16. FLIGHT PLANNING
16.1 SEP
The optimum profile to a SEP is to climb to the nearest semi§circular level below the full
throttle height until the TOD.
16.1.1 Climb Calculations
Ok…
Recall:
GS = NGM
TAS NAM
16.1.2 Cruise Power Setting Calculations
Ok…
16.1.3 Range Calculations
Table estimate the maximum SAR (Specific Air Range)
Enables the pilot to rapidly select a suitable cruising level for a given power setting.
No T° taken in account!
TAS?… cf. Cruise Power Setting tables. (T° taken in account)
16.1.4 Endurance Calculations
Not affected by wind… it’s a time! Its depends on Pressure altitude and power setting.
16.2 MEP
Power Settings are expressed in %:
75%: High Speed
65%: Eco
55&45%: Long Range
RMK/ Climb Calculations: to find TAS from the given IAS of climb (120kts) use the
Computer (IAS=RAS & OAT => TAS…) or the Rule of Thumb (TAS⇑ 1,98kt/1000ft), but the
most accurate way, is to use the “Time to climb”, and the “NAM” founded with this table!
Cruise Calculation: to find TAS from given Pwr Setting, use the Speed Pwr table.
