This course covers the regulations and performance considerations for Performance Class B aircraft, focusing on both single‑engine and multi‑engine propeller‑driven airplanes with a maximum of nine passengers and a take‑off mass not exceeding 5 700 kg.

Students learn the key speed definitions—stall speeds (VS₀, VS₁), rotation speed (VR), take‑off safety speed (V₂min), and reference landing speed (VREF)—and how runway slope, wind, altitude, and aircraft mass affect take‑off and landing distances. The material explains flap settings, climb gradients, and the minimum control speed (VMCA) for engine‑failure scenarios, as well as the specific EU‑OPS and JAR‑OPS requirements for field‑length, climb, and missed‑approach performance.

This course covers the following topics:

  • PERFORMANCE CLASS B - SINGLE-ENGINE AEROPLANES
    Definitions of speeds used
    Effect of Variables on Single-Engine Aeroplane Performance
    Take-off and Landing
  • PERFORMANCE CLASS B - MULTI-ENGINE AEROPLANES
    Definitions of terms and speeds
    Effect of Variables on Multi-Engine Aeroplane Performance
