LANDING DISTANCE COMPUTATION

SYS FAILURE A NORM (1) - 1.1

FAILURE A 3 10 1.2

(1) If NORM is indicated for landing configuration, and if CONF3 is used, apply an additional 1.1 coefficient to the landingdistance.

Determine the landing

distance coefficient.

Determine the landingdistance in CONF FULLCONF FULL

without failure

Apply the coefficientdetermined above to thisdistance.

The PNF should not start reading the STATUS before confirmation from the PF.

For any priority reason Status analysis can be postponed by PFe.g. C/L, ATC communication…

In some cases, some other checks or actions may have to be performed, before reading the STATUS:

In case of failure at takeoff, the NORMAL TAKEOFF C/LNORMAL TAKEOFF C/L has to be performed

OEBOEB (if applicable) is to be applied at that time (Refer to QRH 6.00),
