Re: Changes in the West
Dear All,
I can assure you that PH DCT TGT is 1030 nm, which the F50 will traverse in 248 minutes (nil wind, 260 kts).
Let's do the sums:
Empty Op Wt. = 13650 kgs
Full Fuel = 4050 kgs
TOTAL = 17700 kgs
Now, at 32C and nil wind, RTOWs / payloads are as follows:
Rwy 12 19920 kgs / 2220 kgs (19920-17700)
Rwy 30 20820 kgs / 3120 kgs (20820-17700)
So, at 94 kgs per pax (84 kgs + 10 kgs baggage), pax uplift ex TGT equals:
Rwy 12 23.6 pax
Rwy 30 33.2 pax
Remember, this is at 32C, nil wind enroute, nil holding at PH etc etc.
So, the direct service is not a goer, especially with full pax.
Perhaps via KG (deja vu NJS), and with enroute stop available?
Cheers,
