calculating B777 speeds
Wanted to know if there is an interpolating software / programme for calculating t/o speeds for the B777 as the weights are only in steps of 20 tonnes

If you need a programme to interpolate speeds provided for 20 Tonne weight increments, invest in an EFB with OPT incorporated. That should set you back by a lot of money.:eek:
If you still fly a 'paper' B777, Boeing assume that then end-user pilots have average mathematical capability, and are capable of the rather simple interpolation involved.:uhoh: Regards, Old Smokey |
Next you'll be asking what you need to know in the FCOM:ugh:

Change the input parameters for BPS and you can have weights in any increments you desire, although considering that the speeds involved are relatively small, I find it scary that you can't interpolate in your head !

Simply? Do it like this (arbitrary figured I am not 777 rated):
WEIGHT | SPEED 100t | 150kts 120t | 160kts 160 - 150 = 10. 10 / 200 = 0.05 0.05 x difference in weight above 100t in 100kg increments = Answer. For example. Aircraft weighs 116.2t: 162 x 0.05 = 8.1 150 + 8.1 = 158.1 kts V1 is therefore 158kts. Horgy |
Judging from his location.... Air India.
