3. Airbus Operational Landing Distances FAA TALPA ARC – Runway Assessment Matrix Reporting Code Measured Friction Reported Braking Action DOWNGRADE ONLY Primary Assessment Differentiation by Temperature PiRep Guidelines

4. Always start assessment with contaminant type and depth • Use additional information to • Degrade to lower friction code • Never upgrade • Careful with friction reports • May be optimistic on fluid contaminants • Do not hesitate to request additional information from ATC Airbus Operational Landing Distances Procedure

5. Airbus Operational Landing Distances Examples Compact Snow Braking Action Medium Wet in Heavy Rain Storm Cells above Airport Compact Snow OAT 1ºC Dewpoint 1ºC Dry Snow over Ice, Braking Action Medium

6. Airbus Operational Landing Distances TALPA Rules in a Nutshell • Provide Runway Status Reports • Using Matrix and associated methodology • In a performance oriented way • Publish Realistic Landing Performance Data • In accordance with agreed rules • For all supported aircraft types • Make Systematic Landing Performance Check • In all cases except for dry runway • Apply a 15% margin to the result

7. Publication for in-flight use • Unfactored certified reference distances used for dispatch • For incomplete list of contaminant types and depths • Coverage of loose snow by equivalence only • Inconsistent assumptions between dry/wet and contaminants for airborne phase • Operators must define their own margins • Pilots have difficulty in using published data with diverse runway condition reporting methods Airbus Operational Landing Distances Situation for Airbus – BEFORE

8. Airbus Operational Landing Distances Airbus Situation – AFTER • For all Airbus aircraft • At least “Minimum Compliance” with TALPA ARC • Cover all 6 friction levels • Accountability for • Temperature effect • Runway slope effect • Matrix as entry-point • All Performance data sources • Flight Ops Engineer Software • Flight Manual • Operational Documentation • Electronic Flight Bag • Training Material

15. Airbus Operational Landing Distances Conclusion • Airbus adopts TALPA ARC standard for in-flight landing performance including for non-normal and in ROPS • Realistic computation basis for all winter runway conditions • In current environment, pilot must compensate for non yet compliant Runway Condition Reporting • Major safety step change requires SHARED Global Assessment & Reporting STANDARDS
