Great Performance Thread

Wow, I haven't been able to post for a while,but this is one of the coolest threads I've seen in a long time...But it does raise some curiosities.

Old Smokey or John Tullamarine:

Could this type of correction for RWY slope be applied under the FARs, or would that be way too limiting ?... It sounds like a 'polar equivalent' of 'Linear regression analysis' dA1/dV2=0?

Also, is there a neat way to include tailwinds in the above method or is that just too limiting with the above technique? and is another method more suitable, and if so what is it?...if you don't mind my asking?

Lastly, for us lay folk-like me- i'm real curious about some of the stuff you Guys mentioned i.e 'H3', 'Sledge hammer'?... Way too technical for me to get my head around the geometry

I think FAR 25 also has the 50% rule for AEO TO??

Anyways this is a great discussion,I appreciate EX Douglass Driver for posting this
