Density height scale not published on CASA workbook
Jas created the topic: Density height scale not published on CASA workbook
Hi there, I am using book revised for DEC 2-2021 version. After its publication have CASA removed the density height scale in their PPL, CPL, workbook for Landing and take off performance charts ? as in the book the explanation shows that if density height given we can directly plot it on the graph as our starting point.
If they have actually changed their charts does it means there will be any new method to start off them ? if density height given in the question ?

The scale is still there, it's just not printed.
If you enter with an appropriate Hp and OAT you will get the relevant Hd. So, given Hd, pick a value for Hp, work out the OAT and enter with Hp/OAT to get Hd. Just a minor nuisance.
Be aware that some of these charts are drawn pretty dreadfully and the Hd values are a bit all over the shop.

The simplest way to enter at density height, if there is no density height scale given, is to enter at pressure height and go to the ISA temperature at that pressure height.
