Average Flight Path Determination

This document contains a table listing average flight path details such as distance, height, bank angle, and speed for 25 segments of a flight. It also provides an example of how to use the data in the table to determine the turn radius required at a certain point in the flight. The table provides guidelines for aircraft height, bank angle, and speed at different distances along the flight path.

Note.— The speed shall not be higher than the maximum speed as indicated in Table I-4-1-1 and I-4-1-2.
Example:

Applicable data:
1 — Altitude aerodrome: 715 m (2 346 ft) MSL
2 — Required turn after 31.5 km (17 NM) track-miles flown

Find from the table:


1 — Assumed height aircraft: 2 204 m (7 229 ft) above field elevation
2 — Bank angle 25q
3 — Speed: 498 km/h (269 kt) IAS

Calculate turn radius:


1 — Altitude aircraft is 715 m (2 346 ft) (aerodrome elevation) + 2 204 m (7 229 ft) (height aircraft) = 2 919 m (9 575 ft) MSL
2 — TAS conversion factor (Section 2, Appendix to Chapter 1) rounded up to 10 000 ft: 1.1958
3 — TAS: 498 km/h (269 kt) × 1.1958 = 596 km/h (322 kt)
4 — Turn radius average flight path 6.00 km (3.24 NM) (refer to Section 2, Chapter 3, paragraph 2, “radius of turn”).
