getting to grips with
aircraft performancemonitoring
FOREWORD
The purpose of this brochure is to provide airline flight operations with some recommendations on the way to regularly monitor their aircraft performance.
This brochure was designed to provide guidelines for aircraft performance monitoring based on the feedback obtained from many operators and on the knowledge of Airbus aircraft and systems.
Should there be any discrepancy between the information given in this brochure and that published in the applicable AFM, FCOM, AMM or SB, the latter prevails.
Airbus would be eager to work with some airlines on an ongoing application of this projected performance monitoring system well in advance of its anticipated use on the A380 program.
Airbus encourages to submit any suggestions or remarks concerning this brochure to:
