Take Off Flashcards
What is the start of takeoff called?
Brakes release.
The take off ends once the aircraft had passed blank.
Screen height.
What does the screen height depends upon?
The class of aircraft.
What is the screen height for a class B aircraft taking off?
50ft.
What is the screen height for a class A aircraft taking off of a dry runway?
35ft.
What is the screen height for a class A aircraft taking off of a wet runway?
15ft.
What is reference zero?
Elevation of runway at the departure end,
What speed is reached at the screen height?
Take off safety speed.
When do we reach VLOF?
Just before rotation.
When will VMBE be low : light or heavy a/c.
Heavy.
When will VMBE be low : cold or hot?
Hot.
What does wind do to the climb angle?
Nothing.
What does a headwind increase with regard to angles?
Climb flight path angle.
What does CLTOM stand for and what does it mean?
Climb limited take off mass. The heaviest mass at which a certain climb
gradient can be achieved.
TRUE OR FLASE : the CLTOM takes into account
- obstacles
-wind
False flase
What is a gradient and which is a clearance height : OLTOM / CLTOM?
OLTOM : clearance vs CLTOM : gradient
How do you measure angle of climb?
Vertical/horizontal x 100
How do you know your optimum flap setting on a TOD vs flaps graph?
Where RLTOM and CLTOM cross.
The Maximum Performance-Limited TOM, which ensures compliance with the applicable operational requirements for a Commercial Air Transport operation is the blank of the lowest mass limits for each Flap/Slat position setting:
Higher
