2.10 INTRODUCTION
A. The Take-off Module is used to compute the take-off performance data (maximum take-
off weight, take-off speeds, flexible temperature, etc.) according to the aircraft
configuration and external conditions.
B. After the aircraft is selected and the flight identification has been entered in the “My
Flight Page”, takeoff module can be started by tapping the Takeoff shortcut.
C. The Aircraft registration is given on the top portion of the application. The aircraft type
and/or registration (tail number) can only be changed on the “My Flight Page”. To get
back, tap on the “My Flight” on the upper left of the application.
A. The application is initialized with the airport selected in “My Flight” page by default.
B. The Airport can be changed by typing the airports IATA (3 letter) code. The TO perf will
propose a list of available airports with the typed letters and tap the airport.
D. Tap “RWY” field, the list of available runways are proposed. Choose the runway from the
list.
E. Runway intersections are indicated by the runway ID followed by the taxiway ID.
F. Once a runway is selected, the application will automatically go to the “wind” input. In
order to view the runway details, close the “wind” input and tap on the runway to check
the runway details.
G. The runway characteristics will be displayed. These consist of Elevation, Slope, TORA,
TODA, ASDA, Entry angle, the number of obstacles in the take-off path and the Takeoff
shift.
I. To return to the Runway computation, tap on “Close”. To return to the runway details, tap
on “Back”.
J. Also, on the runway image, the user can also change the runway. If the user clicks on
“Full” a list of available taxiways/temporary runways will be seen.
K. The user will have an option on selecting which taxiway or temporary runway to be used
for the computation and the RWY selection will also change.
Note: There are no “MULTIPLE RWY” computations for FlySmart with Airbus for iPad.
A. Line-up corrections are applied automatically when computing takeoff performance any
time the access to the runway does not permit positioning of the airplane at the
threshold. Two different possibilities for line-up are considered, 90 degree taxiway entry
and 180 degree turn around.
B. Rolling takeoff technique is equivalent in terms of performance to static takeoff technique
for the same line-up corrections. All Takeoff computations can be used on both
techniques.
A. When a NOTAM affects performance, there will be two or more runway IDs with the same
designator. Runways with Temporary performance are represented by a “TMP” to
indicate that a NOTAM has been included. The effective NOTAM number is displayed
below the EOSID. Refer to the briefing package for the validity of the NOTAMs, as
NOTAMs can be valid only during specific hours of the day.
C. Modifications entered at this level do not affect the runway database. It is lost when the
runway or the computation mode (i.e Single or multiple computations) is changed.
1. From the RWY selection, tap “RWY” and a list of RWY will be available. From there, a
“Modify RWY” selection will be available.
2. When the Modify RWY is clicked, the user has an option to modify 1 RWY.
3. When a RWY is selected, the user can now modify the details. Type the entry in the
field and tap “Done” to validate the modification.
4. Another option to modify the RWY is to click the RWY image and the RWY details will
be shown. From here, the user can select “Modify RWY”.
E. As the obstacle reference point is unique, the system will only retain either the distance
from brake release or from the end of the runway, whichever is last entered. When an
obstacle is added, the statement “Obstacle added” will be shown on the RWY details.
F. If required (e.g by NOTAM) the RWY entry angle (90O or 180O) can be modified by tapping
“Modify Entry Angle” and selecting the appropriate entry angle. The RWY entry angle
controls the Line Up Distance allowance which is unique for each aircraft type. FlySmart
then automatically applies the right correction to ASDA and TODA.
G. On returning to the RWY computation, any changes to the runway characteristics with the
appropriate modification.
A. Access the conditions panel by tapping on the appropriate condition. To go to the next
condition, tap on “next”.
2.50.10 WIND
1. Absolute wind – Wind input is via the format Degree/Wind Speed/Wind Gust. Just tap
the appropriate values for the wind condition. The entry is projected along the
runway axis and perpendicular to the runway axis, to respectively determine the
headwind (or tailwind) component and crosswind component. A wind cone will be
present to indicate the wind direction.
2. Relative Wind – The user can directly input the wind component. The user can either
select HD (Headwind) or TL (Tailwind) and entering the wind value on the text box.
3. Tap “next” to go to the next condition or Tap “done” to close the selection.
C. The entered wind is checked against tailwind and crosswind limitations and an error
message will be displayed. Be conservative each time load is not critical.
