    11ADOBL04 December 2010 Use of rudder on Airbus A300-600/A310 (extracted from former FCOM Bulletin N°15/1 – Subject N°40) Reason for issue On February 8th, 2002, the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), in cooperation with the French Bureau d'Enquêtes et d'Analyses (BEA), issued recommendations that aircraft manufacturers re-emphasize the structural certification requirements for the rudder and vertical stabilizer, showing how some maneuvers can result in exceeding design lim- its and even lead to structural failure. The purpose of this Bulletin is to re-emphasize proper operational use of the rudder, highlight certification requirements and rud- der control design characteristics. Yaw control General In flight, yaw control is provided by the rudder, and directional stability is provided by the vertical stabilizer. The rudder and vertical stabilizer are sized to meet the two following objectives: Provide sufficient lateral control of the aircraft during crosswind takeoffs and landings, within the published crosswind limits (refer to FCOM Operating Limitations chapter). Provide positive aircraft control under conditions of engine failure and maximum asymmetric thrust, at any speed above Vmcg (minimum control speed - on ground). The vertical stabilizer and the rudder must be capable of generating sufficient yawing moments to maintain directional control of the aircraft. The rudder deflection, necessary to achieve these yawing moments, and the resulting sideslip angles place significant aerodynamic loads on the rudder and on the vertical stabilizer. Both are designed to sustain loads as prescribed in the JAR/FAR 25 certification requirements which define several lateral loading conditions (maneuver, gust loads and asymmetric loads due to engine failure) leading to the required level of structural strength.
