- Chapter 11: Aircraft Performance › Performance › Climb Performance
Positive climb performance occurs when an aircraft gains PE by increasing altitude. Two basic factors, or a combination of the two factors, contribute to positive climb performance in most aircraft: 1. The aircraft climbs (gains PE) using excess power above ... that required to maintain level flight, or 2. The aircraft climbs by converting airspeed (KE) to altitude (PE). As an example of factor 1 above, an aircraft with an engine capable of producing 200 horsepower (at a given altitude…

Diverse Departure Obstacle Assessment to 25/46 NM 4. Takeoff Obstacles. Takeoff Obstacles Notes in the “Takeoff Minimums and (OBSTACLE) Departure Procedures” section of the Terminal Procedures Publication (TPP) identifies obstacle(s) that penetrate the 40:1 OCS. The obstacle notes ... alert the pilot to the height and location of the obstacles relative to the DER so they can be avoided. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways: the pilot may be able to see and avoid the obstruction…

source of range and endurance operating data included in the performance section of the AFM/POH. Cruise control of an aircraft implies that the aircraft is operated to maintain the recommended long-range cruise condition throughout the flight. Since fuel ... consumed during cruise, the gross weight of the aircraft varies and optimum airspeed, altitude, and power setting can also vary. Cruise control means the control of the optimum airspeed, altitude, and power setting to maintain the 99 percent maximum specific…

altitude gained relative to the time needed to reach that altitude. ROC is simply the vertical component of the aircraft’s flight path velocity vector. For maximum ROC performance, a pilot flies the aircraft at VY so as to achieve ... gains the greatest vertical distance over a period of time. For example, in a maximum AOC profile, a certain aircraft takes 30 seconds to reach 1,000 feet AGL, but covers only 3,000 feet over the ground. By comparison…