D. In case the flight is payload restricted and in order to optimize take-off performance the
most accurate values must be sought. If ATIS/METAR reports the wind as light and/or
variable, obtain the most realistic steady wind from the Air Traffic Controller.
E. If required and to ensure the greatest payload can be lifted from a departure airfield, an
alternate runway may be considered taking into account any possible delay.
2.50.20 TEMPERATURE
A. The user enters the Outside Air Temperature (OAT) for the departure airport. When the
user taps on the temperature input, an alternative unit will also be available. The
temperature input will also display the limits and format.
B. The application displays automatically the associated ISA depending on the QNH value.
C. Tap on “Next” to go to the next selection or Tap “Done” to close the selection.
2.50.30 QNH
A. The user enters the QNH for the departure airport. When the user taps the QNH input, an
alternative unit will also be available.
B. For values entered in inches of mercury, the pilot entry is presented between brackets.
A. The field “RWY COND” provides different runway states for which computation is possible.
1. Dry
2. Wet
7. Compacted snow
D. Note that the selection of certain runway condition may affect the temperature range (e.g
Users can’t have snow at 30OC).
E. A runway is considered contaminated when more than 25% of the runway surface is
covered by a contaminant. To provide a conservative level of performance, FlySmart
contaminated runway computation is based on 100% of the runway surface being covered
by a uniform layer of contaminant.
A. When the takeoff module is started, the TOW field may contain a value different than the
maximum certified weight of the chosen aircraft. It can be initialized by tapping “*”.
B. The Takeoff weight input will also display the range of the TOW
C. If the entered value is out of range, the TOW input screen will shake.
D. If the entered value is greater than the MTOW, a pop up window is displayed:
E. When the TOW is light and / or the wind is gusty, it is allowable to enter a higher mass to
give a higher speed. However this should not be done at the expense of flex. If a higher
TOW is purposely entered, the FlySmart will display a higher Green Dot Speed than the
MCDU.
A. The takeoff performance of an aircraft is influenced by the location of its center of gravity.
For conservation reason and to cover the most unfavorable condition of interior
configuration and payload loading, the takeoff performance is usually calculated based on
the airplane’s most forward CG limit.
B. Whenever the aircraft is operated at CG locations aft of the most forward limit, there will
be takeoff weight capabilities in excess compared to the most forward CG limit.

D. It is mandatory to cross check the trim sheet MACTOW including LMC when selecting CG
other than the most forward. Whenever in doubt, select the most forward CG option.
F. Example:
1. If the actual takeoff CG (i.e MACTOW) is less than 27% MAC, the option “CG<27%”
shall be selected.
2. If the actual takeoff CG (i.e MACTOW) is greater or equal 27% MAC, the option “
CG>=27%” shall be selected.
2.50.70 CONFIGURATION
A. The field CONF stands for configuration and opens a dropdown list box. One option of the
list box is optimum configuration. When selected, the takeoff performance is optimized
and FlySmart will return the best configuration in terms of highest takeoff mass for your
OAT. In the case of equivalent mass among configurations, the configuration giving the
lowest takeoff speeds is retained.
2.50.80 AIR-CONDITIONING
2.50.90 ANTI-ICE
B. Anti-Ice system increases engine bleed and thus reduces the available thrust. As a result,
the takeoff weight decreases and the takeoff distances increases.
2.50.100 MEL/CDL
B. The MEL/CDL items panel displays the list of system failures that have an impact on
takeoff performance. The user selects the desired items in the following panel by tapping
on the chosen row. However, consult the MEL for the validity of multiple selections.
C. A panel in which user can select the failure appears. Item selection can be done by
tapping on the chosen row, then the done button.
D. After One MEL has been selected, the “Reset” button is activated in order to reset all MEL
items to normal.
G. Alternatively, the MEL/CDL item can be selected while consulting in the FlySmart OPS
library. This selection will be transferred to the takeoff/landing module and would have an
indicator if it is added as an MEL item.
H. The selected items are then reported on the main page in the inoperative item frame
when the MEL/CDL box is tapped.
A. When the takeoff conditions and runway selection are set, tap on the “Compute” for
computation and the following window is displayed:
The CONF field displayed after computation displays the selected or optimized takeoff
configuration
2.60.20 THRUST
A. The Thrust field displays the thrust setting used for the calculation.
B. In case of TOGA thrust, TOGA is displayed. In case of flexible takeoff, the value is the
optimum flexible temperature.
