Performance
Przegląd
Performance covers takeoff and landing performance calculations, climb and cruise performance, and the effects of variables like temperature, altitude, weight, wind, and runway conditions. You must be proficient in reading and interpreting performance charts and graphs.
Kluczowe tematy
- Takeoff performance and TODA/TORA/ASDA/LDA
- Takeoff decision speeds (V1, VR, V2, VMCG, VMCA)
- Climb performance and gradient requirements
- Cruise performance — range and endurance optimization
- Landing performance and factors
- Effects of density altitude on performance
- Contaminated runway operations
- Engine failure procedures and performance
- Obstacle clearance requirements
- Performance Class A, B, and C aircraft differences
