CHAPTER 7
Mission Planning
7.1
INTRODUCTION
Refer to the performance chart to determine the capability of the aircraft for takeoff, climb, cruise, descent, and
landing for a complete mission under any combination of conditions and circumstances. Mission planning requires
consideration of all factors affecting the successful completion of the assigned mission. Most commonly, mission
planning determines the fuel load necessary for the safe accomplishment of a given mission for which cargo load and
distance are known. The aircraft has a three-fold capability: use as an air refueler, use as a cargo/passenger carrier,
and use on special missions, such as search-and-rescue and aerial delivery. The mission requirements will, of
necessity, dictate the planning considerations. Survival equipment for crew and passengers must be compatible with
the mission to be flown.
Note
Mission requirements permitting, the escape ladder leading to the center
overhead cargo compartment escape hatch will be installed when
passengers are embarked.
7.2
WEIGHT AND BALANCE
It is the pilot in commmand’s responsibility to ascertain that the takeoff and anticipated landing gross weights have
been determined and that center of gravity limits are not exceeded. Refer to Handbook of Weight and Balance, NA
01-1B-40, and Chapter 4 of this manual for information on weight limitations. Make certain that the weight and
balance clearance (Form F) is complete.
Note
Accurate cargo weights shall be obtained prior to the loading of the aircraft
and the computation of Weight and Balance Clearance Form. Accurate
passenger and baggage weights should be obtained whenever possible. If
accurate passenger and baggage weights cannot be obtained, the estimated
passenger weight of 200 pounds per person and baggage weight of 50
pounds per person should be utilized.
7.3
FLIGHT PLANNING PROCEDURES
Determine the type of flight and whether long-range or high-speed cruise is dictated by the mission requirements.
7.3.1 Long-Range Cruise (Utilizing Constantly Decreasing Torque with Decrease in Weight)
1. To establish long-range cruise, set fuel flow and cross-check torque from the operating chart for the particular
flight gross weight and altitude. For nonstandard temperature conditions, hold constant the standard day fuel
flow. Torque and IAS will remain approximately the same.
2. For constant-altitude operation, decrease power settings for each 5,000 pounds of fuel burnoff. Establish
power settings at a gross weight 2,500 pounds higher than the weight shown in the operating chart. For
7-1
ORIGINAL
01-75GAL-1
example, the settings for 105,000-pound gross weight would be used from 107,500 pounds down to 102,500
pounds, thus averaging the speed, torque, and fuel flow values given. Airspeed initially will be slightly below
and will gradually increase to slightly above the value shown.
7.3.2 Long-Range Cruise (Utilizing Constant True Airspeed)
To establish cruise at a constant true airspeed, maintain climb power on the aircraft until the desired indicated airspeed
is obtained. Reducetorqueforthe remainderof theflight to maintain this true airspeed as theaircraft becomes lighter
in weight.
7.3.3 High-Speed Cruise
Fly maximum continuous TIT for all gross weights, attitudes, and outside air temperatures. Power settings for
standard temperature and correction factors for non-standard temperature are given in the operating chart.
CAUTION
Do not exceed maximum level-flight speed.
Note
D Engine sulfidation occurs when engines are run at high temperatures for
long periods of time. Operating engines at less than maximum conditions
will greatly extend turbine life.
D The use of maximum-range operating tables extends turbine life as long as
an appropriate altitude is selected for initial cruise.
7.3.4 Maximum Endurance
When maximum endurance is required, use power settings to maintain the airspeed from the performance charts for
the gross weight and the flight altitude.
7.4
FACTORS AFFECTING RANGE
7.4.1 Effect of Altitude on Range
Since engine-specific fuel consumption improves with increasing altitude, maximum range is obtained by
four-engine cruise-climb operation. Cruise-climb operation provides greater range than can be obtained by flying at
a constant altitude or with partial power operation (three or two engines) at a lower altitude. One exception is under
conditions of high wind shear, when operation at a lower altitude may provide greater ground miles per pound of fuel.
Also, some missions may be restricted below optimum range altitude because of traffic control, passengers, oxygen,
or pressurization considerations. The determination of optimum cruise altitude for maximum-range capability
requires a comparison of the actual ground miles per pound of fuel for the existing wind/altitude conditions under
consideration.
