balked landing
go around
Three landing requirements: Landing climb
landing climb = missed appproach = one engine inoperative ==> climb gradient not less 0.75 % at an altitude of 1500 ft AGL
a) critical engine inoperative and its propeller in teh min. drag positio
b) the remaining engine at not more than MCP
c) gear and flaps retracted
d) climb speed not less than 1.2 * VS1
Thrust Equation
T = m air mass flow through the engine * ( V out - V in) engine out and inlet speed
Are jet aeroplnes usually flying a holding with a speed that results în teh lowest fuel flow?
no => they are flying at the speed with the min. Drag. This speed is slightly higher than the speed with the lowest fuel flow => => stable speed range
Drag is proportional to weight
higher weight requires more thrust and results in an increased fuel flow
An aft C.G. leads to?
an aft C.G. leads to a lower tail-down force => Just as with a lower mass, lift has to be decreased => further aft the C.G., the higher the endurance and the range
Effect of Altitude jet airplanes
jet engine efficiency increases with altitude up until the Optimum Altitude ==> ==> For piston engines; its max. endurance corresponds to the min. required power and decreases significantly with altitude ==> corresponds to the min Drag situation
Effect of temperature for jet engines
endurance decreases at high OAT => usually ignored
Effect of wind for jet engines
max. endurance is not affected by wind and wind has no effect on specific range =>but with headwind the Range on ground decreases
Max. Altitude
highest altitude the aeroplane can reach in level flight with selected Mach number and max. cruise thrust => highest altitude at max. climb thrust with 300 fpm vertical speed
max. operating altitude
max. permissible flight altitude. It is limited z.B. by max. cabin differential pressure
Buffet Altitude
at which the max. g-load corresponds to the respective mass and cruise procedure is defined as the 1.3 g buffet altitude ==> at high altitudes the max. possible bank angle g-load or pull up g loaf may be very small in order to avoid high speed buffets
Effect of Temp. on the Optimum Altitude
does not depend on OAT ==> if max altitude is lower than optimum altitude, max altitude is the optimum altitude
Effect of speed on the Optimum Altitude
the higher the Mach never, the lower (slightly) the optimum altitude
On short distance you do not fly on optimum altitude do to
a senseless climb followed by a steep descent
Reasons to not fly at the optimum altitude
ATC, short distance, better wind at higher or lower level, optimum altitude is above max. altitude, optimum is above the max. operating altitude, engine failure, flight level optimization concerning high speed
Which speed is flowing durinh holding
=>= Min Drag cruise => speed for min drag
Optimum Holding Altitude
at which an aeroplane has the lowest fuel flow for a given mass
A holding is normal completed within 4 minutes => every 2 minutes a turn ==> Turn higher fuel flow = in longer holding what?
in longer holding avoid excessive turns!
MRC
Maximum Range Cruise (MRC): For each combination of mass, altitude and aeroplane configuration there is one particular speed at which max, specific range (SR max) is obtained
LRC
Long Range Cruise: at which the aeroplane is operated at a higher than MRC (max. range cruise) => leading to 99% of the max specific range + Speed is ca. 5% higher rhan by MRC
When is flying with LRC
long range cruise => if the flight is conducted with high fuel economy but acceptable speed => z.B. engine failure or cabin decompression
