# Onboard Airport Navigation System (OANS) & Brake To Vacate (BTV) | ||
|
||
Both the OANS (also known as Airport Navigation Function on the A350) and BTV add a high operational benefit to the A380, | ||
without them operations with optimal turnaround times and navigation on complex airports would be hardly possible. | ||
|
||
This advanced guide introduces the basic operation of the airport navigation function, the approaching runway advisory as | ||
well as setup and operation of BTV. | ||
|
||
!!! warning "Disclaimer" | ||
<p style="color:coral;">Navigraph Ultimate subscription required</p> | ||
The OANS function currently relies on data provided by Navigraph, which can only be accessed with a Navigraph Ultimate | ||
subscription. | ||
|
||
We're working on enabling OANS using the MSFS scenery data, however this is work-in-progress. | ||
|
||
BTV can be set up manually without the OANS airport map through the OANS control panel, this is however not explained in this guide. | ||
|
||
--- | ||
|
||
## Airport navigation | ||
|
||
The OANS features a moving airport map on the flight crew's navigation display (ND). Any airport contained in the Navigraph | ||
AMDB database can be selected for display. | ||
|
||
On the ground at the departure airport, the airport map should be loaded automatically. | ||
Airports can always be selected manually through the OANS control panel, which can be opened via the arrow button on the lower | ||
right of the ND. After selection of an airport, a click on "DISPLAY AIRPORT" loads the airport map. | ||
|
||
![Select airport](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/oans-cp-select-airport.png) | ||
|
||
The OANS airport map is active in ROSE NAV, ARC and PLAN EFIS mode. In PLAN mode, any airport of the database can be displayed. | ||
In all modes, the center of the map can be moved using the mouse (click and drag in the instrument). | ||
|
||
If you want to center the map on the aircraft again, double click on the map to open the context menu and select "CENTER ON ACFT". | ||
|
||
![Center on ACFT](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/oans-center-on-acft.png) | ||
|
||
## Approaching Runway Advisory | ||
|
||
If the aircraft is on ground and ground speed is below 40 knots, OANS continuously checks the aircraft protection area | ||
in front of the aircraft (as widge as the wingspan, foresight of 7 seconds) for runways. When detecting a runway inside this | ||
area, an advisory is triggered on the PFD and ND. The advisory disappears, if the above conditions aren't met anymore, or | ||
the aircraft entered the runway. | ||
|
||
There is no aural warning (as RAAS). | ||
|
||
![Runway ahead](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/oans-runway-ahead.png) | ||
|
||
## BTV setup | ||
|
||
As part of the descent preparations, BTV is usually set up. After having selected the landing runway in the FMS, switch | ||
the EFIS mode selector to PLAN, and load the destination airport using the OANS control panel. The airport map now shows | ||
your destination airport, with the FMS landing runway marked with a green arrow in front of the runway identifier (QFU). | ||
Clicking on the runway identifier selects this runway for BTV. | ||
|
||
After selecting a runway, OANS displays two magenta lines projecting the required minimal stopping distance to DRY and WET | ||
conditions. The targeted exit should be chosen after the WET line only, to provide a safety margin. To finalize the | ||
selection, the runway exit is selected by clicking on the corresponding label. | ||
The upper left of the ND now shows: | ||
|
||
- The runway identifier, length and bearing | ||
- The exit identifier, and requested stopping distance | ||
- The runway occupancy time (ROT) in seconds | ||
- The turnaround time in minutes, with full reverse and idle reverse during rollout | ||
|
||
![No selection](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/btv-setup-no-selection.png) | ||
![Runway + exit selected](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/btv-setup-selected.png) | ||
|
||
To finalize the setup, the auto brake mode selector knob is turned to the "BTV" option, which arms BTV (this should be | ||
checked in the PFD's FMA). | ||
|
||

![PFD FMA: BTV armed](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/pfd-btv-armed.png) | ||
|
||
## BTV operation after touchdown | ||
|
||
After touchdown of the main and nose wheel landing gears, BTV should now become active in the PFD's FMA. At first, BTV is | ||
going to use reversers (which of course have to be operated by the flight crew) to slow down the aircraft, then braking | ||
will become active at lower speeds. This is done to lower the brake temperatures, enabling a quicker turnaround. | ||
A green bar indicates the predicted stopping distance. | ||
|
||
![OANS during rollout](../assets/advanced-guides/oans-btv/btv-active-stopbar.png) | ||
|
||
BTV disarms, when one of these conditions apply: | ||
|
||
- The aircraft reaches the runway exit at the release speed of 10 knots | ||
- Flight crew applies a larger braking force through the pedals than BTV | ||
- Auto brake mode selector is turned to the DISARM position | ||
- A/THR instinctive disconnect push buttons (on the outside of the thrust levers) is pushed | ||
|
||
For the last three conditions, the "AUTO BRK OFF" memo and aural callout will be triggered. |

# Overview | ||
|
||
Welcome to the A380X Advanced Guides. | ||
|
||
This is a collection of guides and tutorials for real A380 features which go beyond the scope of our beginner guide. This collection will grow over time as we add topics and also add features to the A380X add-on. | ||
|
||
Each page was reviewed by an A380 type rated pilot and provides accurate information for aircraft operation. | ||
|
||

Please be aware that different airlines may have slightly different procedures at different stages of flight. | ||
