ONE ENGINE INOPERATIVE LANDING 

Autoland is available with one engine inoperative.  Maximum use of the AP should be made to minimise crew workload. If an Autoland is not possible, e.g.due to airport equipment limitations. Fly a manual approach. A manual approach and landing with one engine inoperative is conventional. Use rudder trim to keep the sideslip indication centred. The sideslip indication remains yellow as long as N1 on the remaining engine(S) is below 80% with flap selected and thrust above 80% N1, the indicator changes to the engine out mode blue B target.  This visual cue indicates the aircraft is approaching it's maximum thrust capability. Although the A/THR is available, some pilots May prefer to use manual as they find it easier to anticipate rudder inputs as the power changes. 

Avoid selecting the gear down in level,  as high thrust settings will be required,  increasing the handing workload. 

To make the landing run easier,  it is recommended to reset the rudder trim to zero in the later stages of the approach.  Anticipate the increased rudder force required as the trim is removed when the rudder trim reset button is pressed. With rudder trim at zero,  the neutral rudder pedal trim position corresponds to zero rudder and zero nose wheel deflection. 

After touchdown,  use any remaining reverser(s).

CIRCLING ONE ENGINE INOPERATIVE 

A circling approach with one engine inoperative requires the downwind leg to be flown in CONF 3 with landing gear extended. In hot and high conditions. The aircraft may not be able to maintain level flight in CONF 3 with landing gear down. in this case. Landing gear extension should be delayed until leaving the circling altitude until the gear is locked down and depending on the circling altitude, 

It is possible to receive the L/G Gear not down ECAM Warning (below 750 ft RA) or a GPWS "TOO LOW GEAR" (below 500 ft RA)  However with a minimum circling altitude of 1000 ft AAL it is unlikely that this problem will be encountered.
