Aero Factors Flashcards
1
Q
PAST
A
Plane Yaw/Rolls to inop engine. Left side is critical engine due to: P-factor Accelerated slipstream Spiraling Slipstream Torque
2
Q
Factors that effect Vmc
A
SMACFUM Standard day conditions Most weight Aft CG Critical engine windmilling Flaps/landing gear Up to 5 bank Max power
3
Q
Slideslip vs. Zero Slideslip
A
Only rudder (yaw) will inc drag. Bank (2-5) creates horizontal component of lift minimizing need for rudder and therefore less drag than otherwise. Fuselage is aligned w/relative wind. Ball split.
