Purpose
1. General
The A340-200/-300 AIRCRAFT CHARACTERISTICS - AIRPORT AND MAINTENANCE
PLANNING (AC) manual is issued for the A340-200 and A340-300 basic versions to provide
necessary data to airport operators, airlines and Maintenance/Repair Organizations (MRO) for airport
and maintenance facilities planning.
This revision is now a merging of the Maintenance Facility Planning (MFP) document and the
Airplane Characteristics for Airport Planning (AC). This document has been renamed Aircraft
Characteristics - Airport and Maintenance Planning (AC) to reflect this change.
Additionally, a chapter 10 ”Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting” has been added to the AC. This
chapter contains the illustrations of the Aircraft Rescue and Fire fighting Charts poster and replaces
the PDF document that was available for download.
This document is not customized and must not be used for training purposes.
The A340 is part of an integrated family sharing the same modern technology as the A330 and
maintaining the commonality that is integrated into the Airbus Fly-by-Wire Family. It has undergone
a program of continuous improvement and still delivers the value that airline customers expect, as the
A340 has over 50 customers and operators with more than 350 A340s flying to over 150 airports
every week.
The different models of the A340 Family can carry from 250 to 440 passengers and are operating on
some of the world’s longest routes.
A stand-out benefit of the four-engine A340 is that it does not require any ETOPS certification. This
allows quick start-up of long-haul operations. It also has good ’hot and high’ capability at airports
that would be off-limits to other aircraft.
The A340 has one of the quietest and most comfortable cabins in the sky, with state-of-the-art LED
(Light Emitting Diode) lighting, mood styles of lighting and AVOD IFE systems.
The A340 combines good capability, economics and passenger product in one package.

2. Design Weight Terminology

- Maximum Design Ramp Weight (MRW):
Maximum weight for ground maneuver (including weight of taxi and run-up fuel) as limited by
aircraft strength and airworthiness requirements. It is also called Maximum Design Taxi Weight
(MTW).
- Maximum Design Landing Weight (MLW):
Maximum weight for landing as limited by aircraft strength and airworthiness requirements.
- Maximum Design Take-Off Weight (MTOW):
Maximum weight for take-off as limited by aircraft strength and airworthiness requirements. (This
is the maximum weight at start of the take-off run).
- Maximum Design Zero Fuel Weight (MZFW):
Maximum permissible weight of the aircraft without usable fuel.
- Maximum Seating Capacity:
Maximum number of passengers specifically certified or anticipated for certification.
- Usable Volume:
Usable volume available for cargo, pressurized fuselage, passenger compartment and cockpit.

Landing Gear Maintenance Pits
1. General
The minimum maintenance pit envelopes for the main landing gear shock absorber removal are shown
in Figures 1 and 2.
All dimensions shown are minimum dimensions with zero clearances.
The dimensions for the pits have been determined for these design factors:
- The length and width of the pits allow the gear to rotate as the weight is taken off the landing
gear
- The depth of the pits allow the shock absorber to be removed when all the weight is taken off the
landing gear.
Dimensions for elevators and associated mechanisms must be added to those in Figures 1 and 2.
A. Elevators
These can be either mechanical or hydraulic. Elevators are used to:

- permit easy movement of persons and equipment around the main landing gears
- to lift and remove landing gear assemblies out of the pits.
B. Jacking
The aircraft must be in position over the pits to put the gear on the elevators. Jacks must be
installed and engaged with all the jacking points (Ref. Section 2-14 for Jacking).
Jacks must support the total aircraft weight, i.e. when the landing gears do not touch the
elevators on retraction/extension tests.
When tripod support jacks are used, the tripod-base circle radius must be limited because the
locations required for positioning the jacks are close to the sides of the pits.

Landing Gear
1. General
The aircraft has:

- Two Main Landing Gears (MLG) with four wheel bogie assembly and related doors
- A Centerline Landing Gear (CLG) with twin wheel assembly and related doors
- A Nose Landing Gear retracts forward into a fuselage compartment below the cockpit.
The Main Landing Gears are located under each wing and retract sideways towards the fuselage
centerline.
The Centerline Landing Gear is located on the belly and retract forward into a bay in the fuselage.
The Nose Landing Gear retracts forward into a fuselage compartment below the cockpit.
The retraction and extension of the landing gears and landing gear doors are operated hydraulically
and mechanically. The control, sequence and indication are electrical.
In abnormal operation, the landing gears can be extended by gravity.
For the dimensions of the landing gear footprint and tire size, refer to 7-2-0
2. Main Landing Gear and Doors
Each Main Landing Gear has a leg assembly and a four-wheel bogie beam. The MLG leg includes a
shortening mechanism, a bogie pitch trimmer and an oleo-pneumatic shock absorber. In flight, with
the MLG extended, the bogie is held in a trailing condition (rear wheels low) by an articulation
linkage and a pitch trimmer. The folding sidestay is locked mechanically by a lockstay (which is
operated by the downlock actuator) when the MLG is fully extended.
Each MLG bay has the following doors:

