Provide the knowledge required to assess aircraft performance, determine limiting conditions, and apply certified performance data in operational planning.

Core Syllabus Areas

• General performance concepts and the stages of flight.
• Fundamental performance definitions and relationships affecting take-off, climb, cruise, descent, approach, and landing.
• Factors influencing performance, including mass, altitude, temperature, wind, runway condition, slope, and aircraft configuration.
• Performance Class B aeroplane performance for single-engine operations.
• Performance Class B aeroplane performance for multi-engine operations.
• Performance Class A aeroplane performance, including transport-category, CS-25-based performance concepts.
• Use of performance charts, manuals, tabulated data, and regulatory margins in dispatch and operational assessment.

Key Competencies

• Read and apply certified performance data correctly.
• Determine take-off and landing distance requirements under varying conditions.
• Assess climb capability, obstacle clearance, and limiting mass.
• Understand engine-out implications in multi-engine performance.
• Identify the performance-limiting factor for a given flight scenario.
