1 CHAPTER 00 GENERAL

1.1 INTRODUCTION

Aegean Operations Manual Airbus A320 Family aircrafts (Part B) includes the IAE engines Airbus A319, A320 and A321. The manual provides crewmembers with information on the technical, procedural and performance characteristics of the Airbus A320 family aircrafts.

Variation specific information is clearly marked for example For A321.

Additional type related information could be found in the different Airbus Manuals, which are split into the FCOM, QRH and FCTM.

1.2 GENERAL

Aegean applies Standard Operating Procedures (SOP) as stated in Section 2 Normal Procedures. In order to fully understand the procedures specified hereafter, pilots must be familiar with standard Airbus philosophies. The Aegean SOPs are complementary procedures to Airbus and represent the operators philosophy in some areas of operation. The following chapters and the Normal Checklist, which is part of this manual, will reflect those areas.

The normal checklist (see Section 2 Normal Checklist), which is on a separate laminated card in the cockpit, forms part of the OM B.

In case of discrepancies between procedures/publications, the priorities are as follows:

OFP Crew Briefing Notes/Remarks FCN Level 1, which are, specified as superseding Operating Manuals Airbus OEBs Company Operations Manuals Airbus FCOM Airbus FCTM The company recognizes that SOPs cannot include all situations and hence in exceptional circumstances the commander or deputy shall act as required by the situation. Pilots joining Aegean from other airlines may have used significantly different SOPs. It is essential that previous company SOPs are discarded and Aegean SOPs adopted.
