PERFORMANCE CHARTS PRESENTATION
GRADIENT LOSS DUE TO A STEADY TURN
This chart shows the gradient loss due to a steady turn as a function of
the bank angle.
RADIUS OF TURN AND SPEED CONVERSION
This chart shows the radius of turn and the true airspeed to be used
on the turning flight path calculation as a function of the indicated
airspeed (V2), airport pressure altitude, outside air temperature and
the bank angle.
HORIZONTAL DISTANCE AND TIME TO COMPLETE
This chart shows the horizontal distance and the elapsed time during a
turning flight as a function of the radius of turn, heading change and
the bank angle.
NOTE: if necessary, the heading change may be divided in segments
and the elapsed time of each segment should be added.
