Refer to figure or CAP 698 Figure 3.2.
Mass: 4350 lb
Elevation: 2000 ft
Temperature: 32°C
Wind: 100/04
Runway: 34
Determine the accelerate stop distance of an MEP aircraft, fitted with heavy duty brakes in the following conditions:
Refer to figure.
With RWY34 and wind 100º/4kts, we have an angle of 120º (wind from rear right)
Tail wind component = Wind Speed x cosine (Relative Bearing)
With RWY34 and wind 100º/4kts, we have an angle of 120º (wind from rear right)
Tail wind component = Wind Speed x cosine (Relative Bearing)
Tail wind component = 4 x cosine (120) = -2 kts
| Graphical Distance | 4400 ft | |
| Heavy duty brakes installed | x 0.93 | Reduce distance by 7% |
| Total Distance | = 4 092 ft |