2.60.30 V1/VR/V2
Takeoff Speeds
Several regulatory requirements limit takeoff performance. These takeoff limitations are
identified in the computation results via limitation codes. The following table indicates the
various codes that can appear:
CODE DESCRIPTION
TOW Maximum computation weight, or maximum structural weight
All-engine Take-off Distance (TOD0), or
RWY0 All-engine take-off Run (TOR0), or
All-engine Accelerate-Stop Distance (ASD0)
One-engine inoperative take-off Distance (TOD1), or
RWY1 One-engine inoperative take-off Run (TOR1), or
One-engine inoperative Accelerate-Stop Distance (ASD1)
VMCG V1 limited by Minimum Control speed on Ground
TIRE Vlof limited by maximum TIRE speed
BRK V1 limited by maximum BRAKE energy
VMCA V2 limited by Minimum Control speed in the Air.
1SEG 1st Segment climb gradient
2SEG 2nd Segment climb gradient
3SEG Acceleration (3rd) segment
FTO Final take-off climb gradient
OBS Obstacle clearance
VMU Minimum Unstick speed
The EO ACCEL field displays the minimum value of engine-out acceleration altitude. This value
is a pressure field.
The maximum performance limited take-off weight (MTOW (PERF)) for the calculated
conditions.
Caution: Even if the MTOW (perf) may be above the structural MTOW, the aircraft must not be
dispatched with a take-off weight above the structural MTOW.
2.60.80 EOSID
The EOSID (Engine-Out SID) procedure is visible for all runways in the database. For further
information on the EOSID, consult the AIRPORT and EOSID chapter.
The ASD is displayed on the runway drawing. It corresponds to the distance necessary to
perform a rejected takeoff.
A. Swiping the results screen to the left will give the MCDU like screen.
B. The user can also distinguish if the result is TOGA or FLEX. On the “FLEX TO TEMP”, an “F”
signifies Flex temperature as seen below
1. For TOGA:
2. For FLEX:
C. THS, TRANS ALT and THR RED/ACC are not available in FlySmart.
A. Swiping from the MCDU like screen to the left will give the detailed result.
8. For additional information, the user can refer to Aircraft Performance LMS (Learning
Management System) and from the Definitions and Regulations Section.
A. There are cases when a computation will give multiple results. Meaning that a TOGA and
FLEX result will be available.
B. Tapping the TOGA / FLEX will give the result for the corresponding thrust setting.
C. When a thrust setting is selected and the user wants to return to the multiple results, tap
on “Multiple results”.
When the takoff performance has been computed and the user wants to change an input, the
user must click on the “Modify” button and the user can now change the input.
A. The obstacles analyzed in FLYSMART are those positioned in the take-off flight path as
defined by the ICAO cone.
B. The cone is defined as starting with a half width of 90 meters at the end of the Take-off
Distance Available (TODA), and expanding at 0.125 times the distance from the end of the
TODA to a maximum half width of 900 (0.5NM) meters
2.70.20 ACCELERATION ALTITUDE, BANK ANGLES, TURN RADAII AND HOLDING PATTERN
C. Where a turn is required before reaching green dot speed, it is based on 15 degrees.
Thereafter a bank angle of 25 degrees is used.
D. Turning (except in the holding pattern), are based on a maximum ground speed of 215KT
Still Air Ground Speed (2.5NM Radius of turn).
E. The engine failure holding pattern is based on 5NM legs with a 2NM radius turn. There is a
3 NM buffer zone of protected airspace on each side of the intended holding track.
A. Inoperative Navigation Aids are not monitored by Flight Operations Technical Support.
Crew should refer to the following procedure, whenever a Navigation Aid used in the
(Special) EOSID is out of service.
B. Procedure:
1. Deselect the out of service Navigation Aid (to inhibit spurious position updating)
2. Build the EOSID in the Secondary Flight Plan using place/bearing/distance function as
appropriate.
A. Standard Instrument Departures (SIDs) are designed in accordance with ICAO Pans-Ops.
They are based on normal all-engine operations and assume that the aircraft are capable
of maintaining a climb profile.
B. In the event of an engine failure, continued adherence to departure procedures may not
be possible as SIDs do not necessarily assure that engine out obstacle clearance
requirements are met.
