The difference between Refuel Full and High Level is: it is there for the IDG Fuel Return to fill up.
When the High Level is reached the Center Tanks stop sending Fuel to the Engines so that the Wing Tanks
will send some fuel to the Engines and make room for more IDG Return Fuel.
The Wing Tanks will do this until 1100 LBS has been burned off.
You will get an ECAM Advisory Message if:
1. the Fuel Tank difference between Wing Tanks is greater than 3307 Lbs.
2. Fuel Temperature is greater than 45 C in the Inner Cell
3. Fuel Temperature is greater than 55 C in the Outer Cell
4. Fuel Temperature is less than -40 C in any Cell
The goal is to burn the Center Tank fuel first:
Refueling sequence: Outer Inner Center.
Capacity 14,500

and the FUEL MODE SELECT SWITCH FAULT Light comes ON.

The fuel transfer system controls the flow of fuel from the center tank to the wing tanks, which feed the
engines. The tanks empty in the following sequence:
Aft ACT transfers fuel into the center tank
Forward ACT transfers fuel into the center tank
Center tank transfers fuel into the wing tanks
Wing tanks
With the MODE SEL Pb in AUTO, the Fuel Level Sensing Control Unit (FLSCU) has automatic control of
the transfer valve. When the transfer valve is open, fuel from the wing tank pumps flows through the jet
pump and creates suction. This suction moves the fuel from the center tank to the related wing tank. The
FLSCU automatically closes the associated center tank transfer valve when the wing tank is full. The
transfer valve reopens the center tank transfer valve when the engines have used 550 lbs of wing tank fuel.
With the MODE SEL Pb in MAN, the center tank transfer valves open. Wing tank overflow must be
prevented by selecting the CTR TK XFR pbs OFF when the wing tanks are full. They must also be selected
OFF when the center tank is empty.
With the ACT pb in AUTO, automatic control of the transfer occurs after takeoff at slats retraction. It is
initiated if the center tank high-level sensor has been dry for 10 minutes and fuel remains in either ACT.
Fuel transfer from the ACTs to the center tank is made by pressurizing the ACT, closing the ACT vent
valves, and opening the air shutoff and inlet valves. ACT2 transfers first. During transfer, if the center tank
high level sensor gets wet, transfer from the ACT stops. The transfer valve opens when the center tank high
sensor is dry for 10 minutes.
DIFFERENCE: On the A319/A320 the CENTER Fuel Switches are PUMP Switches while on the A321
they are TRANSFER VALVE Switches.
To activate the ACT Transfer of fuel these conditions must be met:
1. In-flight
2. Slats = 0
3. Center Tank Float is dry
4. Fuel is in the Tank
5. Aircraft is pressurized (cabin pressure pressurizes the ACTs)
You will get an ECAM Advisory Message if:
1. the Fuel Tank difference between Wing Tanks is greater than 3307 Lbs.
2. Fuel Temperature is greater than 45 C in a Wing Tank
3. Fuel Temperature is less than -40 C in a Wing Tank
NORMAL LAW
PROTECTIONS
Pitch: == 30 and 15
High Speed: At Red Barber Pole the A/P disconnects
Overspeed Warning
Vmo + 6 kts // Mmo + .01 [ third A/P ]
Limits Bank to 45 degrees
High AOA: pushes over NOT override-able
Vls A/TH is ON lowest achievable speed
ALPHA PROT
A AOA commanded by Side Stick
S SB retracts (speed brake)
A A/P disconnects
P Pitch Up Trim is inhibited
Limits Bank Angle to 45 degrees
Between Alpha Prot and Alpha Max you
should expect ALPHA FLOOR to occur.
It will initiate TOGA, regardless of A/TH switch.
It is inhibited by:
1. Altitude is less than 100
2. Single Engine with Flaps
3. Malfunction
4. A/TH disconnected by holding longer than 15 seconds
This may cause TOGA LOCK:
To get out of it:
1. Advance Thrust Lever to TOGA and
2. Disconnect
3. return to CL detent.
4. Re-engage the A/TH via the pushbutton

You may have Autotrim.
With Autopilot:

ETC
If an inhibiting condition occurs, the Speedbrakes retract automatically. To regain control of the
Speedbrakes, the inhibiting condition must be corrected and the SPEED BRAKE lever must be moved to
the RET position for ten seconds.
Ground Spoilers:
Takeoff with them ARMED:

Lets say you takeoff with them Disarmed.
When will they deploy during a RTO?
RTO occurs > 72 kts
Thrust Levers both IDLE
One or both Reversers selected
Then AUTOBRAKES

