Time, Fuel
And
Distance
To
Descend (Figure'
5-24)
Time,
fuel
and
distance to descend are determined
by
finding the
difference
between
the cruise
and
the landing airport conditions;
thus
two
calculations are required,
one
for the cruise condition
and
the second for the landing airport condition.
Cruise Condition:
(1)
Enter Figure
5-24
at
the cruise
altitude
of
9500
feet.
(2)
Proceed horizontally
right
to the guideline.
(3) Proceed
vertically
down
to obtain time to descend (19 minutes),
fuel to descend
(57
pounds)
and
distance to descend
(60
nauti-
cal miles).
Landing
Airport Condition:
(4) Enter Figure
5-24
at
the
airport
altitude
of
1700
feet.
(5)
Proceed horizontally
ri9ht
to the guideline.
(6)
Proceed
vertically
down
to obtain time to descend (3.4 minutes),
fuel to descend
(10
pounds)
and
distance to descend
(11
nauti-
cal miles).