2. EOSIDs are based upon engine out performance in relation to obstacle clearance.
EOSIDs can be in the form of straight departure or a series of turns.
E. “The operator shall establish contingency procedures to satisfy the requirement in (a) and
(b) and to provide a safe route, avoiding obstacles, to enable the aeroplane to either
comply with the en-route requirements of CAT.POL.A.215, or land at either the
aerodrome of departure or at a take-off alternate aerodrome”.
F. Please note that the established Engine-Out procedure developed by Navblue, does not
require an approval from the authority.
G. In case of difference between the FMS EOSID and EFB EOSID, the EFB EOSID will prevail
and should be followed by the crew. The FMS EOSID will be updated on the next AIRAC
revision.
Note: EOSID provide obstacle clearance from end of Runway to the hold point. Regardless of
STD or NON-STD EOSID, obstacle clearance is considered up to the holding area.
C. The last point, if any, that is common to both the SID and Engine-out SID is
called the diversion point (DP).
B. EOSIDs created by Navtech have two (2) types: Standard (STD) and Non-
Standard (NON-STD). These procedures provide obstacle clearance from
takeoff up to an engine out holding.
C. Standard EOSID:
1. Will be used for all procedures with a straight out climb to 1500ft above
runway end before turning to the engine failure holding pattern.
2. Ex: MNL RWY 24: STD. At 1600 turn RIGHT to MIA HP. D114.4 MIA HP:
Inbound 080°, RIGHT turn.
D. Non-Standard EOSID:
1. Will be used for all procedures with an initial turn before or after
1500ft. above runway end threshold.
2. Ex: MNL RWY 13: NON-STD. At SHELA turn RIGHT to TIAGO HP. TIAGO
HP: Inbound 132°, RIGHT turn.
Note: In case of difference between the FMS EOSID and EFB EOSID, the EFB
EOSID will prevail and should be followed by the crew. The FMS EOSID
will be updated on the next AIRAC revision.
The definitions of airspeeds, runway condition (dry, wet, contaminants and equivalent depths)
are contained in FCOM-PRO-SUP-10 and FCOM-PER-TOF-CTA-20 respectively. For takeoff
calculation purposes, a damp runway shall be considered wet, as it does not meet the
definition of dry.
2.80.10 STOPWAY
An area at the end of the runway in the direction of take-off, no narrower than the runway,
centered on the extended center line, and capable of supporting the aircraft during a rejected
take-off without causing structural damage to the aircraft. The Stopway is designated by the
Airport Authority for use in decelerating the aircraft during a rejected take-off.
2.80.20 CLEARWAY
A. An area at the end of the runway in the direction of take-off, not less than 500 ft. wide,
centered on the extended center-line, and under the control of the Airport Authority. The
Clearway is designated by the Airport Authority as a suitable area over which the aircraft
may make a portion of its initial climb to a height of 35 ft. (Dry runway) or 15 ft. (Wet or
contaminated runway). The clearway may not be capable of supporting the mass of the
aircraft.
B. The clearway may have a maximum upward slope not exceeding 1.25%, above which no
object or terrain protrudes. However, threshold lights may protrude above the plane if
their height above the end of the runway is 0.66 m (26 ins) or less and if they are located
to each side of the runway.
The length of the runway, which is declared to be available and suitable for the ground run of
an aircraft taking off. This in most cases corresponds to the length of the runway.
The length of the runway, which is declared to be available and suitable for the ground run of
an aircraft taking off. This in most cases corresponds to the length of the runway.
It is the length of the Take-off Run Available plus the length of Clearway available (if Clearway
is provided).
TOD N-1 DRY – Distance covered from the brake release to a point at which the aircraft is at
35 feet above the takeoff surface assuming the failure of the critical engine at V EF and
recognized at V 1 .
1.15 TOD N Dry – 115% of the distance covered from brake release to a point at which the
aircraft is 35 feet above the takeoff surface, assuming all engines operating.
TOD N-1 Wet – Distance covered from brake release to a point at which the aircraft is at 15
feet above the takeoff surface, ensuring the V 2 speed to be achieved before the airplane
is 35 feet above the takeoff surface, assuming failure of the critical engine at V EF and
recognized at V 1 .
1. The takeoff distance on a dry runway is the greater of the following values:
2. The takeoff distance on wet runway is the greater of the following values:
TOR N-1 DRY – Distance covered from brake release to a point equidistant between the point
at which V LOF is reached and the point at which the aircraft is 35 feet above the takeoff
surface, assuming failure of the critical engine at V EF and recognized at V 1 .
