PITCH TRIM SET Set Takeoff CG on the pitch trim wheel For this purpose, use the actual CG indicated on the ECAM : 4 The Takeoff CG value must be within the green band limits.
WHEN ARE ENG & WING ANTI ICE REQUIRED? Engine anti-ice OAT or TAT 10 C with visible moisture in the air, standing water, slush, ice or snow on the taxiways or runways ICING CONDITIONS expected ENG ANTI ICE must be ON Wing anti-ice Prevent ice formation OR Ice accumulation on the wing leading edges OR Ice accumulation on the visual ice indicator or on the windshield wipers WING ANTI ICE recommended CAUTION! In icing conditions, minimise flight duration with the slats extended.
