A320 X-Feed and Landing
Hi there guys !
Please, could you give me your opinion in the following ?
Let's say you're in an OEI scenario, just about to pass the IAF of the procedure (after a previous OEI go-around), and get an ADV on FUEL SYSTEM with the drifting parameter being the fuel quantity in the dead engine's wing (live engine wing with something around 750kgs of fuel).
Would you delay the approach to perform the FUEL IMBALANCE procedure ?
As per the limitations, there are no controlabilities issues caused by such situation. Also, if you elect to perform the procedure at this time you will end up landing with the x-feed valve opened and the pumps of the live engine off. I never saw any kind of note/caution/warning/limitation saying that such is not allowed, but it feels odd for me. If I recall correctly it's forbidden in the 737 (yeap, I know, two different worlds).
Or would you just start the approach having in mind / discussing with your colleague that the IMBALANCE QRH procedure is one of the first things you will have to perform following another GA ?
Thanks in advance.
