So we can see exactly how your solution is travelling, can you post a picture of your sheet ?
I've only just now spotted this question. It's a fairly standard use of a trimsheet and the answer falls out relatively easily. How about you pos...

[color=blue][i][b]So, in correctly inputting the correct QNH on the subscale for that aerodrome before take-off, the Altimeter mainscale on the ground...
That sounds about right to me ... Although it may sound a bit like nit-picking, we need to keep in mind that the altimeter is a barometer - not a t...

All fine there, Stuart. Being the No. 1 WCA ticket holder (since way back at the start of July 1976) I have a little thing about SGs. For the...
You've missed a couple of points along the way, I fear. First, you need to check the CG for both ZFW and TOW. You have checked for TOW and then c...
I think that you might need to go back to the text books and review basic altimetry. Your calculation has figured out the pressure height, which is...
[i][b]Please if your not willing to help, don't help and post with anger[/b][/i] I was not then, nor am I ever, angry - a very wasteful emotion in ...
Instead of just seeking an easy way to do the problem, why don't you consider scanning and posting your attempt at the answer and then we can critique...

I'd take a slightly different perspective (but still much the same story) to that of my colleague, Carello. If we have some fluid (in this case, ai...
I'll write up some notes on this question as Va, in particular, is full of OWTs throughout the piloting fraternity. In recent years the regulators h...
