Problem is do you know what the basis of the chart you might be using is ? For the old DCA P-charts, the CAO 101.22 factors were built in. If ...
Notwithstanding a literal reading of the CAO, the aim is to be conservative in determining the LW limited takeoff weight or local landing weight when ...
With the graphic, I can run a calculation. Reading via a drawing package (which allows for very accurate plotting), the answer looks to be 20.6nm f...
Dan, I don't have a copy of Bob's book so I don't know just what it might say. The only concern I might have with your first post is that it ...

Thanks, Sam. I'll chase up an answer via CASA/Airservices. I guess that a gremlin has crept into the mix along the way and it will be a simple ...
That presents a very significant potential problem. Could you post a scan of the Jepp chart, please ? I will take the question back to CASA for r...

The discussion presumes that the elevator trim setting remains constant. As bank increases, the aircraft's lift vector inclines into the turn and t...
A read through pp96-104 in Hurt's text might be a good place to start.

And well might you be a little confused. First, it is important to keep in mind that the old DCA format P-Charts (eg Echo) used for the exam predat...
A silly question - the answer to which revolves around logical semantics rather than anything of direct interest to the pilot. Often, this sort of ...
Possibly, you might be trying to overthink this a tad. Much of the problem is that pilots generally get a fairly superficial introduction to ISA an...
