried
outgentlytoavoidlateralfuselagemovementwhilstcabincrewisconducting
the safety demonstration or checks). Flight control checks should be
carried out in a random manner (starting in different directions) in order
to avoid automatism.

The flight deck door is to be closed and locked from the time the first
engine is started until both engines have been shut down. Entry to the
flight deck after the door has been closed is to be completed in
accordance with procedure described in OMA 10.1.5 (we need some thing
or omit).

The side console waste bin is not to be used for any liquids or food

Smoking is strictly forbidden on the aircraft.

NORMAL PROCEDURES

AAW crews will search constantly for maximum SAFETY, commercial
efficiency and professionalism

The carriage and use of personal unofficial copies of operational
documentation is discouraged, as there is no formal update system for
such items

During ECAM procedures, normal checklists, computer resets, OEB’s/TR’s
should be reviewed or considered before the STS page is read (“STOP
STATUS!”)
2.1.1.3
Control Transfer
“I HAVE CONTROL/MY CONTROLS” are and order/request respectively for the
transfer of control to the other pilot. They also serve as acknowledgement that
control has been accepted following a “YOU HAVE CONTROL/YOUR CONTROLS”
order/request from the other pilot. Likewise, these options may be used as an
acknowledgement that control has been relinquished.
If and unplanned and/or unbriefed take‐over of flight controls is necessary by
either pilot during manual flight, the side stick take‐over pushbutton must be
pressed and held until transfer has been confirmed or for 40 seconds, whichever is
shorter.
No controls inputs are to be made by the non‐handling pilot. Control should not be
transferred below 100 ft AGL.
In manual flight, if the aircraft flight path does not obey pilot inputs at any time,
the take‐over push button is to be pressed and held. If the irregularity continues,
controls to be transferred to the other pilot or the AP engaged.
2.1.1.4
Use of FMGS
Only one pilot is to make MCDU entries at any one time. When selected on, FDs
are to be followed.
PF is not to make any FMGS inputs when at/or below 10000 ft / FL100, except
activation of the approach phase and executing a DIR TO without scrolling.

NORMAL PROCEDURES
Neither pilot should make complex FMGC programming below SSA/MSA, as
appropriate.
“Administrative” tasks in the FMGS, e.g. clearing RAD NAV selections, should be
delegated to PM.
FCU selections should be made monitoring the “demand” on PFD/ND, not by
looking at the “request” on the FCU.
Cost Index is in OFP and should not be increased to make up time. If ATC asks crew
to change MN or speed PF has to go to selected MN/speed without changing of CI.
At the end of flight rotation, waypoints etc. created are to be deleted (DATA > A/C
STATUS)
2.1.1.5
Standard Call
Standard phraseology is essential to ensure effective crew communication. The
phraseology should be concise and exact.
The sterile cockpit philosophy applies below FL100/10000ft. Auto callouts should
not normally be acknowledged.
All armed modes are to be announced by calling out their associated color (blue,
magenta) e.g. “G/S BLUE”, “LOC BLUE”. All active modes are to be announced
without calling out the color (green, white) e.g. “NAV”, “ALT”.
 “CHECK V/S”
When passing 2000ft below/above a target altitude/FL and V/S more than 2000
ft/min ,,CHECK V/S” should be announced by the PM to draw the PF attention to
reducing the rate of climb/descent rate. Should an undesired ALT*occur due to
high climb/descent rate PUSH TO LEVEL OFF should be used to exit ALT* and then
V/S adjusted to a proper target.
 “1000 TO GO”
PM should announce “1000 TO GO” when passing 1000ft above/below a target
FL/altitude and reduces rate to 1000 ft/min. PF should reply “FL XXX/XXXX FEET
BLUE”. If PM does not make the call, PF is to initiate and PM is to reply.

NORMAL PROCEDURES
 “1000 FT”
Passing 1000 ft AAL on an approach, PM is to announce“1000 FT” (if there is no
auto‐ callout) PF is to ensure, that the approach is stabilized.
 “RAD ALT”
“RAD ALT” should be announced by either pilot at the first visual radio altimeter
indication (not in response to auto callout “2500” which may not always occur).
 “500”
Is to be announced by both pilots (incapacitation check).
 “CHECK”
Is a command for the other pilot to check an item?
 “CHECKED”
Is a response that an item has been checked.
 “CROSSCHECKED”
Is a callout verifying information from both pilot stations.
The following commands do not necessarily initiate a guidance mode change, e.g.
selected to managed/managed to selected.
All actions performed on the FCU and MCDU must be checked on the PFD and ND
(e.g. “FL 350 blue”, “FL 200 magenta”). Ensure that the correct FCU knob is used,
and then verify indications on the PFD/ND.
 “SET”
The “SET” command means using an FCU knob to set the value, but not to change
a mode. SET is accomplished by only rotating the appropriate selection knob.
Examples:
 “SET GO‐AROUND ALTITUDE ...”
 “SET QNH ...”
 “SET FL …”
 “SET HDG …”