- A hydraulically-operated main door
- A mechanically-operated hinged door
- A fairing door on the MLG leg.
All the doors close when the MLG retracts. When the MLG is extended the main door closes and the
hinged door stays open. A manually operated mechanism (for maintenance personnel) lets the main
doors be opened for access to the MLG bay when the aircraft is on the ground.
3. Centerline Landing Gear and Doors
The CLG includes a twin-wheel axle assembly and a leg assembly that includes an oleo pneumatic
shock absorber. The CLG is supported longitudinally by a two-piece folding dragstay. The dragstay is
locked mechanically by the lock links when the CLG is fully extended.
Each CLG bay has the following doors:
Page 6
2-9-0 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
- Two hydraulically-operated FWD doors

- Two mechanically-operated AFT doors
- A fixed fairing door on the CLG leg.
All the doors close when the CLG retracts. When the CLG is extended the FWD doors close and the
AFT doors stay open. A door opening mechanism lets the FWD doors be opened on the ground for
access to the CLG bay.
4. Nose Landing Gear and Doors
The NLG includes a twin-wheel axle assembly and an oleo-pneumatic shock absorber. The NLG is
supported longitudinally by a two-piece dragstay. The dragstay is locked mechanically by the lock
links when the NLG is fully extended.
Each NLG bay has the following doors:

- Two hydraulically-operated FWD doors
- Two mechanically-operated AFT doors
- A fixed fairing door on the NLG leg.
All the doors close when the NLG retracts. When the NLG is extended the FWD doors close and the
AFT doors stay open. A door opening mechanism lets the FWD doors be opened on the ground for
access to the NLG bay.
5. Nose Wheel Steering
Nose wheel steering system is a computer controlled electro-hydraulic system. The system uses the
Green main hydraulic power system to operate the hydraulic components.
The steering is controlled by two hand wheel transmitters in the cockpit, which supply the primary
steering inputs to the BSCU (Brake and Steering Control Unit ).
A steering disconnection box is installed on the NLG to disconnect the steering for towing.
For the operation and control of nose wheel steering, refer to AMM 32-51-00.
For the steering angle limits, refer to AMM 09-10-00.
6. Landing Gear Servicing Points
A. General
Fluid filling and gas charging of the MLG,CLG and NLG shock absorbers are accomplished
through MS28889 standard valves.
B. Charging Pressures
For charging of the landing gear shock absorbers, refer to AMM 12-14-32.
7. Landing Gear Control
Page 7
2-9-0 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
The landing gear and door operation is controlled electrically by one of the two Landing Gear Control
and Interface Units (LGCIU). Control changes from one LGCIU to the other after each extension
cycle.
In normal operation, the landing gears and doors are operated by the Green hydraulic system.
In abnormal operation, the landing gears can be extended by the operation of electro-mechanical free-
fall system. The related electrical switches in the cockpit disengages the doors and the landing gear
uplocks. The landing gears then extend by free-fall and the downlock links of each landing gear (L/G)
are locked in position by springs.
8. Braking
A. General
Carbon multi-disc brakes are installed on each wheel of the MLG. Each brake assembly has two
wear indicators installed.
The braking system has four braking modes and also autobrake and anti-skid systems:
- Normal braking with anti-skid
- Alternate braking with anti-skid
- Alternate braking without anti-skid
- Parking brake with full brake pressure.
B. In-Flight Wheel Braking
Braking occurs automatically during the retraction of the landing gears. This stops the rotation
of the MLG wheels before the landing gears go into their related bays.
The wheels of the NLG are braked by spring loaded pads.
9. Tire Pressure Indicating System (TPIS)
The TPIS automatically monitors the tire pressures and shows these values on Test Equipment
(BITE) and also supplies other data and warnings on the WHEEL page of the System Display (SD).
10. Built In Test Equipment (BITE)
The BITE has hardware and software for these functions:

- to automatically do a self test at power-up
- to continuously monitor the related systems for failures
- to continuously monitor the interface with other specified systems in the aircraft
- to keep a record of each failure and defect and send this data to other systems in the aircraft
- to automatically do a functional test of some related systems before a landing
- to do specified system tests during ground maintenance.
The BITE for the following systems is described in these chapters:

- The Brakes and Steering AMM 32-46-00
- The TPIS AMM 32-49-00
- The Landing GearAMM 32-69-00.

2-12-0 Engine and Nacelle
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Engine and Nacelle
1. Engine and Nacelle - CFM 56-5C Engine
A. Engine
The engine is an axial flow, dual spool, high bypass ratio, turbofan engine.
The principal modules of the engine are:
- The fan and booster
- The high pressure compressor
- The combustion chamber
- The High Pressure Turbine (HPT)
- The Low Pressure Turbine (LPT)
- The accessory drive gearbox.
The fan and booster assembly consists of a single-stage fan rotor and a four-stage axial booster,
cantilever-mounted at the rear of the fan disk. The compressor is a nine-stage axial flow
assembly. Air, taken in through the fan and booster sections, passes through successive stages
of rotor blades and stator vanes, being compressed as it passes from stage to stage. After
passing through the 9 high pressure compressor stages, the air is fully compressed. The Inlet
Guide Vanes (IGV) and the first 3 stages of the compressor are variable. The combustion
chamber is a short, annular structure. The combustion of fuel takes place in the combustor
installed in the combustion casing. The HPT module consists of a single-stage nozzle and rotor.
The HPT is an air-cooled single-stage high-energy turbine. Rotor blades are individually
replaceable without the need for rotor disassembly or re-balancing. The LPT consists of 5 stages
of blades and vanes. The LPT drives the fan rotor through the inner concentric shaft and is
aerodynamically coupled to the high pressure system. The engine and aircraft accessories are
mounted on the accessory gearbox which is located on the lower portion of the fan casing and is
driven by a shaft from the transfer gearbox. Power for the engine and the aircraft accessories is
extracted from the high pressure compressor rotor shaft through an inlet gearbox through the
radial drive shaft to the transfer gearbox.
B. Nacelle
The nacelle provides protection for the engine and the engine accessories, and aerodynamic
airflow around the engine during operation. Each engine is housed in a nacelle suspended from a
pylon attached below the wing. The nacelle consists of the following major components:
(1) Air Intake Cowl Assembly
The engine air intake cowl structure is an interchangeable aerodynamically-faired assembly.
It is installed on the forward face of the engine fan case.
Page 1
2-12-0 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
(2) Fan Cowl Assembly

