A32S FCOM changes: 2018 February release
 

Just got hands on the latest FCOM/QRH + FCTM release. Perhaps we could share what little gems we manage to uncover from it, in a collective manner?

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 COCKPIT PREPARATION: "B" Overhead Panel - ADIRS
. looks like a new paragraph
. no longer hidden in SUP
. the recently added requirement to re-align ALWAYS is removed :D, back to reason (5 NM drift)

PRO-NOR-SOP-06 COCKPIT PREPARATION: "B" Overhead Panel - EXTERIOR LIGHTS
. NAV & LOGO LT 2  is used only when NAV & LOGO LT 1  fails (cool, were they reading the vice-like thread :))


FD over.

Takeoff shift now Should be entered for any intersection departures. Now the manuals say enter it as a reference and reminder.

The one I find interesting - now it’s recommended only to arm FINAL APP for fully managed approaches only when the TO Waypoint is the final descent point (FDP).

There’s also now have the all new All Engines Failure ECAM/QRH procedure, if your company has updated the FWC software.

First time since I fly Airbus I see that there are zero OEB on some of our aircraft!:D