1.15 TOR N Dry – 115% of the distance covered from brake release to a point equidistant
between the point at which V LOF is reached and the point at which the aircraft is 35 feet
above the takeoff surface, assuming all engines operating.
TOR N-1 WET – Distance covered from the brake release to a point at which the aircraft is at
15ft above the takeoff surface, ensuring the V2 speed to be achieved before the airplane
is 35 feet above the takeoff surface, assuming the failure of the critical engine at VEF and
recognized at V 1 . It is equal to TOD N-1 wet .
1.15 TOR N wet - 115 % of the distance covered from brake release to a point equidistant
between the point at which V LOF is reached and the point at which the aircraft is 35 feet
above the takeoff surface, assuming all engines operating.
a. The takeoff run on a dry runway is the greater of the following values:
b. The takeoff run on a wet runway is the greater of the following values:
Takeoff Run is equal to the takeoff distance, whatever the takeoff surface (dry or
wet).
With a wet runway, the takeoff run with one-engine inoperative is always equal to
the takeoff distance with one engine-out. The clearway does not give any
performance benefit on a wet runway, as the TOR is always limiting (TORA less than
TODA).
• Accelerate from V EF to V 1 assuming the critical engine fails at V EF and the pilot
takes the first action to reject the takeoff at V 1
• Accelerate the airplane with all engines operating to V 1 , assuming the pilot takes
the first action to reject the takeoff at V 1
ASD N-1 wet – Same definition as ASD N-1 dry except the runway is wet
ASD N wet – Same definition as ASD N Dry except the runway is wet
ASD wet = max of {ASD dry , ASD N-1 wet , ASD N wet }
A. Regulations demand that the actual take-off mass must permit minimum regulatory climb
gradients to be complied with to reach 1000 AAL, or higher for obstacle clearance. The
different phases of this take-off flight path are called segments.
B. The regulatory take-off flight path, in case of an engine failure extends from the point the
aircraft passes through the screen height, up to 1000 feet above the take-off surface or
higher for obstacle clearance.
NOTE: The point 0 indicates the 35ft height point on the flight path.
Gross Flight Path (demonstrated) performance is the performance the operator can expect to
achieve, when the aircraft is flown to the manufacturers recommended procedures.
Net Flight Path performance represents the gross flight path performance degraded by legally
specified amount. This is a function ojn the number of engines (0.8% for a twin engine aircraft
taking-off). Obstacle clearance calculations are based on the Net Flight Path. For enroute
engine failure (drift down procedures), climb capability is degraded by 1.1%.
A. From the beginning of the take-off flight path, 15 or 35 feet above the take-
off surface (end of Take of Distance) to the point at which the gear is fully
retracted. Regulations require that the climb gradient be positive for a two
engine aircraft, with one engine out.
A. From the point at which the gear is fully retracted to the altitude at which
the flaps and slats start being retracted (level-off height).
A. This is the engine-out acceleration height, which must be at least 400 AAL.
The acceleration altitude may be higher due to obstacle clearance
requirements or due to Cold Weather correction. It may be lower due to the
maximum acceleration altitude limitation.
B. The third segment is used to accelerate in level flight to the optimum speed,
retracting the flaps and slats to the clean configuration. The excess energy
3.10 INTRODUCTION

selects Extended forward, the computation will be conservative.
B. The “Auto Conf” option provides the results relative to the configuration that permits:
1. To land at the Landing weight in input (if one Conf leads to a landing limited by the
performance), or,
2. To get the shortest Runway Length (i.e Conf Full) if both Configurations permit to land
the landing weight.
Note: The Approach Configuration is not accessible as it is linked to the Landing Configuration.
Landing Configuration FULL gives Approach configuration 3 and Landing
Configuration 3 gives Approach Configuration 2.
B. Anti-ice system increases engine bleed and thus reduces the available thrust. As a result,
the landing distance is increased and the Go Around Climb Gradient is reduced.
B. The minimum regulatory approach climb gradient with one engine out, for twin engine
aircraft is 2.5%. This applies for Normal Approach (CAT I) or CAT II.
