AA1205 Takeoff & Landings Flashcards
How is Takeoff performance affected by RCR
no affect
How is Landing performance affected by Weight
higher Touchdown speed and landing roll
How is Landing performance affected by Flaps
Lower Touchdown speed and landing roll
How is Landing performance affected by temperature
increases landing roll
How is Landing performance affected by pressure altitude
increases landing roll
How is Landing performance affected by winds
head winds decrease roll and tailwinds increase roll
How is Landing performance affected by RCR
No affect on aerobrake but decreases effectiveness of normal braking, thus inceasing landing roll
How does ground effect change aerodynamic forces
more lift and less induced drag
What height does ground effect occur
1/2 the wingspan
What is the max speed for optimum braking
100 KCAS
Between 130 and 100 KCAS, what type of breaking should be used
Cautious
What can happen when optimum braking is applied above 100 KCAS
locked wheels, skidding, tire failure, and loss of directional control
How long should you aerobrake
from touchdown until just prior loss of elevator authority (approx 100-120 KCAS)
After aerobraking, how should you apply brake and for how long
cautious or moderate until below 100 KCAS
Below 100 KCAS what kind of braking should you use
optimum
