    Study Notes

    Pavement and Turn Requirements

    • Minimum width of pavement required for a 180-degree turn is typically around 26 meters (85 feet) to accommodate large aircraft.

    Runway Specifications

    • Limits for runway slope are typically between -2% to +2% for optimal performance and safety during takeoff and landing.

    Tailwind Limits

    • Maximum tailwind for takeoff is generally limited to 10 knots to ensure adequate engine performance and safety.
    • Maximum tailwind for landing is usually restricted to 10 knots, depending on specific aircraft limitations and runway conditions.

    RVSM Airspace Regulations

    • Maximum speed limit for Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) airspace is 0.82 Mach to maintain safe vertical separation between aircraft.

    747-8F Operating Altitudes

    • Maximum operating altitude for the 747-8F is 43,000 feet, allowing for efficient long-haul flight capabilities.
    • Maximum takeoff and landing altitude for the 747-8F is 8,000 feet to ensure engine performance and safety margins.

    Aircraft Turning Radius

    • The wingtip of the aircraft sweeps through the largest turning radius when executing a turn, influencing ground maneuverability and handling during low-speed operations.
