1.2. Course Objectives


The main objective of this course is to present the AIRBUS performance documentation: Flight Crew Operating Manual, FCOM. To do so, the following will be reviewed: Basic regulations, Aircraft performance. By the end of this course, you will know: What kind of information you can get in the AIRBUS documentation, Where to find this information, How to use the information. More particularly, you will know: How to determine the Max. TOW and the corresponding speeds, How to determine the "Flexible Temperature" (or assumed temperature).

6.1. Example 1: MTOW


PURPOSE
What is the maximum permissible takeoff weight and associated speeds?

LFPO ATIS
Provides the following data: Takeoff runway Runway condition Wind calm Temperature QNH : 51C : 1003 hPA : 08 : DRY

AIRCRAFT STATUS: A320-214


MTOW Structure: 75.5 T Takeoff Configuration: Optimum Air conditioning : ON Total Anti-ice : OFF

Step 1 - Refer to RTOW


Enter the table Wind 0 / Temperature 51C. Read 74 200 kg for Conf 1 + F, 74 100 kg for Conf 2, and 74 100 kg for Conf 3.

Step 2 - Corrections Influence of delta pressure


QNH : -10 hPA. Read (-0.8 T) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3. Read (V1 = 0, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3.

Step 3 - Correct the weights


Conf 1 + F 74 200 - 800 = 73 400 kg. Conf 2 74 100 - 800 = 73 300 kg. Conf 3 72 700 - 800 = 73 300 kg.

Step 4 Find the speeds


Conf 1 + F 73 400 kg. V1 = 156 - 0 = 156 kt, VR = 156 - 0 = 156 kt, V2 = 157 - 0 = 157 kt.

Answer
MTOW = 73 400 kg in configuration 1 + F. Speeds: 156 - 156 - 157.

6.2. Example 2: MTOW

PURPOSE
What is the maximum permissible takeoff weight and associated speeds?

LFPO ATIS
Provides the following data: Takeoff runway Runway condition Wind calm Temperature QNH : 51C : 1003 hPa : 08 : WET

AIRCRAFT STATUS: A320-214


MTOW Structure: 75.5 T Takeoff Configuration: Optimum Air conditioning : ON Total Anti-ice : OFF

Step 1 - Refer to RTOW


Enter the table Wind 0 / Temperature 51C. Read (74.2 156/56/57) for Conf 1+F; (74.1 152/52/56) for Conf 2; and (74.1 152/52/55) for Conf 3.

Step 2 - Corrections Influence of runway condition


WET: (-0.6 T, V1 = -6, VR = -2, V2 = -2) for Conf 1+F, (-0.4 T, V1 = -3, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 2, (-0.2 T, V1 = -3, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 3.

Step 3 - Corrections Influence of delta pressure


QNH : -10 hPA. Read (-0.8 T) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3. Read (V1 = 0, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3.

Step 4 Total corrections

Answer
MTOW = 73 100 kg in configuration 3 V1 = 149 kt, Vr = 152 kt, V2 = 155 kt NOTE: As two corrections are applied, speeds must be checked against minimum speeds (first on RTOW and secondly in FCOM 2.02.25).

6.3. Example 3: MTOW


PURPOSE
What is the maximum permissible takeoff weight and associated speeds?

LFPO ATIS
Provides the following data: Takeoff runway Runway condition Wind calm Temperature QNH : 3C : 1003 hPA : 08 : WET

AIRCRAFT STATUS: A320-214


MTOW Structure: 75.5 T Takeoff Configuration: Optimum Air conditioning : ON Total Anti-ice : ON

Step 1 - Refer to RTOW


Enter the table Wind 0 / Temperature 3C. Read (81.9 161/61/63) for Conf 1+F; (81.9 159/59/64) for Conf 2; and (82.0 159/59/61) for Conf 3.

