Study Notes

A320 Aircraft Characteristics

  • The tip of the horizontal stabilizer requires the greatest clearance during a turn on the A321.
  • On the A318, A319, and A320, the wing tip is the limiting part during a turn.
  • The eye level in the cockpit of an A320 is 127 inches.
  • The bulk compartment is not pressurized.

Aircraft Operation

  • It is possible to fly with the A321 over the North Pole, considering range is not a problem.
  • If Engine 1 bleed is inoperative, it is possible to operate pack 1 with engine 2 bleed air.
  • It is important to monitor the hot air ducts for leaks to prevent damage.
  • Conditioning the aircraft on ground with packs switched off is not possible.
  • After pushing the APU BLEED pushbutton switch, the air conditioning pack is powered.
  • To control the pack flow control valves after each engine start, use the PACK FLOW switch.
  • To make the tightest turn, use the method that takes into account the clearance of the horizontal stabilizer on the A321.
