SAMPLE PROBLEM
(Continued)
FUEL REQUIRED
The total fuel requirement for the flight may be estimated using the
performance information in Figure 5-6 and Figure 5-7. For this sample
problem, the time, fuel and distance to climb may be determined from
Figure 5-6 for maximum rate of climb. The difference between the
values shown in the table for 5500 feet and 1500 feet results in the
following:
These values are for a standard temperature and are sufficiently
accurate for most flight planning purposes. However, a further
correction for the effect of temperature may be made as noted on the
climb chart. The approximate effect of a nonstandard temperature is to
increase the time, fuel and distance by 10% for each 10°C above
standard temperature, due to the lower rate of climb. In this case,
assuming a temperature 16°C above standard the correction would be:
With this factor included, the fuel estimate would be calculated as
follows:
Using a similar procedure for the distance to climb results in 7 nautical
miles.
The resultant cruise distance is:
