Vmbe

17
Q

What is the RoC at te service ceiling?

A

a value above 0

18
Q

what is the required minimum turn around time to avoid wheel brake plugs melting?

A

53 minutes

19
Q

what manoeuvre limit is used for buffet onset boundary charts?

A

1.3g

20
Q

What is the max operating altitude for an aircraft?

A

The maximum altitude an A/C can fly at due to the differential pressure between the cabin and the outside.

AKA pressurisation altitude

21
Q

What should be assumed if only specific range is mentioned?

A

it is specific air range

22
Q

What does ther increase V2 procedure do to CLTOM and RLTOM?

A

CLTOM increases

RLTOM stays the same

23
Q

What is meant by a ‘downhill’ component of weight?

A

the component in the direction of drag in a climb

24
Q

how many values of V1 are there for a balanced airfield at the FLLTOM?

A

1

25
Q

What is required for the approach in wet and stormy/gusty conditions?

A

an increased speed and a firm landing.

26
Q

what is the max assumed temperature limit for the reduced TO procedure?

A

55degC

27
Q

for the net enroute flight path, above what height must an aircraft be able to achieve a +ve RoC?

A
