1T-6A-1 T-6A Flight Manual: Appendix A

Question 1

How does the following affect TOLD?

RCR / Headwind / Temperature / PA

Answer 1

1. Lower RCR will increase landing roll and lower abort speed.
2. Headwind will decrease landing and takeoff roll.
3. Higher temperature will increase landing and takeoff roll.
4. Higher PA will increase landing and takeoff roll.

Question 2

What is dry, wet, icy RCR? (A3-1)

What is RCR?

Answer 2

Runway Condition Report (RCR) is a measure of the braking friction coefficient, RCR is given as a whole number.

Values vary from 26 (max) to 2 (minimum brake friction coefficient.

Dry - 23
Wet - 12
Icy - 5

Question 3

Maximum braking speed (A3-1)

Define

Answer 3

Maximum speed from which the aircraft can be brought to a stop without exceeding the maximum design energy absorption capability of the brakes (3.96 million ft/lbs)

Question 4

Assumptions for maximum abort speed (A3-2)

What are they?

Answer 4

1. Maximum braking without skidding tired
2. Hard surface runway
3. Observe maximum braking speed
4. Speed based on idle selected 3 seconds after abort speed, brakes applied 3 seconds after idle selected

Question 9

Max range vs max endurance (A5-2)

What is max endurance?

Answer 9

The fuel flow that will allow you to maintain level flight for the maximum amount of time.

Diamond on AOA.

8.8 units.

Minimum fuel flow in level flight.

Question 10

Max range vs max endurance (A5-2)

What is max range?

Answer 10

Level flight speed which yields the maximum value of nautical air miles per pound of fuel flow.

Triangle on AOA

4.9

Question 11

Long range cruise percent of max range (A5-2)

What is it?

Answer 11

Yields 99% of maximum range

Question 12

Landing distance assumptions (A8-2)

What are they?

Answer 12

1. 3-degree approach to the 50-foot obstacle height
2. Idle power and threshold speed as determined by the chart at 50 feet
3. 2-second delay from touchdown to braking
4. Maximum braking obtained once the aircraft is firmly on the ground and continues to a full stop
5. Braking friction coefficient for a dry asphalt or concrete runway corresponds to an RCR of 23
