Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 Standard Operating Procedures - Ground Spoilers do not Deploy Automatically After Landing

EASA Safety Information Notice No. 2008-10 is a safety information notice addressing the Airbus A318, A319, A320, and A321 aircraft. It highlights an issue where ground spoilers do not deploy automatically after landing if one throttle lever remains above idle, which can inhibit autobrake activation and contribute to landing overruns. The document provides updated standard operating procedures to mitigate this risk.