Headsets shall be worn at all times below FL100 and are recommended to/from
TOC/TOD.
Loudspeaker knobs shall never be reduced below “9 o’clock position”.
121.5 shall be tuned and monitored on VHF 3 from cockpit preparation. It will be
cross checked at FL100 and before entering RVSM airspace. In case of poor
reception on 121.5 volume will be reduced (not below 9 o’clock position”) but with
not being switched off.
In case of any confusion regarding ATC, noises, clutter, first 2 actions: headset on
and radio check with the ATC. In case of no response on the assigned frequency
121.5 MHz must be used immediately to re‐establish the radio communication.
Radio check to be performed, whenever one of the crew members has lost
consciousness about the time that has passed since the last radio call.
2.1.1.8
Crew Coordination and Communication
CREW BRIEFING BEFORE THE FLIGHT
Commander is responsible for crew briefing – preferably done together, in
separate room if available. Briefing should include crew introduction, composition,

reminders and extra information he deems necessary. Elements of good CRM
should be observed. Time should be allowed for questions and answers. All crew
members should take time to state questions or concerns at this time. Correct rest
time must be observed by all crew members – otherwise situation clearly stated to
the commander.
CO‐ORDINATION AND COMMUNICATION ON BOARD
Co‐ordination and communication between the flight deck and cabin crews is
normally between the Commander and SCC. However, in the interests of good
CRM, it is important that all crew members feel able to communicate freely where
necessary. It is particularly important that those cabin crew members working at
the rear of the aircraft call the flight deck directly using the interphone system
when necessary. However, cabin crew must be aware that the flight deck crew are
not linked to the cabin interphone permanently and can take a few seconds to
answer a call.

Before Engine Start
1) SCC reports to CMD “CABIN SECURITY CHECK COMPLETED, CABIN IS
READY FOR BOARDING”
2) SCC asks CMD “MAY WE START BOARDING”
3) SCC reports to CMD correct number of PAX onboard and asks “MAY WE
CLOSE THE DOORS”
4) SCC gives clearance for CC to “DOORS IN FLIGHT”
5) CM2 checks on ECAM proper doors arm position before taxing
6) SCC presses “CABIN READY” on FAP, reports to cockpit “CABIN SECURE”
by Intercom for ONA and ONB.
7) Before entry T/O RWY, PM gives to cabin CC signal to take a seats by using
the seats belts switch (double gong)

CREW DEBRIEFING AFTER FLIGHT
Commander is responsible for crew debriefing. Debriefing should be held in a
separate room if available to give the opportunity to each crew member to raise
concerns or questions about the flight in a confidential, trustful and positive
environment.
TWO PERSONS IN THE COCKPIT
As per regulations requirements to avoid one person in the cockpit CC has to assist
FC when one pilot has to leave cockpit. CMD has to call CC via interphone and ask
to enter the cockpit via standard entry procedure. When CC is in the cockpit one of
the FC could leave the cockpit. FC has to avoid long presence out of the cockpit,
normally for physiological needs only. CC is not needed for assistance if FC in the
cockpit is more than two persons and two person rule is not affected when some

2.1.1.11 Use of Automation
It is AAW policy to make maximum use of automation and managed modes to
reduce workload and enhance flight safety in busy environments and/or in poor
weather.
When suitable conditions exist, manual flying is permitted at the Commander’s
discretion. This must be briefed and agreed forehand.
Use of A/THR is the preferred method, even when flying manually. Manual thrust
may be used for practice in good meteorological conditions. When manual thrust
is intended, it has to be clearly briefed and auto‐thrust disconnect at least 3000 ft
AGL. ILS approach is to be fully stabilized by 1000 ft AAL, either using manual thrust
or auto thrust. (Landing configuration, VAPP/target speed, approach thrust set and
maximum 1 dot deviation from ILS GS). If the approach becomes unstable at any
point below 1000ft, a go‐around must be flown.
Visual approach is to be fully stabilized by 500ft AAL either using manual or auto‐
thrust.
FD’s are to be used for all take‐offs and departures. However, “raw data”
departures may be flown (i.e. using basic navigation modes and manual selections,
but with FD’s on).
FD’s are to be used for all instrument approaches until visual. (“Raw data”
approaches are of limited value, but may be flown occasionally in VMC at the
CMD’s discretion).
In flight, both FDs are to be selected ON/OFF by PM upon PF instruction. The use
of the “Expedite” button is normally not recommended.

Bad weather (on departure or at destination) always results in traffic restrictions,
severe impact on airport’s capacity and subsequent delays. ATC delays due to
traffic congestion might continue for some time after weather clearance.
Consequently, weight limitations allowing, decision for extra‐fuel carriage should
always be considered.

have different actual (on E/WD) and planned FOB up to ±200 kg. If difference more
than ±200 kg LMC has to be filled. When Loadsheet calculations are completed
both pilots should cross check EFB results. Commander is to check load and trim
sheet thoroughly.

CM1 reads ZFWCG and ZFW to CM2 who enters them into INIT B.

CM2 enters FOB (E/WD), reads TOW and LW from MCDU.
For Take‐Off performance calculation refer to OM.EFB.1.3. If Loadsheet was
calculated by Ground Handling enter TOW in subsequent format “XYZ” (rounded in
to higher side). When Take‐Off performances are calculated both pilots should
cross check EFB results. PM reads CONF, THRUST (Flex/TOGA), V1, VR, V2, ENG OUT
ACC, the PF enters data to the MCDU PERF page. PM writes speeds, configuration,
FLEX RTOW and EOSID on OFP from EFB. If crew expects runway change for take‐
off, all possible runways shall be calculated to prepare in advance. Also refer to
OMA 8.1.10 for OFP.

Flight Crew Briefing ‐Departure
Normally briefing has to be accomplished when all preparations, calculations are
completed, and clearance received (except when clearance ATC gives during taxi).
Briefing should be completed before departure and be concise and relevant; Not
to cover information that is not valid; Not cover FCU and/or EFIS control panels
unless very specific selections are needed (e.g. some unserviceability); Not repeat
items unnecessarily (e.g. performance data if just checked, inserted and verified by
both pilots). PF should brief SID from FMGC (with ND on PLAN, CSTR selected) and
PM should verify the information using the SID chart.
Before start of briefing PF asks PM to CHECK his settings to justify any unclear entry
Pages of INIT‐A, PROGRESS, FUEL PREDICT and SEC FLT PLN to be checked
individually.

