A Basic Landing performance model is comprised of a simple set of parameters that define the flight characteristics of the aircraft during a landing.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Landing Speed | Defines the speed to which the aircraft decelerates during approach and while on the landing glideslope; select a reference from the drop-down menu - true airspeed (TAS), calibrated airspeed (CAS), equivalent airspeed (EAS), or Mach number. If the approach fix is too close and/or the speed at approach is too fast, the aircraft may not be able to achieve landing speed by the point of touchdown - a warning message will be displayed if this occurs. |
| Sea Level Ground Roll | Defines the distance the aircraft travels along the ground while decelerating to a stop at sea level. |
| Use Aero/Propulsion Fuel Flow | Select to use the fuel flow calculated by the aerodynamics and propulsion strategies defined in the active acceleration performance model; if the acceleration performance model is not set to calculate fuel flow, then fuel flow will not be calculated for this performance model, either. |
| Scale Fuel Flow by Non Std Density | Select to scale the fuel flow based on the aircraft's actual altitude. If this option is disabled, the fuel flow will be calculated at the Default Cruise Altitude (if available), or at sea level. |
| Fuel Flow | Defines the amount of fuel used per unit of time selected. |
