Briefing “Steep Approach”: with the following key points:
• Landing configuration (STEEP APPR P/B pushed + Gear Down + CONF FULL + SPD BRKS lever
position FULL)
• VLSPFD=VREF+8Kt in steep approach configuration
• Automatic call-outs “Standby / Standby / Flare”
• PM call-out “Flare” at 60ft RA for redundancy with automatic “Flare” call-out at 63ft
• Retard thrust levers to IDLE at flare initiation
• Below 2000ft, Final Approach interrupted for Amber or Red warning except if immediate landing is
safer (fire or smoke)
• In case of Go Around, SPD BRKS lever must be retracted by PF (redundant action with automatic

Descent to Altitude: Before the T/D (Top of Descent) point (near REFSO) is reached (marked on the
ND flight path by a white arrow showing down), the altitude should be set to 2.000 feet. But do not
push the knob before T/D is not reached
17.
Initiating Descent: There are various methods for descent but we will use:
Managed Mode:. Reaching T/D or if the T/D marker disappears or DECELERATE is displayed on the
PFD (whatever happens first): Just push the knob. The aircraft will now start to descend automatically
according to the flight path calculated in the MCDU – F-PLN.
