Q

Constant weight and config. The aircraft always takes off at what speed?

A

EAS (Ekki GS eðlilega því ef það er mikill vindur í fangið þá tekur þú á loft á litlum gs).

Q

Ef þú klífur á constant CAS, hvað gerist fyrir EAS og af hverju?

A

EAS decreases. Málið er að EAS er minni en CAS því CAS inniheldur compression factor (sem er auðvitað ekki hægt að lesa sem hraða) og því er í EAS búið að draga þann faktor frá. Þegar þú hækkar flugið þynnist loftið og loftið er “more compressible” og þessi frádráttarþáttur orðinn meiri = Minna EAS.

Q

Hver er þumalputtareglan til að finna TAS út úr IAS?

A

2% aukning á IAS fyrir hverjar 1000 ft.

Ef þú ert á FL60 á 100 IAS þá er TAS væntanlega 120 kts. Hef samt alveg séð miðað við 110 kts. Því er grófleg áætlun væntanlega látin duga.

Q

Ef að EAS value er hærra en TAS value, hvað er þá að gerast?

A

Density of the atmosphere must be greater than the ISA mean sea level air density. Sé þetta þannig að TAS er að leiðrétta EAS alveg niður í jörð, en ef gildið er orðið minna, þá ertu í raun kominn neðar en jörðin sjálf (below sea level), þar sem loftið er þéttara en við sea level.

Q

Hvað gerist fyrir CAS þegar OAT decreases? En TAS? En Mach?

A

CAS og Mach breytast ekkert. TAS minnkar í kulda. Loft er þéttara í kulda held ég og því ferðu hægar í gegn um það.

25
Q

Static blocked en pitot virkar í descent. Hvað gerist?

Vélin gefur upp of háan hraða.

Hún er að nýtast við þunnt loft að ofan sem static en er að fá þéttara og þéttara RAM air.
