2.6. Procedure to change the PERF FACTOR
The PERF FACTOR should be regularly updated based on the routine aircraft performance monitoring. This paragraph details the procedure to change the PERF FACTOR in the CDU/MCDU.
Airbus recommends that only authorized and qualified staff members perform this procedure. The crew should not change the value by themselves.
The PERF FACTOR can only be modified on ground.
Note: On fly-by-wire aircraft, the PERF FACTOR is displayed in CYAN when on ground (modifiable) and in GREEN when airborne or when no change code was entered (not modifiable). It is displayed in large blue font, following a modification.
