<strong>Aircraft</strong> <strong>Climb</strong> <strong>Performance</strong>2,000 feet and 210 knots IAS• The thrust developed by each engine has been calculated atthe prescribed Mach number (0.3267) and climb speed (214.6knots)• The aircraft has four engines so the total thrust for the climbcondition is,T total= T h,Mnwheren is the number <strong>of</strong> engineT h,Mis the thrust at altitude and Mach numberT total= 265,450(4) = 1,061,800 Newtons• This is the total thrust developed by four engines at 210 knotsand 600 meters above sea level under ISA conditionsVirginia Tech - Air Transportation Systems Laboratory15
