Level <strong>Flight</strong> Acceleration tables.<br />
The flight model identification start by level flight acceleration analysis, because it allows to define<br />
the relation between the engine thrust law (installed thrust) and the null lift drag coefficient (even at<br />
low speed, level flight acceleration involve low incidence profile where drag is very close to null lift<br />
drag)<br />
The acceleration performance are given in the L-15 Manual by graphics, one page per altitude, where<br />
curves give the time needed to reach a given Indicated Air Speed (in Km/h) form an initial one. The<br />
curves display the variation of this time depending on the Drag Index, the solid one is related to<br />
standard atmosphere (ISA), the dotted one to ISA+10°C.<br />
Let’s start by the figures extracted from L-15 flight manual for Full A/B at 500m (1,640 ft).<br />