The fan cowls are interchangeable units. They enclose the engine fan case between the air
intake cowl and the thrust reverser. Three hinges at the pylon support each fan cowl. The
fan cowls are latched at the bottom with three adjustable tension hook latches.
(3) Fan Thrust Reverser
The thrust reverser comprises two cowls. Each cowl is hinged at the top to the pylon and
latched to the other cowl along the bottom centerline; the forward end is secured onto the
aft outer flange of the fan case and the aft end onto the forward outer barrel of the
exhaust nozzle. The fan thrust reverser assembly forms the passage for fan airstream flow
between the fan case aft frame and the exhaust nozzle/mixer inlet. When in reverse thrust
mode, four pivoting doors turn the engine fan air flow forward and provide a braking effect
to reduce the aircraft stopping distance. The thrust reverser is designed for ground
operation only. A hydraulically-actuated cowl-opening system allows each thrust reverser
cowl to be opened independently.
(4) Exhaust Nozzle
The exhaust nozzle attaches to the thrust reverser when the reverser cowls are closed.
When they are open the exhaust nozzle is maintained on the mixer by two support pins
located on the upper forward part of the mixer and by a strut. The nozzle can be removed
alone or together with the engine.

2-12-1 Auxiliary Power Unit
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Auxiliary Power Unit
1. General
The Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) and its related mechanical components are installed at the rear part
of the fuselage in the tailcone section. The APU compartment is a fireproof area (identified as the
Fire Zone).
The APU is a pneumatic and shaft-power gas-turbine engine and is used for the ground and in-flight
power supply of the aircraft.
The APU supplies:

- mechanical shaft-power to operate a generator
- bleed-air to the Main Engine Start (MES) and the Environmental Control System (ECS).
A part of the automatic system, with the pneumatic and the electromechanical controls, operates the
start and the acceleration functions of the APU.
An air intake system with a flap-type door is installed in front of the APU compartment. The exhaust
gases pass overboard at the end of the fuselage cone.
2. Powerplant
The APU is the Garrett Gas-Turbine Compressor Power-unit (GTCP) 331-350C with a single shaft
engine.
The engine is the primary component of the APU, which is of the modular design. The modules of
the engine are:
- The power section
- The load compressor
- The accessory drive gearbox with LRU(s).
The power section has a two-stage centrifugal compressor, a reverse-flow annular combustion
chamber and a three-stage axial turbine. The power section directly operates the one-stage
centrifugal load-compressor which supplies the bleed-air to the pneumatic system. The inlet guide
vanes as part of the load compressor, control the airflow.
The power section also operates the gearbox which is attached to the load compressor. The following
LRU’s are mounted on the gearbox :
- the APU generator,
- the starter motor,
- the oil pump,
- the Fuel Control Unit (FCU),
- the cooling air fan.
The APU has a gearbox-driven oil-cooled AC generator.
Page 1
2-12-1 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
The cooling air and ventilation system of the APU supplies the air for cooling of the APU and the
equipment on the APU. It also supplies the air for ventilation of the APU compartment.
3. Control circuit
The Electronic Control Box (ECB), which controls the Fuel Control Unit (FCU) and the Inlet Guide
Vanes (IGV), keeps the APU at a constant speed. The control circuit is used to start the APU, to
shut it down, to control it and to prevent internal failure.
4. Controls and Indication
The primary APU controls and indications are installed in the overhead panel, on the center pedestal
panel and on the forward center panel. External APU panels are also installed on the nose landing
gear and on the refuel/defuel panel, to initiate an APU emergency shut-down.

**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Leveling, Symmetry and Alignment
1. Quick Leveling
There are three alternative procedures to level the aircraft:
- Quick leveling procedure with Air Data/Inertial Reference System (ADIRS)
- Quick leveling procedure with a spirit level in the passenger compartment
- Quick leveling procedure with a spirit level in the FWD cargo compartment.
2. Precision Leveling
For precise leveling, it is necessary to install sighting rods in the receptacles located under the
fuselage (points 12 and 13 for longitudinal leveling) and under the wings (points 2LH and 2RH for
lateral leveling) and use a sighting tube. With the aircraft on jacks, adjust the jacks until the
reference marks on the sighting rods are aligned in the sighting plane (aircraft level).
3. Symmetry and Alignment Check
Possible deformation of the aircraft is measured by photogrammetry.