ALTHOUGH THIS IS THE WAY MANY PHs TEACH IT, THERE ARE NO LOOPS
at least not in the way you think of Engine fire Loops, etc..
THERE ARE LOGIC CIRCUITS.
SEE THE VISUAL ORAL SWITCH LIGHT GUIDE FOR THE ACTUAL SYSTEM DATA.
Two Channels per LOOP.
ONE Bottle but two Discharge Lights.
If you discharge once, both Light will come on.
The Smoke Light will probably remain as it senses the smoke and Halon optically.
From the US Airways PH: Both cargo compartments are equipped with smoke detector loops. The forward
compartment contains 2 smoke detectors in the A319/320 and 4 smoke detectors in the A321. In the
A319/320, the aft compartment contains 2 loops with two detectors each. In the A321, the aft
compartment contains 3 loops with 2 smoke detectors in each. A Smoke Detection Control Unit (SDCU)
issues a smoke warning when 2 smoke detectors of one loop detect smoke. If 1 smoke detector fails, the
system remains operational with the other detector.
Cargo smoke is indicated by an aural CRC, the illumination of the MASTER WARN and CARGO SMOKE light
on the CARGO SMOKE panel.
1 extinguisher bottle supplies one nozzle in the forward compartment and 2 nozzles in the aft
compartment. The agent is discharged by pressing either the FWD or AFT DISCH pb.
If the cargo smoke warning is activated in either compartment, the associated isolation valves close
and the extraction fan stops.
Note:
THRUST LEVERS
To ARM:
Thrust Levers are ARMED in the TOGA, FLX MCT positions.
TOGA is a manual setting.
If you are there unnaturally you will get messages: every 5 seconds
LVR CL
MAN THRUST [ on the FMA ]
MCT is a manual setting (except in single engine)
It is ENGAGED when placed to CL upon LVR CL message.
To DISENGAGE:
Pull to IDLE
Use the Instinctive pb
You will get messages: every 5 seconds
LVR CL
AUTO FLT AUTO THRUST LIMITED [ on ECAM ]
To RE-ENGAGE:
A/TH push
Place Thrust Levers to CL
If A/TH is OFF
AUTO THRUST
THRUST LOCK:
The Thrust Lock function prevents thrust variations when the Autothrust System fails and disengages. How
should the crew suppress the thrust lock condition?
Moving the Thrust Levers out of the CL or MCT detent suppresses the Thrust Lock and allows manual
control by means of the Thrust Levers.
The Thrust Lock function is activated when the Thrust Levers are in the CL Detent (MCT Detent when
Single Engine) and:
The pilot disengages A/THR by pushing the A/THR pb on the FCU, or
The A/THR disconnects due to a failure
The Thrust is locked or frozen at its level prior to disconnection.
When Thrust Lock is active:
THR LK flashes amber on the FMA
ECAM ENG THRUST LOCKED flashes every 5 seconds
ECAM displays THR LEVERS MOVE
A Single Chime sounds and the MASTER CAUTION Light flashes every 5 seconds. All Warnings cease
when the Thrust Levers are moved out of the Detent.
SIDE STICKS
LOGIC:
When only one pilot operates the Side Stick, it sends control signals to the computers
When the other pilot operates his Side Stick in the same or opposite direction, the system adds the
signals of both pilots algebraically. The total is limited to the signal that would result from the
maximum deflection of a single Side Stick.
Both green CAPT and F/O SIDE STICK PRIORITY lights flash and a DUAL INPUT audio
voice message is given every 5 seconds as long as both pilots operate their Side Sticks
simultaneously.
A pilot can deactivate the other Side Stick and take full control by keeping his Priority Takeover
pb depressed.
To LATCH the priority condition, press the Takeover pb for more than 40 seconds. This allows the
pilot to release his Takeover pb without losing priority. However, a pilot can at any time reactivate
a deactivated Side Stick by momentarily pressing the Takeover pb on either Side Stick.
If both pilots press their Takeover pbs, the pilot that presses LAST gets priority.
In a priority situation:
A) A RED light illuminates in front of the pilot whose Side Stick is deactivated.
B) A GREEN light illuminates in front of the pilot who has taken control, if the other Side
Stick is not in the neutral position (indicates a potential and unwanted control demand).
This Light Flashes as long as the other Side Stick is NOT in neutral position.
C) A PRIORITY LEFT or PRIORITY RIGHT audio message is given each time priority
is taken.
