FAST / NUMBER 20 1 or those pilots unfamiliar with the Airbus Industrie and sys- F tem design philosophy, it is appropriate to look at a few issues which are perceived to be significant and may cause uncertainty. The sources for these notes are broad, and include feedback from more than 60 operators of A319s, A320s, A321s, A330s and A340s. Experience with cross crew qualification provides a further practical basis for the information. AIRBUS FLY-BY-WIRE AIRCRAFT AT A GLANCE A PILOT’S FIRST VIEW Captain Chris Krahe Vice President Operational Flight Group Training and Flight Operations Support Airbus Industrie Customer Services Directorate

Pilots tend to be rather conservative in their outlook; a healthy quality in aviation. Because Airbus Industrie’s fly-by-wire technology represents a significant new step in design philosophy, pilots have sometimes taken a cynical view of the new concepts involved, especially when not all the facts are available to them. The adjustments which were necessary with the ad- vent of jet and swept transports are now a matter of history. The Airbus fly-by-wire family represents another step forward, requiring simi- lar changes of outlook. The new generation flight deck

In the early 1980s, however, secondary flight control design began to utilise electrical signals from the control lever via computers to the hy- draulic actuators of the surfaces. The new fly-by-wire system extended this technology to primary flight controls. The conventional was no longer needed because the flight deck com- mands were transmitted electronically. It was replaced by a smaller lever, the sidestick. The new system reduced the aircraft’s weight, the mechanical com- plexity and cut costs. For the pilot, the system enhances advantages mainly in terms of precision, safety and ergonomy. Through the mediating role of the computers which know the full scope of the technical and aerodynamic capabili- ties of the aircraft, the pilot can exploit these to the full without the risk of ex- ceeding the flight envelope.

Whereas A319, A320, A321 are cov- ered by the same , the other family members A330 and A340 each have their own type rating. However, all these Airbus fly-by-wire aircraft share a lot of commonality. Following the FAA Advisory Circular AC 120-53,

CONCLUSION

As can be seen from these notes, changing to the A319/A320/A321 or A330 from other types (other than A340) will re- quire some change of operational philosophy. These aircraft can be flown precisely and smoothly with little effort, and can, therefore, create a sense of considerable satisfaction. However, under extreme conditions when, for example, severe weather and abnormalities combine, it is most important to be aware of the differences. Under stress, reversion to certain well-ingrained pilot instincts, such as riding the controls, is not helpful in any fly-by-wire aircraft. In order to establish the new skills necessary, it is important to unlearn some traditional ones. Understanding the importance of this, and maintaining an open mind, are important attitudes to bring to training courses. Airbus aircraft are products of large commitments of research, development and testing by some of the best aeronauti- cal designers and engineers from four countries. The new generation aircraft (A319 through A330/A340) have now accu- mulated large amounts of in-service experience over seven million flight hours. They are quality products. Pilots flying these aircraft will find that they have embarked on a most enjoyable and professionally rewarding part of their aviation careers. ■

Also products that should retain a green colour during transit, such as ba- nanas and peppers, should not be trans- ported with ethylene producers. Odours given off by apples, citrus fruits, onions, pineapples and fish are readily absorbed by dairy produce, eggs, meats and nuts. Apples and pears may acquire an earthy taste if trans- ported together with potatoes. As will be appreciated from the above, the particular requirements of the various products can limit the possi- bility to carry mixed loads in one cargo compartment, and careful selection is required when making-up loads of per- ishable goods. This problem can be made all the more difficult when a planned load does not arrive on time.

14 FAST / NUMBER 20 Because some of the graphs are cargo compartment specific, it has been nec- essary to make future editions of the LTM aircraft model specific. This new method has been incorpo- rated into the A310 Livestock Transportation Manual (LTM) - issue date Jan 95 - and will be progressively incorporated into the Livestock Transportation manuals for the remain- ing aircraft models. To assist operators who use comput- erised documentation, Airbus Industrie has agreed with IATA that this calcula- tion method should be made available in diskette form. The conversion from a paper form into a diskette is being made through the IATA Live Animals and Perishables Board.

When the dogs are happy, the owner is happy too! SOME TOPICAL TIPS

➤ To safely transport live animals the cargo compartment must be provided with the optional ventilation and heating system(s). ➤ Do not mix live animals with perishable goods in the same cargo compartment. ➤ Do not carry animals that are natural enemies in the same cargo compartment. ➤ Refer to the current edition IATA Live Animals Regulations for information on container requirements, labelling, handling procedures, documentation and general requirements.

LATEST NEWS!