2.1.4 Altimeter Setting and Checking
Altimeter subscale settings are to be coordinated by PF using the calls “SET STD”
or “SET QNH XXXX” as appropriate. PM is to verify that settings on both PFD are
the same and respond “STD (QNH XXXX) SET, CROSSCHECKED, PASSING FL XXX
(XXXX FEET) NOW”. PF is to answer “CHECKED”.
CM1 is to set the ISIS.
2.1.5 Taxi
For taxi procedures CM1 is always PF additionally refer to FCOM A320‐PRO‐NOR‐
SOP‐10.
In addition, there are some procedures below.
For EFB handling during taxi refer to OM.EFB.1.4.
CM2 requests taxi when instructed, confirms his side is clear.
If taxi after start requires an immediate sharp turn‐out, the preferred method for
dispatch is pushback whenever it is available. Sharp turns cause excessive tire wear
and can damage the sidewalls.
If ATC clearance is issued during taxi, CM2 calls “Ready to copy” only when clear of
MAYon, or before taxi was started and after coordinating with CM1.
On the first flight of the day, and when conditions dictate (e.g. after de‐icing), brake
check should be conducted as soon as practicable.
Taxi speed is to be limited to maximum of a 25 kts in a straight line (may be higher
backtracking runways but particular attention must be paid to high speed taxiing
prior Take Off as this can result in High Brake Temperature and induce significant
delay); 15 kts on normal taxiway turns, 10 kts in active MAYons; <10 kts for 90°
turns.
Brake applications should be kept to a minimum, commensurate with safe
operations. (e.g. On a straight taxiway, allow aircraft to accelerate to 25 kts, then
use a single brake application to reduce to 10 kts before allowing the aircraft to
accelerate again. Do not ride the brakes unnecessarily).
On “straight” taxiways, rudder should be used for nose wheel steering.

Differential thrust should not be used except for immediate sharp turn out from
parking stand.
Flight control checks should normally be made during taxi. CM2 is to monitor F/CTL
SD page and announce full deflection when they are reached, while PF
concentrates on taxiing safely. Flight control checks should be carried out in a
random manner (starting in different directions) in order to avoid automatism.
It is recommended, that in the event of delayed or short taxi, F/CTL checks may be
completed before taxiing.
CM1 smoothly selects full deflection of each control in each direction in turn, CM2
verifies full deflection and announces (for announcement see table below).
CM1 must hold full deflection of each control in turn, until it is announced by CM2.
CM2 must follow pedal movement with his feet.
CM2 completes his own control check silently (monitoring F/CTL, not side stick PFD
deflections).
When finished with F/CTL checks, CM2 selects PWS, A/BRK MAX, when cabin is
ready, pushes T/O CONFIG for aircraft with no CABIN READY indication on TO
MEMO. Sets RADAR ON and tilt up initially 4 deg.
CM1 requests “Before Takeoff CL Down to the Line”, CM2 reads.
If a re‐clearance is received during taxi, CM2 inserts new departure route in FMGS.
If required, calculates new takeoff performance and inserts new performance data
in MCDU PERF page. At the holding point PF reviews the new clearance and briefs
it to PM.
Briefing “CONFIRMED” means that PERF page is checked with appropriate
performance inserted for appropriate runway; FPL page selected on PM MCDU
with appropriate route/SID; Initial altitude checked on PFD; ATC code (squawk) set.
Before take‐off, PM recycles SEAT BELTS sign. It is a signal for CC to be seated for
take‐off.
Prior to crossing any RWY ensure that you have clearance to cross. Visually check
to ensure that there is no conflicting traffic prior to crossing any RWY and CM1

Additional Procedures during LVO Taxi
AAW is NOT LVO approved presently
Strict respect of the following points (basic airmanship) is essential to maintain an
acceptable level of safety during LVO taxi.
ATC taxi instructions must be received when both pilots are monitoring the control
frequency. Carefully acknowledge and note taxi instructions. Any doubt must be
immediately solved.
Before taxi or resuming taxi, the flight crew must review and agree on the intended
routing according ATC instruction.
While taxiing, maintaining outside situation awareness remains the absolute
priority: cockpit‐flows, flight control checks and CL should always be completed
aircraft stopped (before/after taxi or at holding positions).
Keep taxi speeds so as to allow for sudden reduction in visibility and full stop
capacity within a few meters. Challenge your perception of speed by checking
ground speed on ND and checking visually laterally your speed.
During taxi, use all aircraft lights but be prepared to switch off any light that
restricts visibility due to glare. Do not use strobes unless occupying a runway.
When approaching a runway, ensure to stop and hold before the CAT II/III holding
point (some airports are still missing stop bars).
At any time, if you have a doubt about your position, your clearance, or an
unexpected obstacle, stop and inform ATC. Ask ATC for help/guidance (FOLLOW
ME car can always be requested).
NOTE: There is no formal restriction on RVR for taxi

