Assumed/flex Temp Effect On TORA And ASDA
Hi...
The following is an excrept from HANDLING BIG JETS page 204,(a)
[ The assumed temperature method of reducing thrust to suit T/O weight does so at constant thrust/weight ratio and the actual T/O distance TORA and ASDA at reduced thrust are less than at full thrust and full weight by approximately 1% for every 3 degrees centigrade that the actual temperature is below the assumed temperature]
can this statement be validated,and if so,should this reduction/correction be applied or is it already accounted for in the runway analysis chart?
