Q

Take-Off Rated Thrust (TRT)

And what variables affect it?

A

TRT is the maximum allowable thrust (determined by fan speed, N1.

Varies with pressure altitude, RAT, and bleed air usage. Operation limited to 5 MIN

Q

Critical Field Length (CFL)

A

Total length of runway required to accelerate on all engines to “Critical Engine Failure Speed”, have engine failure then continue to lift off or stop.

Used during T/O planning to determine MAX gross weight for a safe T/O and climbout. Safe T/O…CFL can’t be greater than RWY available

Q

Take-Off Flare

A

Ground distance covered between lift off and 50 foot obstacle clearance height

17
Q

Take-Off Speed

A

The speed which permits attaining the obstacle climb out speed at or before reaching the 50ft obstacle height above the runway

18
Q

Climb-out Speed (Vco)

A

Scheduled single engine climb-out speed that should be obtained at or prior to reaching the 50ft obstacle height.

Due to excess thrust W/ two engine, two-Engine climb-out speed is Vco+10.

19
Q

Climb-Out Factor

A

Variable used to determine Takeoff/Climb performance, and obstacle clearance.

MIN 2.5 for all takeoffs

20
Q

Intersection T/O

A

Authorized as long as the RWY remaining is at least 6,000ft or CFL which is greater. (Performance restrictions may apply)

21
Q

Minimum Runway Length Landing

A

MIN RWY length for full stop LDG is 6,000 or computed landing distance, whichever is greater.

22
Q

Minimum Runway Length Takeoff

A

6,000 ft, CFL, or distance to reference zero, whichever is greater

23
Q

Go/No Go Speed (S1)

A

The takeoff is committed at indicated airspeeds at or above it. If an engine failure occurs prior to obtaining it and action is taken to stop the aircraft before obtaining it, takeoff abort capability is assured.

In takeoff planning it is equal to or greater than the higher of ground minimum control speed or critical engine failure speed. However, it must not be higher than the lowest of refusal speed, rotation speed, or maximum braking speed. If it is higher, the takeoff weight must be reduced until this requirement is met

24
Q

As much as _____ million ft-lbs of energy per mile of taxi can be absorbed by the brakes; if taxiing on a downhill grade, assume brakes absorb _____ million ft-lbs of energy

A

.5 million ft-lbs

2 million ft-lbs

25
Q

When is an acceleration check required?

A

S1 < Vrot

26
Q

Takeoff acceleration check should be adjusted to be at least ______ kts less than S1

A

10 Knots

27
Q

S₁ equation

A

Vmcg, Vcef ≤ S₁≤ Vr, Vrot, Vb

28
Q

Minimum Control Ground Speed (Vmcg)

A

88kts

The minimum controllable speed during the take-off run, at which, when an engine is failed, it is possible to maintain directional control using only primary aerodynamic controls w/o deviating more than 25ft laterally on all three wheels.

29
Q

Vmcg is established with

A

Remaining engine at TRT

The aircraft loaded at most unfavorable weight and CG

A/C trimmed for takeoff,

Without exceeding 180 lbs of rudder control force with rudder boost operating.

Conditions of crosswind and RCR may increase Vmcg

30
Q

Minimum Control Airspeed (Vmca)

A

89 kts

32
Q

Vmca speed is established

A

33
