                             Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff




   I   Introduction


       This Flight Operations Briefing Note provides an overview of:
       •   The operational guidelines to follow in response to a stall warning at takeoff,
           for an improved understanding of recovery techniques
       •   The factors that lead to stall warning activation at takeoff, and
       •   The corresponding prevention strategies.

       Flight crew situational awareness, in the event of a stall warning, is essential to
       the successful application of recovery techniques. This is particularly true for aircraft
       that do not have full protection throughout the flight envelope. This heightened
       awareness is principally necessary at takeoff, when the risk of ground contact exists.

       Note:
       This Flight Operations Briefing Note is primarily designed for aircraft that do not have
       flight envelope protection (e.g. A300/A310/A300-600).
       However, the key points at the end of this briefing note are also applicable to all aircraft
       types, with or without flight envelope protection. For this reason, all pilots are invited to
       read this document.

   II   Background Information


  II.1 Stall Warning Definition

        Airworthiness regulations require three levels of protection against stall:
        •   Adequate speed margin (minimum speed vs. Vstall)
        •   Unmistakable recognition of stall qualities (natural or artificial) prior to the real stall
        •   Acceptable aircraft behavior when stalled (e.g. max bank angle).

        Nowadays, if a stall is impending, most aircraft are equipped with such artificial stall
        warning, as audio alerts (cricket sound) and tactile alerts (stick shaker effect).
        A stall warning triggers when the aircraft’s Angle-Of-Attack                  (AOA)    exceeds
        a predetermined value: This value depends on the slat configuration.
        The warning indicates the proximity of the aircraft’s AOA compared to the stall’s AOA
        (Figure 1).




                                                   Figure 1
                                        Lift at given Angle-of-Attack


        The stall warning is inhibited on ground, until liftoff.


  II.2 Operational Consequences
        When an aircraft is airborne, stall warning activation can be catastrophic, if the flight
        crew does not respond correctly and effectively.
        Worldwide experience records events where flight crews have been misled by
        a spurious / untimely stall warning activation at liftoff. Some of them have resulted in
        fatal accidents (e.g.: rejected takeoff after rotation, CFIT).

  III   Applicable Standards / Techniques

        If a stall warning triggers at a low altitude, the flight crew should consider that there is
        an immediate flight path threat, and a potential risk of ground contact.
        In other words, there is no time to differentiate between a real or spurious stall
        warning, and there is no altitude to convert to speed.
        However, when a stall warning triggers (i.e. stick shaker activation), aircraft still have
        positive climb performance capability.

        Note:
        An “approach to stall” is a controlled flight maneuver. An aircraft that is stalled is out of
        control, but is recoverable. Do not confuse an “approach to stall” with “a full stall”.

        When ground clearance is not an issue, the recommended technique is to recover from
        the near-stall condition in the minimum amount of time, by applying power and nose
        down input.
        When ground clearance is an issue, the recommended technique is to lose as little
        altitude as possible, by applying full power and by flying an optimum pitch attitude.

        This optimum pitch attitude depends on the aircraft’s proximity to the ground:

        •   At Liftoff:
            At liftoff, an optimum pitch attitude of 12.5 degrees is required.
            This pitch attitude is necessary to avoid the risk of ground contact, and ensures an
            increase in speed, regardless of the aircraft’s takeoff weight, center of gravity, type
            (i.e. A300/A310/A300-600), actual slats and flaps configuration, or if there is an
            engine failure.

        •   After Liftoff:
            The optimum pitch attitude is a reduced pitch. However, this reduction is no more
            than necessary to enable the airspeed to increase while there is a risk of ground
            contact.

        Note:
        The “Procedures and Techniques” section of the A300/A310/A300-600 FCOMs provides
        the complete recovery procedure to be applied in the event of a stall warning
        activation.

        An analogy can be made with the guidelines that are provided during flight crew
        training to be applied in the event of an engine failure:
            −   Immediate procedure for aircraft control, then
            −   Performance management.

  IV   Operational and Human Factors involved in Stall Warning Activation
       at Takeoff

       At takeoff, stall warnings are the result of one, or a combination, of the following
       factors:

       •   Weather Factors:
           −   Icing conditions
           −   Windshear.


       •   Human Factors:
           −   Insufficient aircraft de-icing in cold weather operations
           −   Incorrect loading (e.g. cargo not positioned in accordance with the load and trim
               sheet, …)
           −   Incorrect slats/flaps configuration
           −   Incorrect takeoff speed.


       •   Flight Crew Techniques:
           −   Early rotation below the specified speed, resulting in a higher peak AOA
           −   Maneuvering near the minimum speed at an excessive bank angle
           −   Premature retraction of the flaps.


