Q

V_1wet

A

A wet runway has a reduced braking, coeffcient of friction which means less deceleration during a rejected take-off.

If the decicion at V1wet is to continue, the AC need only be 15ft at the end of the TODA.

Q

The requirement for TOD on a wet runway?

A
  • TOD_dry: The take-off distance on a dry runway described on the previous page, i.e., TOD_N dry and 1.15 × TOD_N dry.
  • TOD_wet: The horizontal distance along the take-off path from the start of the take-off to the point at which the aeroplane is 15 ft above the take-off surface for a wet runway, assuming the critical engine fails at a V_EF corresponding to V_MU wet, and ensuring that V_2 is achieved before the aeroplane is 35 ft above the take-off surface.

Q

The TOR on a dry runway?

A

The take-off run on a dry runway is the greater of:

  • TOR_N dry: The horizontal distance along the take-off path from the start of the take-off to the point equidistant between V_LOF and where the airplane is 35 ft above the take-off surface with an engine having failed at V_EF.
  • 1.15 × TOR_N dry: 115% of the horizontal distance along the take-off path from the start of the take-off to the point equidistant between V_LOF and where the airplane is 35 ft above the take-off surface with all engines operating.

Q

The TOR on a wet runway?

A

The take-off run on a wet runway is the greater of:

  • TOR_N wet: The horizontal distance along the take-off path from the start of the take-off to the point at which the airplane is 15 ft above the take-off surface for a wet runway, consistent with achieving V2 before reaching 35 ft, with the critical engine failing at V_EF.
  • 1.15 × TOR_N wet: 115% of the horizontal distance along the take-off path with all engines operating from the start of the take-off to a point equidistant between the point at which V_LOF is reached and the point at which the airplane is 35 ft above the take-off surface.

Q

ASD on a dry runway?

A
  • The ASD on a dry runway is the greater of the all-engine ASD and critical-engine-out ASD (ASD_N-1).
  • As per CS-25.109(f), we take no account of reverse thrust on a dry runway.

Q

ASD_N-1

A

ASD_N-1 is the sum of the distances necessary to:

  • Accelerate the aeroplane from a standing start with all engines operating to V_EF for take-off from a dry runway.
  • Allow the aeroplane to accelerate from V_EF to the highest speed reached during the RTO, assuming the critical engine fails at V_EF and the PF takes the first action to reject the take-off at V_1 on a dry runway.
  • Come to a full stop (no reverse thrust) on a dry runway from the highest speed reached, plus a distance equivalent to two seconds at the V_1 speed

Q

The ASD on a wet runway?

A
  • The ASD on a dry runway.
  • ASD_N and ASD_N-1 as above for a dry runway except that the runway is wet and the corresponding wet runway values for V_EF and V_1 are used. The effects of reverse thrust may be included.

Q

Why may it not be possible to have V1 which gives a balaced take off?

A
  • V1 balanced is less than V_MCG
  • Greater then V_BRE
  • Greater than VR

Q

How to maximise TORA?

A
  • Don’t release breaks before take off power applied.
  • Do loose to much space when lining up.
