Just received my copy of the CAA's new book
LASORS 2000 (good value of a fiver)
(BRL I would not dream of advertising on behalf of the CAA!)
Page 494 reprints the performance factors, from the Safety Sense leaflet & AICs.
According to that:-
For a 2% uphill slope, the takeoff distance is increased by 10%
I seem to recall, from somewhere, that it is not correct to assume therefore, that a 3% upslope would increase the take off distance by only 15%.
Isn't the calculation of the increase far more complicated than that? (So that 3% would give an increase of FAR more than 15%?)
Any of you techie minded people out there, know the answer please?
