View Full Version : B727 Runway Performance Program

Does anyone have a simple program (spreadsheet or otherwise) that can accept input such as TOGW, temp, PA and wind, and provide an estimate of runway length required for a B727-100?

I'm interested in locating something like this for rough planning purposes. I realize that runway slope, obstacle clearance, and second segment climb are not addressed - I'm just interested in answering "yes-no-maybe" type of questions.

The aircraft is a B727-100 with -9A engines.

You could always ask Boeing for the Mark7 program with the performance database for the 727-100.

I wonder what they'll charge for that...

Thanks.

It will probably depend on how many B727's you operate and if the engine/airframe combination is readily available.

Try contacting their Flight Operations Engineering people in Tukwila.

There again, if you plan on leaving out slope, obstacles and climb requirements, you could always tabulate the field length limit charts.

Good Luck.