7.4.2 Effect of Nonstandard Temperature on Range
1. For long-range cruise, utilizing the performance charts, fly constant standard-day fuel flow. Range will
increase 2 percent for each 10 _C above standard temperature, and decrease 2 percent for each 10 _C below
standard temperature.
ORIGINAL
7-2
01-75GAL-1
2. For high-speed cruise, fly constant maximum-cruise power. Range will increase 5 percent for each 10 _C
above standard temperature, and decrease 5 percent for each 10 _C below standard.
3. The performance charts provide correction factors for temperature effects.
7.4.3 Effect of Wind on Range
The specific range charts are predicted on a zero-wind condition, so that long-range cruise may be defined as that
airspeed that gives 99 percent of maximum range in still air. To maintain 99-percent long-range cruise, as headwind
is encountered, airspeed should be increased 1.5 percent for each 10 knots of headwind. However, in practice, this
factor can be neglected with conservatism.
7.4.4 Effect of Gross Weight on Range
For constant-altitude operation, specific range increases with decreasing gross weights. Since maximum range is
achieved by decreasing power settings and indicated airspeed with decreasing gross weights, it is recommended that
a new power setting be established for each 5,000 pounds of fuel burnoff if utilizing the performance charts.
7.4.5 Effect of Partial-Power Cruise on Range
Maximum range is obtained by four-engine operation at optimum cruise altitude. At altitudes below the optimum
cruise altitude for any gross weight, specific range may be increased by partial-power cruise, three- or two-engine
operation. At lower altitudes (25,000 feet and below) range can possibly be extended by three- or two-engine
operation;however,thisconsiderationshouldbecarefullyplanned,asanyimprovementinspecificrangeisafunction
of gross weight, altitude, and headwind component. A false sense of fuel saving could easily result in aloss ofrange.
7.4.6 Effect of Icing on Range
Since the aircraft pressurization and wing and empennage anti-icing is accomplished with hot-air bleed from the
engine compressor, a power loss occurs when these systems are used. The pressurization power loss is small, but the
anti-icing power loss, under severe conditions, can result in losses up to 25 to 30 percent. Normally, the aircraft will
cruise at altitudes at which most icing weather can be overflown. However, if operation is at an altitude where
continuous icing is encountered, the effect on cruising is considerable. Maximum anti-icing has the following effects
on cruise control:
1. True airspeed is decreased 20 percent.
2. Fuel flow is decreased 6 percent.
3. Range is decreased 16 percent.
7.4.7 Effect of Fuel Temperature on Range
Maximum range is affected by fuel temperature variation because of the change in fuel density, pounds per gallon.
For example, 1 gallon of JP-4 fuel at a temperature of 30 _F weighs 6.65 pounds, whereas 1 gallon of JP-4 fuel at
a temperature of 80 _F weighs 6.34 pounds.
7.4.8 Effects of Alternate Fuel On Range
Alternate fuels, because of their density, also vary range capabilities. For example, at 60 _F without the fuselage tank,
the aircraft has a maximum single-point refueling capacity of 9,316 gallons of any fuel, which equates to 63,349
pounds of JP-5 but only 53,567 pounds of 115/145 aviation gasoline for aircraft with pods. See Figures 4-3 and 4-4
for alternate fuel preference and weight per gallon.
7-3
ORIGINAL
01-75GAL-1
CAUTION
Do not refuel the aircraft to its volume capacity with JP-5/JP-8
(standard-day density of 6.79 ppg), since the maximum permissible fuel
weight will be exceeded.
7.4.9 Effect of Increased Headwind Versus Higher Altitude
For planning purposes, when maximum range becomes a consideration and the specific range performance charts
are utilized, an increase of more than 5 knots of headwind component for each additional 1,000 feet of altitude
climbed will result in a reduction of maximum range.
7.5
FUEL REQUIREMENTS
Careful analysis of fuel requirements must be made for all flights. In addition to the fuel requirements set forth by
the current OPNAV Instruction 3710.7 and other controlling instructions, it is recommended that the fuel
requirements be in accordance with the following:
1. Average fuel for taxi and runup prior to takeoff is 1,000 pounds. For taxi without runup, the average fuel
requirement is 500 pounds.