Preparation for Low Visibility Approach
AAW is NOT LVO approved presently
Many malfunctions might degrade the landing capability. At any stage of the flight,
and before starting a low visibility approach, the crew must clearly know what is
the expected landing capability and limitations of the airplane. Once landing
capability has been determined during flight preparation, the effect on landing
capability of any airplane technical defect/malfunction occurring after start‐up
must be precisely investigated using MEL (aircraft on ground, before take‐off),
STATUS PAGE and QRH A320. OPS.08A (required equipment for CAT II/III) jointly.
CM1 is always a PF during LVO approaches. Any PF/PM role changes should be
done before reachingFL100.
A proper LVO approach briefing takes time and must be anticipated in order to be
completed before TOD. The briefing is performed based on latest available weather
information (ACARS‐VOLMET) and performed using the LVO Checklist (attached on
the Normal Checklist (AAW don’t have)
When latest WX information received confirm consistency between actual
conditions with prepared operations (briefing). In case of any significant change,
do not rush, ask for delaying vectors or holding; always be fully ready and apply
silent cockpit rule below FL100. Both pilots head‐up and concentrated on radio
watch (LVO means dense traffic around); any known unserviceability of airport
equipment must be checked against OMA 8.1.3.5.6. (Failed Or Downgraded

2.1.10.2 Crew Coordination
When calling for the final flap selection, it should normally be followed
immediately by the instruction “LANDINGCHECKLIST”.
PM is to call “100 ABOVE” and “MINIMUM” when appropriate.
PM will monitor approach and go head‐up occasionally, announcing “VISUAL”,
“APPROACH LIGHTS”, etc. as appropriate.
PF judges visual cues, announces “CONTINUE” if appropriate and continues
approach, scanning in and out.
If MDA/DA/DH is reached without sufficient visual reference, PF is to execute a go‐
around immediately, announcing “GO‐AROUND, FLAPS”.
The TO light has to be turned ON when Landing clearance is received (as reminder).

2.1.10.3 Guidelines for Stabilized Approach
For more refer to FCOM A320‐PR‐NP‐SOP‐160.
The key for stabilization is energy management. It is not possible to descent and to
reduce speed simultaneously. In level flight, it takes1NMtoreducespeedby10kts.
ATC speed request (220kts e.g.) may not be suitable. Crew must be aware that ATC
controllers are not familiar with the energy management of the aircraft. Crew may
request a different speed if required. When regulated “high and fast” consider
“Flaps 2, selected speed 190 kts” before descending to keep speed under control
and obtain high descent profile. When intercepting glide slope or final descent path
the configuration must be at least Flaps 2. When intermediate altitude is below
1800 ft AGL, configuration must be Flaps 3, Gear Down.
In order to be stabilized by 1000 ft AGL, configuration must be anticipated by at
least 200ft.
Go‐around is mandatory if an approach, is not fully stabilized by 1000 ft AGL. Using
Autopilot and Auto Thrust speed may be stabilized the latest at 500 FT AGL.
For visual approach the latest stabilization altitude is 500 ft AGL.

TASK SHARING
APU is recommended to be switched ON during FL100 checks. Task sharing, and
callouts are standard until passing 1000ft AAL.
Below 1000ft AAL, CM2 must remain head‐down (until end of rollout) and
continuously monitor instruments, being ready to immediately announce any
deviations, downgrade or failure.
MONITORING FLIGHT MODE ENGAGEMENT
LAND Engages at approximately 350ft and is announced by CM1 (and X‐checked by
CM2). In case the mode fails to engage, at 300ft RA, “NO LAND” has to be positively
announced by CM1 or CM2.
FLARE Normally engages at 40ft and is announced by CM2. In case the mode fails
to engage, at 30ft RA, “NO FLARE” has to be positively announced by CM2.
ROLLOUT Normally engages at main wheels touchdown and is announced by CM2.
In case the mode fails to engage, at nose gear touchdown “NO ROLLOUT” has to
be positively announced by CM2.
AP Has to be positively announced by CM2 if AP is still ENGAGED (confirmed on
FMA) when CM1 starts the maneuver to vacate the runway after auto‐rollout
(aircraft leaving the centerline); Nose gear on ground in case a manual rollout was
briefed; The radio‐altimeter shows 100ft RA if CM1 decided to continue the landing
(“CONTINUE”) after loss of autoland capability (CAT 1 on FMA) (CM1 should
normally disconnect at 160ft RA); immediately after the call “Continue” if CM1
decided to continue the landing after activation of the AUTOLAND red

MANAGEMENT OF ABNORMAL AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES DURING

In case of failure of aircraft system, instrument, or element of the FMGS during a
LVO approach, continuation or interruption of the approach depends on the nature
of the failure and the point of its occurrence.

Failure occurring prior Passing 1000 ft AGL on Final
If a failure/downgrade occurs prior to passing 1000ft AGL, decision to continue the
approach, to request delaying action (holding–delaying vectors) or to start an
immediate diversion is at Commander’s discretion. The proper response depends
on:
1.
The expected impact of the malfunction on the landing capability versus
minima and actual weather conditions; AND
2.
The expected time to be fully ready to resume the approach (applies if the
proper landing capability for the prepared approach might be recovered)
In any case, to continue the LVO approach below 1000 ft AAL, all the following
conditions should be fulfilled:
1.
Failure management procedures [ECAM – RESETS – CL] completed
2.
Status of the aircraft, especially its landing capability after management
of failure re‐assessed and, when applicable, corresponding adequate
landing minima inserted in MCDU
3.
Approach briefing amended taking into account the new situation

Failure Occurring Below 1000 ft AGL on Final
The necessity of interrupting the approach as documented in the following
paragraphs always depends on actual visual references. Whatever the situation, in
case visual references at the moment of the occurrence are sufficient and flying
conditions such that a visual manual landing can be safely performed, continuation
of the approach remains always an option and a crew decision. In that case, CM1
must announce: “CONTINUE”.
If the malfunction affects either the landing capability, instruments or navigation
systems (especially in case of activation of the AUTOLAND red warning), CM1 must
immediately disconnect the autopilot and take over manually and visually the
remaining part of the approach and landing, if no visual reference, go‐around has
to be performed.
Perform the landing manually using external visual references only, if no visual
references are established go‐around has to be made.

