A320 Ditching QRH
Hello all
my company unfortunately uses their own tech. publications as opposed to Airbus. this has me regularly scratching about certain things we do.
Latest case in point:
in the ditching checklist Airbus directs pilots to set a lading elevation to 00 prior to ditching.
my company has us set the landing elevation to 1000 to ditch with the cabin de-pressurized.e would it b to open the doors and/or windows more easily?
It does make sense to me.
Any idea as to why Airbus wants us to ditch with a cabin that may still be pressurized ? the pressurization schedule has the cabin slightly over pressurized for a normal landing and return to landing elevation pressure shortly after touchdown. Since the ditching P/B is pushed prior to ditching, is this schedule even the same?
