Problem 13 [Marks 1.5]

The take-off speed of a Boeing 737-800 airline is 295 km/h and it takes 30 s to take off at sea

level. A new airport is proposed at an altitude of 3,000 m above sea level and the total

available length for airport runway is 1,500 m. Determine the following:

a) Take-off speed (km/h) of the aircraft at the new proposed airport.

b) Take-off time (s) of the aircraft at the new proposed airport.

c) Total runway lengths (m) required at sea level and at the new proposed airport.

d) Is the length adequate to have airfield at this new place?
