05-07 Take-Off Distance
Description
1 Take-Off Distance
Conditions
Power lever MAX
Flaps T/O
Runway dry, paved, level
Nose wheel lift-off v
R
Airspeed for initial climb v
50ft
The following factors are to be applied to the computed take-off distance for the noted condition:
Headwind Decrease by 4% for each 5 kt (2.6 m/s) headwind.
Tailwind Increase by 20% for each 5 kt (2.6 m/s) tailwind.
Grass runway, dry, 5 cm (2 in)
long
Increase the ground roll by 10%.
Grass runway, dry, 5 cm (2 in)
to 10 cm (3.9 in) long
Increase the ground roll by 15%.
Grass runway, dry, 25 cm
(9.8 in) long
Increase the ground roll by 25%.
Grass runway, longer than
25 cm (9.8 in)
A take-off should not be attempt.
Grass runway, wet Increase the dry grass runway distance calculation by 10%.
Soft ground Increase the ground roll by 45% (in addition to the grass runway
distance calculation, if applicable).
Uphill slope Increase the ground roll by 14% for each 1% (1 m per 100 m or 1 ft per
100 ft) slope.
If brakes are not held while applying power, distances apply from where full power setting is reached.
WARNING
FOR A SAFE TAKE-OFF THE AVAILABLE RUNWAY LENGTH
MUST BE AT LEAST EQUAL TO THE TAKE-OFF DISTANCE OVER
A 50 FT (15 M) OBSTACLE.
WARNING
POOR MAINTENANCE CONDITION OF THE AIRPLANE,
DEVIATION FROM THE GIVEN PROCEDURES, UNEVEN
RUNWAY, AS WELL AS UNFAVORABLE EXTERNAL FACTORS
( RAIN, UNFAVORABLE WIND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING CROSS-
WIND) WILL INCREASE THE TAKE-OFF DISTANCE.
