I went to http://kiltmchaggis.com/tikiwiki1/tiki-index.php?page=Aircraft and found a chart, but I didn’t know what some of the columns were.
Which ones don’t you understand?
I’ll assume you know the obvious ones (length, wind, max knots, ceiling etc are in regards to the aircrafts dimensions and operating capabilities)
ICAO - Is the code designated by the ICAO https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ICAO_aircraft_type_designators
OEW - ‘Operating Empty Weight’ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operating_empty_weight
MTOW - ‘Maximum Takeoff Weight’ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_takeoff_weight
I think they are as follows:
Aircraft: (obvious)
ICAO: Aircraft wake turbulence category according to the ICAO
Length: Well… the length in meters
Wing: Wingspan in meters
Max Knots: Max speed in knots
Ceiling: Max altitude in feet
OEW: Operating empty weight
MTOW: Maximum takeoff weight
Range: How far it’ll go on a tank of fuel (miles)
Max Seats: Max number of seats with various configurations
Cargo: (Not sure how this one is measured)
T-off: Length of runway required for take-off (this is a guess)
Land: Length of runway required for landing (also a guess)
Land Speed: Obvious
@Aernout or @Pilothodge80 - can you help out?
Nailed it sir!
Cargo will be the cargo capacity in m3.
Guessing those will be a rule of thumb rather than actual figures, with all the variables that are used to calculate the actual length of runway , V1, V2, landing speed, and length of runway etc.
