HOW TO RECORD IN-FLIGHT PARAMETERS
2. REQUIRED OBSERVED DATA
The data that is required for further analysis is given below. Each observed data set is like a snapshot of aircraft condition. As many records as possible should be obtained so as to increase the statistical adequacy of performance analysis.
Parameter Unit Comments
Aircraft Tail Number (–)
Date YYMMDD
Flight Number (–)
Flight Case or DMU recording time 1-99 Number of data of a same flight. If no value is set, the program sets a "1".
hhmm Time at which the performance point was taken in flight.
Engine serial numbers (–)
Altitude (ft) From the two air data computers (ADC)
Mach number (–) From the two air data computers (ADC)
Total Air Temperature (°C) From the two air data computers (ADC)
Aircraft mass (weight) (kg or lb)
Center of Gravity (%)
Flight Path Acceleration (g) Horizontal acceleration measured in g.
Vertical Velocity (ft/min) Vertical acceleration
True Heading (°) Optional -used only if gravity correction activated.
Latitude (°) Optional -used only if gravity correction activated.
Wind speed (kt) Optional -used only if gravity correction activated.
Wind direction (°) Optional -used only if gravity correction activated
Average fuel temperature (°C) NOT ACTIVE
Average fuel density (l/kg) NOT ACTIVE
N1 -Power setting EPR - Power Setting (%) (–) Depends on engine type EPR for IAE, RR and P&W engines, N1 for GE and CFM engines.
Actual fuel flow (kg/h, lb/h) Fuel flow for each engine (FFA1, FFA2, ...)
Exhaust gas temperature (°C) To be set for each engine (EGT1, EGT2, ...)
Fuel lower heating value (BTU/lb)
Engine bleed flow (left) (kg/s or lb/s) Engine 1 flow (twin engine A/C) or sum of engines 1 and 2 (4 engine-aircraft)
