Formula Flashcards
1
Q
TOD calculation (NM) ?
A
∆FL / 3°
60 / 3 = 20 NM
2
Q
VS calculation (fpm) ?
A
GS * 5% = GS / 2
240 / 0.2 = 1200 fpm
3
Q
Standard turn bank approximation ?
A
TAS*15% ≈ TAS/10+7
180°/1’
4
Q
Arc DME anticipation ?
A
GS / 200
5
Q
FPNM on a 3° slope ?
A
FPMN = slope*100 = 300ft/NM
6
Q
Relation between slope and gradient ?
A
Grad (5%) * 0.6 = Slope (3°)
7
Q
DA add-on ?
A
add-on DA = accALT - DA * (1-act% / req%)
8
Q
Final dist required at defined ALT (NM)
A
ALT / 300 (for a 3° slope)
3000AAL / 300 = 30 / 3 = 10NM
