Since launching in 2018, OpenSky has offered its customers the freedom of fractional fleet ownership while traveling on aircraft that can operate on shorter runways, enabling them to avoid Japans larger airports. It is famed for its short runway capabilities and is certified for operations on grass, gravel, dirt and snow.

Among the performance elements are takeoff and landing distances, rate of climb, ceiling, speed, payload, and fuel economy. What is the headwind component for a landing on Runway 18 if the tower reports the wind as 215° at 30 knots? 187 knots 162 knots 165 knots Correct! What is ground effect?

The average cruising speed of a private jet at a higher altitude is around 500-600 mph — or 434-521 knots — and some can reach speeds of up to 700 mph or, rather, 608 knots. Here are a few reasons why private jets are faster: Reduced payload: Light private aircraft are smaller to accommodate fewer travelers per flight.

As it does, one aircraft is seeking to capture a particular slice of the advanced air mobility market, one that none of its rivals can challenge – that is, the provision of electric flights for seven people flying at up to 250 knots (450kph) and with a stage length of around 500 miles (800km). For landing, it can use a conventional runway.

I also departed with the minimum amount of fuel I was comfortable with (airlines use this strategy to increase performance and/or increase payload capacity). I configured the airplane the same way as noted on the Piper Climb chart: 105 mph (91 knots), flaps 10 ° , full throttle. After 50 minutes, we were taxiing to the runway.

Unveiled in January, the UAS has a massive 400-pound payload and 70 cubic feet of cargo volume, far larger than what is seen on a typical delivery drone. It has a length of about 22 feet and a 38-foot wingspan, with a range of up to 200 miles and cruise speed of 60-70 knots.

In maybe 50 seconds we went from about 400 knots and reached the advertised top speed of Mach 2.34, and the jet was still accelerating. Known as the Flogger, the MiG-23s variable wing sweep makes it capable of taking off from short, remote runways, as well as optimizing its aerodynamic profile for supersonic or cruise flight.
