Hello guys
I have a question regarding the limitation of A320
the limitation is RUNWAY ALTITUDE = 9200 ft

how about if the runway altitude is 9300 ft ? What should I do in this case?

Thanks for your help

That will be a pressure height limitation.

If you are outside the approved envelope, you don't go, simple as that.

You go to Airbus and get the high altitude modification allowing ops to 14,500'.

9200 is not a performance limitation per se, it's more about all the other systems, some obvious, some less so.

You only fly when the QNH is 1017 or higher.