2-14-0 Jacking for Maintenance
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Jacking for Maintenance
1. Aircraft Jacking Points for Maintenance
A. General
(1) The A340-200/-300 can be jacked:
- At not more than 152 000 kg (335 103 lb)
- Within the limits of the permissible wind speed when the aircraft is jacked outside a
closed environment.
B. Primary Jacking Points
(1) The aircraft are provided with three primary jacking points:
- One located under the forward fuselage (after FR10A)
- Two located under the wings (one under each wing), at the intersection of RIB10 and
the rear of the spar-datum.
(2) Three jack adapters (ground equipment) are used as intermediary parts between the
aircraft jacking points and the jacks:
- One male spherical jack adapter at the forward fuselage
- Two female spherical jack pad adapters at the wings (one at each wing).
C. Auxiliary Jacking Point (Safety Stay)
(1) When the aircraft is on jacks, a safety stay is placed under the fuselage at FR85 to prevent
tail tipping caused by accidental displacement of the aircraft center of gravity.
(2) The safety point must not be used for lifting the aircraft.
(3) One male spherical stay adapter (ground equipment) is used as an intermediary part
between the aircraft safety point and the stay.
2. Jacks and Safety Stay
A. Jack Design
(1) The maximum eligible loads given in the table (Ref. Fig. Jacking Point Location) are the
maximum loads applicable on jack fittings.
(2) In fully retracted position (jack stroke at minimum), the height of the jack is such that the
jack may be placed beneath the aircraft under the most adverse conditions, namely, tires
deflated and shock absorbers depressurized, with sufficient clearance between the aircraft
jacking point and the jack upper end.
(3) The lifting jack stroke enables the aircraft to be jacked up so that the Fuselage Datum line
(FDL) may be positioned up to 7.2 m (23.62 ft) from the ground to allow all required
maintenance procedures and in particular, the removal/installation of the landing-gear
shock absorbers.
Page 1
2-14-0 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
B. Safety Stay
The stay stroke enables the aircraft tail to be supported up to the Fuselage Datum Line (FDL)
positioned 7.2 m (23.62 ft) from the ground.

2-14-1 Jacking for Wheel Change
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Jacking for Wheel Change
1. General
To replace either the wheel or brake unit assemblies on any of the landing gears, it is necessary to lift
the landing gear with a jack.
The landing gear can be lifted by a pillar jack or with a cantilever jack.
The possible damage conditions than can be found on the landing-gear wheel units are shown in
Figures ”MLG Jacking Point Heights”, ”NLG Jacking Point Heights” and ”CLG Jacking Point
Heights”.
NOTE : You can lift the aircraft at the Maximum Take-Off Weight (MTOW).
2. Main Landing Gear (MLG)
To lift the MLG bogie with jacks, a dome shaped pad (PN MS33559 TYPE IV) is installed below the
FWD and AFT ends of each bogie beam. Each pair of wheels and brake units can be replaced on the
end of the bogie that is lifted.
Both FWD and AFT ends of the bogie beam can be lifted together, but the bogie beam must be kept
level during the lift to prevent damage.
The MLG has a pitch trimmer installed. If an MLG has all four tires deflated or shredded, replace the
wheel assemblies in this sequence:
- Replace the wheel assemblies on the AFT axle,
- Replace the wheel assemblies on the FWD axle.
If the FWD axle is lifted first the pitch trimmer contacts the outstop. Further jacking will cause the
whole bogie to be lifted.
Important dimensions on heights of the MLG when lifted are shown in Figure ”MLG Jacking Point
Heights”.
The maximum height of the bogie beam when lifted must not exceed 650 mm (25.6 in).
The reaction loads at each jack position are shown in Figure ”MLG Jacking Point Loads”.
NOTE : The load at each jacking position is the load required to give 25.4 mm (1 in) clearance
between the ground and the tire.
3. Nose Landing Gear (NLG)
To lift the NLG axle with a jack, a dome shaped pad (PN MS33559 Type II) is installed between the
wheels.
Important dimensions on heights of the NLG when lifted are shown in Figure ”NLG Jacking Point
Heights”.
The reaction loads at the jack position are shown in Figure ”NLG Jacking Point Loads”.

@A340-200/-300
4. Center Landing Gear (CLG)

To lift the CLG with a jack, a dome shaped pad (PN MS33559 TYPE IV) is installed between the
wheels.
Important dimensions on heights of the CLG when lifted are shown in Figure ”CLG Jacking Point
Heights”.
The reaction loads at the jack position are shown in Figure ”CLG Jacking Point Loads”.

2-14-2 Support of Aircraft
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Support of Aircraft
1. Support of Aircraft
When it is necessary to support the aircraft in order to relieve the loads on the structure for the
accomplishment of modifications or major work, it is advisable to provide adapters under the wings
and the fuselage for an alternative means of lifting.
The aircraft must not be lifted or supported by the wings or fuselage alone. It is important to support
the aircraft fuselage and wings at the same time to prevent structural damage.
A. Shoring Cradles
Shoring cradles are used when it is necessary to stress-jack the aircraft to carry out maintenance
and repair work. These are used to oppose the deflections of the wings and reduce the stresses
to an acceptable level at the area of maintenance and repair.
The shoring cradles, each with two adjustable pads, 152.4 mm (6 in) square, are positioned at
four locations under each wing.
The adjustable pads are faced with thin rubber and are in contact with the wing profile at the
datum intersections of the ribs and the front and rear spars (F/S and R/S).

