Key Systems Simulated

Checklist item triggers & flows

High Thrust-to-Weight Aerodynamics
Shorter body with full-sized A320 wing provides remarkable climb performance and high-altitude cruise capability (FL410).
Steep Approach Capability Modification
Special software mode allowing controlled spoiler deployment on approach to maintain speed down steep 5.5° glide paths into London City.
Airbus Fly-by-Wire Side Stick Architecture
Independent left and right side sticks with autopilot takeover priority and synthetic feel.
Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring (ECAM)
Automated monitoring of electrical, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems with automated emergency action sequences.

CHIEF INSTRUCTOR BRIEFING & OPERATIONAL NOTES

The A319 has high excess thrust and climbs like a rocket compared to its larger siblings. Watch your speed limits below 10,000 feet (250 kts restriction), as the engines will accelerate the aircraft very rapidly if climb pitch is not maintained.

AIRCRAFT TRIVIA & HIGHLIGHTS
1FACT #1

British Airways famously flew an all-business-class A319 (Club World) non-stop across the Atlantic from London City to New York JFK under flight number BA1.

2FACT #2

The A319 has the highest operational ceiling of the baseline A320 family (FL410 vs FL390 on the A320/A321).

3FACT #3

The Airbus Corporate Jet variant (ACJ319) can fly for over 15 hours non-stop with VIP passengers.
