Required Takeoff field length
Is the longest distance among
1) 115% of Takeoff dist with all engines operative
2) Takeoff dist with OEI
3) accelerate stop dist with OEI
Optimum Altitude
Altitude that gives the best fuel mileage for a given cruising airspeed and weight.
Buffet Margin
Flight Altitude at which manouvring load factor of 1.3G or more for smooth air or light turbulence being expected as well as 1.5G or more for moderate or severe turbulence can be obtained in level flight.
Speeds to be used when FMCS is inoperative
Climb 250/290/.78
Cruise 290/ .78
Descent.78/ 290/ 250
Cost index
CI range from 0-9999
CI-0 Lowest fuel consumption MRC
CI 9999 max available speed
Econ cruise speed CI 73
ANA 20, 40, 73, 110, 150, 200
CI 200 is considered so cruise speed does not exceed M0.83 in case of strong headwind
Inputting a higher cost index than 73 will have an effect on performance in the FMS i.e. Max Alt etc and pilots should be aware of this
Supplemental conditions for required fuel calculation
Taxi Fuel - in principle is 47lb / min and taxi out of 10 min are considered.
In normal flight planning the the taxi fuel data for each airport should be used.
APU fuel flow is included in the taxi fuel as it is minor. APU fuel flow is 4lb / min
Increase in total fuel flow with anti-ice
Engine anti-ice………………..4lb / min
Engine and wing anti-ice … 5lb/ min
