[QUOTE=Founder;4082836]What about differences in loading the aircraft compared to the A319? And what about autoland any differences?[QUOTE]

She is nose heavy. Empty one may go over your tailored OPS CG limits (not crossing the AB factory ones, however!) At your preffered off-path summer destination, ask to put all baggage in CPT.4 and distribute passangers evenly through the cabin (to much surprise I did manage to overload 321 to the back, learned thereafter).

Autolands may differ, but that must have been solved by the real engineers 15+ years ago. Yet, for CAT III A with DH (e.i. France) do look into the manuals as the limitations change. Zero on 319 and 18 ft on 321. If the gray matter works.

Yours, FD
