A320 Braking action

[ItsAjob]

I was looking for the Airbus briefing notes on landing on contaminated and wet runways but it appears to have been taken off the Airbus site.

When friction co efficient or braking action is mentioned I understand the only limitation published in fcom 2 is crosswind.

So technically, if braking action poor is reported we have no way of calculating landing distance unless they give us a full contamination depth report?

As Airbus are developing a brake to vacate system for their larger products this seems strange.

Have you asked your Safety Dept?

Contaminated landing distances are in my FCOM. Just look a little harder.

Yes I know the contaminated distances are in the FCOM.

My question was when the tower reports braking action medium, or gives a co efficient, this information does not help us at all except for lowering our crosswind limit.
