Applicable to: ALL
GENERAL
The preparation for descent and approach consists of :
‐ Entering PERF and WIND data
‐ Defining the lateral and vertical F-PLN
‐ Checking the tuning (auto or manual) of the appropriate navaids
After receiving the arrival information, the pilot should use the following procedure.

REVISION OF LATERAL F-PLN
PERFORM a lateral revision at destination
SELECT an ARRIVAL
SELECT an APPROACH, a STAR, a TRANSITION, a VIA.
When the pilot selects successive items, the page are automatically sequenced. But pressing the
[→] key brings up the APPR and STAR page successively.

CHECK the temporary revision including the missed approach.
INSERT the temporary revision, [6R] key.
REVISION OF VERTICAL FLIGHT PLAN
CHECK the speed and altitude constraints as displayed on the ND. (Use the CSTR pusbutton).
ENTER any additional speed or altitude constraints using the vertical revision page.
In order not to be too fast when commencing approach, you may insert a speed constraint at the
FAF (Final Approach Fix).
When all computations are completed :
REVIEW the flight plan using the approach chart.
When the destination runway changes and if the previously selected STAR is compatible with the
new runway, the system selects it automatically in the temporary F-PLN. If the pilot has entered
any revision or constraint on this STAR, it will not be transferred. The pilot must reenter it in order
to retain it for this approach.
ENTERING THE WINDS FOR DESCENT
Refer to DSC-22_20-30-20-20-B WIND - TEMPERATURE - QNH - GENERAL.
PRESELECTING A MANAGED SPEED/MACH
As long as the descent phase is not active, the PERF DES page may either be used to select a
speed, or a Mach number, or both, to replace the optimum descent speed.

The Flight Guidance Computer then uses the entered speed, instead of the optimum speed for
computing the descent profile.
When the system switches to the descent phase, it sets the MANAGED target speed to the
entered speed. From there, the speed may only be modified by using the FCU selector knob.
Once in descent phase, the pilot cannot modify the MANAGED speed again.
PROCEDURE
PRESS ‐ the PERF key on the MCDU.
‐ SELECT the “NEXT PHASE” prompt.
‐ WRITE the descent speed into the scratchpad and ENTER it.
The 3L field displays the imposed managed speed value.

MODIFICATION OF THE CABIN RATE
PROCEDURE
PRESS the PERF key on MCDU
WRITE the new cabin rate into the scratchpad
ENTER it in the [ 4R ] field.
ENTERING THE APPROACH DATA
From PERF DES page, SELECT “NEXT PHASE” [ 6R ] key to display the APPR page.
ENTER QNH, TEMP, WIND at destination (magnetic or true North reference depending on the
airport’s reference). MDA/MDH or DH
(The PFD displays the MDA/MDH or DH only when the distance to destination is less than
250 nm).
CHECK and, if necessary, MODIFY
• LDG CONF (landing configuration)
• Vapp (the FM-computed value may be modified)
• TRANS ALT (transition altitude)

The scratchpad displays “ENTER DEST DATA” if the approach page is not completed when the
aircraft is 180 nm from destination.
SELECT “NEXT PHASE” in order to display the GO AROUND page.
CHECK and, if necessary, MODIFY the THR RED ALT and ACC ALT.
SELECTING THE RADIO NAVAIDS
CHECK, or SELECT, the appropriate NAVAIDS for the approach.
For an ILS procedure, the ILS will be autotuned.
NDBs must be entered manually.
Note: When the destination has a VOR/DME, enter it manually in the VOR field. Enter
its identifier in the BRG/DIST field of the PROG page. This allows you to perform a
permanent NAV accuracy check.
