NM per min formula
TAS/60
NM per radial formula
(Distance from NAVAID)/60 nm
At 120nm, how many nm are there per radial?
120nm/60rad =2 Nm/rad
At 60nm, how many nm are there per radial?
60nm/60rad =1 Nm/rad
At 30 nm, how many nm are there per radial?
30nm/60rad =0.5 Nm/rad
Radials per nm formula
Radials per nm = 60rad/distance from NAVAID
At 120nm, how many radials are there per nm?
60rad/120nm =0.5 rad/Nm
At 60nm, how many radials are there per nn?
60rad/60nm =1 rad/Nm
At 30 nm, how many radials are there per nm?
60rad/30nm =2 rad/Nm
Lead radial formulae
60/distance from NAVAID = radials per nm
OR
Radials per nm x turn distance
Descent Rate formula
Rate = nm/min x pitch change x (100ft/nm)
Descent rate formula (known gradient)
Rate = nm/min * gradient (in ft/nm)
IAS to TAS formula
TAS = FL/2 + 250
- Idk what FL is in this formula
Mach to TAS
TAS (nm/min) = Mach # x 10
Turn radius (range) formula
TR = (TAS/60) - 2
Lead Radial formula
LR = 60/arc DME * turn radius