A. The VPilot field (Vapp increment) is used by the pilot to increase the approach speed for

B. The results given for a Dispatch computation are the following (1st page):
1. LDG CONF: The RESULTS panel displays the Landing Configuration selected by the
User in the Conditions panel or the results of the optimization with the AUTO CONF
option. When AUTO CONF is selected, the Landing Performance is determined for
CONF 3 (Go Around inf CONF 2) and CONF FULL (Go Around in CONF 3).
a. If Landing is possible for both conditions, then the results for CONF FULL are
displayed.
b. If Landing is possible only in CONF FULL (respectively CONF 3) then the results for
CONF FULL (respectively CONF 3) are displayed.
2. VAPP: VAPP is the aircraft approach speed considered for the Landing computation,
50 ft above the runway surface. VAPP is defined from the VLS, with the addition of
speed increment due to the wind correction or induced by the effect of Autothrust or
Ice Accretion. It is detailed in the additional results page.
4. MLW (PERF): The maximum performance-limited Landing weight MLW (PERF) is the
maximum weight that complies with all regulatory requirements at Landing.
Note: The MLW (PERF) may be higher than the certified MLW, but the aircraft
must not be dispatched with an estimated Landing weight at
destination higher than the certified MLW.
5. REQUIRED LDG DIST: The Required LDG DIST is the result of the Actual Landing
distance with the regulatory margins depending on the Runway state. The RLD must
be lower or equal to the Landing Distance Available on the runway. The RLD is
displayed on the runway length.

certified landing weight; a message indicates that the certified weight is exceeded and
that an Overweight Landing is attempted. The message asks for confirmation.
3.30.10 ANTI-ICE
B. Compared to the A-ICE selection list applicable to DISPATCH, the list for IN-FLIGHT
computation presents one more possibility: Ice Accretion. This selection means Engine
and Wing Anti-Ice with conditions of Ice Accretion.
Note: If “IN-FLIGHT” and “ICE ACCRETION” is selected, when the user changes the computation
to “DISPATCH”, then the Anti-Ice choice is automatically changed to “Engine & Wing”
with a warning pop-up message.
A. The field Landing CONF stands for landing configuration and opens a list box that gives the
choice between CONF FULL and CONF 3.
B. Below maximum landing weight, the approach CONF is not accessible. It is automatically
selected when the landing configuration is set. Landing CONF FULL gives approach CONF
3, and landing CONF 3 gives approach CONF 2.
C. Above maximum landing weight, and with landing CONF 3 selected, the approach climb
can be set to CONF 2 or 1+F in some aircraft type.
B. Whatever the aircraft status (with or without ECAM alert), the VAPP computation will by
default be compliant with the FMS computation and take into account the selection of
autothrust, the aircraft CG, ice accretion and wind. The user can still enter a speed
increment (VPilot).
3.30.50 REVERSERS
Note: If Pilot selects “NO”, it means that reversers are in IDLE reverse thrust.
3.30.60 MEL/CDL/ECAM
B. For the MEL and CDL selections, refer to “Dispatch” computation for information.
C. The ECAM alerts contain a list of the possible inoperative systems that lead to an

message in red color is displayed to notify the user that the landing is not
authorized. The outputs that are limiting for the landing are displayed in red
color.
c. The aircraft cannot land at this Landing Weight. The Landing Weight must be
reduced at least to the value of MLW (PERF).
2. Landing possible.
b. The Landing application computes the Landing distance (LD) and Factored
Landing Distance (F-LD) associated to the LW.
iii. Under special circumstances (Emergency), the flight crew may disregard the
1.15 margin.
a. LDG CONF: The RESULTS panel displays the Landing Configuration selected by the
User in the Conditions panel or the results of the optimization with the AUTO
CONF option. When AUTO CONF is selected, the Landing Performance is
determined for CONF 3 (Go Around inf CONF 2) and CONF FULL (Go Around in
CONF 3).
i. If Landing is possible for both conditions, then the results for CONF FULL are
displayed.
ii. If Landing is possible only in CONF FULL (respectively CONF 3) then the results
for CONF FULL (respectively CONF 3) are displayed.
b. VAPP: VAPP is the aircraft approach speed considered for the Landing
computation, 50 ft above the runway surface. VAPP is defined from the VLS, with
the addition of speed increment due to the wind correction or induced by the
effect of Autothrust or Ice Accretion. It is detailed in the additional results page.
b. Limitation Code – The Limitation code of the landing performance. This limits the
landing weight of the aircraft. Several regulatory requirements can limit the
Landing performance. The requirements that limit performance in specific cases
are identified in the computation results via limitation codes. The following table
indicates the various codes used for the Landing limitations:
c. SPEEDS:
iii. ∆V Pilot
iv. VAPP determination as it can be computed from the QRH is displayed to the
user.
