A320 engine idle modes
 

Two questions please…

Can anyone please tell me where the different idle modes are described and activated. Ie. Ground, flight and approach idle?

Second…. The bank angle varied with speed and configuration, I know, but where is this described?

Thanks..

Try the FCOM Tech manual, Try Chapter 70 - Power Plant. This has most of the details on idle parameters. Particular points - Approach idle higher than ground idle, Reverse idle higher than forward idle. Hope it helps.


Regarding bank angle protections, try flight controls chapter of FCOM Tech manual. These are described for most flight modes, ie., Normal Law, Direct Law, ALternate Law and ARRGGHHHH Law.
