CARE - Charity for Aviation - Recreation and Education
2. The assessment will be held in Cathay City
You will fly a level D A320/A330 Simulator
16. Flight parameters are displayed on
Primary Flight Displays (PFD)
while navigation data is displayed on
Navigation Displays(ND)
PFD1 PFD2ND1 ND2
17. ND has several modes. In
ARC mode,
• Aircraft Position
• Navaids
• Airfields
• TCAS
Other modes include
• ROSEVOR
• ROSE LS
• PLAN
Planned Route
Aircraft
28. The fixed black and yellow
symbols represents the aircraft
Read attitude information:
• Imagine looking the aircraft
from the back
• Sky is BLUE
• Ground is BROWN
29. The Sky Pointer
• Moves to show angle of
bank
• Always points to the
sky

30. • Indicates side slip
• Replaces the balance
indicator(the ball)

34. The gray compass scale
moves against a fixed yellow
line which represents the
centerline of the aircraft
In the example shown the
aircraft is heading 091
degrees
HEADING 091
35. TRACK DIAMOND
Small green diamond represents
the aircraft track
In the example shown the track is
094 degrees which means that the
aircraft has 3 degrees of drift to the
right
TRACK 094
36. A selected heading
may appear either as;
• a blue figure, on
the appropriate side
on the compass scale
or
•a blue triangle
37. On the FCU there is a
Heading selector, with an
indicator, that is linked to
the selected heading
indication on the PFD
compass
Target Heading
Selector and Indicator
38. All the indications associated
with Altitude are located on the
right hand side of the PFD
CLB NAV
39. The main part of the
display is dedicated to the
Altimeter. To the far right is
the Vertical Speed display

In the final stage of
an approach the

41. The vertical speed indication
is showing a rate of descent of
800 feet/ minute
Also note that the target
altitude has been set to 9000
feet.

42. The Speed scale moves behind a fixed yellow reference line
and triangle. In the example shown the indicated airspeed is
steady at 250 knots
43. When the aircraft is
accelerating, or
decelerating a
Speed Trend Arrow
appears
This arrow shows the
value that will be
attained in 10 seconds
if the ac(de)celeration
remains constant
SpeedTrend Arrow
48. Use the tiller to turn.
Be smooth during the
turns.
You do not need to
touch the sidestick.
Idle thrust is enough
for taxy.
Use brakes if
necessary.
50. For departure, usually
CONF 1+F(corresponds
to the “1” on the
handle) or 2 used.
The instructor may
set the flaps for you.
51. TheThrust Lever has
several detents.They are:
- IDLE
- CL(Climb)
- FLX/MCT
(Flex/Maximum Continuous
Thrust)
-TOGA
(Take Off/Go Around)
Advance theThrust Levers
to FLX/MCT detent (Second
detent) for take off
56. • “V1”
• “Rotate”
• Pull stick back to about 2/3
• About 3 degrees per second
(1001… 1002… 1003…)
• Aim at 15 degrees nose up,
then follow FD
Rotate
58. LVR CLB
Passing 1,500 feet,
“LVR CLB”(Lever Climb) will
flash on the FMA.
Retard theThrust Lever to
the CLB(Climb) detent.
It is “one-click”below the
“FLX/MCT” detent.
61. The Localizer indicator
indicates the aircraft’s
horizontal position
relative to the centreline
of the runway.(Left or
right)
The Glideslope indicator
indicates the vertical
position of the aircraft,
relative to a 3 degrees
profile to the
runway.(High or Low)

72. Each side stick is fitted with a
redTake-over pushbutton.
Autopilot is disconnected if the
button is pressed.
Press twice to cancel audible
warning
73. If both sidesticks are being moved at the
same time, the pilot flying can keep pressing
theTake-over pushbutton to gain control.
The arrow points left showing that the
Captain has control.
Avoid moving the sidestick when another
pilot is having control.
74. When the Flight Director is
selected
Flight Director indications
are on the attitude indicator
75. Notice that there is an indication
on the FMA when the Flight
Directors are switched on
76. Vertical line =

78. In this example the FD is directing a
pitch up and roll to the right
Once the aircraft has achieved the
required pitch and bank the Flight
Director bars will once again be
centred
Roll to the right directed
Pitch up directed
79. No feedback on the sidestick
Same AMOUNT of input will always
generate same AMOUNT of output,
regardless of speed and configuration
Handling Differences
80. Higher sensitivity than most conventional aircrafts, yet:
Noticeable lag/delay compared to conventional aircrafts
After target Attitude is achieved, RELEASE the sidestick
No Rudder input required except duringTake Off and Landing
(Glider pilots!)
Anytime when thing goes wrong, RELEASE the sidestick!
Handling Differences
81. A lot to memorise?
MOST important part :
FOLLOW the FD
Enjoy the flight