GROUND MANEUVERING
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

General Information
1. This section provides airplane turning capability and maneuvering characteristics.
For ease of presentation, this data has been determined from the theoretical limits imposed by the
geometry of the aircraft, and where noted, provides for a normal allowance for tire slippage. As such,
it reflects the turning capability of the aircraft in favorable operating circumstances. This data should
only be used as guidelines for the method of determination of such parameters and for the
maneuvering characteristics of this aircraft type.
In the ground operating mode, varying airline practices may demand that more conservative turning
procedures be adopted to avoid excessive tire wear and reduce possible maintenance problems. Airline
operating techniques will vary in the level of performance, over a wide range of operating
circumstances throughout the world. Variations from standard aircraft operating patterns may be
necessary to satisfy physical constraints within the maneuvering area, such as adverse grades, limited
area or high risk of jet blast damage. For these reasons, ground maneuvering requirements should be
coordinated with the using airlines prior to layout planning.

freighter aircraft on an Open Apron.
Section 5.2 shows the minimum turnaround schedules for full servicing arrangements (turnround
stations).
Section 5.3 shows the minimum turnaround schedule for reduced servicing arrangements (en route
stations).
Section 5.4 gives the locations of ground service connections, the standard of connections used and
typical capacities and requirements.
Section 5.5 provides the engine starting pneumatic requirements for different engine types and
different ambient temperatures.
Section 5.6 provides the air conditioning requirements for heating and cooling (pull-down and pull-up)
using ground conditioned air for different ambient temperatures.
Section 5.7 provides the air conditioning requirements for heating and cooling to maintain a constant
cabin air temperature using low pressure conditioned air.
Section 5.8 shows the ground towing requirements taking into account different ground surface and

**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Engine Starting Pneumatic Requirements
1. The purpose of this section is to provide the minimum air data requirements at the aircraft
connection, needed to start the engine within no more than 70 seconds, at sea level (0 feet), for a set
of Outside Air Temperatures (OAT).
ABBREVIATION DEFINITION
A/C Aircraft
ASU Air Start Unit
HPGC High Pressure Ground Connection
A. Air data (discharge temperature, absolute discharge pressure) are given at the HPGC.
B. For the requirements below, the configuration with two HPGC is used. Using one connector only
(for a given mass flow rate and discharge pressure from the ASU) will increase the pressure loss
in the ducts of the bleed system and therefore lower the performances at the engine starter.
C. For a given OAT the following charts are used to determine an acceptable combination for air
discharge temperature, absolute discharge pressure and mass flow rate.
D. This section is addressing requirements for the ASU only, and is not representative of the start
performance of the aircraft using the APU or engine cross bleed procedure.
E. To protect the A/C, the charts feature, if necessary:
- The maximum discharge pressure at the HPGC
- The maximum discharge temperature at the HPGC.

1. This section describes the required performance for the ground equipment to maintain the cabin
temperature at 27˚C (80.6˚F) after boarding (Section 5.7 - steady state), and provides the time
needed to cool down or heat up the aircraft cabin to the required temperature (Section 5.6 - dynamic
cases with aircraft empty).
ABBREVIATION DEFINITION
A/C Aircraft
AHM Aircraft Handling Manual
GC Ground Connection
GSE Ground Service Equipment
IFE In-Flight Entertainment
LP Low Pressure
A. The air flow rates and temperature requirements for the GSE, provided in Sections 5.6 and 5.7,
are given at A/C ground connection.
NOTE : The maximum air flow is driven by pressure limitation at the ground connection.
B. The air flow rates and temperature requirements for the GSE are given for the A/C in the
configuration ”2 LP ducts connected”.
NOTE : The cooling capacity of the equipment (kW) is only indicative and is not sufficient by
itself to ensure the performance (outlet temperature and flow rate combinations are
the requirements needed for ground power).
An example of cooling capacity calculation is given in Section 5.7.
C. For temperatures at ground connection below +2˚C (+35.6˚F) (Subfreezing), the ground
equipment shall be compliant with the Airbus document ”Subfreezing PCA Carts -- Compliance
Document for Suppliers” (contact Airbus to obtain this document) defining all the requirements
with which Subfreezing Pre-Conditioning Air equipment must comply to allow its use on Airbus
aircraft. These requirements are in addition to the functional specifications included in the IATA
AHM997.
2. Ground Pneumatic Power Requirements
This section provides the ground pneumatic power requirements for:
- Heating (pull up) the cabin, initially at OAT, up to 21˚C (69.8˚F) FIGURE 5---0-99--002-A

temperature at 27 ˚C (80.6 ˚F).
These settings are not intended to be used for operation (they are not a substitute for the settings
given in the AMM). They are based on theoretical simulations and give the picture of a real steady
state. The purpose of the air conditioning operation (described in the AMM) is to maintain the cabin
temperature below 27 ˚C (80.6 ˚F) during boarding (therefore it is not a steady state).

5-8-0 Ground Towing Requirements
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Ground Towing Requirements
1. This section provides information on aircraft towing.
The A340-200/-300 is designed with means for conventional or towbarless towing.

