This guide will help you comprehend the importance of maintaining optimal cabin pressure, ensuring a safe and comfortable flight experience. ECAM (Electronic Centralized Aircraft Monitoring) plays a vital role in displaying cabin pressure warnings. When a pressurization warning occurs, it indicates a potential issue with the outflow valve or other pressurization components. Flight crew must respond […]

The A320 pressurization system is a critical component that ensures a safe and comfortable cabin environment for passengers and crew. This advanced system operates in two primary modes: manual and automatic. In automatic mode, the system schedules and commands the outflow valve using FMGS and flight-phase inputs (not altitude alone), allowing for optimal cabin pressure […]
Why Pressurization Matters In modern airliners like the Airbus A320, maintaining a safe and comfortable cabin environment is essential at cruise altitudes above 30,000 ft. At these heights, ambient pressure and oxygen levels are far too low for passengers and crew. The A320 pressurization system automatically controls the cabin altitude, rate of change, and differential […]
