Flaps setting calcs, NTOFP, Obstacle accounting, climb variables (24-05-18) Flashcards

1
Q

What are the steps for calculating best flap setting for TO?

A

Correct flap setting RLTOMs for HWC (add mass) or TWC (minus mass)

Select lowest from each flap setting out of CLTOM and RLTOM

Select the highest mass from the flap settings.

24
Q

A

400ft

27
Q

For a class B aircraft with OEI, what climb gradient must be acheived at the end of the NTOFP (1500ft) with gear and flaps up, MCP and failed engine prop feathered?

A

0.75% gradient

28
Q

A

From initial semi-width expanding away from the end of the TODA to a maximum expansion:

29
Q

Regarding obstacle accountability, how is semi width calculated at a give point from the end of the TODA?

A

It is the smallest of:

initial semi-width + expansion

or

maximum semi width

30
Q

How is initial semi width calculated for obstacle accountability?

A

1/2 wingspan + 60

(max 90)

31