Information/procedures can be found for both in chapter 9 of the Aircraft Maintenance Manual.
Status on towbarless towing equipment qualification can be found in SIL 09-002.
It is possible to tow or push the aircraft, at maximum ramp weight with engines at zero or up to idle
thrust, using a towbar attached to the nose gear leg (refer to AMM chapter 9 for conditions and
limitations). One towbar fitting is installed at the front of the leg (optional towing fitting for towing
from the rear of the NLG available).
The Main Landing Gears have attachment points for towing or debogging (for details, refer to
chapter 7 of the Aircraft Recovery Manual).
This section shows the chart to determine the draw bar pull and tow tractor mass requirements as a
function of the following physical characteristics:
- Aircraft weight,
- Number of engines at idle,
- Slope.
The following chart is applicable to both A340-200 and -300 aircraft.

2. Towbar design guidelines
The aircraft towbar shall comply with the following standards:

- SAE AS 1614, ”Main Line Aircraft TowBar Attach Fitting Interface”,
- SAE ARP 1915, ”Aircraft TowBar”,
- ISO 8267-1, ”Aircraft - Towbar attachment fitting - Interface requirements - Part 1: Main line
aircraft”,
- ISO 9667, ”Aircraft ground support equipment - Towbars”,
- IATA Airport Handling Manual AHM 958, ”Functional Specification for an Aircraft Towbar”.
A conventional type towbar is required which should be equipped with a damping system (to protect
the nose gear against jerks) and with towing shear pins:
- A traction shear pin calibrated at 28 620 daN (64 340 lbf),
- A torsion pin calibrated at 3 130 m.daN (276 991 lbf.in).
The towing head is designed according to SAE AS 1614, cat. III.

− ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE GRAPH, CHOOSE THE RELEVANT AIRCRAFT WEIGHT (270 t),
− FROM THIS POINT DRAW A PARALLEL LINE TO THE REQUIRED SLOPE PERCENTAGE (1.5%),
− FROM THIS POINT OBTAINED DRAW A STRAIGHT HORIZONTAL LINE UNTIL NO OF ENGINES AT IDLE = 4,
− FROM THIS POINT DRAW A PARALLEL LINE TO THE REQUESTED NUMBER OF ENGINES (1),
− FROM THIS POINT DRAW A STRAIGHT HORIZONTAL LINE TO THE DRAWBAR PULL AXIS,
− THE Y−COORDINATE OBTAINED IS THE NECESSARY DRAWBAR PULL FOR THE TRACTOR (21.3 t),
− SEARCH THE INTERSECTION WITH THE "WET CONCRETE" LINE.
THE OBTAINED X−COORDINATE IS THE RECOMMENDED MINIMUM TRACTOR WEIGHT (37.3 t).

PAVEMENT DATA
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

General Information
1. General Information
A brief description of the pavement charts that follow will help in airport planning.
To aid in the interpolation between the discrete values shown, each aircraft configuration is shown
with a minimum range of five loads on the MLG.
All curves on the charts represent data at a constant specified tire pressure with :
- The aircraft loaded to the Maximum Ramp Weight (MRW),
- The CG at its maximum permissible aft position.
Pavement requirements for commercial aircraft are derived from the static analysis of loads imposed
on the MLG struts.
Landing Gear Footprint

Section 7-2-0 presents basic data on the landing gear footprint configuration, MRW and tire sizes and
pressures.
Maximum Pavement Loads

Section 7-3-0 shows the maximum vertical and horizontal pavement loads for certain critical
conditions at the tire-ground interfaces.
Landing Gear Loading on Pavement

Section 7-4-0 contains charts to find these loads throughout the stability limits of the aircraft at rest
on the pavement.
These MLG loads are used as the point of entry to the pavement design charts, which follow,
interpolating load values where necessary.
Flexible Pavement Requirements - US Army Corps of Engineers Design Method

Section 7-5-0 uses procedures in Instruction Report No S-77-1 ”Procedures for Development of CBR
Design Curves”, dated June 1977 and as modified according to the methods described in ICAO
Aerodrome Design Manual, Part 3. Pavements, 2nd Edition, 1983, Section 1.1 (The ACN-PCN
Method), and utilizing the alpha factors approved by ICAO in October 2007.
The report was prepared by the U.S. Army Corps Engineers Waterways Experiment Station, Soils and
Pavement Laboratory, Vicksburg, Mississippi”. The line showing 10 000 coverages is used to calculate
Aircraft Classification Number (ACN).
Page 1
7-1-0 Apr 01/13
@A340-200/-300
Flexible Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion Method

The flexible pavement charts in Section 7-6-0 show Load Classification Number (LCN) against
equivalent single wheel load (ESWL), and ESWL against pavement thickness.
All LCN curves shown in ’Flexible Pavement Requirements’ were developed from a computer program
based on data in International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) document 7920-AN/865/2,
Aerodrome manual, Part 2, ”Aerodrome Physical Characteristics”, Second Edition, 1965.
Rigid Pavement Requirements - PCA (Portland Cement Association) Design Method

Section 7-7-0 gives the rigid pavement design curves that have been prepared with the use of the
Westergaard Equation.
This is in general accordance with the procedures outlined in the Portland Cement Association
publications, ”Design of Concrete Airport Pavement”, 1973 and ”Computer Program for Airport
Pavement Design”, (Program PDILB), 1967 both by Robert G. Packard.
Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion

