Aviation Formulas PDF

This document contains various aviation formulas related to flight planning, navigation, performance, and weather. Some key formulas include: - Distance = Ground speed x time, which calculates distance traveled based on speed and elapsed time. - Time = Distance / Speed, the inverse formula to calculate time given distance and speed. - Fuel consumed = Gallons per hour (GPH) x Time, to determine fuel burn during a flight. - Moment = Arm x Weight, relating the forces that produce rotation around an axis. - Bearing to/from a navigation aid is used to determine direction from points in flight. - Stall speed increases in turns based on bank angle, up to a 41% increase at

AVIATION FORMULAS

FORMULA

RTFQ2 = Read The F**** Question Twice !


Distance weight is shifted =
Weight to be shifted

Distance = Ground speed x time


Ground Speed = Distance / Time
Time = Distance / Speed
Fuel consumed = GPH x Time
GPH = Fuel Consumed / time
Time/Endurance = Fuel consumed / GPH
1mile/60miles = 1/60miles = x or miles/miles traveled
TAS = IAS x 2%/1000
Moment = Arm x Weight
Time to NDBminutes = Time in seconds
Degrees in relative bearing change
Time to VORminutes = Time in seconds
Number of radials Crossed
Distance to NDB(VOR)(nm) = Ground Speed x Time to NDB
60
Bearing to Station = Magnetic Heading + Relative Bearing
Bearing from the Station = BTS 180

(VOR)mins


VOR range(nm) = 1.23
DME Slant Range = DME distance2 - Altitude (in nm)2 = True Distance to DME2
Unknown Crosswind Limitation = 20% of Stall Speed
Lift = . p . v2 . s . cL , where p is air density, v is TAS, s is wing surface area, and
cL is coefficient of Lift
Stall speed increase in a turn - 30 = 1.07 x Vs

45 = 1.19 x Vs

60 = 1.41 x Vs

= Normal Stall speed x

Accelerate North Decelerate South, Underread North Overread South


100 rpm = 5KIAS = 100/min
Rate One Turn = 10% of IAS + 7(knots) = Angle of Bank
Rate One Turn = 10% of IAS + 5(mph) = Angle of Bank

Non rotating tire hydroplaning speed = 7.7 x


Rotating tire hydroplaning speed

= 9.0 x
