It's quite easy to screw up the effectivity in the A330 & A340 manuals in Airnav but this is due to the different weight variants, the A320 should be fairly straightforward so I've no idea how he ended up using a manual for a NEO.
Well, according to the AAIB Preliminary report; the LGW engineer did not even have access to the newer AirnavX.
Perhaps Airbus should only have the latest version available for use!