Section 7-8-0 gives data about the rigid pavement requirements for the LCN Conversion.
- For the radius of relative stiffness,
- For the radius of relative stiffness (other values of E and µ).
All LCN curves shown in Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN conversion - were developed from a
computer program based on data in International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) document 7920-
AN/865/2, Aerodrome manual, Part 2, ”Aerodrome Physical Characteristics”, Second Edition, 1965.
Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion - Radius of Relative Stiffness.
The rigid pavement charts show LCN against ESWL, and ESWL against radius of relative stiffness.
Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion - Radius of Relative Stiffness (other values of E and
µ)
The rigid pavement charts show LCN against ESWL and ESWL against radius of relative stiffness
affected by the other values of E and µ.
ACN/PCN Reporting System
Section 7-9-0 provides ACN data prepared according to the ACN/PCN system as referenced in ICAO
Annex 14, ”Aerodromes”, Volume 1 ”Aerodrome Design and Operations.” Fourth Edition July 2004,
incorporating Amendments 1 to 6.
The ACN/PCN system provides a standardized international aircraft/pavement rating system
replacing the various S, T, TT, LCN, AUW, ISWL, etc... rating systems used throughout the world.
ACN is the Aircraft Classification Number and PCN is the corresponding Pavement Classification
Number.
An aircraft having an ACN equal to or less than the PCN can operate without restriction on the
pavement.
Numerically the ACN is two times the derived single wheel load expressed in thousands of kilograms.
The derived single wheel load is defined as the load on a single tire inflated to 1.25 Mpa (181 psi)
that would have the same pavement requirements as the aircraft.
Computationally the ACN/PCN the system uses PCA program PDILB for rigid pavements and S-77-1
for flexible pavements to calculate ACN values.

@A340-200/-300
The Airport Authority must decide on the method of pavement analysis and the results of their
evaluation shown as follows :
PCN
PAVEMENT SUBGRADE
TIRE PRESSURE CATEGORY EVALUATION METHOD
TYPE CATEGORY
R -- Rigid A -- High W -- No Limit T -- Technical
F -- Flexible B -- Medium X -- To 1.5 Mpa (217 psi) U -- Using Aircraft
C -- Low Y -- To 1.0 Mpa (145 psi)
D -- Ultra Low Z -- To 0.5 Mpa (73 psi)
Section 7-9-0 shows the aircraft ACN values.

For flexible pavements, the four subgrade categories are :
- A. High Strength CBR 15
- B. Medium Strength CBR 10
- C. Low Strength CBR 6
- D. Ultra Low Strength CBR 3
For rigid pavements, the four subgrade categories are :

- A. High Strength = 150 MN/m3 (550 pci
Subgrade k
- B. Medium Strength = 80 MN/m3 (300 pci)
Subgrade k
- C. Low Strength = 40 MN/m3 (150 pci)

7-5-0 Flexible Pavement Requirements - U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Design Method
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Flexible Pavement Requirements - US Army Corps of Engineers Design Method S-77-1
1. This section gives data about the flexible pavement requirements.
The flexible pavement requirements graphs are given for the lowest and the highest MRW of each
type of aircraft.
They are calculated with the US Army Corps of Engineers Design Method.
To find a flexible pavement thickness, you must know the Subgrade Strength (CBR), the annual
departure level and the weight on one MLG.
The line that shows 10 000 coverages is used to calculate the Aircraft Classification Number (ACN).
The procedure that follows is used to develop flexible pavement design curves:
- With the scale for pavement thickness at the bottom and the scale for CBR at the top, a random
line is made to show 10 000 coverages,
- A plot is then made of the incremental values of the weight on the MLG,
- Annual departure lines are made based on the load lines of the weight on the MLG that is shown
on the graph.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--005-A, calculation of the thickness of the flexible pavement for:
- A ”CBR” value of 10,
- An annual departure level of 3 000,
- The load on one MLG of 80 000 kg (176 375 lb).
The required flexible pavement thickness is 48.5 cm (19 in).

**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Flexible Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion
1. This section gives data about the flexible pavement requirements for Load Classification Number
(LCN) conversion.
The flexible pavement requirements graphs are given for the lowest and the highest MRW of each
type of aircraft.
To find the aircraft weight that a flexible pavement can support, you must know the LCN of the
pavement and the thickness.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--004-A, calculation of the thickness of the flexible pavement for:
- The flexible pavement thickness is 1143 mm (45 in) with a related LCN of 103.
The weight on one MLG is 80 000 kg (176 375 lb).
2. Flexible Pavement Requirements - LCN table
The following table provides LCN data in tabular format similar to the one used by ICAO in the
”Aerodrome Design Manual Part 3, Pavements - Edition 1977”. In order to use the system accurately
you should know the total pavement thickness for flexible pavement.
However, the pavement thickness for a particular runway are not frequently published in the standard
airport information sources (Jeppesen, AERAD, DOD, etc.).
Therefore it is common practice to use a standard thickness (20 in) when determining the LCN and
the ESWL of the aircraft.
If the LCN for an intermediate weight between MRW and the empty weight of the aircraft is required
or if the real thickness is known, refer to figures that follow.

