What do these speeds mean

Vr, V2, Vt

A

Vr - The speed that will allow the airplane to reach v2 by 35ft at the departure end
V2 - Speed that meets the 2nd climb segment (most restrictive of 2.4%)
Vt - Speed that will meet the remaining climb gradients of 1.2%

52
Q

When are destination and first alternate considered

Marginal?

A

Destination Ceiling = Mins for HAT
Visibility = Mins for visibility
Alternate Ceiling = Derived Mins for HAT
Visibility = Drived Mins for Visibility

53
Q

What are conditions for 3585?

What must the main body of the forecast be?

A

Destination
At or above 1/2 of landing
minimums (Visibility only)
Main body - at or above mins

At or above 1/2 derived Alternate
Minimums (Visibility and Ceiling) Main body - at or above derived alternate mins 

               2nd Alternate
  At or above derived alternate
  Minimums (Visibility and Ceiling) Main body - at or above derived alt mins
