  Chapter 16: Navigation › Distance D = GS X T › Fuel Consumption

  preflight planning. When planning a flight, you must determine how much fuel is needed to reach your destination by calculating the distance the aircraft can travel (with winds considered) at a known rate of fuel consumption (gal/hr or lbs/hr ... determines the time the flight will take. The amount of fuel needed for a given flight can be calculated by multiplying the estimated flight time by the rate of consumption. For example, a flight of 400 NM at 100 knots…

  Chapter 13: Transition to Multiengine Airplanes › Weight and Balance

  Pilots should use care to determine whether or not oil has to be added to the weight and balance calculations or if it is already included in the figures provided. The multiengine airplane is where most pilots encounter the term ... actual airplane is not devoid of fuel at the time of loading, of course. This is merely a calculation that assumes it was. If a zero fuel weight limitation is published, then all weight in excess of that figure should…

  been completed in one direction, proceed to the opposite direction. When both directions have been calibrated, apply the calibrated calculations to all timed turns. In order to accomplish a timed turn, the amount of heading change needs to be established ... change in heading from 120° to a heading of 360°, the pilot calculates the difference and divides that number by 3. In this case, 120° divided by 3° per second equals 40 seconds. This means that it would take…

  Pilots that have a system unable to calculate a temperature corrected DA or MDA will manually calculate an altitude correction for the MDA or DA. NOTE-Some systems apply temperature compensation only to those altitudes associated with an instrument approach ... system is not used to make the correction. Use TBL 7-3-1, ICAO Cold Temperature Error Table, to calculate the correction needed for the approach segment…

  Chapter 10: Weight and Balance › Determining Loaded Weight and CG › Weight Addition or Removal

  exactly the aft limit. Solution: A simpler solution may be obtained by using a computer or calculator and a proportional formula. This can be done because the CG will shift a distance that is proportional to the distance the weight ... aircraft will be changed by the addition or removal of weight. When this happens, a new CG must be calculated and checked against the limitations to see if the location is acceptable. This type of weight and balance problem…

  will be set to the current airport temperature (-12°C) and activated prior to passing the IAF. A manual calculation of the cold temperature altitude correction is required for the MDA/DA. 1. Individual Segments Method: Missoula requires correction ... intermediate and final segments. However, in this example, the missed approach is also shown. (a) Manual Calculation: Use the appropriate steps in the All Segments Method above to apply a correction to the required segment. (1) Intermediate. Use steps…