Master Warning Below 1000 ft AGL
In case of Master Warnings below 1000 AAL (except AP OFF), continuation or
interruption of the approach and autoland remains crew decision. In most cases
(SMOKE – FIRE – ENG OIL – CAB PR) the adequate response is continuation of the
approach and action on failure/malfunction after landing.

Downgrade in Landing Capability
The first pilot identifying a change in landing capability announces the new
capability as shown on FMA (i.e.: “CAT2”). In case the new capability is below the
required capability for the prepared and briefed approach CM1 orders and
completes ago‐around.
NOTE: For instance, if crew prepared and briefed CAT II approach with the
associated minima and experiences landing capability downgrade below 1000ft
from CAT III DUAL OR SINGLE to CAT II approach may be continued.

Failure of Auto Flight Mode Engagement
1) NO LAND MODE
Land mode engages around 350ft RA. In case of no engagement at 300ft
RA, “NO LAND” must be announced by CM1 (or CM2 if no CM1 call).
Autoland process must be interrupted (landing capability degrades toCAT
I and AP may disconnect)
2) NO FLARE MODE
Flare mode engages around 40 ft RA. In case of no engagement at 30 ft
RA, “NO FLARE” is announced by CM2. Autoland process must be
interrupted (AP may disconnect).
3) NO ROLL OUT MODE
Auto‐rollout mode engages at main wheel touchdown. In case of no
engagement at nose‐wheel touchdown, “NO ROLLOUT” is announced by
CM2. Autoland process (auto‐rollout) must be interrupted.

Autoland Warning
The AUTOLAND red warning flashes in LAND mode when the RA is below 200 FT
and one or more of the following conditions occur:
1) The aircraft gets too far off the beam
A. Excessive deviation in LOC (1/4 dot above 15 FTRA)
B. Excessive deviation in GS (1 dot above 100 FT RA). LOC and GS scales
flash on PFD
2) Both APs fail
3) Both localizer transmitters or receiver fail above 15 FTRA
4) Both glide‐slope transmitters or receiver fail above 100 FTRA
5) Difference between both RA indications greater than 15FT
In any case, the autoland process must be interrupted (AP may disconnect). If
immediately identified by CM1, he should immediately clearly order either
“CONTINUE” (disconnect AP and perform manually the landing using only visual
references) or “GO‐AROUND FLAPS” and perform ago‐around.
If no immediately identified by CM1. CM2 must, without delay, positively announce
“AUTOLAND WARNING”.

ABNORMAL AND EMERGENCY PROCEDURES
3.1 Flight Deck Procedures
Provided the nominated sector PF has the appropriate instrumentation available
and is not incapacitated, no role change should occur for any abnormal or
emergency situation. However, this is subject to the Commander’s discretion and
authority for particular events.
Abnormal and emergency procedures frequently require a high degree of CRM. It
is recognized that it may not always be possible to follow the task sharing
philosophies used during normal operations. However, the crew should adhere as
closely as possible to normal procedures. For guidance regarding urgency or
distress refer to OMA 12.12.3 and OMA 12.12.4.
3.1.1 Abnormal and Emergency Callouts

“I HAVE CONTROL AND COMMUNICATION” is commanded by PF when
required.

“CLEAR … (title of the system)?” is asked by the PM for confirmation by
the PF, that all actions have been taken/reviewed on the present ECAM
WARNING/CAUTION or SYSTEM PAGE. e.g. “CLEAR HYDRAULIC?”

“CLEAR … (title of the system)” is the command by the PF that the action
and review is confirmed. For status page “REMOVE STATUS” will be used.

“ECAM ACTIONS COMPLETED” is the announcement by the PM that all
applicable actions have been completed.

Should the PF require any action from the PM during ECAM procedures,
the order “STOP ECAM” will be used. When ready to resume the ECAM
the order “CONTINUE ECAM” will be used.
The aim of such callouts is to callout the appropriate procedure by calling out, in
most cases, the title of the procedure. This will allow the crew to be aware of the
situation and be prepared to properly react (crew coordination, task sharing and
communication).

3.2 Abnormal Emergency Crew Coordination
3.2.1 Operations Manual Cabin Crew
All pilots should be familiar with the content of the Operations Manual Cabin Crew
in order to understand what actions are expected by them and of them. An
emergency can occur at any time and may result in either a PREPARED or an
UNPREPARED crash landing or ditching. Flight Crew actions will have to depend on
the time available and no published procedure can ever be guaranteed to cover
any eventuality.
3.2.2 Door Numbering
AAW Cabin Crew are trained to use a door numbering system which includes all
exits. Thus, the forward doors are 1L and 1R, the over wing exits are 2 and 3 L and
R, the rear doors are 4L and 4R.
3.2.3 NITS Briefing
In the event of an incident or emergency when time permits, the Commander is to
brief the SCC on the situation using the following format:

Nature of the emergency

Intentions (crash landing, ditching, diversion, continue, etc.)

Time remaining before landing

Special instructions
Briefing may also be given in the WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, SPECIAL format.
In the special instructions the Commander is to clearly instruct the SCC whether to
prepare the cabin for normal or emergency landing.

