 RESOURCES TO CALCULATE
PERFORMANCE : G-450

 Performance Computer

 Performance Hand Book

 AFM / AOM

 Operational Information Supplement

5
 PERFORMANCE COMPUTER

 FMS can handle almost all of takeoff data needs.

 Rated or flex data

 10° or 20° flaps

 Dry or wet surface conditions

 Variety of anti-ice combinations

 Obstacles Clearance or SID Climb Gradient requirement

FMS cannot handle contaminated runways

6
 WET / CONTAMINATED RUNWAY

 Wet Runway:
A runway is considered wet when it is well soaked (there is sufficient
moisture on the runway surface to cause it to appear reflective) but without
significant areas of standing water.

 Contaminated Runway:

The runway is considered contaminated when more than 25% of the runway
surface area (whether in isolated areas or not), within the required length
and width being used, is covered by surface water more than 0.125 inch (3
mm) deep, or by slush or loose snow equivalent to more than 0.125 inch (3
mm) of water.

7
 PERFORMANCE HAND BOOK

 The PH gives you contaminated runway data for

different depths of water, slush, and snow.

 This is not available in the Performance

Computer.

8
 AFM

 The AFM provides Performance Data

 Graphically (Section 5)
Tabular data (Appendix A)
 AFM Section 5 provides Performance Data
 Reduced takeoffs
Tailwinds
Wet runway.

The AFM does not consider contaminated runways.

 OPERATIONAL INFORMATION
SUPPLEMENT

 OIS-02 provides contaminated takeoff and

landing distance data.

PERFORMANCE DEFINITIONS

 PERFORMANCE DEFINITIONS

 Drag Index:

Drag index corrections are intended for special mission aircraft with a higher drag
level than the basic G450 commercial aircraft. Drag index values are presented
from 0 to 50 on all charts adversely impacted by additional drag. The Drag index
for the basic G450 aircraft is “0”, and therefore, there is no need to apply any drag
index corrections..

 V1, TAKEOFF DECISION SPEED:

The speed from which a decision to continue the takeoff results in a takeoff distance that
will not exceed the available accelerate-go distance, or from which a decision and action
to bring the airplane to a full stop will not exceed the accelerate-stop distance available. In
the event of an engine failure, this speed takes account of the pilot recognition and
reaction time of 1.0 seconds, including the pilot’s first action after recognizing the engine
failure. For an all-engine rejected takeoff, this is the speed at which the pilot performs his
first action to abort.
12
 PERFORMANCE DEFINITIONS

 VR, ROTATION SPEED:

Speed at which rotation to the takeoff attitude is initiated.

 V2, TAKEOFF SAFETY SPEED:

Target speed to be attained at the 35 foot height following an engine

failure.

13
 PERFORMANCE DEFINITIONS

 VSE, EN ROUTE CLIMB SPEED:

Recommended airspeed for single-engine climb in the en route

(clean) configuration.

 Vref:

The landing threshold speed for the selected landing configuration

and atmospheric conditions.

14
 PERFORMANCE DEFINITIONS

 EPR:

Ratio between pressure aft HP compressor and ambient air.

 Cruise Ceiling:

Altitude at which Aircraft climb capability reduces to 300 ft/min.

NBAA :

• The NBAA rules include the fuel required to fly from the
destination to the alternate plus 30 minutes of holding at
5,000 feet at the alternate. If the distance to the alternate
is less than 200 nm, 200nm is used.
