A320 VIBRATION REPORTING SHEET

NOTE FOR FLIGHT CREWS (Also print all of paragraph 3.A.)

When permitted by time and flight conditions, the flight crew must complete the VRS correctly. This
will help the maintenance personnel to find the post-flight corrective actions.
- All fields with the mark (*) are mandatory.
- Observations about vibrations (start or stop) must be given in relation to the normal flight sequence (in
stabilized flight or after a parameter change made to obey the flight plan).
In each box, make a mark in the applicable section.
NOTE: FOR MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL, REFER TO TSM TASK 05-50-00-810-801 FOR

(4) PARAMETER CHANGE (AP OFF, FDs ON) THAT HAS AN EFFECT ON VIBRATIONS
AND/OR NOISE F/O:
If permitted by time and flight conditions, the flight crew can apply flight control inputs (with AP OFF,
which is not permitted in RVSM airspace during level flight or during altitude capture of the cleared FL.)
to identify the source of vibrations. The flight control inputs must be small and smooth and applied on:
-The sidestick for pitch and roll to obey FD orders
-The rudder trim (+/- 1.5° MAX) for yaw. Do not use the rudder pedals.