At the last meeting of IATA Live Animals and Perishable Cargo Board, held in Montreal, Canada, 8 through 10 October 96, a demonstration was given of a proto- type diskette for making the live animal calculations. The final version of this diskette version should be available later next year, and will allow such calculations to be made in a matter of seconds. In addition to making calculations for the number of live animals that can be safely carried, the calculation method developed by Airbus Industrie can also be used to calculate the quantities of perishable cargo which can be carried, and the compatibility of different perishables. ■

FAST / NUMBER 20 15 IMPROVED WATER AND WASTE SYSTEM PROTECTION As operation of the Airbus family of aircraft is progressively expanding, the likelihood of some of them operating in extreme cold weather areas around the world increases. To ensure that Airbus aircraft can operate efficiently in these conditions, cold weather trials were conducted in Canada, Northern Sweden and Siberia.

FROM FREEZING hat is meant by "Cold Soak" and how does the aircraft manufacturer deter- W mine the effects of extreme cold weather conditions? With the introduction of each new aircraft, or new airline operating within these areas the aircraft turnaround times and dispatch reliability must be deter- mined. To evaluate the effects of extreme cold is a complex task and is made even more so due to the fact that the aircraft’s passenger and cargo doors must remain open during the turnaround operations! For those of us that live in temperate climates, it is difficult to imagine how cold the ground temperature conditions can be. We often hear on the TV weather fore- cast the subject of wind-chill factor and the effect the wind speed has on the air tempera- ture. In certain circumstances the combined ef- fect of freezing conditions coupled with the wind-chill factor can cause the effective temper- ature to fall below minus 50 ¡C! It became apparent to Airbus Industrie that there was a real need to carry out a detailed investigation into the effects of cold weather, and so, with the delivery of an A310 to in the early 1980s the cold weather programme was launched. This programme was extended to the A320 when took delivery of their first aircraft. As with all aircraft manufacturers, Airbus Industrie quickly realised that the protection from extreme weather conditions would not be an easy task. In fact, to prevent the water and the waste system from freezing requires a balance be- tween the required electrical power, the extra weight gener- ated by the heaters, control sys- tems and the insulation, compared to the extra operations costs to the operators of such a system. Listed below is the request received by Airbus Industrie from Air Canada for their A320 fleet operating under maximum ambient air temperature minus 40¡C and maximum wind speed 50km/h: ● All the cargo doors and one cabin door open for 90 minutes; ● Two additional cabin doors open for 30 minutes; ● Water and waste tanks containing any quantity, up to full; ● APU shut-down; ● Aircraft electrically powered. Based on the above typical customer criteria, for “cold weather” operators and the experience gained from cold weather campaigns, this article develops the philosophy adopted by Airbus Industrie for the existing aircraft.

CONCLUSION

With more than 1500 Airbus Aircraft in service around the world operated by more than 140 customers, work still continues to provide even better solutions. The results from the various cold soak tests coupled with the in-service data are still being evalu- ated. From this mass of information more is being learnt on air-flow and temperature change, further adding to our ability to design systems that combat problems associated with freezing conditions. Further research is under way to review the principle of the water and waste system protection from freezing, which in turn may lead to provision of standard aircraft with full cold weather operation capability in a future programme. ■

FAST / NUMBER 20 23 Measurements of air quality were performed in the past. However, there was insufficient knowledge about the following contaminants: ● particle countings within fresh and recirculation air and in the cabin, ● types and amount of microbiological contaminations, ● types and amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC). Thus, Daimler-Benz Airbus and Airbus Industrie decided to perform measurements during in-service flights of Airbus aircraft. The study of these three types of contaminants, the measuring principles and the analysis of the results are described in this article.

CONCLUSIONS

All evaluated results show neither relevance to health risks nor - with the exception of nicotine in the smoker section - a comfort restriction. That shows the high level of cabin air quality of Airbus aircraft and the sufficient performance of the air conditioning system to keep the air quality at these levels. The following main statements can be given as conclusions of this study: ● In case of using HEPA filters the recirculation air is substantially less contaminated with particles than fresh air, even during cruise. ● The particles are emitted by the occupants, mainly by smokers. ● Bacteria types and concentrations do not represent any health risk. ● The bacteria concentration in the supply air is at the level of operating theatre recommendations. ● Mould spores as measured only in very low concentrations are irrelevant to health considerations. ● The only health risk may arise from person to person contact (droplet infection). ● All detected VOCs are found to be in similar concentrations detected in other indoor spaces or lower and do not influ- ence health and - except for nicotine in the smoker section - comfort. ● The concentrations of VOCs depend on the flight phase due to their origin (e.g. kerosene smell on ground, smoking in flight). ■

FAST / NUMBER 20 31 Coming in from the cold... Part II

Operating aircraft in extremely cold weather is never easy and it was much more difficult in 1925...

Roald Amundsen with five companions set out for the North Pole in May 1925 in two Dornier Wal flying boats. These aircraft with their large wing-like floats were judged capable of landing on ice as well as on water. They were powered by two Rolls Royce V-12 Eagle engines mounted back to back.

Levelling the ice field to prepare a "runway"

The expedition came to a halt about 250km from the Pole and one aircraft was lost. The crews had to prepare a runway before they could take-off for their return flight. Their problems did not stop there. An aileron jammed forcing them to make a sea landing. Eventually they got back to Norway four weeks after their departure.