2. Sufficient fuel to fly from takeoff point to preplanned altitude over destination and thence to alternate, if one
is required, plus 10 percent.
3. Approach fuel of 1,000 pounds.
4. Holding fuel of 1,034 pounds (20 minutes of fuel at 10,000 feet maximum endurance, four engines operating).
5. On overwater flights where no alternate is available, item 4 (holding fuel) will be increased to 2 hours at
maximum endurance, four engines operating, at 20,000 feet. Determine fuel from the maximum endurance
performance charts using the anticipated gross weight of the aircraft upon arrival at the holding fix.
7.6
ADDITIONAL OVERWATER REQUIREMENTS
On all overwater flights, time to ETP will be figured at flight-plan cruise altitude and 10,000 feet, on four engines,
and entered in the remarks section of the DD175. ETP is defined as the point (either in distance or time) at which
the aircraft will be required to spend the same amount of time continuing to destination or returning to its departure
point. Since it is obvious that depressurization is possible and descent to a lower altitude may be mandatory, the
distance for ETP should be computed at 10,000 feet of altitude. A TAS for ETP distance computations of 245 knots
is recommended, as this is the average TAS at 10,000 feet on four engines, long-range cruise.
The first reading after departure may fall above the maximum curve. This
may be caused by additional amounts of fuel used in an unexpected
departure climb or by stronger winds than were forecast for the first hour.
The maximum curve line is based on actual takeoff fuel. The actual-fuel-
used curve should fall below the maximum curve prior to reaching ETP.
If the actual-consumption curve falls above the maximum-consumption
curve two consecutive times prior to ETP, a return to the departure point
or a change of destination shall be accomplished.
ORIGINAL
7-4
01-75GAL-1
PSR will be figured for the directed mission profile(s). Generally PSR is a decision point along the planned route
of flight where a divert destination is achievable with the minimum required fuel reserve. PSR is based on actual
takeoff fuel.
7.7
FORMS
Standard navigational forms will be utilized on all flights. Flight clearance will normally be filed on military form
(DD175) but may be on the Federal Aviation Agency form USAFE Form 249 or on the International Civil Aviation
Organization form, as required. On overwater flights, the pilot should use standardized local/Navy flight plans and
range control logs.

CHAPTER 8
Inspections, Checklists, and Procedures
8.1
PREPARATION FOR FLIGHT
8.1.1 Aircraft Status Check
All crewmembers shall review previous discrepancies to ensure that the aircraft is safe for flight. The flight engineer
will ensure that the aircraft has been serviced with the required amount of fuel, oil, and oxygen for the assigned
mission. It is the responsibility of the aircraft commander to ensure that the inspections required by NAVAIR
01-75GAA-6-1 are completed. The aircrew inspections are based on the assumption that these inspections have been
completed. Therefore, duplicate inspections and system checks have been eliminated, except for items required in
the interest of safety.
8.1.2 Checklists
The aircraft commander is responsible for ensuring that all preflight checks are accomplished. The actual
accomplishment may be delegated as required. Starting with the Before Start Checklist, the remaining checklists
through the Secure Checklist in this section are of the challenge and response type. Only circled (
) items need to
be checked when taxiing back for takeoff after landing with all engines operating and crewmembers remaining at their
crew positions. The copilot reads the item in the checklist aloud as a challenge, and the response listed is given by
the crewmember indicated. When more than one crewmember has the same response to the same item, each
crewmember subsequent to the initial crewmember responding need respond only with the crew position. Before
answering the challenge that indicates a complete control panel, the responsible crewmember will check that all
switches and controls on the panel are in the positions indicated in the response. When the response is listed “as
required,” the crewmember will respond by stating the present operating status of the system. The codes: P, CP, FE,
LM, and 2LM stand for pilot, copilot, flight engineer, loadmaster, and second loadmaster, respectively.
8.1.2.1 Through-Flight Operations
When the aircraft is flown on the same mission and no maintenance or servicing is required, it is unnecessary for the
preflight checks to be performed after the first flight of the day. When maintenance or servicing is required, only those
items or systems affected need be checked prior to the next flight. The checklists have been designed so that, for
through-flight operation, the crew may begin with the Before Start Checklist to assure a safe flight.
