Book Description
This book is developed using material and pilot training notes including official Airbus FCOM, FCTM and the QRH to allow Pilots to study as a refresher or prepare for their command upgrade. It covers failure management, ECAM, Airbus memory item drills, complex and demanding failures, technical reviews on systems, limitations, low visibility procedures, RVSM/PBN, MEL/CDL and supplementary information covering cold weather and icing, windshears, weather and wake turbulence. The memory item drills include: Loss of braking, Emergency descent, Stall recovery, Stall warning at lift-off, Unreliable airspeed, GPWS/EGPWS warnings and cautions, TCAS warnings and Windshears. The complex and demanding failure chapter goes in depth with failures such as: Dual Bleed faults, Smoke/Fumes cases, Dual FMGC failure, Engine malfunctions of all levels, Fuel leak, Dual Hydraulic faults, Landing gear problems, Rejected takeoff and evacuation, Upset preventions and much more. Technical revision gives a good study highlight for all the Airbus A320 systems including Air conditioning, Ventilation and Pressurisation, Electrical, Hydraulics, Flight-Controls and Automation, Landing gear, Pneumatics, etc. The later chapters of the book covers useful topics such as aircraft limitations, low visibility procedures, RVSM/PBN, MEL, CDL and other supplementary information such as cold weather and icing, turbulence and windshears in more detail. The book will no doubt be a great asset to any trainee or existing Airbus Pilot for both revision and training purposes including refresher training.
