Grass strip performance
Can anyone help. A mate is developing his strip and knows it has a 5% slope. There are some trees at the top.
At what point does it become an advantage to land uphill with a tailwind, and likewise take off downhill with a tailwind?
Is there a way of factoring 5% slope into take off and landing calca. I know the CAA say use 10% for a 2% slope.
Any comments from experienced strip users welcome, however untechnical!
Thanks in advance.
