Utilize Runway Analysis Data For Safe Departures And Landings On Obstacle-Filled Runways

By Dora Reed


An aircraft that comes across certain situations such as weather problems, extreme altitudes, or other obstacles; will probably need a different plan. These aircrafts may need runway analysis to consider the situation and compare the aircraft's competencies to the runways status. In this procedure, the AFM performance and obstacle databases can alert the aircraft of the required limiting weight it requires.

Web-based analysis has been introduced by flight services all over the world for these exact reasons. The reports provide vital performance, runway, and airport information that all airport operations require for safe takeoff and landings. Operators of commercial, military, and corporate airlines can utilize this examination and reduce their operational costs in the process. The report is released in a digital format and analyzes all airports.

The analysis services are provided to the airline operators and allow them to understand all the runway calculations that they need. Data from worldwide airports, runways, and the various obstacles that occur are all also used when creating these reports. Additionally, the performance data of all individual aircrafts are also gathered to be analyzed. This information aids in giving airline operators the information they need on engine-out procedures such as engine loss.

This service has become the airline industry standard for discussing runway, airport, and aircraft performance information. Since it is web-based, the data is delivered quickly to optimize the operations. This analysis also aids in developing flight capabilities, which include takeoff and landing performance information.

The web-based service displays calculations in terms of the specific aircraft and runways at any time. It produces the specific temperature, wind speeds, and runway conditions of any airport or city in the world. Airline operators are able to easily calculate several different conditions using this service.

A detailed report of any obstacles on the runways will also be included, and provides departure procedures for any aircrafts involved. The pilots can use this information to climb to a specific altitude in case of engine loss. The calculations also allow operators to be informed of the specific maximum weight required for takeoff in any departure.

Aircrafts use their on board performance tools or electronic flight bag systems, known as EFBs, in order to access the data provided by this service. PACE, Teledyne, and standard XML formats on aircrafts can access all the information. The system updates monthly, or every 28 days, and is based on the AIRAC revision cycle.

Aircraft performance must adhere to the Standard Computerized Airplane Performance (SCAP) industry standards. The analysis system allows for departure and arrival performance examination, as well as the engine-out departure procedures. The information includes more than three thousand worldwide airports, and three hundred aircraft and engine combinations.

The analysis system still does require additional improvements. This includes integration of the flight plans and weight, as well as balance systems. This service isn't allowed for military aircraft operators unless they hold an export license. If you aren't sure of all the requirements, you can contact service providers for more information.