3.2.4 Emergency Calls (On‐Ground)
On the ground, e.g. following an RTO or crash landing, the following calls are to be
made using the PA system. Each call is to be repeated:

“ATTENTION CREW! AT STATIONS”
This call is to alert the crew. Following this command the cabin crew will proceed
as follows:
1) If circumstances are not evident whether an evacuation is required or not:
they will wait 2 minutes, then SCC calls the cockpit to seek information
from flight deck crew.
2) If it is evident that the evacuation is necessary (e.g. uncontrollable fire,
dense smoke, severe structural damage, unusual cabin attitude, ditching):
cabin crew will start evacuation which will be “assisted” by the flight deck
crew, starting the evacuation signals with the EVAC switch on the
overhead panel.

“REMAIN SEATED”
This call is to instruct the cabin crew that an evacuation will not be required; the
SCC will proceed to the flight deck for further instructions.

“EVACUATE”
This call is to order an evacuation.
NOTE: The Commander should not normally specify the direction of evacuation
but should allow the cabin crew to assess the usability of their designated exits.

3.2.5 Emergency Calls (in the Air)
Whenever possible, to avoid alarming passengers unnecessarily, the SCC should be
called to the flight deck using the normal crew call functions. However, if an urgent
need to brief the SCC arises, the Commander should make a PA announcement:
“PURSER TO THE COCKPIT”
For an emergency situation requiring immediate action by all crew members (e.g.
stowage of service trolleys etc.), the EMER CALL button should be used. (This
causes a triple Hi‐Lo chime and flashing crew call lights in the cabin and an
EMERGENCY CALL message on Attendant Information Panels).
During the final stages of approach to a crash landing, ditching or emergency
landing (when the Commander considers it appropriate), the following calls are to
be made from the flight deck using the PA system. Each call is to be repeated:

“EMERGENCY STATIONS”
This call is made when passing about 2000 ft AGL/ASL to instruct the cabin crew to
take their assigned emergency seating positions.

“BRACE FOR IMPACT”
This call is made when passing 500 ft AGL/ASL
3.2.6 Emergency Descent
When the aircraft has reached safe altitude following an emergency descent, the
flight deck crew shall announce “PURSER TO THE COCKPIT “. The SCC shall enter
the flight deck to report cabin status. This is the signal that all cabin crews can
remove their oxygen masks and resume procedure after emergency call.
Commander is to give NITS briefing.

4.1.1 Introduction
Afriqiyah Airways operates Performance class an aeroplanes. And company
aeroplanes are operated in accordance with AIR‐OPS.PART‐CAT‐SUBPART C‐
SECTION 1‐CHAPTER 2.
Afriqiyah Airways ensures that the mass of the aeroplane at the start of the Take‐ Off
or, in the event of In‐Flight Re‐Planning; at the point from which the revised
Operational Flight Plan applies, is not greater than the mass at which the
requirements of the AIR‐OPS.PART‐CAT‐SUBPART C‐SECTION 1‐CHAPTER 2 can be
complied with for the flight to be undertaken, allowing for expected reductions in
mass as the flight proceeds and uses for this Take‐Off and Landing runway analysis
as well route planning system, depressurization and drift down procedures in
terrain sensitive areas.
Afriqiyah Airways ensures that the approved performance data are used to
determine compliance with the requirements of the AIR‐OPS.PART‐CAT‐SUBPART
C‐SECTION 1‐CHAPTER 2. Afriqiyah Airways for performance calculations uses SCAP
(Standard Computerized Airplane Performance) or electronic Airplane Flight
Manual in other words.
The premium and sole source for Take‐Off and Landing performance calculations is
the Electronic Flight Bag (EFB).
Afriqiyah Airways and her contracted performance provider AIB meets the
following requirements when determining the maximum permitted Take‐Off mass
when using EFB for Take‐Off calculations:

The accelerate‐stop distance must not exceed the accelerate‐stop
distance available

The take‐off distance must not exceed the take‐off distance available,
with a clearway distance not exceeding half of the take‐off run available

The take‐off run must not exceed the take‐off run available

Compliance with this paragraph must be shown using a single value of V1
for the rejected and continued take‐off

On a wet or contaminated runway, the take‐off mass must not exceed that
permitted for a take‐off on a dry runway under the same conditions.

Obstruction limited weight – the maximum weight at which obstruction
clearance required by the appropriate airworthiness rules can be attained.
The obstruction limit weight is a function of aircraft configuration,
obstacle height and distance, airport elevation, temperature, and wind.
Unless otherwise stated, all take‐off assume a straight out take‐off flight
path along the extended runway center line

Brake energy – the maximum weight at which the aircraft brakes can
absorb the amount of energy required to stop the aircraft

Tire speed – the maximum weight so as not to exceed the maximum tire
speed limitations.
The following are taken into Takeoff/Landing Performance calculations:

The pressure altitude at the aerodrome

The ambient temperature at the aerodrome

The runway surface condition and the type of runway surface

The runway slope in the direction of take‐off/landing

Not more than 50 % of the reported head‐wind component or not less
than 150 % of the reported tailwind component

The loss, if any, of runway length due to alignment of the aeroplane prior
to take‐off

a full stop landing from 50 ft above the threshold within 60 % of the
landing distance available (LDA)
For dispatching the aeroplane OCD has to assume that the aeroplane will land on
the most favorable runway, in still air and the aeroplane will land on the runway
most likely to be assigned, considering the probable wind speed and direction, the
ground handling characteristics of the aeroplane and other conditions such as
landing aids and terrain.

