Protecting Airplanes From Wind Shear
Abstract
Improvements in flightpath displays help pilots avoid crashes in downbursts. Report presents computer-simulated response of large transport aircraft to downbursts of wind during takeoffs and landings. Simulation clearly demonstrates benefits of increased available energy in form of initial speed, initial altitude, or higher thrust-to-weight ratio.
