A319/320 taxiway restrictions
Hi I can't seem to find a definite answer from the fcom and fctm about :
- the taxiway restriction for A319/320 (outer main gear wheel span / wingspan restricion), is it a CODE C or D? (not wake category or approach category).
I've googled it, but, still unsure. I'm guessing its code C?
- with reference to the above, what is the outer main gear wheel span of a320? Cant find the info in fcom but there is a figure 7.59m for wheel span (the figure looks like its inner main wheel).
-last, but certainly not least, 45m is the minimum runway width. Where can i find the limit for minimum taxyway width for a319/320?
Many thanks.

In my outfit we have a taxiway width limit of 15m. This is company limit, don't know what it is based on...
BTW, min RWY width is 30m. However, everything below 45m is considered "narrow runway operation". Details can be found in FCOM-PRO-SPO.
Hope this helps...

Airbus produce a document called something like "aircraft characteristics for airport planning". All answers are in there.
I'm away from my computer, will post the correct title if no joy in locating it.