       •   Aircraft Systems:
           −   Engine failure and subsequent loss of energy
           −   Malfunction of artificial stall warning, leading to spurious stall warnings, caused
               by a damaged AOA probe, by an AOA probe that is not correctly rigged, or by
               a computer failure.


   V   Prevention Strategies / Lines of Defense

       The flight crew should pay special attention to the following prevention strategies and
       “lines of defense”:
       •   Concentrate on taking action early enough to prevent the occurrence of a stall
           warning
       •   Learn how to recognize an “approach to stall”
       •   During recurrent training, reinforce and confirm the correct flight crew response to
           a stall warning activation at takeoff.

Flight Operations Briefing Notes                        Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff




  V.1 Cockpit Preparation – Takeoff Briefing

      The Takeoff Briefing should address the following:

      •   Clean Aircraft Concept
          In conditions that are conducive to aircraft icing, the preflight briefing must
          emphasize the “clean aircraft concept”. This concept requires knowledge of:
          −   The adverse effects that ice, frost, or snow can have on aircraft performance
              and on its handling qualities
          −   The various ground anti-icing and de-icing procedures, as well as their
              limitations
          −   The necessity to perform walkaround inspections, in order to check for ice
              accumulation on lifting surfaces.

          Note:
          Airbus brochure “Getting to Grips with Cold Weather Operations” provides additional
          information concerning the “clean aircraft concept” .


      •   Windshear Awareness
          Flight crews should consider all available windshear-awareness items (Refer to the
          Flight Operations Briefing Note Windshear Awareness), assess the conditions for
          a safe takeoff, and delay takeoff until conditions improve, as warranted.


      •   Performance Computation
          Flight crews should determine the correct performance and takeoff speeds,
          depending on the prevailing conditions, and they should select the appropriate
          configuration, power settings, and speeds (Refer to the Flight Operations Briefing
          Notes Understanding Takeoff Speeds and Conducting Effective Briefings).


  V.2 Flying Techniques

      During the takeoff roll, the Pilot-Not-Flying (PNF) should be aware of V-speeds, and is
      responsible for calling out a timely “rotate” at VR.
      On this callout, the Pilot-Flying (PF) should adhere to the standard rotation technique,
      then follow the FD bars after liftoff.
      When the aircraft is above the acceleration altitude, and accelerates above
      the minimum speed associated with the next configuration (i.e. when there is a positive
      speed trend on the PFD), the PF should call for slats/flaps retraction. Before initiating
      the retraction, the PNF should confirm that this condition has been checked.

  V.3 Approach to Stall Recognition

      The following information should be a part of basic aeronautics:

      •   Stall Speed Awareness
          The stall speeds that are published in the Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM) have been
          defined for specific conditions (e.g. wings level, normal load factor near 1.0). In
          other conditions (e.g. excessive bank angle), the stall may occur above the
          published stall speed.
          Flying at the minimum speed (e.g. V2) provides a margin with respect to stall, as
          required by the regulation. However, this margin is reduced when the aircraft is
          flying under g loads that are greater than 1 g.
          The stick shaker and the stall warning trigger, when the AOA reaches a
          predetermined value. Therefore, the effect of the load factor is considered to trigger
          the warning.
          Maneuvering near the minimum speed with an excessive bank angle may therefore
          lead to a real stall warning activation.

      •   Stall Warning Cues at Takeoff
          As indicated, timely recognition of an ”approach to stall” is vital to the successful
          implementation of the recovery procedure.

          The following alertness factors should be monitored:
          −   The speed goes below V2
          −   The speed symbol on the PFD speed scale (depending on the aircraft type) goes
              below the stick shaker speed displayed as a red and black strip (Figure 2)
          −   The vertical speed does not increase as expected.




                                              Figure 2
                    Red and Black Strip Displayed on PFD (e.g. A310/A300-600)

Takeoff and Departure Operations
Flight Operations Briefing Notes                          Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff




        In all stall warning cases, there is a tactile alert (i.e. stick shaker activation) and
        an aural alert so that the flight crew can feel, and hear the stall warning with enough
        opportunity to quickly recover aircraft.


  V.4 Training Program Outline

        The recurrent training program should include a Full Flight Simulator session that takes
        into account the activation of a stall warning at takeoff. The purpose of such
        a simulator exercise is for the flight crew to observe and to practice the correct
        response to stall warning activation at takeoff.
        This exercise, proposed in the Airbus standard recurrent training course, should be
        performed every 3 years.
        In addition to the training documentation, the Procedures and Techniques section of
        the A300/A300-600/A310 FCOM should be used in association with this Flight
        Operations Briefing Note, as briefing material.


