- Is it ok to leave the cockpit with the Parking break released?
No, one station must be manned when the parking break is released unless mx is being preformed and they ok it.
- What do you do if the airplane moves with the parking break on?
Release the parking break and apply toe brakes
- What action is taken at minimums when landing from a non-precision approach?
AP off if adequate visual references are in sight otherwise conduct missed approach. If missed approach point is not collocated at the runway also turn off FD
- When is it appropriate to call continuing on an approach?
At DA when approach lights are in sight may not continue below 100 ft HAT
- When do you select flaps full on a single engine approach?
Established on final descent to an assured landing.
- When may a single engine auto land be conducted?
Flight crew may use emergency authority when they think its the safest course of action. Config full should be used
- In case of a dual engine failure , which actions do you apply first ECAM or QRH?
QRH
- Who has authority to cancel a flight?
Only SOC Systems Operational Controller
- Preparing for a CAT 3 approach the standby altimeter fails does that affect your ability to conduct the approach?
No it is not on the list of required items
- When may we fly to a published MDA?
Never. Monkey Do add. Needs to be converted to a DDA.
- How do you verify that your EPE does not exceed your RNP of 1.0?
Nav accur high denotes your estimated position error does not exceed appropriate criteria. See MCDU prog page
- What does RNAV 1 mean?
Requires a total system error of not more than 1nm for 95% of the total flight time
- What is the definition of marginal wx?
Ceiling within 100ft or visibility within 1/2 mile of approach minimums at destinAtion and same critieria for derived minimums at alternate airport
- What is the lowest RVR we are authorized to take off at assuming all lights are working?
500 500 500 rvr
- Which leading edge devices are anti ice protected? Is the tail ice protected?
Slats 3 4 and 5. No
- When is full alignment of the IRS’s required?
FFOD, gps not available and navaid coverage is poor on the expected route, gps not available and expected flight time is more than 3 hours, international flights, Alaska flights, flights in class 2 airspace.
- During engine start the electrical power supply is interrupted, what is our action?
Abort the start manually dry crank for 30 seconds
- After engine start the ground crew reports a fuel leak what are our actions?
320, 321, 320 NEO Run engine at idle for 5 minutes. If leak stops aircraft an be dispatched. If not mx is required.
321 NEO there is no relief for a fuel leak, mx must be called

Yes but thrust will increase rapidly to corresponding thrust lever position.
- During cockpit prep, setting QNH on FCU what is the max altitude difference between PFD 1 and 2?
+- 20ft
- During cockpit prep, when turning off and on the batteries what are we looking for?
Charging cycle initiated. Check ELEC page both battery currents will drop below 60amps after 10 seconds and continue to decrease. If not crew must continue to wait until charging is complete.
- Does bat 1&2 need to be in auto for an APU start?
Yes.
FFOD, the electrical system is powered with AC power. Is a battery voltage check required?
No.