Most of Runways has straight out OEI procedure. It is visible on the AIB Take‐Off
app 1st page. Procedure means that FC should climb on extended RW heading till
1500 ft AGL and then make Right/Left turn to the aerodrome facility (VOR, NDB,
RNAV point) for available holding or immediate landing procedure. FC should
consider that they need to continue climbing while turning to the published MSA.
It is strongly recommended to use ATC for particular sector MSA as well. MSA

FLIGHT PLANNING
5.1 Data and Instructions for Pre‐Flight and In‐Flight Planning
The primary source for flight planning is the Operational Flight Plan. OFP should be
prepared for each flight. For additional information crew should refer to A320‐PER‐
FPL; QRH A320‐IFP‐PER and OMA 8.1.10.
5.1.1 One Engine Inoperative Case
In case of One Engine Inoperative maximum distance to an adequate
aerodrome is 400 NM (no wind factor, for planning) to land within 60 minutes,
speed for planning is TAS 400kts. For more details refer to QRH A320‐IFP‐PER‐
L. When using QRH table for calculations remember that time with OEI is
limited to 60 minutes.
For take‐off alternate planning use 60 min radius rule and distance up to 250
NM (no wind), long range speed.
5.2
Methods of Fuel Calculations
Primary source of fuel calculations and checks is the Operational Flight Plan.
Additionally, pilots can check OFP calculations using FCOM A320‐PER‐FPL tables.
The methods of proper fuel calculations are described in OMA 8.1.7/8.3.7.

MASS AND BALANCE
6.1 Introduction and Instructions for Calculations
The primary and source for mass and balance calculations is the EFB program AIB
Loadsheet.
For normal procedures to calculate the Loadsheet refer to OM.EFB.0.6.3.6. For
abnormal procedures refer to OM.EFB.2.2.4.3.
When exporting the Loadsheet via e‐mail there is no copy left on board. To have
copy on board for inspections and to confirm that Loadsheet is well dispatched, FC
has to add aircraft e‐mail to the list of loadsheet receivers (add aircraft e‐mail
address in copy).
Once e‐mail with Loadsheet is dispatched successfully, the copy will appear on e‐
mail inbox, indicating that LS dispatched successfully.
6.1.1 Last Minute Changes
Max LMC is +/‐ 500 kg fuel and/or payload.
For LMC procedure refer to OM.EFB.0.6.3.6

6.2 Limiting Masses and CG
Normally for Loadsheet calculation limiting weights maximum structural weights
defined by manufacture. But in some cases MTOW could be limited by
performance, MEL etc. in that case on the AIB Loadsheet app FC could enter new
limiting weight value in the LIMITING WEIGHTS window. For CG limits refer to the
AIB Loadsheet app or AHM.A320.

Halon Fire Extinguisher (BCF)
10.7.1 Technical Characteristics
The BCF (Bromo Chlorodi Fluoromethane) exists in the container as a liquid, and is
pressurized with nitrogen.
When the trigger is activated, the BCF is discharged through a nozzle. It may be
used to a range of 1‐2 m. Fire extinguishers may be of different volume, ranging
from 1 kilogram to 3 kilograms, thus they operate for different time, and average
time is 10‐13 seconds. Pressure indicator may be at the top or at the bottom of the
bottle shows the pressure inside of the bottle. Pressure indicator operates in
clockwise direction. If needle does not reach green range ‐ the extinguisher is
empty. All extinguishers are protected from unintended pressing of lever. A safety
pin with a pull ring prevents accidental trigger movement. The most common pins
are ring type, however there are also collapsible pins. When such pin is broken
(bent), the seal (intact seal shows that extinguisher has not been used before) is
broken.
The extinguisher is effective on all types of fires, but primarily on electrical, fuel
and grease fires.

10.10 Protective Breathing Equipment (PBE)
The PBE is a closed circuit breathing apparatus designed to help protect the wearer
eyes and respiration in case of smoke, or other harmful gases.
The PBE envelopes the head in a breathable atmosphere by a demand based
chemical air regeneration system, which supplies oxygen and removes carbon
dioxide and water vapor from the exhalation. The chemical processes produce heat
and a heat build‐up within the PBE during use is normal.
The duration of the PBE depending on type is approximately 15–20 min. for the
heaviest workload.

CAUTION: If the bag did not blow up, the starter could not be activated. The
equipment can, however, also be started with increased breathing resistance by
inhaling some deep breaths through the anti‐suffocation valve in the mask. The
breathing gas in that case will be taken from the hood, to fill the breathing bag
sufficiently, the breathing hose shall be closed during inhalation. If the volume of
the hood is empty lift the neck seal. Open breathing hose and exhale into the unit.
Repeat the procedure until the breathing bag is filled.
WARNING: Before you start the above procedure make sure that the unit has not
been used before.
10.10.1.3
Recommendations

Avoid physical effort. With a lower respiration frequency the OXYCREW
protection will last longer.

During operation the air will be warmed up. This is due to the chemical
reaction within the KO2 cartridge and it is quite normal.

A slightly salty or dusty taste may occur, which may derive from particles
from the cartridge and which will not impair the function of the OXYCREW.

If the user or somebody else leans upon the breathing bag during the use
of the equipment, the expiration will be harder and the user expires into
the hood. This situation has to be stopped immediately, as otherwise the
oxygen reserve will run out and the CO2 share will increase, especially
when the user inhales the air from the hood. This design feature is built in
to let the user feel that this situation should not last longer than a few
seconds.

