Sharklet introduction – certification • The Sharklet is certified through a significant major change (classification according to EASA Part 21). The target date for the official approval is end of November 2012 for A320. • The sharklet doesn’t create any new model. For that reason, it remains as part of the existing EASA TC.

SRM • Complete revalidation of existing SRM is ongoing for both reinforced Aircraft and Sharklet Aircraft

• Objective is to complete all SRM task revalidation by end 2013 • Outlook today indicated 65% temporary & ADL revalidated for Sharklet Aircraft A320 EIS: • Nose Fwd fuselage (s11/12), Fwd fuselage (s13/14), Aft fuselage (s18), Aft Tail cone (s19.1), PAX doors, landing gear doors, belly fairings, VTP,THS, rudder, elevator, pylons

• SRM introduction includes Aircraft reinforcement and sharklet modifications into repairs / ADL effectivity list.

• Repairs shown as not applicable would need RAS in case-by-case basis • Sharklet device ADL/Repairs on-going: • Metallic Leading Edge ADL (Scratches, Gouges, Abrasions, Corrosion and Dents) • Lightning Strike damage • Sharklet composite structure repairs

• Sharklet SRM coverage will be maintained vs current A320. Same level of reparability vs current A320 family Page 23 © AIRBUS S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.

Impact Flight Ops & Training Domain • AFM / FCOM: • To be updated to reflect Perfo improvements • Minor adaptation to reflect sharklet impact on systems

• WBM :

no change for A320 possible minor changes on Weight and CG data for A319 or A321

• MMEL: • Update of perfo charts • Possible update due to introduction of LAF (Load Alleviation Function)

• Maintenance & Flight training: Minor update

(mainly on Familiarization

training)

• No impact on crew qualification – same type rating Page 24 © AIRBUS S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.

A320 Family Regional Seminar

Impact Flight Ops & Training Domain - dispatch • Dispatch after sharklet heavy damage (out of SRM and CDL scope) • Ferry Flight with damaged sharklet removed and replaced by a complete wingtip (modified wingtip compatible with reinforced wing). • Benefit: Wingtip & fence can be transported in A320 Family. Sharklet can’t. • Will be managed through AFM specific instructions. Targeted at 1Q13 • Perfo penalties under definition → Flight Tests to be completed by end Oct2012

• CDL : complete scope under review • Available at 1st EIS: static discharger. • Other CDL items under review: nav & strobe lights glazing's , PSU access door Page 25 © AIRBUS S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.

Flight Ops : performance tools update • Impact on performance applications • PEP •

[Performance Program] → new version 5.2.1 with new performance Database FlySmart with Airbus (former LPC NG) → new version L3.2 with new performance Database Pre-requisite: version L3.0 shall be already in service in the Airline

• Availability • PEP 5.2.1 and PAADMIN 7.1 • FlySmart with Airbus

20 Nov 2012 10 Dec 2012

Spare & transportation • Spare sharklets • Two sets of sharklets planned to be available at EIS in Airbus to support the fleet. One set in Singapore and one in Hamburg at EIS.

• Out of production secured Parts that will be out of production after Aircraft reinforcement is standard in production have been identified and secured for aftermarket (Airbus Material, Logistics and Suppliers in Hamburg).

• Sharklet transportation • Airworthy box defined → (H)1186mm X (W)1722mm x (L)4572mm

• Fits in A330/A340 and cargo • Do not fit into A320 Family Aircraft Page 27 © AIRBUS S.A.S. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.
