COCKPIT REFERENCE CARD FOR MY JET RISK MANAGEMENT FOR JET FLYING

Aircraft Weights

Basic Operating Weight

Aircraft empty weight plus crew, crew baggage, charts, etc

everything needed to legallyfly the airplane except payload and fuel

Maximum Zero Fuel Weight

Maximum Gross Takeoff Weight

Maximum Landing Weight

Converting Pounds to Gallons

Multiply pounds by .15(Take 10% of the weight in pounds, then add 50%)

1000 pounds = 150 gallons

Fuel Consumption

First HourSecond Hour

Third HourAdditional hours

Flight to a 100 nm alternate

45 min. hold at 5,000 ft.

Power Settings

250 knots at 10,000 ft., clean configuration

200 knots at 10,000 ft., clean configuration

Circling at 140 knots, approach configuration

ILS approach on glideslope in landing configuration

3,000 ft. per minute descent at cruise speed

Descent Planning

Multiply the altitude to lose, in thousands, by threeStart down that many miles out from your destination

Example:

You need to lose 35,000 feet Multiply 35 times 3, which is 105 Begin your descent 105 miles out from your destination
