METEOROLOGICAL TERMINOLOGY
OAT Outside Air Temperature
is the free air static temperature expressed in
degrees Celsius (°C).
T
S
Standard Temperature is 15°C at sea level pressure altitude and
decreased by 2°C for each 1000 ft of altitude.
H
P
Pressure Altitude is the altitude read from an altimeter when the
barometric subscale has been set to 1013 mb.
ENGINE POWER TERMINOLOGY
RPM Revolutions Per Minute
: is the number of revolutions per minute of the
propeller, multiplied by 2.273 (912UL) or 2.4286 (912S) yields engine
RPM.
AIRPLANE PERFORMANCE AND FLIGHT PLANNING
TERMINOLOGY
Crosswind
Velocity
is the velocity of the crosswind component for which adequate
control of the airplane during takeoff and landing was actually
demonstrated.
Usable fuel is the fuel available for flight planning.
Unusable fuel e quantity of fuel that cannot be safely used in flight.
g is the acceleration of gravity.
TOR is the takeoff distance measured from actual start to wheel liftoff
point
TOD is total takeoff distance measured from start to 15m obstacle
clearing
GR is the distance measured during landing from actual touchdown to
stop point
LD is the distance measured during landing, from 15m obstacle clearing
to actual stop.
S/R is specific range, that is, the distance (in nautical miles) which can
be expected at a specific power setting and/or flight configuration
per kilo of fuel consumed
