If the aircraft mass in a horizontal unaccelerated flight decreases ? Session > helipad The minimum drag decreases the ias minimum drag decreases. with less mass you need less lift ==> less lift = less induced drag induced drag will decrease displacing total drag curve downwards to left ias minimum drag (vmd velocity minimum drag) decreases. Density altitude is the ? Density altitude the Pressure altitude corrected 'non standar temperature. density altitude pressure altitude adjusted non standard temperature if you fly from any air mass into a colder air mass maintain a constant indicated altitude (read on your altimeter) you are going to fly at a lower true altitude therefore it stands to reason that when flying at a constant true altitude from higher to lower temperature indicated altitude on altimeter will over read example an aircraft flying at 5000 ft indicated altitude where oat = +5°c (equal to isa at this altitude) will have a true altitude of 5000 ft the aircraft then flies into an area where oat = 5°c (isa 10°c) maintaining an indicated altitude of 5000 ft will produce a true altitude of 4800 ft (4 ft x 5000/1000 x 10 = 200 ft) if aircraft was to maintain a true altitude of 5000 ft altimeter would indicate 5200 ft therefore altimeter now over reading 200 ft. The Density Altitude ? The density altitude Is used to determine aeroplane performance. density altitude pressure altitude adjusted non standard temperature if you fly from any air mass into a colder air mass maintain a constant indicated altitude (read on your altimeter) you are going to fly at a lower true altitude therefore it stands to reason that when flying at a constant true altitude from higher to lower temperature indicated altitude on altimeter will over read example an aircraft flying at 5000 ft indicated altitude where oat = +5°c (equal to isa at this altitude) will have a true altitude of 5000 ft the aircraft then flies into an area where oat = 5°c (isa 10°c) maintaining an indicated altitude of 5000 ft will produce a true altitude of 4800 ft (4 ft x 5000/1000 x 10 = 200 ft) if aircraft was to maintain a true altitude of 5000 ft altimeter would indicate 5200 ft therefore altimeter now over reading 200 ft. Which of following combinations adversely affects take off and initial climb performance High temperature high relative humidity. Adding water vapour to air makes it less dense because molecular weight lower (dry air 29 water vapour 18) with low temperatures humidity less of a problem because cold air holds less vapour high temperatures expand air it becomes thinner thinner air less dense thus high temperature high relative humidity will adversely affect take off initial climb performance.

Question 73-26 If other factors are unchanged fuel mileage nautical miles per kg Lower with a forward centre of gravity position. with a forward cg aircraft 'nose heavy' it has a nose down moment thus downforce on tail on a steady flight must increase the total aircraft weight increases therefore more weight = more drag = more power the fuel mileage (nautical miles per kg) lower with a forward centre of gravity position example with a aft cg fuel mileage = 10 nm 100 kg with a forward cg fuel mileage = only 8 nm 100 kg.
