AVIA101 Lecture Notes - Lecture 17: Wind Shear, Wake Turbulence, G-Force
Document Summary
Need back pressure in a turn so you don"t lose altitude. 15 degrees is max for a climbing turn, this is because the plane has an overbanking tendency. Load factor increases with angle of back (60 degree bank = lf of 2: 1/(cos angle of bank, sqrt. Vortices begin when lift is created and stop when lift is 0. Aircraft in a vortex can roll at up to 80 degrees . Vortices move outward and downward at ~5 kts. Worst config = high gross weight, slow speed, clean configuration. Delay takeoff for 2-4 mins if a large jet just takes off before. If a jet is inbound for landing on final leg and is 2600ft while you are 2100, ask atc if you can climb up. 500 feet so you can touch down past where the jet touches down. Land after the touchdown point of the air craft o. Can cause violent rolling of the ground and pushes it down.