  VI    Summary of Key Points

        Recurrent training for all aircraft types should highlight the following key points, when
        addressing stall warning awareness and flight crew response to a stall warning
        activation at takeoff:
        •   Preventive actions must (ideally) be taken before the stall warning
        •   At low altitudes, there is no time to distinguish between a real or spurious stall
            warning, and there is no altitude to convert to speed
        •   The PF’s response must be immediate:                Fly optimum       pitch   attitude
            (e.g. 12.5 degrees at liftoff) and use maximum allowable thrust
        •   The recovery maneuver must be continued, until a safe flight path and speed are
            achieved and maintained.

  • 1. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff Flight Operations Briefing Notes Takeoff and Departure Operations Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff I Introduction This Flight Operations Briefing Note provides an overview of: • The operational guidelines to follow in response to a stall warning at takeoff, for an improved understanding of recovery techniques • The factors that lead to stall warning activation at takeoff, and • The corresponding prevention strategies. Flight crew situational awareness, in the event of a stall warning, is essential to the successful application of recovery techniques. This is particularly true for aircraft that do not have full protection throughout the flight envelope. This heightened awareness is principally necessary at takeoff, when the risk of ground contact exists. Note: This Flight Operations Briefing Note is primarily designed for aircraft that do not have flight envelope protection (e.g. A300/A310/A300-600). However, the key points at the end of this briefing note are also applicable to all aircraft types, with or without flight envelope protection. For this reason, all pilots are invited to read this document. Page 1 of 8
  • 2. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff II Background Information II.1 Stall Warning Definition Airworthiness regulations require three levels of protection against stall: • Adequate speed margin (minimum speed vs. Vstall) • Unmistakable recognition of stall qualities (natural or artificial) prior to the real stall • Acceptable aircraft behavior when stalled (e.g. max bank angle). Nowadays, if a stall is impending, most aircraft are equipped with such artificial stall warning, as audio alerts (cricket sound) and tactile alerts (stick shaker effect). A stall warning triggers when the aircraft’s Angle-Of-Attack (AOA) exceeds a predetermined value: This value depends on the slat configuration. The warning indicates the proximity of the aircraft’s AOA compared to the stall’s AOA (Figure 1). Figure 1 Lift at given Angle-of-Attack The stall warning is inhibited on ground, until liftoff. II.2 Operational Consequences When an aircraft is airborne, stall warning activation can be catastrophic, if the flight crew does not respond correctly and effectively. Worldwide experience records events where flight crews have been misled by a spurious / untimely stall warning activation at liftoff. Some of them have resulted in fatal accidents (e.g.: rejected takeoff after rotation, CFIT). Page 2 of 8
  • 3. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff III Applicable Standards / Techniques If a stall warning triggers at a low altitude, the flight crew should consider that there is an immediate flight path threat, and a potential risk of ground contact. In other words, there is no time to differentiate between a real or spurious stall warning, and there is no altitude to convert to speed. However, when a stall warning triggers (i.e. stick shaker activation), aircraft still have positive climb performance capability. Note: An “approach to stall” is a controlled flight maneuver. An aircraft that is stalled is out of control, but is recoverable. Do not confuse an “approach to stall” with “a full stall”. When ground clearance is not an issue, the recommended technique is to recover from the near-stall condition in the minimum amount of time, by applying power and nose down input. When ground clearance is an issue, the recommended technique is to lose as little altitude as possible, by applying full power and by flying an optimum pitch attitude. This optimum pitch attitude depends on the aircraft’s proximity to the ground: • At Liftoff: At liftoff, an optimum pitch attitude of 12.5 degrees is required. This pitch attitude is necessary to avoid the risk of ground contact, and ensures an increase in speed, regardless of the aircraft’s takeoff weight, center of gravity, type (i.e. A300/A310/A300-600), actual slats and flaps configuration, or if there is an engine failure. • After Liftoff: The optimum pitch attitude is a reduced pitch. However, this reduction is no more than necessary to enable the airspeed to increase while there is a risk of ground contact. Note: The “Procedures and Techniques” section of the A300/A310/A300-600 FCOMs provides the complete recovery procedure to be applied in the event of a stall warning activation. An analogy can be made with the guidelines that are provided during flight crew training to be applied in the event of an engine failure: − Immediate procedure for aircraft control, then − Performance management. Page 3 of 8
  • 4. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff IV Operational and Human Factors involved in Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff At takeoff, stall warnings are the result of one, or a combination, of the following factors: • Weather Factors: − Icing conditions − Windshear. • Human Factors: − Insufficient aircraft de-icing in cold weather operations − Incorrect loading (e.g. cargo not positioned in accordance with the load and trim sheet, …) − Incorrect slats/flaps configuration − Incorrect takeoff speed. • Flight Crew Techniques: − Early rotation below the specified speed, resulting in a higher peak AOA − Maneuvering near the minimum speed at an excessive bank angle − Premature retraction of the flaps. • Aircraft Systems: − Engine failure and subsequent loss of energy − Malfunction of artificial stall warning, leading to spurious stall warnings, caused by a damaged AOA probe, by an AOA probe that is not correctly rigged, or by a computer failure. V Prevention Strategies / Lines of Defense The flight crew should pay special attention to the following prevention strategies and “lines of defense”: • Concentrate on taking action early enough to prevent the occurrence of a stall warning • Learn how to recognize an “approach to stall” • During recurrent training, reinforce and confirm the correct flight crew response to a stall warning activation at takeoff. Page 4 of 8
  • 5. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff V.1 Cockpit Preparation – Takeoff Briefing The Takeoff Briefing should address the following: • Clean Aircraft Concept In conditions that are conducive to aircraft icing, the preflight briefing must emphasize the “clean aircraft concept”. This concept requires knowledge of: − The adverse effects that ice, frost, or snow can have on aircraft performance and on its handling qualities − The various ground anti-icing and de-icing procedures, as well as their limitations − The necessity to perform walkaround inspections, in order to check for ice accumulation on lifting surfaces. Note: Airbus brochure “Getting to Grips with Cold Weather Operations” provides additional information concerning the “clean aircraft concept” . • Windshear Awareness Flight crews should consider all available windshear-awareness items (Refer to the Flight Operations Briefing Note Windshear Awareness), assess the conditions for a safe takeoff, and delay takeoff until conditions improve, as warranted. • Performance Computation Flight crews should determine the correct performance and takeoff speeds, depending on the prevailing conditions, and they should select the appropriate configuration, power settings, and speeds (Refer to the Flight Operations Briefing Notes Understanding Takeoff Speeds and Conducting Effective Briefings). V.2 Flying Techniques During the takeoff roll, the Pilot-Not-Flying (PNF) should be aware of V-speeds, and is responsible for calling out a timely “rotate” at VR. On this callout, the Pilot-Flying (PF) should adhere to the standard rotation technique, then follow the FD bars after liftoff. When the aircraft is above the acceleration altitude, and accelerates above the minimum speed associated with the next configuration (i.e. when there is a positive speed trend on the PFD), the PF should call for slats/flaps retraction. Before initiating the retraction, the PNF should confirm that this condition has been checked. Page 5 of 8
  • 6. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff V.3 Approach to Stall Recognition The following information should be a part of basic aeronautics: • Stall Speed Awareness The stall speeds that are published in the Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM) have been defined for specific conditions (e.g. wings level, normal load factor near 1.0). In other conditions (e.g. excessive bank angle), the stall may occur above the published stall speed. Flying at the minimum speed (e.g. V2) provides a margin with respect to stall, as required by the regulation. However, this margin is reduced when the aircraft is flying under g loads that are greater than 1 g. The stick shaker and the stall warning trigger, when the AOA reaches a predetermined value. Therefore, the effect of the load factor is considered to trigger the warning. Maneuvering near the minimum speed with an excessive bank angle may therefore lead to a real stall warning activation. • Stall Warning Cues at Takeoff As indicated, timely recognition of an ”approach to stall” is vital to the successful implementation of the recovery procedure. The following alertness factors should be monitored: − The speed goes below V2 − The speed symbol on the PFD speed scale (depending on the aircraft type) goes below the stick shaker speed displayed as a red and black strip (Figure 2) − The vertical speed does not increase as expected.

