reed0427 Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 Were were talking on our forum and were wondering how does kACARS determine the landing rate? At touchdown the rate becomes zero, so is the rate determined at the moment of contact? One second prior? Two seconds? Is it an average of the last few seconds? And take off speed. Is it the IAS at the moment of liftoff? Just curious how these parameters are determined. Quote
freshJet Posted April 5, 2012 Report Posted April 5, 2012 Never really thought about it. It's basically the descent rate so it must be just before landing I guess. Quote