The OXYCREW has to be handled with care. The contact with peaked
objects and obstacles has to be avoided.

The increased respiration resistance and temperature indicates the end of
the operating time. In this case the anti‐suffocation valve opens and the

System Functional Description and Operation
TRANSMISSION
The transmitter can be activated either automatically when the crash occurs or
manually. The transmitter is designed to transmit on two frequencies (121.5 and
406 MHz). The 121.5 MHz is mainly used for homing in the final stages of the rescue
operations. The 406 MHz frequency is used by the COSPAS‐SARSAT satellites for
precise pinpointing and identification of the aircraft in distress.
Once activated, the transmitter operates continuously on 121.5 MHz. During
operations, a digital message is transmitted on 406.037 MHz every 50 seconds.
CONTROLS and CONNECTORS
The following controls are to be found on the ELT front panel (from left to right):

3‐position switch ARM/OFF/ON;

Visual indicator (red);

DIN 12 socket for connection to an optional Remote Control Panel, a
programming dongle, dongle IF GPS RS232 or a programming equipment;


WORKING MODE INFORMATION
The ELT has 4 different modes:

OFF

Self‐test (temporary mode)

Armed (standby mode to enable automatic activation by the shock sensor
or by an optional remote control panel)

ON (transmission)
Transmission is effective if the beacon is activated (either manually on the ELT
control panel, automatically by the shock sensor, or remotely by the "ON" switch
of an optional remote control panel when connected).
 OFF
The ELT is off when the switch is in position "OFF", no part of the ELT is energized.
This mode must only be selected when the ELT is removed from the aircraft or
when the aircraft is parked for a long period or for maintenance.
 Self‐Test
The self‐test mode is a temporary mode (max duration 15 sec) in which the ELT
checks the main characteristics of the transmitter (Battery voltage, Programming)
and enables digital communication with programming and test equipment. This
mode is selected:
1) When switching from "OFF" to "ARM";
2) When switching to "RESET / TEST" on an optional Remote Control
 Armed
In order to enable activation by the G‐Switch or with an optional Remote Control
Panel, the ELT must be in standby mode with the switch in the "ARM" position. This
mode is mandatory during flight. The ELT should remain in the "ARM" position
except when the aircraft is parked for a long period or for maintenance.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION PROCEDURES
11.1
Instructions for Emergency Evacuation
The Commander shall order the Cabin Crew to have the passenger cabin prepared
for an emergency landing when any of the following abnormal or emergency
situations occur or is expected to occur:

Partial or gear up landings

Ditching

Landings on unprepared ground

Uncontrollable engine or fuselage fires

Uncontrollable electrical smoke or fire

Loss of all engines
An evacuation could be expected following these scenarios. Landing with a flat tire
could in rare cases lead to an evacuation if the tire rupture leads to other damages,
such as a fuel leak.
Normally it is not considered necessary to prepare the cabin for an emergency
landing during the following situations:

Single engine landings

Flaps UP landings (All or partial)
Even though an emergency situation is declared during single engine operation, it
is expected that, under normal circumstances, a safe landing will be made.
If an evacuation is planned and time permits, a thorough briefing and preparation
of the crew and passengers improve the chances of a successful evacuation.
Reseating of passengers may be considered. Able bodied passenger should be
briefed about the over wing exits. Flight deck preparations should include a review
of pertinent checklists and any other actions to be accomplished. Appropriate use
of autobrakes should be discussed.
Refer to QRH A320‐C2 for evacuation checklist.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION PROCEDURES
11.2
Emergency Evacuation Procedures
The goal of an evacuation is to evacuate all occupants safely within the available
time window. The evacuation is initiated after the decision to evacuate has been
taken. For unplanned evacuations, the Commander needs to analyze the situation
carefully before initiating an evacuation order. A certain decision time is needed.
Quick actions in a calm and methodical manner improve the chances of a successful
evacuation.
The evacuation time is the time it takes to evacuate all occupants. The evacuation
time is greatly affected by pre‐briefing of able bodies, exit availability, passenger
behavior and the actions of the crew during the evacuation. A thorough briefing of
able bodied passengers at the over wing exits will reduce the evacuation time since
well‐briefed passengers will respond faster when opening the over wing exits.
In any unprepared emergency the reaction of the cabin crewmembers will depend
largely on their situational awareness skills. The ability to identify an abnormal
situation and react accordingly. Time lost during the initial part of the evacuation
can never be recovered.
Once a decision to evacuate is made, the crew must decide which exits to use in
evacuating the aeroplane. In an ideal situation, all exits would be used to get
passengers off the aeroplane as quickly as possible; however, this ideal is very
rarely achieved because:

Exits are blocked by obstacles or by hazards such as fire or smoke

Doors or slides malfunction
 Weather conditions prevent the immediate use of a slide
In the event of fire or smoke flight crew should not limit the use of any exits or
make PA announcements indicating particular exits to use but leave this decision
to the cabin crew and able bodied passengers. Limiting the number of exits used
during an evacuation can have a dramatic effect on evacuation times, especially if
one of the other exits or slides fails.

EMERGENCY EVACUATION PROCEDURES
The availability of various exits may differ for each situation. Cabin crew must
monitor outside conditions and make the decision as to which exits are available
for the circumstances. All available exits should be used. Exit availability may
change during the evacuation.
In a study approximately one‐quarter of accidents had door or slide malfunctions.
Cabin Crew should therefore be prepared to help colleagues with jammed exits or
the need for manual inflation of slides. Redirect passengers to other exits as
needed.
Refer to following table for flight crew procedures during the evacuation:
