Description

Interface for the Runway Heading Options found in a Takeoff or Landing procedure.

Public Properties

Gets or sets the runway heading that the aircraft will use.

CoClasses that Implement IAgAvtrRunwayHeadingOptions

Name
AgAvtrRunwayHeadingOptions

Example

Add a takeoff procedure from a runway

[C#]

// Add a takeoff procedure with a runway as a site
IAgAvtrProcedureTakeoff takeoff = procedures.Add(AgEAvtrSiteType.eSiteRunway, AgEAvtrProcedureType.eProcTakeoff) as IAgAvtrProcedureTakeoff;

// Get the runway heading options
IAgAvtrRunwayHeadingOptions headingOptions = takeoff.RunwayHeadingOptions;
// Opt to use the headwind runway
headingOptions.RunwayMode = AgEAvtrRunwayHighLowEnd.eHeadwind;

// Set the takeoff mode and get that interface
takeoff.TakeoffMode = AgEAvtrTakeoffMode.eTakeoffNormal;
IAgAvtrTakeoffNormal takeoffNormal = takeoff.ModeAsNormal;

// Set the takeoff climb angle
takeoffNormal.TakeoffClimbAngle = 5;
// Set the departure altitude above the runway
takeoffNormal.DepartureAltitude = 600;
// Set the altitude offset for the runway
takeoffNormal.RunwayAltitudeOffset = 10;
// Use terrain for the runway's altitude
takeoffNormal.UseRunwayTerrain = true;

Add and configure a landing procedure

[C#]

// Add a landing procedure
IAgAvtrProcedureLanding landing = procedures.Add(AgEAvtrSiteType.eSiteRunway, AgEAvtrProcedureType.eProcLanding) as IAgAvtrProcedureLanding;

// Get the runway heading options
IAgAvtrRunwayHeadingOptions headingOptions = landing.RunwayHeadingOptions;
// Land from the low end
headingOptions.RunwayMode = AgEAvtrRunwayHighLowEnd.eLowEnd;

// Use a standard instrument approach
landing.ApproachMode = AgEAvtrApproachMode.eStandardInstrumentApproach;
// Get the options for a standard instrument approach
IAgAvtrLandingStandardInstrumentApproach sia = landing.ModeAsStandardInstrumentApproach;
// Change the approach altitude
sia.ApproachAltitude = 1000;
// Change the glideslope
sia.Glideslope = 4;
// Offset the runway altitude
sia.RunwayAltitudeOffset = 10;
// Use the terrain as an altitude reference for the runway
sia.UseRunwayTerrain = true;
