Applicable to: -
- General Information
The electrical
and hydraulic control of NWS is inoperative. Do not reset
the WHEEL N/W STRG FAULT alert with A/SKID & N/W STRG selector . The WHEEL N/W STRG FAULTalert indicates that no hydraulic pressure is applied
on the NWS actuator.
- Flight preparation/Limitations
Dispatch is not permitted from (or to)
contaminated runways.
Maximum crosswind component for takeoff
and landing: 20 kt.
Maximum landing capability is CAT 3 SINGLE.
NOTE:
the automatic roll out is not
permitted ( Refer to QRH ).
For operations with crosswind component above 5 kt:
Reduce maximum takeoff
performance limiting weight by 1000 kg ( 2200 lb)
- During Taxi
Taxiing Procedure:
Avoid high thrust settings,
taxi speed limited to 20 kt .
Check brakes temperature (if
available) before takeoff.
If necessary, set the BRAKES FAN pb-sw (If Installed) to ON.
Minimum speed of 5 kt is required to initiate a turn.
Apply asymmetrical thrust in
straight taxi to compensate crosswind and differential braking for
taxi and line up as required.
Avoid sharp turns and use maximum
width of the runway.
Do not apply too high asymmetrical
thrust to avoid that nose landing gear get stuck to full travel ( 90 °) (in that case release the aircraft by towing).
- For Takeoff
In the case of crosswind component above 5 kt:
Set full nose down
elevator till 80 kt regardless of the aircraft loading.
Apply N1 = 50 % on the brakes
Release the brakes,
and smoothly apply takeoff power
Use asymmetric braking,
if required, to keep on runway center-line until directional control
is available by use of rudder.
Release stick progressively
to reach neutral at about 100 kt.
- For Landing
Do not use autobrake for landing.
In the case of crosswing component above 5 kt:
Aircraft lateral control
is achieved with the rudder until slowing to approximately 50 kt IAS.
Upon reaching 50 kt IAS use differential braking to achieve taxi speed as
required.
- After Landing
Disengage AP at touchdown
when autoland is performed.