  • 7. Takeoff and Departure Operations Flight Operations Briefing Notes Response to Stall Warning Activation at Takeoff In all stall warning cases, there is a tactile alert (i.e. stick shaker activation) and an aural alert so that the flight crew can feel, and hear the stall warning with enough opportunity to quickly recover aircraft. V.4 Training Program Outline The recurrent training program should include a Full Flight Simulator session that takes into account the activation of a stall warning at takeoff. The purpose of such a simulator exercise is for the flight crew to observe and to practice the correct response to stall warning activation at takeoff. This exercise, proposed in the Airbus standard recurrent training course, should be performed every 3 years. In addition to the training documentation, the Procedures and Techniques section of the A300/A300-600/A310 FCOM should be used in association with this Flight Operations Briefing Note, as briefing material. VI Summary of Key Points Recurrent training for all aircraft types should highlight the following key points, when addressing stall warning awareness and flight crew response to a stall warning activation at takeoff: • Preventive actions must (ideally) be taken before the stall warning • At low altitudes, there is no time to distinguish between a real or spurious stall warning, and there is no altitude to convert to speed • The PF’s response must be immediate: Fly optimum pitch attitude (e.g. 12.5 degrees at liftoff) and use maximum allowable thrust • The recovery maneuver must be continued, until a safe flight path and speed are achieved and maintained.
