B. LOCATION
• SIM B2 – ZSHC
• We are using FTC/CAE simulator VN-018 as well as BAA simulator VN-035. This is the first
time we commence training/checking on VN-035, it has slightly different IOS interface
than VN-018. Please refer to the simulator manual on the Instructor and DPE FTP server
to familiarize yourself with it.
• The remaining simulators at both facilities are not to be used unless approved by
GMOT/MAFT.
• For FTC Simulator. Log into Pacific Airlines account on the briefing room’s computer using
this info:
o Username: .\PA (dot backslash PA – no case sensitive)
o Password: A320pacific
I will store our training materials there in case you need to use them.
• Due to COVID-19, Oxygen Masks in the simulator should not be used. There are exercises
on B2 require the use of crew oxygen. Instructor to brief crew the protocol to use
between them.
D. CREW COMBINATION
B2: 1 Set of Crew in 1 simulator section. For correct Running sheet for simulator B2, DPE
will be required to select crew combination (STD: CAPT+FO or Non-STD: CAPT+CAPT/
A320 CYCLIC B2 SIMULATOR - 2023
FO+FO). If Non-STD crew is selected, the running sheets for each captain and FO are
different. DPE select 1 crew member as Captain (FO) 1 and the other as Captain (FO) 2.
E. SIMULATOR B2 – GENERAL
• The LOE in SIM B2 expands on the concept of multiple scenarios, which provide
alternative pathways to achieve desired event(s) as identified in the Matrix.
• There are 4 scenarios to choose from:
(i) DUAL IR + APU FIRE
(ii) DUAL ADR + APU FIRE
(iii) DUAL HYD G+Y (SCENARIO FOR B2 CYCLIC)
(iv) DUAL HYD FAILURE (Should ONLY be selected in T3)
• Even though they are designed with the similar Airbus defined class of equivalence (5) for
their major failures, scenario (i) is very demanding for pilot support role and could be very
good if used to evaluate a more experienced First Officer. The complexity and pressure of
this exercise can be overwhelming for a new cadet. This is only recommendation, DPEs
have the right to use any of these 3 scenarios during an LOE as their discretion.
• With STD Crew Combination with scenarios (i) and (ii) selected, CAPT’s OEI NPA will be
evaluated in the LOE. This is to reduce duplication of exercises and helps time
management.

• In case of an NAV ADR 1+ 2 FAULT , check speed is below VFE or CON
1+F ( 215 kt ) before selecting Flaps 1 : since ADR 1+2 parameter are
lost
• Loss of ADR1 will lead to the loss of the extended functions of the
EGPWS. Loss of ADR2 will lead to both baro reference channels being
Supporting driven by the same FCU channel , so the baro refs should be checked.
Information • Priority task sharing when abnormal situations to fly the aircraft ( AP
1+2 OFF , A/THR OFF ) how to handle control
• At L/G extension ,control revert to direct law in pitch and roll (
automatic trim is inoperative in direct law) . Use small control inputs at
