Standard Strategy • In case of engine failure and if no constraining obstacle is found on the route, the AIRBUS ‘Standard strategy’ will be adopted. • It ensures MAX range at the expense of rate of descent and descent ceiling Single engine operations 3

Obstacle Strategy • If constraining obstacles are met on the route after an engine

Obstacle Strategy • If constraining obstacles are met on the route after an engine failure, the ‘AIRBUS Obstacle strategy’ (Drift down) will be adopted in order to maintain the highest possible level. • It ensures min rate of descent and max E/O descent ceiling at the expense of range.

Example • DATA – SAT: -36ºC – GW 68 000 kg – FL 330

Example • DATA – SAT: -36ºC – GW 68 000 kg – FL 330 – MORA : 18 300 ft Single engine operations 17

 • DATA – – SAT: -36 GW 68 000 kg FL 330 MORA

• DATA – – SAT: -36 GW 68 000 kg FL 330 MORA 18300 ft DISA=+15 LRC Ceiling 16600 ft As LRC ceiling is below the MORA, the Standard strategy can not be adopted. Single engine operations 18

• DATA – SAT: -36 – GW 68 000 kg – FL 330 – MORA 18300 ft DISA=+15 LRC Ceiling 16600 ft As the Drift Down ceiling (19 800 ft) is above the MORA, the Drift Down Procedure is adopted. 409 234 75. 5 25. 2 19800 Single engine operations 19

Procedure • Set MCT on the remaining engine • Decelerate to green dot speed:

Procedure • Set MCT on the remaining engine • Decelerate to green dot speed: 234 kt Then Descend to level off • Set, on FCU green dot speed and pull • A/THR : OFF • Set on FCU Drift Down Ceiling and pull. Single engine operations 20