B. The results given for an In-Flight computation with ECAM alert are the following:
1. FLAPS LVR POS: Some ECAM alerts require a fixed Flaps Lever position for Landing.
For these items, the fixed lever position is displayed in the 1st page of the RESULTS
panel. For other in-flight failures, the Flaps Lever position displayed is the one
selected by the User.
2. LD: The Landing Distance calculated according to the forecasted conditions and the
selected aircraft system failures.
3. VAPP: The aircraft approach speed considered for the Landing computation. When an
ECAM alert is selected, VAPP is defined from VREF (VLS in CONF FULL), with the
addition of speed increments:
i. Vref is by definition the VLS in CONF FULL of the aircraft, and is used as the
reference speed for landing computations with the in-flight failures.
ii. Vref corresponds to the speed increment due to the failure as it appears in
the QRH.
4. Swiping on the next page (Page 2 of results screen) will give the LIST of INOP SYSTEMS
in accordance to the selected ECAM Alert.
3.40.10 DEFINITIONS
Note 1: Use of reverse thrust significantly reduces stopping distances on wet & contaminated
runways. The effect of reverse thrust on a dry runway is in the region of 2% at sea
level.
Note 2: The Factored In-Flight Landing Distance (FLD) can in some cases, and in particular on
contaminated runways, exceed the RLD considered at dispatch.
The requirements for dispatch remain unchanged and are based on the Regulatory
Landing Distance (RLD). However, when arrival conditions are expected to be
marginal it is recommended to make a preliminary calculation of LD or FLD at
dispatch in order to nominate suitable destination alternates.

A. The certification rules require that the landing mass must not exceed:
2. The landing mass determined by climb gradient requirements in the approach and
landing configuration. This is referred to as the Landing Mass (Approach Climb Limit).
a. The still air landing weight on the most favourable runway (longest runway).
b. The aeroplane will land on the runway most likely to be assigned considering the
probable wind speed and direction and the ground handling characteristics of the
aeroplane, and considering other conditions such as landing aids and terrain.
2. The allowable landing mass on the shorter runway is limited to the still air landing
mass on the longest runway.
1. “For instrument approaches with a missed approach gradient greater than 2.5% an
operator shall verify that the expected landing mass of the aeroplane allows a missed
approach with a climb gradient equal to or greater than the applicable missed
approach gradient in the one-engine inoperative missed approach configuration and
speed.”
2. “For instrument approaches with decision heights below 200 ft, an operator must
verify that the expected landing mass of the aeroplane allows a missed approach
gradient of climb, with the critical engine failed and with the speed and configuration
used for go-around of at least 2.5%, or the published gradient, whichever is greater.”
1. Landing Climb limit is the maximum weight at which a gradient capability of 3.2% can
be achieved under the following configuration: landing flaps, gear down, both engines
at maximum go-around thrust. This is never limiting on a twin jet aircraft.
Landing Requirements
2. “The aeroplane meets the climb requirements of approach Climb gradient (2.1%) and
landing climb gradient at maximum take-off-weight, less the actual or computed
weight of the fuel necessary for a 15 minute flight comprised of a take-off, go-around,
and landing at the airport of departure”

O. Information button
Listed below are the commonly asked questions by the pilots in the usage of the iPad
applications.
• In case of application hang-up, double tap the home button and slide app the
application. Re-open the application and it should be okay. If this does not fix the
problem, restart the iPad.
B. One application has an update but is not continuing in download, what might have caused
this?
• This is due to the internet is not that strong. It is advisable to use home wifi or
company wifi or LTE as long as the signal is strong.
C. When abroad, I am afraid that I will be charged for roaming charges. How can I turn this
off?
• Go to Settings and look for the Touch ID and passcode. Follow the steps in placing
finger print recognition.
• The camera application can only be used when using the boxer application (Company
email application).
G. Can I download some applications that can be useful for me like weather application etc.?
• The device does not allow user download of any application. Only the EFB
administrator can install approved applications. We are currently exploring additional
applications that will help the crew in their day to day tasks.
• Never update the IOS version without an email notification from the EFB
administrator. The EFB administrator will always give the time on when the IOS
version can be updated.
7.10.20 SKYBREATHE
A. I typed in SkyBreathe application my IAMCEB username and password but the application
did not open, is there something wrong with the password or internet connection?
• In the SkyBreathe login page, type only the company ICAO “CEB” and another window
will open. Also ensure that the iPad is connected to a stable reliable internet
connection.
B. I accidentally tap the “X” in SkyBreathe and I cannot open the SkyBreathe application. Do
you have an alternative on this?
• After the user has logged-in, the user must tap on his/her name and the option to
“Open IOS Application” will be available.
C. When I logged in to the SkyBreathe application, there are no flights under my account?
• When the pilot have no flights its either the pilot is a new pilot for CEB or an error in
the system. When this happens, email CEB Fuel
Analyst cebfuelanalyst@cebupacificair.com for clarification.
D. You mentioned before that there should be little maps on climb, cruise and descent but
when I checked this, there are no maps that I can tap.
• When there are no maps in climb, cruise or descent, this means that the internet
connection in the device is weak. Ensure that the device has a strong and reliable
internet connection.
• The flights for a user usually takes sometime before it appears in the skybreathe
application. Wait at least 1 week for the flights to be updated.
• This is due to pressing the “Do not allow access” in the initial setup. To enable this, go
to settings>privacy >location services and look for eCharts EFB. The setting should be
“While using the app”.
B. For some pilots, they have the option to reverse the departure and arrival in the route
screen. How can I enable this on the device?
• Go to the settings in the Navtech E-Charts and enable the “Reverse ARR and DEP
aerodromes”. Doing this will have the “Switch button”.
C. When we are connected to LTE, it seems that I cannot download the charts update.
• To enable this option, go again to Setting in the Navtech E-Charts and look for
“Disable download over mobile provider” and ensure this is turned off. “On” option is
colored green while “Off” option is colored black.
D. Even with an updated Navtech database, there is still a red information that my database
has an update but when I tap on “Available updates” it informs me that No packages
available, what is the problem with this.
• This is just a visual error. The user must force close the application and re-open it and
this will fix the issue.
A. The content locker is asking for a username and password but when I input it on the
device it would not accept.
• This is issue is caused by the pilots need to update the password. Please note that as
per company policy, passwords must be renewed every 3 months. In order not to see
this, the pilot must update the password upon seeing the notification of password
change. To change the password, the pilot can go to https://adssp.cebupacificair.com
to change the password.
• When Content Locker requires the username and password and have already been
changed using the ADSSP website, then use the new password and content locker
should be working.
• Yes, you can save PDF files but only important PDF files from the Boxer application.
The file can be saved in the “personal content”.
C. I have a good reference PDF file, I want to share this to all iPad users, can I do this?
• The pilot must first consult Training department (Chief Pilot – Training) if this can be
distributed to all pilots. The Chief Pilot will then inform Flight Technical Support that
the PDF file will be added to the Content locker.
• When the pilot has changed aircraft rating, he/she should inform EFB administrator
(CEB IPAD SUPPORT cebipadsupport@cebupacificair.com) to change the group setting
of the user.
E. I am now an instructor pilot and from the user guide, I should have the instructor folder in
the content locker, what should I do?
A. I cannot download the Airbus update in the AIB manager. When I input my IAMCEB
username and password, it gives me an error. Can you please check?
a. Server: https://cebflysmart.cebupacificair.com:8443
c. Password: 111111
• Ensure correct spelling of the server and your username. The password is not using
the IAMCEB password but the password mentioned above.
B. I have an “error occurred during connection…” pop-up. Can you please look into this?
• When you have encountereed this error, ensure that you are connected to a stable
and reliable wifi and it is a must that the download is not interrupted. Pilots are
advised to use home wifi or company wifi.
C. I am curious regarding the recent update, what are the changes of the WXXXX version?
• To check the update, please look at the “Read Release Note” for the reasons of the
update.
• Airbus recommendation with this one is to fill all the inputs before clicking on the
runway. If the application is still blocked, force close it and start it again.
• Please also note that if you see the word “TOT” beside the runway designation, it
means that this is the full runway length. This is done to fix the issue of the RWY
selection during landing.
• This issue is raised with Airbus. For a workaround, use the modify runway by tapping
the Runway image and selecting “modify” runway.
