TAKEOFF DATA

All data needed for takeoff planning is presented in

this section. Takeoff data is presented for MIL and

MAX AB throttle settings. For the purpose of Part 2,

MIL thrust is called nonAB and MAX AB thrust is

called AB. All data is based on normal flap positions

(LEF's are at - 2 degrees and TEF's are at 20 degrees

down while weight is on the MLG). Rotation speed,

takeoff speed, ground run distance, acceleration

check speed, maximum refusal speed, and crosswind

data may be determined from these charts. Effects of

wind, temperature, pressure altitude, runway slope

and length, drag index, and RCR are included on

appropriate charts.

DEFINITIONS OF TERMS

Takeoff factor - A computed number which is a func

tion of engine thrust, temperature, and altitude. It is

used as a control parameter for most charts in this

section.

Rotation speed - Airspeed at which rotation to liftoff

attitude should be started.

Takeoff speed - Airspeed at which the main tires

leave the ground.

Takeoff ground run distance (also takeoff distance) -

Ground run in feet from brake release to takeoff

speed.

Refusal speed - Maximum airspeed that can be

attained and still stop on remaining runway should

takeoff be aborted.

Minimum AB blowout speed - Minimum airspeed at

which an AB blowout can occur and still reach takeoff

speed within the remaining runway length using

nonAB thrust.

Runway slope - Change in runway elevation divided

by runway length multiplied by 100 (expressed in per

cent uphill or downhill).

Aerodynamic braking (threepoint attitude) - Use of

fully opened speedbrakes and maximum horizontal

tail deflection (without raising nose tire from runway)

to increase deceleration. (Data base for aborted take

off.)

T.O. GR1F16CJ11

C22Change 7

Maximum effort braking - A single continuous wheel

brake application using maximum pedal pressure

consistent with maintaining directional control (anti

skid on) in conjunction with aerodynamic braking

and drag chute.

DATA BASIS FOR CHARTS

Estimated aerodynamic and propulsion data based

on wind tunnel and flight test results was used to gen

erate the information presented in this section.

Changes in LEF's positions and engine bleed require

ments for weight on or off LG have been accounted for,

as appropriate. Assumptions and approximations

made during the construction of each chart are dis

cussed along with the chart.

TAKEOFF PLANNING

Careful takeoff planning is essential from a stand

point of flight safety and mission success. Proper

planning will permit maximum use of the capability

of the aircraft to take off with heavy payloads while

maintaining adequate safety margins. Takeoff plan

ning comprises the following:

1.

Determine aircraft configuration (total air

craft takeoff GW and drag index).

2.

Obtain runway conditions for expected takeoff

time (pressure altitude, temperature, windspeed,

wind direction, length, slope, etc.).

3.

Compute appropriate data.

This information will permit decisions to be made

regarding downloading or continuing or aborting

takeoff in the event of an emergency. Each chart is

discussed in detail in the following paragraphs. An

example takeoff planning problem is worked in con

junction with the discussion. The following typical

aircraft and field information is normally obtained

before using the charts:

Takeoff GW (air

craft operating

weight plus fuel,

ammo, and stores)

= 33,000 pounds (Allow for

ground operation fuel con

sumption; refer to Part 3)

(Normal taxi operations

require approximately 25

pounds of fuel per minute)

Stores loading

TAKEOFF FACTOR

The takeoff factor concept of presenting takeoff per

formance is used to simplify chart presentations. The

takeoff factor is a computed number and is common

to all charts for a given thrust setting, pressure alti

tude, and temperature.

REFER TO FIGURE C21.

ceed horizontally to pressure altitude (B) and then
