8.1 Introduction
This part is meant to serve as a simple A318 Steep Approach Guide to pilots, unfamiliar with all the tools the
provides for such an approach. This part of the guide is edited by a real world A 320 pilot. But still there might be
some deviations from Real World Procedures.
MANAGED MODE
We are using for this “Managed Mode”.
8.2 Settings / Flightplan used for the Tutorial
We are using the A318 for this flight with a ZFW of app. 48.228 kg (80 passengers and 2.000 kg cargo) as well as a
fuel load of 7.419 kg (according to the Load-/Fuel-Planner – in Advanced Mode -).
The flight plan (using FL 310) will be as follows:
Departure: EDDH (Hamburg/Germany) – Runway: 23 – SID: WSR9B
Flight: WSR N125 DOBAK UN125 EEL UN872 PAM UL980 XAMAN L980 LOGAN
Arrival: EGLC (London-City/ Great Britain) Runway: 27 = ILS27 – STAR: SPEA1B
You can manually enter the flight plan or use the existing one EDDHEGLC01. But after loading there is a F-PLAN
DISCONTINUITY between SPEAR (end of STAR SPEA1B) and LSR06 (FINAL). Please CLR it.
8.3 Weather EGLC
The expected METAR data for our approach at EGLC are as follows:
QNH: 1021 HPa
Temperature: 20 degrees C
Wind: At 270 degrees at 7 knots
Please adjust the P3D weather or add-on settings accordingly. If you do not know how to do this then just select
“Fair Weather” in P3D. This weather is perfect for using runway 27, so we will use ILS27 and STAR SPEA1B (marked
in red on the charts you will find in 7.5).
8.4 Checklist- and Copilot Function
We suggest using the Checklist as well as Copilot Function for this flight because then you are fully able to
concentrate on this Steep Approach procedure.
8.5 Flight path and Charts used for this Steep Approach at EGLC Rwy27
The flight path and charts we need for this approach you will find below. Additional charts for this approach can