Step 2 - Corrections for Total Anti-ice- Refer to 2.02.14 p 1


OAT<=ISA+5: subtract 950 kg

Step 3 - Refer to RTOW, find new speeds with the corrected weight.
Conf 1+F: 81.9-0.95=80.95 T Interpolated Speeds: 158/58/60 Conf 2: 81.9-0.95=80.95 T Interpolated Speeds: 155/55/60 Conf 3: 82-0.95=81.05 T Speeds: 156/56/59

Step 4 - Corrections Influence of runway condition


WET: (-0.6 T, V1 = -6, VR = -2, V2 = -2) for Conf 1+F, (-0.4 T, V1 = -3, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 2, (-0.2 T, V1 = -3, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 3.

Step 5 - Corrections Influence of delta pressure


QNH : -10 hPA. Read (-0.8 T) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3. Read (V1 = 0, VR = 0, V2 = 0) for Conf 1+F, Conf 2 and Conf 3.

This example is a typical case for a FLEX Takeoff, as explained in the next chapter. Conf 2: W=-400-800=-1200 V1= -3-0=-3 VR=0 V2=0 Conf 3: W=-200-800=-1000 V1= -3-0=-3 VR=0 V2=0

Exercise 1:
LFPO ATIS provides the following data: take off runway 08, runway condition WET, wind -10 kt, temperature 47 C, QNH 1023 hPA,

Aircraft status: Answer: MTOW = 74 400 kg V1 = 133 kt Vr = 141 kt V2 = 144 kt A 320-214 MTOW structure 75.5 t air conditioning ON, anti-icing OFF Take off configuration : optimum.

Exercise 2:
LFPO ATIS provides the following data: take off runway 08, Caution: runway length reduced to 1500 m due to work in progress. runway condition WET, wind calm,

7.1.3. Limiting Speeds: VMU


Minimum Unstick speed is the lowest calibrated airspeed at and above which the aircraft can safely lift off the ground and continue the TakeOff without encountering critical conditions. What are these critical conditions ? the necessary angle of attack is too great: the rear of the A/C can hit the ground.

Insufficient lateral control, may cause engine or wing to hit the ground.

You need less Thrust

When your Actual TakeOff Weight is lower than the Maximum TakeOff Weight, you can perform a TakeOff with less than the max TakeOff thrust. This thrust reduction improves engine life and reduces maintenance costs.

7.9.3. Derated Takeoff`

Short runway: TOGA is used & V1 min is high


V2 V1=VMCG VR

35ft

ACC STOP

This is due to excess of thrust

The present take off weight is VMCG limited, because of a short ASD and a high V1 min. We can observe a large excess of thrust after lift off. This excess of performance (thrust) is penalizing on ground and not necessary after lift off.

V1=VMCG

VR

35ft

ACC STOP

If, for the same TO weight, the maximum TO thrust is reduced or derated by a given percentage of X%, the associated VMCG is decreased. Consequently: V1 may be reduced, ACC/STOP distance is decreased accordingly, climb out performance may still be met.

Thus derated take off may allow to increase TO weight

FLIGHT CREW PERFORMANCE COURSE

A318/A319/A320/A321 PERFORMANCE TRAINING MANUAL TAKEOFF PERFORMANCE REMINDER

The Derated TO thrust is therefore to be considered as the maximum TO thrust rating available for a given take off. It determines the new VMCG and the new VMCA applicable during that take off. The use of Derated take off thrust: increases payloads when operating on: - short runways, - contaminated runways. also saves engine life.

Principle Advantages of derated take off :

TOGA Thrust

significant reduction of engine stress (like Flex TO), decreasing TOGA will also decrease VMCG, and the available value of V1, which enables short TO, allowed on contaminated Runways.

!
Flexible thrust
Thrust level is less than TOGA

6 level of derate available: 4%,8%,12%,16%,20%,24%. The original TOGA will never be available during TO.

Derated thrust
Thrust level is less than TOGA A new set of performance data is provided in the Flight Manual for each derate level. TOGA selection is not possible during Take-Off. Thrust setting parameters are considered as an operating limit for Take-Off. Derated Take-Off is allowed on contaminated runways.

Performance for a flex Take-Off is computed by adjusting the max Take-Off thrust performance. At any moment it is possible to recover TOGA. Thrust setting parameters for flex Take-Off are not considered as Take-Off operating limits. Flex Take-Off cannot be performed on contaminated runways.
