TLR Terms

Question 1

ALD

Answer 1

Actual Landing Distance

Question 2

How is ALD determined?

Answer 2

Test Pilots landing on Dry Runways with no Thrust Reversers

Question 3

What is ALD used for?

Answer 3

1. Dispatch

2. Emergencies

Question 4

How are the dispatch runway landing lengths calculated?

Answer 4

ALD * 1.67 (60% rule).

Answer 8

1. Engine Failure
2. Engine Fire
3. Unsafe to Fly
4. Loss of Directional Control

3. Complex Special

Question 11

Simple EFP

Answer 11

No Turn Below 1,000’

Question 12

Simple Special EFP

Answer 12

Turn Below 1,000’

Question 13

Question 16

What is VT?

Answer 16

FLAPs up speed

Question 17

What is the OEI Horizontal Limit?

Planned Maximum Takeoff Weight

Question 19

What does RLNG mean in the TLR?

Answer 19

Rolling

Question 20

When do gusts become a factor for maximum crosswind component?

Answer 20

Contaminated Runways

Question 21

What is PMRLW

Answer 21

Planned Maximum Allowable Runway Landing Weight

Question 22

Where do the “RLD-DRY” numbers on the TLR come from?

Answer 22

ALD x 1.67. (60 percent rule). These numbers are what is required to get you legally off the ground.

Question 23

Where do the 6, 5, 4, 3… etc. numbers come from on the TLR?

Answer 23

OLD numbers with an additional 15%. So OLD * 1.15… the 1, 2, 3, 4 are runway condition codes.

Question 24

What are the limit codes in the landing data section of the TLR?

Answer 26

C - Climb
B - Brakes
T - Tires
F - Field
A - Maximum

Question 27

What is landing distance data based on?

Answer 27

Crossing the beginning of the available landing distance at 50’ AT Vref

Question 28

What will make RLD-Dry Distance increase?

Answer 28

15% for not dry
15% for Low Visibility Landing (4,000)

Not more than once, it does not stack

DRY will change to WET

Question 29

When should the Cost Index - Econ Speeds be used in flight?

Answer 29
