Dornier 328-1xx, short field aircraft???

[Kaijakk]

Hola!


I'm wondering if anyone knows if the 328 is able to operate(with max load) on an airfield with a published LDA of 890m,TORA 950m/TODA 1130m and elevation 243'?

These are the AFM performance data numbers for the Dornier 328-100 at sea level on a standart day, dry runway, no slope, no wind with max TOM:

Take-off Run: 750 meters
Take-off distance: 865 meters
Accelerate-stop distance: 1080 meters

Actual landing distance @ max landing mass and flaps 20°: 710 meters (unfactored!)

Unfortunately, I do not have the data available for a flaps 32° landing. Maybe someone else on this forum does?

Hope this helps...

Thanks for the reply!

The aircraft in question is a Dornier 328-110. I belive this aircraft is better suited for shorter fields??

Link to the landing chart of the airfield:

Is operation with a 328-110 doable at this one??

On a no-wind standart day at max TOM definitely not. The accelerate-stop-distance is the limiting factor. You'd have to be really light (somewhere around 11 tons max, and that limits your payload to zero) and have at least 5 knots of headwind to meet that requirement.

You could land with passengers, but you'd have to take off empty.

Doable, but not advisable...
