AIRPORT PLANNING MANUAL 3. AIRCRAFT PERFORMANCE 3.1. GENERALINFORMATION The performance of the aircraft and engine depends on the generation of forces by the interaction between the aircraft or engine, and the air mass through which it flies. The atmosphere has a pronounced effect on the temperature, pressure and density of the air. The ICAO establishes standard basics for estimating and comparing aircraft and engine performance. Some ICAO standard basics are shown below: 1. Sea level standard day: Standard Temperature To = 15 °C (288.15 K) Standard Pressure Po = 101.3 kPa (29.92 inHg) Standard Density ρo = 0.002377 slug per cubic feet 2.

NOTE: For further information about performance, refer to AOM and AFM. Tire speed limits are not applicable to this specific aircraft. This section provides the following information: • The payload x range charts • The takeoff field length charts • The landing field length charts NOTE: For other charts containing payload x ranges, takeoff field lengths and/or landing field lengths with conditions different from those presented in this section, Embraer should be contacted so that these charts can be obtained.
