Take-off & Landing Performance

Will it fit the runway?

Get the pressure altitude, density altitude and wind component for the conditions, read the matching distance off your POH, then factor it and check it against the runway available.

A planning worksheet — NOT aircraft performance data. The pressure/density altitude and wind are computed exactly; the distance you enter must come from your own aircraft's POH/AFM chart, the only authoritative source. Declared distances (TORA/TODA/LDA) come from the AIP.

Read the still-air distance for the density altitude and wind above off your POH, choose your safety factor, and enter the declared distance from the AIP.
