If it is very soft (or wet), or the snow is more than 1”deep Multiply by 1.6
If you have to take-off with a tailwind Multiply by 1.2 for every 4
knots of wind
Now to be sure, multiply by 1.33, to take into account that you may not fly the aeroplane as
well as the company test pilot did when he worked out the values in the manual.
5.6 Landing performance Landing performance for short dry grass for
your aircraft are contained in Annex A. Using the figures above, the

have sufficient runway to avoid using the considerately provided hedge
at the far end of the runway.
For every 1000ft you are above sea level multiply by 1.05
For every 10
0
C above 15
0
C air temperature multiply by 1.05
For every 2
%
of downslope multiply by 1.1
If the runway is tarmac or concrete multiply by 1.2
If the ground is soft, or there is snow or wet grass multiply by 1.25
If the ground is very soft (or wet) or if the snow is more
than 1” deep multiply by 1.6
If you have to land with a tailwind multiply by 1.2 for every 4
knots of wind
Now to be sure, multiply by 1.33, to take into account that you may not fly the