**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Rigid Pavement Requirements - Portland Cement Association Design Method
1. This section gives data about the rigid pavement requirements for the PCA (Portland Cement
Association) design method.
The rigid pavement requirements graphs are given for the lowest and the highest MRW of each type
of aircraft.
To find a rigid pavement thickness, you must know the Subgrade Modulus (K), the permitted
working stress and the weight on one MLG.
The procedure that follows is used to develop rigid pavement design curves:
- With the scale for pavement thickness on the left and the scale for permitted working stress on
the right, a random load line is made.
This represents the MLG maximum weight to be shown.
- A plot is then made of all values of the subgrade modulus (k values).
- More load lines for the incremental values of weight on the MLG are made based on the curve for
k= 80MN/m3 already shown on the graph.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--004-A, calculation of the thickness of the rigid pavement for:
- A k value of 80 MN/m3 (300 lb/in3).
- A permitted working stress of 35.15 kg/cm2 (500 lb/in2).
- The load on one MLG is 80 000 kg (176 375 lb).
The required rigid pavement thickness is 242 mm (10 in).

7-8-0 Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion
**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Rigid Pavement Requirements - LCN Conversion
1. This section gives data about the rigid pavement requirements for the Load Classification Number
(LCN) conversion (radius of relative stiffness).
The rigid pavement requirements graphs are given for the lowest and the highest MRW of each type
of aircraft.
To find the aircraft weight that a rigid pavement can support, you must know the LCN of the
pavement and the radius of relative stiffness (L).
The calculation of the radius of relative stiffness (L) is done with the formula and the table given in
”Radius of Relative Stiffness” (L values based on Young’s Modulus (E) of 4 000 000 psi and
Poisson’s Ratio (µ) of 0.15), see FIGURE 7---0-99--002-A.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--008-AFIGURE 7---0-99--008-B, calculation of the aircraft weight

through the radius of relative stiffness (L) of the rigid pavement for:
- The radius of relative stiffness is shown at 1143 mm (45 in) with a related LCN of 79.
The weight on one MLG is 80 000 kg (176 375 lb).
The following table provides LCN data in tabular format similar to the one used by ICAO in the
”Aerodrome Design Manual Part 3, Pavements - Edition 1977”. In order to use the system accurately
you should know the total pavement radius of relative stiffness (L-value) for rigid pavement.
However, the pavement radius of relative stiffness for a particular runway are not frequently published
in the standard airport information sources (Jeppesen, AERAD, DOD, etc.).
Therefore it is common practice to use a standard radius of relative stiffness (30 inches) when
determining the LCN and the ESWL of the aircraft.
If the LCN for an intermediate weight between maximum ramp weight and the empty weight of the
aircraft is required or if the real thickness is known, refer to figures that follows.
2. Radius of Relative Stiffness (Other values of E and µ)
This section gives data about the rigid pavement requirements for the Load Classification Number
(LCN) conversion (radius of relative stiffness with other values of E (Young’s modulus) and µ
(Poisson’s ratio).
The other values of E and µ have an effect on the radius of relative stiffness value L.
The effect of E and µ on the radius of relative stiffness value L is shown in the diagrams of FIGURE
7---0-99--015-A.
The table in FIGURE 7---0-99--002-A Radius of Relative Stiffness (L), shows values L based on a
Young’s modulus (E) of 4 000 000 psi and a Poisson’s ratio (µ) of 0.15.
To find values L, you must know the values of E and µ.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--015-A, calculation of values L of the rigid pavement for an E of 3
000 000 psi.

@A340-200/-300
The ”E” factor is 0.931.

The radius of relative stiffness value L is the value found in the table FIGURE 7---0-99--002-A
multiplied by 0.931.

**ON A/C A340-200 A340-300

Aircraft Classification Number - Flexible and Rigid Pavements
1. This section gives data about the Aircraft Classification Number (ACN) for an aircraft gross weight in
relation with a subgrade strength value for flexible and rigid pavement.
The flexible and rigid pavement requirements graphs are given for the lowest and the highest MRW
of each type of aircraft.
To find the ACN of an aircraft on flexible and rigid pavement, you must know the aircraft gross
weight and the subgrade strength.
NOTE : An aircraft with an ACN equal to or less than the reported PCN can operate on that
pavement, subject to any limitation on the tire pressure.
(Ref: ICAO Aerodrome Design Manual, Part 3, Chapter 1, Second Edition 1983).
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--014-A (sheet 1), calculation of the ACN for flexible pavement for:
- An aircraft gross weight of 200 000 kg (440 925 lb),
- A medium subgrade strength (code B).
The ACN for flexible pavement is 42.
Example, see FIGURE 7---0-99--014-A (sheet 2), calculation of the ACN for rigid pavement for:
- An aircraft gross weight of 200 000 kg (440 925 lb),
- A medium subgrade strength (code B).
The ACN for flexible pavement is 40.
2. Aircraft Classification Number - ACN table
The table FIGURE 7---0-99--004-A and FIGURE 7---0-99--005-A provide ACN data in tabular format
similar to the one used by ICAO in the ”Aerodrome Design Manual Part 3, Pavements - Edition
1983”. If the ACN for an intermediate weight between MRW and the minimum weight of the aircraft
is required, refer to figures that follows.
