Take-off hydroplaning vs. Landing hydroplaning

The 2001 report NLR-TP-2001-216 Safety aspects of aircraft performance on wet and contaminated runways gives additional and updated information related to the NASA/Horne's equation. Have a look at chapter 2.3 Hydroplaning in this report and you will see that there are differences related to "spin-up", "spin-down" and radial tyres.

Table 1 in the report shows Typical take-off, landing and hydroplaning speeds of commercial jet and turboprop aircraft
